December 22, 2016

Jabee – “Tried So Hard” (Prod. By Phen) [Video]
December 20, 2016
Found another Jewel… Run The video above, the hit the jump for more on Jabee to truly get what I mean. They’re out here. Just gotta dig for ’em (or know someone with the hookup… I got ya). And for this one, you’re welcome!
The always real Jabee brings a powerful performance to his track “Tried So Hard” Phen (of Jivin Scientists). The soulful vocal sample and the vulnerability of his lyrics are emphasized by the haunting visuals of a man torn to pieces by the very people he craves to please.
Another amazing track and video from his latest album “Black Future” (out now).

Narcotechs – “Kick In La Puerta” feat. AG Da Coroner x Tony Touch x DJ Top 10 (Video)
December 7, 2016
Interesting. Rolled up on “Lil Yachty” like a drop squad. Showed him Hip-Hop the hood way and converted him to rocking a B.I.G. shirt instead of continuing to diss the culture. Strong Beatz & Lyrics. That’s the ‘strong arm tactic’ in this “Kick In La Puerta” video. Checked out that FREE Narcotechs LP yet (posted earlier here) You really should probably. AG Da Coroner, Tony Touch, and DJ Top 10 on this alone ought to push you that way. After you watch this vid, of course.

December 6, 2016
The music’s dope. Not much info on the webs on them, but the work is speaking for the two collectively going by the name Narcotechs so far.
