Had to throw this up since these are two of the nicest in NYC right now, although I do think they can cook up something better than this in the future.

This one dropped last summer but I had to shine some light on it cause I feel it went under the radar of most heads. Probably one of the best all around albums from last year..don't sleep!

Fake I.D. feat Q-Tip, Large Professor & Havoc (Mobb Deep).mp3
Don't underestimate this highly acclaimed individual. Consequence is non the less a good impression on the game and a true emcee for the most part. From features with Kanye West before/after he was a somebody to features with A Tribe Called Quest.

Self titled being the vet he is in the game I was impressed and mildly surprised to get this linked to me. I'm glad to see him active and Kool G Rap has never been more alive with his presence. It's deserves a listen!
Download after you hit play to the right and big up to the artist up there "Promise" repping Toronto on his track on the playlist below. Check the chat box to the right for any suggestions or questions for us.
Murs teams up with frequent Snoop collaborator and fellow California resident Terrace Martin for this one. I'll be honest after the last couple efforts for Murs I haven't been checking for him too hard but this has some joints. Melrose will probably go over the head of alot of Murs' core fanbase, but as he says on the title track the lyrics are taking a backseat here for that feel-good vibe..too bad it's -10 degrees here in Toronto..this makes me want to book the next flight to anywhere warm.
In honor of James Yancey's passing 5 years ago today, here's two new joints over his beats..be sure to check out that documentary posted the other day..R.I.P.

As a weed carrier for one of the biggest artists in the world, it's surprising GLC's album didn't get more shine than it did last year. I mean, how can you not respect a dude who says hes on the grind like Black & Decker and against the grain like sunchips over a cheesed out Manfred Mann sample? For real though, this album has enough jams that it shouldn't go ignored..and lets be honest it's probably the best material you'll ever hear from Gangsta L. Crisis.
Clockin' Lots of Dollaz (Feat. Bun B & Sir Mix-a-Lot)
Phontigga (Of Little Brother/ Foreign Exchange) recently released a ton of joints from the vaults via his SwiftFM..here's the picks of the litter:
