J-Rell 2010 Leftovers

Simple and plain, dope producers have beats that they send out and they get slept on. No one's fault, really - sometimes, MCs are looking for one kind of sound. Or they feel a certain track might get a better look. The homey J-Rell compiled a number of beats he cooked up and sent to cats in 2010 that got slept on, and gave them out for free in this dope beat tape!

Boom Blake & Genrokka The Credit Union

The New Year's Day releases keep rollin' in, with a tape I've been anticipating for a bit. Straight out of Trenton, NJ, we've got Money First's Boom Blake linking up with Genrokka for their long-awaited Credit Union album, with beats provided by Divine Drummah, Ill Kayn, Sinitus Tempo and plenty more. These cats are about ends, and the money talk is long, but they also take time out to speak about life, with heartfelt tracks like "Black Woman" rounding out what turns into an unexpectedly diverse tracklisting here. I also love the throwback samples in a number of these tracks - love hearing cats from my era dipping back into classic sounds.

Azage "I Made It"

Azage "I Made It" (prod. by Ching Ching): I told you niggas that a lot of projects were dropping today, and it looks like movements are coming to a head today, too. Azage's looking to drop his next project, Good Riddance, in "early 2011, and this is the first leak from that project. In his words, "you will see a lot of the project's visuals relate to the Cosby Show. Good Riddance is Azage's reference to saying bye to his far from perfect childhood to moving in with the Huxtables (so to speak). More than often viewers of the Huxtables found the family to be picture perfect".

He has scooped up a grip of beats and introduces you to his Garden State Of Mind.

FOTM: THUGSTEP #30

David Banner ft. Lil' Flip vs. Skream "Like A Pimp (DJ Nappy THUGSTEP Refix)": I was going to randomly leak some new new new neaux shit for the new new new year, but with Nappy in love with that new Banner/9th Wonder album, I had to dip back. And then I realized that this didn't get it's own proper post (unless I'm Jack Trippin'). This was one of my favorite flips. This blend took one of my favorite ignant anthems and paired it up with one of my early favorite jams from Skream's back catalog. Just undeniable flavor on this, and it fits too perfect... throw this one on and po' a lil' mo in ya cup, chief. Drank up and celebrate this new year!

The Jet Age Of Tomorrow Journey To The 5th Echelon

Newest release from the OFWGKTA camp. Kind of bugged out space journey on this one, with features from Tyler, The Creator, Hodgy Beats, Mike G and more, with Ty and Left Brain on additional production. For those of you out there who think Odd Future is just some MurderDeathKill/teen angst shit (which it can be), this shows their range. A lot of this reminds me on the experimental tangents N*E*R*D* takes their music on. Some of this shit is spaced out - you might be a bit buggy if you puff a blunt before rockin' to this, but that might also be your steelo. Highly recommended.
