PJ Simas kicked off 2012 with a new weekly series he coined as “Simas Sunday”.  Artists that have successfully done this (Timeflies, e-dubble), have had an enormous boost in fan activity, keeping their content fresh and interesting.  Although we’ve missed the first couple weeks of Simas Sunday, we haven’t been completely ignoring the music.  PJ has sampled & twisted Drake’s “The Motto” as well as J. Cole’s “Work Out”, released an all original track, and most recently collaborated with Dylan Owen.  In addition to these releases, Sactown’s finest will be dropping another all original album this spring.

Hi-Rez recently released a new track, “X-Problems” featuring QuEST, sharing some clever relationship rhymes.  In other news, Hi-Rez will be performing this year at Bamboozle in NJ.

Jon Kilmer’s highly sought after beat tape, Sheeps, Jeeps, & Beats, which he released back on Christmas Day, has had several up and coming artists testing their flow.  Huey Mack is far from a new face on the scene and has established himself as an artist.  This doesn’t mean he can’t hop on this Blink 182 & Warren G infusion.
