Jahshua Smith – Censored
Reaganomics, racism, and unequal education fuel the revolutionary rhymes of “-Censored-,” the first single from Jahshua Smith’s full-length debut “The Final Season.” The Detroit emcee brings Mic Write (of Cold Men Young) and Rafael on board with his new Pro Black Cool movement. The production is handled entirely by StewRAT, similar to the cohesive system Smith mastered for his critically acclaimed “Black History Year” series with Nick Speed. The Final Season is slated for a first quarter release in 2013.
**peace to the man Ketchum
@theehof – PHUDHD
so today I talked to Ted about something I said I’d do for months (years actually, smh). I’m gonna listen to some of the random submissions I get and post them. whether I hate them, love them, or they don’t motivate me at all. I’ll give my honest thoughts.
this? beat is cool. nothing special. lyrically unmoving. not terrible, but is it memorable? not in the least. this is the no man’s land of the rap game that i always talk about. video is cool tho. *shrugs* maybe the next one will be incredibly awful or terribly awesome. either way it’d be a talking point. OHHH the artwork (down below) for his project Magick? DOPE
Menahan Street Band – “Lights Out” (Official Video)

**also in the list of artists that sampled their first effort, meka forgot to list Kendrick. FAITH!
Safety Not Guaranteed
Kenneth: To go it alone or to go with a partner. When you choose a partner you have to have compromises and sacrifices, but it’s a price you pay. Do i want to follow my every whim and desire as I make my way through time and space? absolutely. But at the end of the day do I need someone when I’m doubting myself and I’m insecure and my heart’s failing me? Do I need someone who, when the heat gets hot, has my back?
Darius: So, do you?
Kenneth: I do.
James Watts – Good/Grief EP
Continuing my recent trend of actually listening to music I listened to this project on a whim. And boy am I glad I did. The production grabbed me (DUH! That’s what thee EFFS I look for first!). Lyrically the kid is nice. He’s not a super lyrical miracle spitter. More like he puts his rhymes together well and gives you his story in his way. It’s very sincere. That’s is very meaningful to me. Listen to this shit
