A Few Artists You've Never Heard Of ...

So, most of you know I listen to a lot of music. This past week I've been on a bit of a music binge so here goes some of my favorite artists I've recently discovered.

Supersci is a Swedish Hip Hop group that are incredibly dope.  I've had their album "Pinetrees on the Pavement" in constant rotation recently.

Action Bronson is the guy pictured to the right.  He's literally the white Ghostface.  If you like Ghost, you'll like this guy.

Meyhem Lauren is a NY rapper thats in Action Bronson's camp.  Dude is on some intelligent street music reminiscent of the mid 90s.

To slow down the mood a bit, here is Quadron.  RnB? I guess thats what I'd classify the group as.  Anyways, their dope.

congpleXonome is ridiculously dope.  He's got that whole Marshall Mathers LP circa Eminem/Tech-9 style rhyme scheme with a unique voice.  Great Hip Hop.

Yep Its That Time of the Year ....

Chaz Alexander - Kill That '11

Nothing like rapping on some simple breakbeats.  Pictured to the left is Dumhi, a Hip Hop renaissance man.  Dude pretty much does it all musically.  Production? Check. Mic Skills? Check.  DJ? Check. In one word to describe Philly's own, dude is a beast. Figured I'd jump on and hit the lab for a new 2011 cut that was produced and scratched up by Dumhi.  Song is called "Kill That '11" and you can download it below.

Chaz Alexander - Black & Orange

The only thing I like as much as music is sports. Baseball in particular, but I follow baseball, football, college football, basketball and MMA.  Pretty much everything. Well anyways, as much as I HATE Wiz Khalifa his song "Black & Yellow" is catchy as hell.  What a better way to pay tribute to my favorite baseball team (besides the 'Stros) then to do my own version, "Black & Orange".

Random Music Post: Jan 22, 2011

I feel like im gonna be doin this a lot. I listen to A LOT of music.  A LOT of music.  Anything from Rock to Pop to Hip Hop is in my headphones at any given time.  I do have one guilty pleasure with music though...well actually I dont know if I would call it a guilty pleasure:  I am a huge advocate of independent music.

I actually don't know why I just wrote that last paragraph but here are some random dope albums:

Amad Jamal - Barely Hangin On (Hip Hop)

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Before Today (Pop/Rock)

Kendrick Lamar - EP (Hip Hop)

Burial - Untrue (Dubstep)

Animal Collective - People EP (Rock/Experimental)

Alright so there's five albums, five free downloads. Hope you don't have all of em already, if you've never heard of the artist youtube em first to see if u dig em
