rockthedub radio 035: Blanksgiving


You seen that burnt tf up turkey? That's how a good chunk of America felt post-election 2016. I had to go to bed before the results were in, but I already knew what was going down. Most of you? Devastated. We're still here, though, and instead of pouting or crying or trying to figure out the shoulda/coulda/woulda, let's spring into action. This new edition of rockthedub radio? That's me springing into action, fresh for Thanksgiving.

This mix has a bit of a slant; it's definitely political, featuring motivating material from A Tribe Called Quest, Common, and Run The Jewels, but I also had to throw in a grip of new-ish material. New cuts from Rapsody, Boogie, Dumbfoundead, and Silent Knight play the middle, mirroring thoughts without being too heavy handed, and I had to include some fresh material as well, so expect some straight-up lit material from Leaf and that new Gucci Mane x Lil Uzi Vert mixtape.

Hopefully, you're able to cope with a family member at your Thanksgiving table talking stupid shit regarding the election. If not, here's ~66 minutes of music to help you tune them out. Have at it.

Stream below, download via iTunes, and check the tracklist down bottom.

Dumfoundead Keeps It 100 With His New Mixtape 'We Might Die'


It's been a minute since we've posted new material from Dumbfoundead, but with the way the world is going, his new project, We Might Die, is very necessary.

As he told Complex, "We Might Die was a tape reflecting the mood I was in looking at the world through my phone. The youth and older generation both feeling immortal while the world is crumbling down around us. I wanted to talk about living wild, death, and legacy on these tracks as I approach the end of my 20s. Sorry to be a downer but enjoy!"

Dumb is a supreme spitter; if you've seen him on the battle circuit, you know that. Him applying his heavy mental to this collection of 10 tracks is a blessing for heads who love lyrics. Featured artists include Too $hort, Nocando, and Jay Park, with the likes of Getter, Two Fresh, and BrandUn DeShay providing the beats.

We Might Die is available for stream and download below (or via Bandcamp); you can also check out the videos for "Harambe" and "SAFE" as well. For heads who want to see Dumbfoundead live, keep it locked to his website, as he'll be hitting the road for the We Might Die tour in January 2017.

Dumbfoundead ft. Intuition & Nocando "She Don't Care (Remix)"

Dumbfoundead ft. Intuition & Nocando "She Don't Care (Remix)": Perpetuum would be so happy about this one; I've seen cats like Dumb and No on a lot of the freestyle battle videos, and they both do their fuckin' THING, lyrically. Intuition is no slouch, either, and in preparation for his Girls Are Gonna Like Me tape, which drops on December 21st via 2DBz and Kevin Nottingham, and serves as a prequel to his sophmore LP, Girls Like Me, which drops on January 26th. These three made me like "Paris, Tokyo" lol.

Bonus Beats Intuition "Strut Bounce" (reference verses)

If you love hip-hop, there seem to have been two constants when it comes to year-end reviews: Skillz and his "Rap Up" series, and DJ Cable's year-end mixtapes. The UK turntable wizard is back with "2016 AD," a new three-and-a-half hour(!) mixtape featuring over 130(!!) tracks. The biggest and brightest of 2016 rap is here, including material from Drake, Young M.A, Kanye West, YG, DJ Khaled, Rae Sremmurd, Pusha T, Future, and many, many more. He even throws in some UK flavors, among others.

If you're off from work—or had to go in today and need to soundtrack the rest of your afternoon—saddle up for this almost four-hour hip-hop extravaganza. You can stream the full mixtape below, and you can download the full tape via Cable's Facebook.
