Hip-Hop | Grieves – Against The Bottom
Posted by BIGLIFE on July 31, 2011
You know what I like about this guy? He doesn’t rap for the girls, he raps for himself. Sure, the video might include a hot girl or two (definitely not three that’s for sure) but you still catch him running down the street three guys deep in a flannel and skinny jeans. There’s something to be said for that – this is exactly what I mean about visuals providing that extra insight that heightens your understanding and appreciation for the music. Ben aka Grieves delivers real hip hop. Originally born in Chicago, Grieves later moved to a few other locations, providing him with a multitude of influences including the alternative sound he blends in with his rap. It reminds me a little of the lost art that fellow Chi-town artist, Rhymefest, tends to bring to the table (ps. do yourself a favor and watch Rhymefest “One Hand Pushup” video after the jump aka click MORE bc its gnarly). Maybe he’s more like Em in Stan, you be the judge…Take a leap of faith and give Grieves an ear.

Hip-Hop, Mixtapes | M. Will The Shogun- Northern Lights Mixtape
Posted by ATexas on July 31, 2011
M. Will The Shogun’s new album. No, he’s not a rapping, but producing and doing a damn good job at it. M. Will the Shogun is, according to rumors, producing Mac Miller’s new album. Can’t wait. Anyways its a lot of trip-hop,a side of etherealness and dope verbal slams. Not a good source for body bangers, but a lot of chill music that’s good to end the night on. It is the musical equal to the cool down of a workout even though it is a hot as hell(and possibly Texas) mixtape. GDPN brings me back to Zion I’s glory days, om nom nom delicious. “Megustas” is just amazingly produced, I honestly cannot get enough of it and its rawness of the lyrics and the vocals. That might be a personal thing. And of course, Whatever, which has been dropped for a couple days is dope as Mac always is. Northern Lights features a mixture of artists including Termanology and NERO.

Hip-Hop | Phil Adé-A Different World
Posted by ATexas on July 30, 2011
For my first official post I thought I’d throw down some Phil Adé. “Different World”, the track, brings me back to early Cudi (before he made our ears bleed with Mr. Rager). It’s loaded with a muted drum smash and a filter keeping the beat low-key. Not the best production choices, but has an absolute dope verbal assault for those of you who listen to rap for the verses. On the other hand, “Incense” is the epitome of chill music with Mac Miller laying down the hook in his traditional fashion. For all you who have entered the millennium and have an Apple computer, I suggest to play this song, press Command + T and zone out hardcore. Can you say visualizer? “Monte Carlo,” well, on the FNT chat board there has been a lot of hate ergo I thought I’d just post one more hip hop song. Monte Carlo is a dope song, sweet hook, catchy but not annoying.
Slash kind of wanted to win those damn festival tickets, but I assume since its official now that I’m posting I guess I’m out of contest eligibility. Rough life of a college girl.
