Reks - Say Goodnight

Some are calling this the number one track for 2008... Reks' "Pray for Me" is good too if you like this one... stay tuned tomorrow for oldschool Friday...

Elzhi - Fire

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJEKCF3If1I

Bit of aggression to get you through the day, put that fire in your belly with some snappy punchlines with that Detroit flavour...

Akrobatik - Say Yes Say Word

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGzsJx2Xa4I&feature=related



What can I say... Dope Beat, Fresh Lyrics, Tight Production, Rediculous Flow, if you don't like this one I don't know what to tell you... Boston Rapper Akrobatik sounds a bit like Xzibit and recently formed The Perceptionists with Mr. Lif and DJ Fakts One.

"Now if you lovin hip-hop say yes, And if you feelin hip-hop say word"

Jemini the Gifted One - Scars and Pain

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_X50AR2FHeM&feature=related

To borrow a phrase this is "Apocalyptic Lyric Shit" you might have heard him alongside Dangermouse, but personally I think this was Jemini in his prime...Mad intelligent flow

All Natural - Queens get the money

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oD36BdF8Q14



"All Natural is DJ Tone B. Nimble and MC capital D. Hailing from Chicago, All Natural is a classic two-man Hip-Hop duo. Both in their music and live show, the tandem builds off of 2 essential elements of Hip-Hop (the DJ & MC). The name All Natural describes the group's demeanor and approach to music. The group drops Hip-Hop music in its purest form, while also pushing the artform forward.

All Natural has independently dropped 3 12-inches and an album in under 2 years. During the past year alone the group has completed 3 European tours of The Netherlands, England, Scotland, Portugal, Sweden and France."

D&D All-Stars Cypher - 1, 2 Pass It (LP Version)

KRS ONE, DOUG E FRESH, JERU DA DAMAJA, MAD LION, SMIFF AND WESSUN, FAT JOE, DJ PREMIER

My opinion, Jeru, KRS, Doug E Fresh the ones to listen to, S & W pretty tight, but you can probably fast forward through fat joe, Jeru's verse kills it. "When I plan my attack I doubt that you're ready, Rain on competition like razorsharp confetti, Kung Fu techniques from the perverted monastery..."
