The Audacity of Dope

Figured I might as well go completely in the opposite direction from the last post, from Bronson’s almost slapstick tales from the hood record to Co$$’ heartfelt rhymes about love lost.  It’s all about balance I suppose.

Anyway, this is that real life music.

I think one of the YouTube comments summed it up best: “The more you listen to Bronson, the less he sounds like Ghost.”  I’d agree.  Bronson is a beast right now and completely freaking hilarious at the same time.  He’s one of those MC’s that I automatically check for every song he’s on and I’m positive that the Blue Chips project with Party Supplies will be fire.

My guy Pinder is out here killin’ it with new music, videos, and supporting Black Milk’s current tour. Really looking forward to checking out his project. The 206 is on fire.

On this week’s episode of SNSS, we were joined in studio by a few homies who have linked up for group projects: Parker (of State of the Artist) & Lace Cadence talked about their new EP, Imagination, and Prometheus Brown (aka Geologic of Blue Scholars) joined forces with Bambu to speak on their new group, The Bar.  Along with our guests, we played new music from artists like Slaughterhouse, Saigon, Dee-1, J. Cole, Miguel, Kev Brown, The Wurxs, STS, Mr. J. Medeiros, and more.

Enjoy!

One of my favorite records from 2011 gets the visual treatment in spring 2012…and promptly makes me wish it was summer 2012 already. This is that “last song at a house party” type track where you’ve been talking to that girl ALL night and you finally make the move (before the night is through).

SNSS listeners will remember when Sin and Blakk Soul dropped by our studio to debut this record a few weeks ago and here are the visuals.  Be sure to cop the album, The Story of Love x Hate, right here.  Sin is one of the dopest and most consistent artists we have in the Northwest, so support the man.  Come on out to The Croc tonight for the release party with Thaddeus David and Luck-One as well!

Song’s chip over the top to RvP for the game-winning volley was reminiscent of their connection earlier to defeat Everton. Simply class.
