What an exciting day for the culture indeed! The last time I coveted this artist was his 2024 project ‘Strapped’ back then featuring Fredro Starr on the production, but now in his first album entry for the year, he’s accompanied by producer Body Bag Ben, a man who has done more than his fair shareContinue reading “(Thousand Yard Stare)”

(Music Up In Here)
I know it’s been a minute and a half since I last covered Taiaha’s music. But every time I revisit his albums, I forget just how magical his vibe is. He’s unlike any artist I’ve ever heard before or since. Whatever mana he carries with him into the studio is definitely one of a kind,Continue reading “(Music Up In Here)”
(Face/Off 2)
Let me tell you off the bat this is an idea I pitched to either Philth or Q Rap one of the boys about an album where they rap off against each other in a beat tape version of a thriller film! Turns out that was already a thing just with a different guy! So,Continue reading “(Face/Off 2)”
(The ESP Tape)
I’ll tell you now, if Hip Hop had bingo cards, then this would definitely not be on it. After his 2024 drop with Crotona P, we haven’t heard from Mike until now, and boy, what a way to start the new year! Let’s talk about it! So, this album features the rapping of Mike TitanContinue reading “(The ESP Tape)”

This 8-track project is a collaborative effort between rapper ‘Breeze Mantana’ and producer ‘Trox’, and on this project, they feature -100GrandRoyce -Maze Overlay -MarcusContinue reading “(Acquired Taste)”
(MegaFoul)
Sometimes, I like to travel back in time and discover how certain artists sounded with their first releases, see how they’ve evolved since, and how far they’ve come. Today I have the opportunity to go back to the first EP by Umbrella Collective’s Kingpin Pro Dillinger and his project with producer Megaladon. This was releasedContinue reading “(MegaFoul)”
(The Sho Gun 2)
Lo Gun, the Sho Gun. He’s back with a brand-new sequel that is set to shake the game up and be considered one of the best releases of the year, no doubt! This new project is 12 songs deep with a range of different Sonic Samurai on deck, such as: Producers -Hanzo Bladez -DJ GoblinContinue reading “(The Sho Gun 2)”
(Seppuku)
Is it just me, or is there a flood of ‘Samurai’-themed albums in 2025? I swear I’ve seen tons of them. Do I dare complain? Definitely not! A theme that can never get old and always seems to maintain quality when associated, and this album is no exception! Let’s talk about it! This is theContinue reading “(Seppuku)”
(March Madness)
As we come towards the end of March. It seems only fitting that we end the month with a BANG, and who makes a bigger bang in the industry than my main man Nam Nitty? The man who deserved an ‘X rating’ on all these records and the man who time after time with hisContinue reading “(March Madness)”
(Did You Enjoy Your Time Here?)
One half of the underground duo ‘ShrapKnel’ featuring Curly Castro and a man who has spent more than his fair share of years building his name up as one of the best MC’s working today. This time Premrock is back with a brand new 16-track feature album that is set as not only another creativeContinue reading “(Did You Enjoy Your Time Here?)”
