Produced by Khrysis

A different sound from Junk Science..I'm a sucker for these Atari sounding beats.

So I've had more time recently to check out some music that has been buzzin' on the blogs and shit. If you live in Toronto and follow hip hop closely, chances are you've heard this kids name and previewed some of his tracks already. Of the few things I heard (which I checked out based on the production and features), I appreciated the vibe but couldn't help but categorize JR Mint as a Mac Miller clone of the frat rap variety. However, the more I saw his mixtape cover over the internets (that shit looks quality) and watched some of his youtube clips (including this battle with KOTD's Organik), you have to respect his grustle. Check the tape out for yourself..there's Canadian talent all over it. I'm going to reserve further judgement until I see him open for Big K.R.I.T on the 27th. Download after the jump.

Smoke Out (Prod. MoSS)


Talk 2 U (Prod. Rich Kidd)


Brand Name (Prod. M Phazes)

If you watched any of this young whippersnapper's videos, you already know what to expect. Bass heavy beats and clever street rhymes. Boldy rides solo for most of the tape, but production comes in flavas from Exile, Chuck Inglish of The Cool Kids, and Don Cannon. On top of having a long-ass name, this is easily one of the dopest tapes of 2011, and Boldy is another Detroit MC to look out for in the future.

Dice Game (Prod. By Brains)


Drops Of Rain (Feat Sir Michael Rocks)(Prod. Tye Hill)


Home Invasion (Prod. By Brains)

You may have heard 'Is It a Dream (Feat. Budden x Kweli x Sean Price)' and 'These Streets (Feat. Max B x Red Cafe x Quan)' in a previous playlist. It's hard to find any info on Doc Ish as a producer, even as a VMA winner for producing Eminem's 'We Made You'. This album was pretty slept on despite having a shit ton of features..I could only find one review online. Check out some of the other standout cuts below and hit the jump for more info.

Hi Kidz (Feat. Joell Ortiz)


No Goodbyes (Feat. Apollo Swyf and B. Burroughs)


U Like, They Like (Feat. Sam Adams)

Off the excellent mixtape The Original Dom Kennedy.
