JABB, Yung Jay & Rambo – O Nah (Freestyle)

Bq5j5nDCAAIRbDj
Prepare yourselves for a new exclusive. All three members of Alexandria’s “Da Oceans” unite for the first time on wax since “AVA” from Rambo’s Too Trill  mixtape. The three go in over “Or Nah” in the raunchiest way possible. JABB goes first, flipping the song title in an interesting way at the end of his verse. Yung Jay wants to introduce you to the squad and wonders if you’ve heard his project. Rambo holds up the rear, wanting a girl that can cook more than just food and hold him down. By the way, this freestyle is just to hold people over. Expect a lot more from “Da O” soon, especially JABB’s sequel to Da Oceans EP, dropping November 24th.

 

Johnny Cinco – Whole Lotta (Prod. by Zaytoven)

Some say all of Zaytoven’s beats sound the same, and they have a point. He uses the same synth sounds and patterns and most of his tracks are at the same tempo. But he can do a lot with a little because his sound has captivated many a listener, regardless of how repetitive it is. And occasionally he mixes it up, changing the quantization, pitch and filtering his tracks.  “Whole Lotta” is a great example of that. I haven’t forgotten Johnny Cinco either, the rapper whispers and repeats in a way that is almost underwhelming but works perfectly in complementing the beat.

4Bidden – Vertigo

The always mysterious 4Bidden drops another melodic Electronic track, with elements of House, Trap, classic Hip-Hop and Grime. “Vertigo” is less dissonant, dark and Bass-heavy than some of his other material as of late, but it still remains memorable as ever.

#LatePass Noah-O – R.I.C.H. Ft. Nickelus F & Rum (Video)


Richmond rapper Noah-O grabs local legends Nickelus F & Rum for “RICH”, a music video once taken down from Youtube b off his forthcoming Monument Avenue, project. The video shows the Monument Avenue, an area of Richmond filled with statues, mostly those of people important in the Confederacy…making the song and video directed by Monsee that much more powerful.

Lex Luger & Sheila D – Outer Space

To be frank, I haven’t been that into Lex Luger’s recent jump into rapping. Although he is certainly an amazing producer, most of his tracks have been bad Juicy-J rip-offs, filled with empty boasts and the same-old foreign clothes and cars, sex and drugs, etc. But I am extremely happy for Baltimore’s Sheila D, who we’ve been supporting for years. Her rapid fire feature saves Lex’s “Outer Space”, an other-wise average auto-tune track. I hope this brings Sheila some more opportunities because she’s talented and has a great message that goes along with most of her music.
