Hip-Hop | Mark Hardy & Yung Rudd – Dotish (Otis Remix)
Posted by GMONEY on September 7, 2011
One of the reasons why I am so enamored by the Mark Hardy musical movement, is the fact that everything that Hardy puts out seems to have a unique story behind it. His latest release, Dotish, featuring fellow Trini artist Yung Rudd, is no different. Here’s what Hardy had to say about this release:
Dotish is Trinidadian word which means ‘dumb’ or ‘stupid’ so I kinda changed the meaning and turned a negative word into something positive. My meaning for “Dotish” is (Don’t Over Think Instead Strive Harder) and its dedicated to everyone out there who is following their dreams and doing what their love no matter how people try to hold them back and tell them how ‘dumb’ or ‘dotish’ they are for doing so.

Hip-Hop | Smokey Robotic ft. Eek-A-Mouse – Moonpot
Posted by Jess on August 17, 2011
Fresh off the release of their The Shark & The Helicopter LP, Smokey Robotic is back with a brand new offering with a feature that you wouldn’t expect. It is none other than the one and only Eek-A-Mouse, the Reggae legend from Kingston, Jamaica. His past hits include “Ganja Smuggling”, “Bitty Bong”, and “Juicy Juicy Weedy Weedy”, all of which deal with a very similar subject matter. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that this song does as well. Roll one up and light it to this exclusive premiere of Smokey Robotic and Eek-A-Mouse’s “Moonpot.”

Hip-Hop | Knokz – Walkin On The Moon x Kush & Pain
Posted by GMONEY on August 12, 2011
According to his bio, Massachussetts native Knokz, has always had a passion for music. His mother and grandmother were singers who introduced him to the art at a very young age. The style of music that Knokz creates is a variation of Hip Hop, Pop to Indie Rock. What I really like about Knokz is the sense of “realness” to his rhymes and subject matter.

This beat goes HARD. Drop it low.

Jim Jones could just say ayo, ayo the whole time and it wouldn’t matter because this beat goes ham.

Hot box and chill music.

Dubstep | Torqux & Twist, Flyte One, and RHYNO

The dynamic duo of dubstep dropped this heater no more than a week ago. The drop is ridiculous, but this track doesn’t top the Sunlight remix of theirs that I’m dying for them to release August 15th.

I honestly have never heard of Flyte One before, but I really like the productions he has. The first one is a Paper Planes remix that was just released. It doesn’t seem like dubstep to be honest, but once you listen to the track that wont really matter. The second track is an insane remix of Louder, if anyone can hook me up with an untagged version hit me up in the comments!

This last track is another one of those artists that I know nothing about except that they have good music. RHYNO from what I have heard has this awesome Pretty Lights styled vibe going, how could one go wrong there.

Dubstep | The SoniXx, Hyjax, Xilent, Nero, and Rusko

This is another video I took at Camp Bisco, this one is of Bassnectar’s opening. I don’t know what track he opened with, if anyone does please let me know. I want it, haha. Besides that, his show was sick. One of the best sets at Bisco.
There have been many remixes of this track, this one is the best dubstep one by far. Best house-step I have ever heard.

In my opinion this is the best Hyjax has done. This remix is a perfect balance between grime and dubstep.

Xilent basically came out of nowhere. All of a sudden as of March, the name comes up once a week. Each track thats dropped is awesome.

*Before listening to the tracks below hear me out on this. Neither of these tracks are confirmed, in fact no one is really sure they are even by Nero or Rusko. With that said it honestly doesn’t matter to me because these two tracks are good and will stay up either way.

Hip-Hop | XV, J. Cole, Wiz Khalifa, and Timeflies | Hip-Hop
Posted by Mach on June 19, 2011
I have said it a few times in posts now, but XV is one of my favorite up and comings. He dropped this track today in celebration of hitting 30,000+ followers on twitter. Personally I would not celebrate such a thing feat, but this track is so good it doesn’t matter.
DOWNLOAD: XV – 30,000 (Feet Up In The Sky)
XV might be my favorite, but no doubt J. Cole is everyone else’s. I wont deny his skills despite my confusion for his insane popularity. Per usual he does a great job on this track.
DOWNLOAD: J. Cole – Cheer Up
Wiz is no boss, but I had no idea he could kill a track going as hard as he does on this. I am use to his chiller tracks, more like this I could get use to.
DOWNLOAD: Wiz Khalifa – Boss
Some of you remember when Timeflies posted a video of this track on youtube. They dropped a more legitimate version than the rip thats been floating around. I don’t know if it’s just because I grew up in the Disney movie cult generation or what, but I really like this track.
