Read moreAllen Poe & Teck-Zilla feat. Hannibal King – Incandescent [Audio]
A vintage look at life through laid back tone and sepia soundscapes, Lexington, Kentucky based MC Allen Poe and Nigerian born/Montreal based producer Teck Zilla team up for the new EP “Light Bulb Over My Head While I’m Thinking.” Littered across the beats are snippets from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s speech about the conscious mind, which is the entry point for Poe to touch off his various thoughts about…well, thought. From inner reflections on what to pass along to his children to musings about being socially awkward, the objective is to explore that caricature “light bulb” over one’s head while mid-thought. As philosophically charged as as it sounds, AP and Teck carry a light tone and relaxed vibe throughout. Featured artists are Nashville’s Jung Youth, Queens MC/Producer Hannibal King and Nigerian singer Maka.

Read moreH.T.M. (I-20 & DJ Pain 1) – The Drawing Board [EP]
Heroes to Most, or HTM, is a group you may not have heard of. That is because they’ve just recently begun releasing music as a group, though members I-20 (founding member of Disturbing the Peace) and DJ Pain 1 (producer of songs by Young Jeezy, Kevin Gates, more) are not new names in the music world. Though the two are frequent collaborators, as HTM, their music has taken on a more cohesive, experimental and adventurous sound. Their debut EP “The Drawing Board” features Royce Da 5’9″, Ron Browz and others and is sure to please fans, from the casual to hardcore, who are looking for both new and classic sounding Hip-Hop artistry.
