It’s good to have KING DICE O and his long-time collaborator DICE CANNON back here on NEW LEASE MUSIC. These guys were featured with tracks Drive (produced by TW$) and the loved up Something to Tell and the announcement of the long-awaited mixtape The Life Vol.1 back in August.

Now it’s finally here and I have the pleasure of reviewing this mixtape –these guys are not afraid to mix (at times) atmospheric, spaced out hip hop with a little old time soul, acid jazz and reggae– and they definitely not afraid of delivering their innovative raps with straight up, truth-need-to-be-told lyrics.

Tracks The Art of Life, My Soul, Move Forward and My Story feature that spaced out hip hop where these rappers deliver first class spoken word freestyling of obstacles that life presents. The Life Vol. 1 is just like a chocolate sundae – as you dig deeper it gets sweeter. Still featuring the hard-hitting lyrics, track Story of Sam, nicely switches the tone of the mixtape with its easy gliding grooves. The lyrics lighten up in the SLUM VILLAGE-esque Lounge Music and old school funk/spaced with reggae infused Swagg vs. Class.

The Life Vol.1 ends on a high with Struggle of Structure. Sampled from INCOGNITO’s track Deep Waters, these guys raps just oozes into the acid jazz infused production – this one is a must listen

Now I’m not just saying this for the sake of it, but this mixtape definitely deserves the hype, as these guys definitely worked hard to perfect their on-point fusion of hip hop, acid jazz, and soul with a touch of reggae. The fact the they mix hip hop with all these genres is at least a little intriguing – so quench your curiosity and head right here to check out the mixtape.

Star Song: Millionaire – Two4One

Check out today’s song, Millionaire by TWO4ONE. This track is coming from their album Bargain Basement Shit, released in March.

TWO4ONE consists of Dutch Young ( described as The, Man, The Myth and The Legend) and Belligerent. Together these hip hop duo bring to the table the fashion forward beats with lyrics that’s relatable and definitely speak to your soul. Within a year, the combination of head-rolling beats and clever but hard-hitting wordplay took these guys from small bars in their hometown Missouri to the airwaves in Alaska.

Well have a listen to Millionaire, as this track just displays that these guys are steadily going places. With laid back raps that grooves with the smooth, easy-cruising bassline, it won’t be surprising that they will go way beyond the Alaska airwaves in no time.

So if you’re digging this track, head over to their Bandcamp page and check out the album.

Review: The Artist – Brad

1.Pray
2. U.O.E.N.O Freestyle
3. Under Control
4. Get Your Freak On Freestyle
5. Practice
6. Blessed
7. Too Alive
8. BRAD City
9. No Church In the Wild
10. R.I.P Freestyle
11. Train Freestyle

Timmal Bradford aka BRAD is more than determined to break the mould of traditional hip-hop influences though his mixtape The Artist, released last month.

If you’re unfamiliar with this Mississippi-bred rapper expect original and witty wordplay with rollercoaster raps that dip and grooves into an assortment of sit-up-and-take-note beats.

This 11 track mixtape features some seriously easy cursing productions: Pray, Under Control and Practice. With these tracks, this guy confidently raps that he’s a cut above the rest. The Artist heats up with Get Your Freak On Freestyle and BRAD City, where his rollercoaster freestyling is really evident. But the hot tracks of the mixtape have got to be the super smooth Too Alive, Train Freestyle and the funky R.I.P Freestyle.

I have to be honestly here: time after time I’ve heard rappers go on about how they’re the next best thing– but in reality they don’t cut the mustard. BRAD is different, as The Artist mixtape just proves that this guy is the ‘Mozart of hip-hop’ and is definitely staying in the hip hop game for a long while – CHECK IT OUT here (highly recommended)

Today’s track is Been Missing by Danny Green KP.

Man, this Philly rapper has been busy…besides releasing his mixtapes The Current Times of Danny Green and 4^th Quarter Grind earlier this year, he was recently featured on his boy SUGE MASAYA’s remixed version of I’m SO.

Now he produced (and also featured on) the atmospheric, spaced out track with MIZZY CARLO. Don’t leave this post until you have a bash – because these guys’ raps are on the money!

If you’re really feeling it, there plenty more tracks on his SoundCloud page – there’s no time like the present!
