Rashid Hadee feat. JV – “When The Temperature Rise” (Video)
March 18, 2012
This song is pure dopeness from Chicago emcee & producer Rashid Hadee off of his “Aural Sex: The Search For Pinky Tuscadero” project. This new video for “When The Temperature Rise” feat. JV directed by DOMI V is the 6th video from the project & his team doesn’t plan to stop until a video is made for each song on the joint to create a complete mini-movie of sorts when it’s all said & done.

New Music: Clear Soul Forces – “Detroit Revolution(s)” (Album)
March 18, 2012
Things happen so fast on the internet & with artists releasing music that I almost forgot to post this joint up from the Detroit homies Clear Soul Forces. After they dropped the video for “Get No Better” produced by Kankick back in January we were patiently waiting for the full length. With everyone focused on SXSW going on this week I’m glad we didn’t wait too long to get this up for all those real hip hop fans out there. If you haven’t peeped it yet you can listen to it below & make that move with the download.

R&B/Soul: Mar – “Our Attempt”
March 18, 2012
Swedish R&B/Soul singer Mar is back with another quality soul gem with “Our Attempt” which is his first single off of his 5 song EP called “Seeing Her Naked” that he’s releasing in conjunction with Okayplayer. Mar is one of those types of artists that you may not be a familiar with them, but you grow fond of their work with every release because they keep the quality control level high everytime. I’m still bouncing to the joint he did with D.C. producer Oddisee called “Inglewood” as well as the “April 14th” joint with london based swedish singer Szjerdene. Looking forward to the hearing the entire EP later this month especially after looking at this sexy cool looking cover above….

R&B/Soul: John West – “Nobody”
March 18, 2012
L.A. based singer John West has been coming with some quality songs with each release but the leaks haven’t been too abundant or frequent. I was enjoying the “Lovely” joint with Pusha T that he put out in March of last year around this time & here he comes again with another quality joint called “Nobody”. Great work. I’m even more looking forward to his upcoming album to be released on Mercury/Island Def Jam. I usually can tell if I dig a song if I played it more that 2 or 3 times in a row. This was one of those types of songs….
