I guess
this wasn't a joke. I do feel odd that he calls his project
Face in the Crowd, but then has it released by
Refined Hype &
BOTTOM SHELF. Most "faces in the crowd", within this Internets Hip-Hop game, don't get co-signs on their projects (and the fact that the cover doesn't have -
wait for it - other people in it), but I digress. This is a good introduction to
Capri's chamber. The intro/title cut feels like
Nas' "Book of Rhymes", a lot of different themes/thoughts being thrown atop one beat (although this would've been doper with an
ALC beat). Elsewhere, upcoming gems like
King Mez help add some weight to this project, but Capri doesn't throw wild features all over - and has a variety of soundscapes to help him prove to you that he's singular. Despite the date on the calendar, this EP's devoid of jokes. Give it a spin.

The homey DJ Cable has been on a ROLL lately, with touring as Yasmin's DJ, starting up his Triangulum imprint and doing other producing and stuff. Lots of good food on his plate. Last night, the premiere of his Mini Mix for Annie Mac's Mashup was played last night, showcasing 160 Hip-Hop tracks... in five minutes! If you're a fan of things like DJ Zinc's DnB Megamix, or just love Annie's show in general, you should know how this will roll out. He uploaded it earlier, and I wanted to share this with you.
