The ominous horns and pounding drums herald the beginning of the blistering opening verse of “Stand Up”, the lead single from DJ Soko (The Left)’s upcoming project on his new imprint Left Of Center. The Apollo Brown produced banger is the perfect aural backdrop for Guilty Simpson and Hassaan Mackey to spit verbal murder over punctuated by DJ Soko’s masterful cuts. When all of these elements come together the end result is an instant headnod starter kit. Guilty Simpson and Hassaan Mackey’s combined bars are the sonic equivalent of the water truck scene in “Snowpiecer” (if you haven’t seen “Snowpiercer”, you’re going to want to after hearing this song). Regard “Stand Up” as a portent of things to come once DJ Soko’s debut LP “Domino Effect” drops this August. You’ve been warned…

Following the critically acclaimed “Pillars” EP with MindsOne, Kev Brown teams up again with Ill Adrenaline Records, this time collaborating with fellow Low Budget Crew member Hassaan Mackey to bless listeners with “That Grit”. Both the Landover Maryland based producer-on-the-mic and the Rochester, NY emcee are longtime members of the prolific artist collective and have previously worked together various times, but this mini-album marks the first time the two embark on a full project. Most boom-bap enthusiasts should already be well acquainted with both Kev Brown and Hassaan Mackey: double threat Kev Brown already showcased his skills on microphones as well as production boards on countless releases and has been dubbed “king of basslines” by fans worldwide. In addition to his solo recordings Kev’s credits include beats for heavyweights like Busta Rhymes, Biz Markie, De La Soul, Jazzy Jeff, and Marley Marl just to name a few, as well as handling entire album production for LMNO, Kaimbr, and Raw Poetic. Hassaan Mackey released a string of albums, including a full-length LP with Apollo Brown, and appearances on releases by Oddissee, Kaimbr, The Left and L’Orange. Recorded during a series of impromptu bus and train trips Hassaan took from Rochester to visit Kev in Maryland, “That Grit” was created with a spontaneous approach, reflecting both Mackey’s freestyle background and Brown’s proven “random joints” formula. Entirely produced by Kev Brown and featuring his signature bassline-driven and raw but soulful sound, “That Grit” consists of an intro, eight full-length tracks and six instrumentals.

Read moreDef Dee feat. yU & Hassaan Mackey – Numb Again [Audio x Download]
Space needle producer Def Dee is easy to catch pushin’ the lac, blowin’ trees, and bumpin’ something fresh. He’s like most young 20-somethings. The difference is, that what Dee’s pushin’ out the speakers is usually his own concoction. When Dee signed a producer development deal with MMG last year, there was no rush, just a desire to hear what the promising beatsmith could do with a little time, some access, and an outlet. Today, Def Dee is excited to share Numb Again (feat. yU & Hassaan Mackey) the first track off of his upcoming spring release, 33 an’a third. The album is a remix compilation with a twist. Dee took unreleased verses from his MMG brethren, along with some classic verses, and started remixing. Then he called in the spittas to fill in the blanks with entirely new bars. The results speak for themselves. Numb Again features an unreleased yU verse that was originally for his group The 1978ers. After Dee remixed it, he called up the gravel voiced Rochester MC Hassaan Mackey to lay an all new verse down. The result: numb. Numb Again (feat. yU & Hassaan Mackey) by Def Dee
