Chill, Hip-Hop, Rap, RnB | Jetpack Jones – That Blow ft. Robby Ra$hu (Prod. by Beemo)
Posted by J_Salzer on April 7, 2013
FNT favorite, Jetpack Jones, unleashes his newest single on the interwebs today. My internet was being spotty(shout out to Bright House customer care on Twitter) and I couldn’t listen to the song for about 3 hours. When I finally realized I should download it instead of trying to stream it, I was hit with a sense of euphoria as I listened to the track for the first time. Jetpack often sends me music and claims it’s his best work to date, I’ve grown accustomed to hearing the same sound from him. That is by no means a bad thing, as I enjoy his sound immensely, but this song has changed my view entirely. That Blow does have the same Jetpack feel I’ve come to know, along with the extraterrestrial-type beat he so often paints his pictures over, but it also features the best lyrics I’ve ever heard from the Lakewood rapper. Stream and download the track below and check out Jetpack on Facebook and Twitter.
Pop, Videos | Con Bro Chill – Dance Thief
Posted by J_Salzer on April 4, 2013
These guys are absolutely insane. I know nothing about them, and I had never heard of them until Max from Aer’s camp introduced me, but their music is addictive. The video is hilarious, and the music is great. You can tell that these guys are having the time of their lives, and it makes listening to their music that much better. The beat is a dance infused, radio ready, banger, and the lead singers vocals remind me of an alternative rock singer from the 2000’s. Grab their latest album on iTunes here, and keep up with them on Twitter and Facebook.
Hip-Hop, Rap, RnB | Sol – Dope (Prod. by the Zillas)
Posted by J_Salzer on April 1, 2013
Sol is back. After a long hiatus traveling the world, Sol returns to the states this month. If this is any hint of what 10 months off from music does for him, I’d like to see him take 20. Just kidding, I couldn’t go that long with out Sol. The production duo The Zillas handles the production, and they flip the beat at around 3:11 and Sol kills it again. It’s like Sol never missed a beat(no pun intended), he’s picking up right where he left off, but better. Judging off this track his flow has become more polished and his lyrics have become sharper. Stream the track below and be on the lookout for more Sol coming soon.
Hip-Hop, Rap, Videos | Salomon Faye & Enasni Leber – Fool’s Gold
Posted by J_Salzer on April 1, 2013
When I received a musical submission from my necklace making brother, Charlie Hudson, I was a bit skeptical. The guy does make some nice necklaces, but what does he know about music? Well, apparently he knows a lot. A week after receiving his initial email, I’ve finally gotten around to listening to it. From the first 5 seconds, I knew I’d love it. I’m addicted to old school samples, and that’s what originally drew me in. But what made me hit the replay button four (4!) times were the verses from Salomon Faye and Ensani Leber. I had never heard of THEillUZiON movement up until last week, but it’s something I will be quickly educating myself on. Check out Salomon on twitter here, and Ensani here.
RnB, Videos | Ciara – Body Party (Rendition) by SoMo
Posted by J_Salzer on April 1, 2013
Every Sunday, I have a new favorite SoMo song. I’m only as good as my recent listen when it comes to the Texas native. I fall in love with whatever he touches. He has an incredible way of making smooth, soulful covers that are drenched in emotion. I’m not going to pretend like I’m a huge Ciara fan, but I am a huge SoMo fan, so I enjoy listening to this one more than the original. SoMo has found his niche, and he will continue to kill it because there is an endless amount of music for him to cover. I just can’t wait to hear some of his original stuff..
Albums, Hip-Hop, Videos | Sam Lachow Presents: Young Seattle Part 2
Posted by J_Salzer on April 1, 2013
Seattle has one of the hottest hip-hop scenes in the country. All of the sounds that come from there are unique, and the various artists featured on Sam Lachow’s Young Seattle are no different. The video itself is cool, and is filmed almost like a cypher. My favorite verse is probably the second, as Gift Uh Gab absolutely kills it. The verse by Sam’s partner in crime, Raz Simone, is also a work of beauty. Even though there are so many different types of rap featured in this video, it’s good to see that they can all mesh and all support each other. Check out the video above and download the track for free here.
