Here’s the latest Creative Control collabo with Curren$y.

The video is typically cinematic and the track is reminiscent of something off a soundtrack from a 70's blaxploitation film.  It's appropriately called Soundbombing.  Check it out. http://vimeo.com/19774088... Read more

The 1982 album by Statik Selektah and Termanology was one of my favorite albums last year. Here’s the video for The Radio off that project.

Like its title suggests, 1982 is throwback hip-hop.  The sound does not reach back to the 80's though.  Instead, it lands in the early to mid-90's, the golden age, and is a return to the boom bap (including scratches from DJ Premier).  You can find more 1982 here and download... Read more

Big K.R.I.T. gets MAJOR props for branching out like this so early in his career. Few rappers take on the live band aspect and when they do it's after they're 3 or more albums deep. Even fewer incorporate a rock element into their sound. K.R.I.T. is doing both before even... Read more
