Song of the Day: Focus (ft. Supreme Soul) – The 3Kngz
I have another electrifying hip-hop track for you hip-hop heads out there. Today’s song is Focus by THE 3KNG. Track coming from their album Endsight, released last July.
Last time the hip-hoppers were featured on NEW LEASE MUSIC, joining forces with PALEFACE JUNKIES for another in-your-face track, Killa Inside Me. Now these guys have their own spot on the blog as they are definitely in a league of their own – take time out and listen to Focus (and you’ll see what I mean!) If the track tickles your fancy, ahead over to their Bandcamp page and check out their album which fuses hip-hop with different genres with hard-hitting messages. Must listen.
Also show your appreciation and holla them @3KNGZ.
Song of the Day: Surfboard (ft. Kwame Darko) – Soho Kings
If you had a pretty crap weekend, then this track will sure cheer you up! Today’s song is Surfboard by New-York hip-hop/electro duo SOHO KINGS.
From the very start, rapper/DJ Celsius911 and producer/singer Bryce Alvord have been making waves with their unique blend of electrifying hip-hop and pop accompanied with the heavy EDM drive. The mixtape, Don’t Go Down That Road earned these guys a spot on the CMJ Hip-Hop charts (peaking at no.15). Their music videos proved to be a massive hit with fans and bloggers, as two of their productions clocked up over 400K hits on YouTube.
There’s no rest for the eccentric duo as they are rocking huge shows at premiere NYC venues such as Santos Party House and Greenhouse as well as collaborating with urban acts like Troy Ave, Ransom, and Jeny Romero.
Have a listen to the feel-good-factor Surfboard – with this explosive track, it comes to no surprise they generated a strong fan base overnight. If you’re feeling Surfboard, why not take a trip to their Soundcloud page and check out their other larger-than-life tracks.

Mixtape Review: Shit Real – Chri Dollasign
1. Dont Mind Prod By Anno Domini Nation
2. Message Prod By Anno Domini Nation
3. Footprints Prod By Anno Domini Nation
4. If Anybody Listening 2009
5. Forgive Me Prod By Anno Domini Nation
6. Ask For Much Prod By Pusher Productions
South Carolina-based rapper/producer Christopher Lee – better known as CHRI DOLLASIGN by his loyal fans – has dropped his mixtape, Shit Real under his record label ThaERA Entertainment.
Released earlier this month, this very short (but sweet) mixtape offers some seriously top-notch head-bopping, melodic beats. When you get the chance to sample Shit Real, you’re greeted with the catchy, shoulder-swinging, I Don’t Mind, where this upriser’s vibrant, slightly out-of-time raps (and I mean that respectfully) completes the track. Message and Footprints offers a more angelic groove which can easily get a load of attention from commercial radio stations. Shit Real finishes on a high with personal favourite Ask For Much, where Chri’s DMX-esque, out-of -beat raps just tops the track.
In just six tracks, this out-of-sight upriser proves that he’s a true contender in the rap game with his well-craft productions…not to mention his out-of-sight raps – can’t wait for the next mixtape! To check out what all the fuss is about, you can check out the Shit Real right here.
Song of the Day: Trophies (Remix) – Drake ft. Mike Lee
Today’s song is the remix of DRAKE’s track Trophies by MIKE LEE.
The hip -hopper from Baltimore decided to step to the plate and put his own stamp on the track after it was rumored that the original version was unfinished.
So here it is – have a sample at MIKE LEE‘s version of Trophies. Did this upriser step up to the plate and deliver? Answers below please or you can show your appreciation by connecting with him on Twitter @___AKE___
