Liknuts
Alkoholiks + Beatnuts = Liknuts. This sounds like a lost bootleg from the late 90s. It's amazing.

Jesse Futerman preview
The Jesse Futerman has a new EP, titled Fuse the Witches, coming soon. Don't sleep on it. His last EP was a killer. Groovy instrumentals in the vein of Shadow, et al. Here's a preview of his upcoming project.
Go back and check out his Super Basement EP too.
Tabi Bonney x Yasiin Bey
This here is some low key summertime heat from Tabi Bonney and Yasiin Bey (bka Mos Def). Ski Beatz provides the steel drum heavy track. Enjoy.

A.Dd+ "Can't You See"
Another slick joint from the Texas duo. They just released 9 non-album cuts in the form of a digital comp called Loosies.
Great Scott
Groove on this ladiback joint from ATL MC Great SCOTT. In case you don't know him, don't get his geography confused with any indicator of his style. He's on some true school Golden Era vibe all day and all night.

Video: Oddisee ft. Toine "Different Now"
Best cameo by french toast in a hip hop video. Oddisee is really making cats try harder - pushing the skills to ridiculous levels. Lay back and groove.

The wRap Up
Just thought folks might appreciate a heads up on some good things happening in the hip hop world right about now.
I just finished a review of Raashan Ahmad's new joint for Potholes in My Blog (go check that out). You might know his crew the Crown City Rockers, who are dope. He just dropped a collection of 13 new songs called Soul Power, that is apparently not an album, mixtape, or EP...just a collection of songs, which he wrote and recorded while on tour promoting his last album Push. Here's a real banger called "Day After Day"
Grab it here.
Next up, Stones Throw announced in their newsletter that Mos Def is doing some new stuff with Madlib, Oh No and some of the other Stones Throw fam that will be released this month. Nice. I also heard that he was out with Kweli doing a show as Black Star recently, which is really nice to hear. Hopefully they'll work on some new stuff, because that first Black Star LP is a classic. Here's the Mos Def x Madlib track "Auditorium" that Stones Throw leaked this morning.
Save it for a friend.
That new Dilla album Jay Stay Paid came out this week, and you should definitely go buy it. I heard a track with Raekwon and Havoc on it that is unbelievably good, both spit verses harder than I've heard from either in a minute. It's ill. Do right and buy it. Proceeds go to Dilla's Ma Dukes.
Finally, Tanya Morgan's album Brooklynati came out a week or two ago, and if you somehow managed to miss what everyone and their mothers was talking about, the album is hot. I remember when those guys came through Savannah a few years ago for a show with Dope Sandwich at the Jinx, right when they were starting to really catch some underground buzz. They do their thing, and I'm glad to see them starting to blow up. Twitter was ablaze with talk about this album. This joint "Laura's Song" by TM member Donwill, got sent to me last week, and I'm liking it alot. (PS - this track isn't from the Brooklynati album, it's from his upcoming project)
Put it in on your listening device of choice.
