New Track: That’s Real – King Blitz

king-blitz-thats-real

It’s been a loooong time since this guy appeared on NEW LEASE MUSIC but KING BLITZ returns with a very exciting new collaboration with Penacho Beats entitled ‘That’s Real’.

Blitz comes through with an incredibly emotional verse over some acoustic-soul production, while Penacho do what does do best — pull out the bass.

The comeback track is taken from the Indiana rapper’s forthcoming mixtape, schedule for release in March via iTunes and Apple Music.

With a sound and style that’s all his own, armed with an extra helping of swagger and boundless enthusiasm, KING BLITZ became one of the most talked about up and coming hip-hop artists when he was barely twenty years old. He subsequently appeared on tracks with his peers, such as YMCMB and KE ON THE TRACK.

Check out the video for ‘That’s Real.’

New Track: Lunch Money – Dollar$ignDunn (ft. TwonDon

dollarsigndunn-lunch-money

DOLLA$IGNDUNN has teamed up with fellow New Jersey emcee TwonDon for the first time for a collaborative effort entitled ‘Lunch Money’.

Lasting two and a half minutes, the accompanied visual shows the Upper Class Worldwide recruits delivering two totally different styles, creating a production that’s impossible to hate…something tells me that this little banger is the first of many collaborations between the two young wordsmiths…

This is time for you to hit the play button.

Mixtape Review: Live From District 3 – Beanstock

beanstock-livefrom-district

I’ve never heard of the music collective BEANSTOCK before  – I feel so ashamed admitting this right now – but I henceforth, I shall be keeping a very close eye these Boston spitters and I’m going to tell you why…

Not only does the album cover features one of my favourite actress Betty White, their 12-track mixtape, ‘Live From District 3’  (released last month) hooks you straight in with seriously infectious basslines within the first two or so tracks.

Further along the collection, there’s a few isolated productions that doesn’t hold the same buzz created in the first half of the mixtape – but with a few listens, they could become potential favourites.

All-in-all, ‘Live From District 3’, is worthy of a place in any dedicated hip-hopper’s collection and has the ingredients to carry on the hype, created from their previous mixtape, ‘More Things To Do.’ Give a trial; check it out!
