Angler Fishing (Instrumental Album) - Octopus Jones

So my boy @KhrisPkream of KReam Team aka Octopus Jones the super producer is back with another instrumental album that e'll definetly satisfy the average hip hop lovers want for samples and Rap enthusiast love for sound. Usually known for his compositions, he takes samples and flips them with ease, using them as if they were chords on a keyboard. The title Angler Fishing is based on the saying “there are plenty of fish in the sea”. Though that’s true, everyone is looking for the one that stands out from the rest. Once the fish is caught, one does not know the outcome until they’ve experienced it. The tape is centered around love, detailing the hardships, joy, confusion, and euphoric state one can go through while being in it. I've had the pleasure of rocking to all of these beats prior to the release of this tape and who knows what might come about from that. "1991" Anyways enjoy this great instrumental album and support my fellow #Outsiders teammate. And this is definetly the ugliest fish in the sea.

How You Think I Feel (Music Video) - Ta'Ea$t

The only other dope artist I know in San Diego who is VERY slept on, almost to the point where I wonder if this music shit is even worth it. I've never seen his name on a blog, but I could be wrong.

Hometown Hero (Video) - Big KRIT

BIG K.R.I.T. HOMETOWN HERO from Creative Control on Vimeo.

I never posted this before, and today I just want to post as much stuff as possible, and it doesn't hurt that KRIT is a dope artist anyway whose on his way to set the bar for new Southern acts.

Fashawn - Life As A Shorty

So this video isnt that old, but it didn't just come out. If you've never heard of Fashawn he was part of the 2010 XXL Freshman crew, and he's a pretty dope artist with a lot of material out there to be heard. Start with his latest realee Ode To Illmatic which can be downloaded here http://www.xxlmag.com/downloads/Ode-to-Illmatic.zip

Wyclef Jean - "The Industry"

Well i know it's not thursday, but i thought id add a throwback video that i havent heard in a few years anyway. "The Industry by wyclef Jean" powerful song if you ask me. Dont take my opinion for it though just listen for yourself.

Uphill Battle (Mixtape) - ev4n holt

I hate posting about myself only because it just looks funny, but it's my site and it's my work so I must promote myself if nobody else will. This project came about originally when I had the idea of a project called 8 Track where it would be just 8 tracks and that's it and I just switched the title name, because unlike Thanks Dilla, or E-motions theres really no concept to it, besides the title and artwork, but it kinda runs with the idea I have for a future project called "On My way Up" so it's an uphill battle first and then you continue to go on your way up. Anyways download this and enjoy some fresh material even if it's only 20 minutes long.

Taktikal, Jason Gorey & Jukstapose "The Wake"

So I was chattin with the homie Taktikal when he linked me to this video. It features the New jersey emcee and two of his cohorts Jason Gorey & Jukstapose trading bars to create some serious heat in the form of "The Wake" .

Mon Valley Mission - Franchise

I keep telling my business partner a video set's you apart from everybody else, because people get to see you and hear you which is very important.
