U.G. (of Cella Dwellas) – The Mystic [Audio]

After years of work and several delays, Brooklyn rapper U.G. (of the acclaimed duo, Cella Dwellas) is ready to drop his debut solo album, ‘Portals.’ But before the full project arrives, he’s delivered a mission statement of sorts with the lead single, “The Mystic” which will please longtime fans, and introduce newcomers to one of rap’s most unique voices. U.G.’s distinct approach to his artform is heard almost immediately, as the beat supplied by IDE creeps and looms beneath his vocals. The BK spitter attacks it with precision and prowess like only he can: “Listen/ I bang my chest like a bongo/ Congo/ Push rocks like Rondo/ Arms throw/ Combos/ F*ck up your whole ensemble.” And when he gets to the hook to proclaim, “My sh*t sound like nothin’ else you ever heard,” it’s pretty much impossible to disagree. Given that it’s been a minute since we’ve heard from the Cella Dwellas, it’s safe to say that ‘Portals’ is not just long overdue, but also one of the more anticipated projects of the year. We know you’ll agree once you get to hear it yourself when it drops in October. “The Mystic” is now available for stream, and can be downloaded off the iTunes pre-order link for Portals, as the project’s debut instant-grat track. ‘Portals,’ which includes guest features from the likes of Celph Titled, Mista Sinista, Life Long, Necro and more, hits all major digital retailers and streaming outlets on October 21, via Creative Juices Music.

Desiigner: I Am Def Jam (Documentary) [Video]

Even after he blew up with “Panda,” we didn’t know much about Desiigner. The Brooklyn native has kept a low profile (besides that recent arrest) and hasn’t done many interviews in the process. This I Am Def Jam documentary is certainly letting fans inside his world, though. From hooping it up in the neighborhood to having a family gathering, this may be one of the most personal looks we have at the rapper, as he opens up about how he made in the game. He even gives advice to those on the come up, saying if you have faith, you could make it too. Not to mention the fact you have to work hard and take your time with your craft so you can project to the world art that is at its highest peak. (via)
