soon come...

It's been a long time coming... well, try 5 months or so, from when I broached the initial idea (and subsequent updates) to today, 4 days before the release of The Lighthouse Project. I look at lighthouses as a beacon, a light in the dark that will signal the course you need to go. In expounding on that idea, I try to make rock the dub a spotlight, helping you see the future of Hip-Hop with dope acts who get shine but aren't "there". Or need to be there.

This project has aggravated me at times, but as with anything you are passionate about, that's par for the course. I got so many submissions that I loved that I figured, why not split the release in two; so, Disc 1 drops on Monday, June 9th. It will feature heads like L.E.G.A.C.Y., JunClassic, Hustle Simmons, Cy Yung, Che Grand, Black ELement, R.O.E., Aych, as well as remixes from The Amps and Benja Styles. Among others, of course. It's a bit harder, while Disc 2, which drops on Monday, June 23rd, gets a bit more soulful and introspective, with joints from the likes of Elucid, Amanda Diva, Cave Precise, Praverb and a shitload of others I can't think of at 8 in the morning. It's a deep CD, and DJ Cable is working on the mixtape, so I would imagine that once that's done, it will be an even iller look at the tracks I've compiled (with some exclusives thrown in to boot).

One thing to note: this project is split between tracks that have been released (either on someone's album or on the 'Net) and tracks I got exclusively. Some are new, and some might be new to you. They are all tracks I feel, from artists I feel, and hope you, the listener/blog reader/hater/big upper/peer are into it.

soon come...
