Hip-Hop | Jazz Cartier- Jet Plane

Posted by on February 27, 2012


Balancing a budding rap career and school is no easy task. Just ask the enigmatic Jazz Cartier, a Toronto native who is an amalgam of boarding school life and nostalgic Texas rap culture made popular by the late DJ Screw.

Building on his freshman project, “Losing Elizabeth”, Jazz comes off a brief hiatus to drop what presumably serves as a teaser for his upcoming “Marauding in Paradise” mixtape. Sampling Angus and Julia Stone’s “Big Jet Plane”, the track features production from Michael Lantz and details the rise and fall of a romantic relationship. He raps contemplatively, “The only girl that wants to study while her friends go and party/a plain jane think about you when it rains/I take it with a grain/and meet you on the plane.” Omitting a third and final verse, Jazz leaves the listener in suspense craving a resolution to the romantic encounter. It seems we’ll have to wait until “Marauding In Paradise” to find out how the story ends. In the mean time, be sure to follow Jazz on Twitter here. Life’s a wheel of fortune, and Jazz Cartier plans to spin it.

Dubstep, Electro, House, Review | Feed Me – Feed Me’s Escape From Electric Mountain EP

Posted by on February 7, 2012

Feed Me dropped this killer EP yesterday, and I have literally had the entire thing on repeat since. Feed Me AKA Spor has had an insane career so far. As Spor, Feed Me was one of the most legendary artists in drum & bass and is still considered so. He created Feed Me, the green critter above as a new persona with the goal of creating crazy sounding dance tunes out of electo, house, and dubstep beats mainly. Though he still does some work in drum & bass as Spor, Feed Me seems to understand that his new persona is now his main one, and will surely continue to drop insane works such as this one.

As I said before Feed Me’s goal has been to create great dance tracks, and that greatly reflects on this EP, even on the dubstep tracks. Trapdoor which was the first track off this EP that we were teased with, has a sick vocal and dubstep blend. Relocation is the first time I have really ever heard Feed Me create a very strong uplifting house track, shows that the man does not wish to settle on one style of music. One Click Headshot is a laugh for anyone who has seen the youtube video that is sampled on the track, and once it drops….BOOM HEADSHOT! I get the feeling that on Embers, Feed Me had some guidance from Deadmau5 with the use of the chords, the track itself is built perfectly, too bad we never got a preview of it before the release. Trichitillomania (mouthful of a name) I have a feeling was meant for the sole purpose of being remixed, considering how basic sounding of an instrumental track it is until the drop at 4:30. Last is the greatly anticipated dubstep collaboration between Feed Me & Gemini, Whiskers. Gemini’s style is very smooth, melodic, and almost trance like, but that blended with the raunchy styling of Feed Me leaves us with one dope finale to the EP. Happy listenings.

Hip-Hop, Rap | Kid Daytona f. Melanie Fiona – Love Is Love

Posted by on December 13, 2011

Kid Daytona recruits R&B singer Melanie Fiona to supply the hook for his latest leak off his upcoming project Interlude II. Love Is Love is chill hip hop song with an extremely smooth hook. The Interlude II drops next Monday (12/19).

For those of you who haven’t heard of Kid Daytona yet he’s from The Bronx and has dropped three projects in his short career. Never settling for just good enough, 2010 saw The Kid Daytona align his potential with the cutting edge fashions of the popular clothing company L-R-G. No bigger payoff came as they collaborated on Daytona’s best release to date, “The Interlude LP.” As a disciple of Hip-Hop’s rich and sacred culture, Daytona felt like it was time to give fans hungry for more beef than broth “a break from what had become the norm.” Taking subtle interludes from storied albums from the likes of Kanye West, Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Quest and Dr. Dre. Download his previous project, The Interlude.

[do action=”youtube” videoid=”CuQbHvPjcBw”/]

Ok, this is something that needs to be discussed.  This is not the first time we’ve seen Justin Bieber go in.  While some people are fretting over the 20-year old broad’s claims that she got Bieber’s seed, the young floppy haired pop star is spitting flames on live radio and more importantly, impressing the shit out of people.  So my question to you is, can Justin Bieber really rap and will he have a career in hip-hop? Sound off in the comments section!

Hip-Hop | YONAS – Can’t Knock Me Down (Freestyle)

Posted by on October 27, 2011

YONAS is one full time baller.  He’s one of the most consistent, yet under looked and under appreciated artists in the game.  He constantly deliver’s quality and truth in his music.  Here’s the latest release from the Bronx MC, who gives us a freestyle to “Can’t Know Me Down”.  That’s really the approach YONAS has taken so far in his career and life certainly will never be the same for this kid.  Earlier this week he dropped a teaser to the video he recently shot for his remix to “Pumped Up Kicks”, which is tougher than any remix I’ve heard to date.  Be sure to stay tuned in to YONAS and I’ll be sure to share the video as soon as it drops.
