CJ The Cynic “VerbNoun (Vox Test)”

If you’re an Ohio hip-hop head, you may know CJ the Cynic from his work with Weightless Recordings in the early and mid 2000s (his group Drown with Plead the 5th was what drew me to Weightless from the get). If you mess with my music, you may remember him from “City of God” on “The World is Ours” album I dropped a while back. CJ is actually an INCREDIBLY talented producer, emcee, and singer (yup, singer). He’ll be prominently featured on my upcoming EP “Synesthesia: The Yellow Movement”, as well as some upcoming records down the pipeline.

CJ dropped this on my FB page just to get a quick opinion, but I couldn’t stop listening, so I wanted to share it with folks. CJ doesn’t fuck with the blog game heavy at all, as he really doesn’t care much about that shit (lol). I love it.

So Enjoy.

J*Davey “Smells Like Teen Spirit” (Studio and Live Version)

A couple months ago, I stumbled across an amazing live video of J*Davey covering Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” with an amazing twist. It stuck in my head for a long time. Alot of people appearantly weren’t digging it, but I really loved the way they twisted it somewhere unexpected.

Thankfully, the Studio Version has been unleashed (Thanks to Andreas at WellVersed.com for the Post).

Budden Meets Portishead Remastered + Instrumentals (FREE)

Just click my bandcamp link after the jump for the free download.

Ill Poetic “The World is Ours” Instrumentals (Free Download)

So in continuance of “The World is Ours” Re-Release campaign that I’ve been working on for the Summer, I wanted to release the Instrumentals for this record as a free download. I realized 2 weeks ago that I’ve never even actually made an instrumental version of this record for myself. So I had the pleasure of digging through the original files for this album and getting nostalgic at all the recording sessions. There are even a couple added instruments here and there this time around, since I got to dig fully back into each songs format.
I’m doing all this as a way of preparing for a huge run of projects that I’m in the midst of wrapping up now (including the follow-up to this record). So I promise I’m not stuck in the past, Just catching the past up to the present so i can work on the future. Hope y’all enjoy it. Hope some emcees catch some writing inspiration. Hope some people catch some riding inspiration.
