Here’s the thing. I saw this jawn more than an hour ago over @ Bugseed’s blog Independent Beatcasting and I decided to immediately press play. Jeebus Price!

This beat featured producers with diverse sounds such as Bugseed, Ichiro_, ILL THE ESSENCE, Osurek Bertop, Jazim, RADAx39, CAI-BEATZ and several others over 36 slaps. DON’T SLEEP!

DON’T SLEEP: AiS “Places That Aren’t Reality” & “Songs That Aren’t On The Radio” [BEAT TAPES]

I was just recently sent a link to a beat tape by a 19 year old producer I’d previously never heard of named AiS. The project was pretty impressive and it is called “Songs That Aren’t On The Radio”.


I then went back and checked out his Bandcamp and I heard his previous offering, the 14 track opus called “Places That Aren’t Reality”. I suggest you all check them both out, too. Don’t sleep…

Here’s the 3rd single from the highly slept on Benchmark Music LP “American Jibaro”. The jawn is called “When I Bleed” and y’all really fucked up by not picking this LP up. It’s perfect Summer music in my biased opinion. DON’T SLEEP!

I’ve known of Slaine for so damb long it’s ridiculous. I use to cop mixtapes on CD with Slaine on them back when I had a job and I hadn’t even turned 30 yet. That long ago. This album is his debut solo project. I’ve seen this dude bust his ass and pay his dues to become one of the most well respected emcees in the area and the Rap game as a whole. This album was supposed to drop last year but it’s been reworked and here it finally is, “A World With No Skies 2.0”. You can cop this album from Amazon, iTunes, UGHH or any other reputable physical or digital music marketplace. DON’T SLEEP!

OH. MY. GOD. HOV! The lead single from Oddisee’s forthcoming Mello Music Group LP “Rock Creek Park” is called “The Carter Barron” and evokes memories of Oddisee’s material with Ave.To from back in 2008 and much of the production aesthetic you can hear all over “Odd Seasons”.
