RTD10


That's right, rockthedub.com has been a thing in my life for the last decade, which is crazy. What started out as a way for me to unload a backlog of reviews and interviews I had piling up turned into a labor of love that allowed me to release compilations people actually talked about, release quality music from New Jersey-based artists, and ultimately lead me to my job at Complex, which has sadly taken me from regular updates here at RTD over the last almost four years.

All of that said, I can't help but be grateful for all of the readers who've stuck through, all of the peers I've talked shop with, and all of the amazing artists who've shown love. RTD has taught me a lot about life, writing, and the industry, and without it, I don't know what path my life would have taken.

In any case, Here's RTD10, a 10-track EP/compilation from a number of artists who have shown love to RTD over the last decade. It contains exclusives from Black Collar Biz and Blahzé Misfits, my favorite tracks from the RTD releases from Deal - The Villain and Emcee Jermaine, and gems from J57, RoQy TyRaiD, the 30 and Over League, Nato Caliph, the Rap Mayor Tone Liv, and Jordanian rapper Satti. Short and sweet. Hit the jump for more details/credits/words on this EP, which is available for free download. And THANK YOU FOR ROCKING WITH THE DUB!

RoQy TyRaiD - "Nonpareil"


Sometimes, I get shit that's dope because dude is a great spitter. Others? It's just a fire instrumental with meh lyrics. This "Nonpareil" shit from RoQy TyRaiD with beats from Jimmy Flight is the best of both worlds. The track doesn't stand still; there's so many intricate, intriguing textures to this track, allowing RoQy's amazing stream of consciousness bars to work wonders. The cover and title won't make sense until the very end, but it'll hit you and you'll just throw your fitted in the air like "yup, that's it."
