Sha Stimuli ~ The 9.2.5 ((Album))

How do you get to a place where you wake up and do what you love to get paid? Sha Stimuli asks and answers that question on the 9th release in The Rent Tape Series entitled The 9.2.5. 

This EP picks up somewhere around the place that The Chills left off. It is an ode to, a reflection on, and a musical backdrop describing the admitted fear of having a job.

SA-ROC PRIM-ROC (Dj Premier & Sa-Roc) : "PLASTIC PEOPLE"


Lyrics:
They said we didn't stand a chance out here cuz real substance don't impress much dear, and they don't dig you less your flesh touched up yeah, airbrushed and knifed up til the press finally cares. Cuz good music all about big booty hoes and the stations let it spin cuz now anything goes. And eloquent prose fails to negligent posers who'll take a few stacks for the price of their souls. And pure gold loses value on the market. Empty dollar bills make a shorty drop and pop it. Cats is throwing bands to make her dance and she'll be glad to be your Barbie if you offer enough paper to endorse it. These ninjas lost it like miscarried seeds, spontaneous abortions for their portion of the cream. Say aint no use in crying over spoilt milk they buying you for sport so put a cork in it and use your effing brain, kid.

Jean Grae ~ Kill Screen (Video)


Full-length flick for the Gotham Down bonus cut.

Grae herself calls the video “an Easter egg hunt,” adding that “there are single-frame clues and messages and extra videos hidden within the video.”

PRIM-ROC : "THE SLEEPING DOGON GIANTS (featuring: Pro. Griff) & "THE CELESTIALS"


Lyrics:
I am not an underground rapper, I bust stratospherically past the illest cats you claim to know battling. You wanna rumble with the dogon, spar with zulu, im mr sulu you earthbound and I am star trekking. my pineal gland spewing black gold on mic stands each pause is deep space, every stanzas an undiscovered planet. They couldn’t understand it so they tried to hide the pantheon I’d ramble on but they’ll just censor god dammit. they don’t want the sleeping giants rousing out they slumber, they might bomb the Vatican and blow up Benny’s cover. He married Christ and took the devil as his secret lover. Pricing heads while getting brain from altar boys in Dublin. Their game is crumbling and im atop the rubble burn the vampires and bury the bodies with a trenching shovel. Dubble dubble toil and frigging trouble. I’m gon hover with the hubble while they huddling on the ground level.-THE SLEEPING DOGON GIANTS (prim-roc)

Devine Carama ~ White Girl Lost f. Marcus McClinton

This is a song that deals with racial perception. Racism isn't always based off of hate, but rather ignorance. This song tells two stories of a white girl with misguided perceptions when it comes to their affection for the black male. I'm from Kentucky so I have personally dealt with this situation several times. I wanted to shed light on this particular aspect of racial perception. At the end of the day don't judge people off their religion, race, etc. Just get to know people and love or hate them for who they are. "It Was Rewritten (Nas Tribute)" drops October 1st!

Uptown XO ~ Petey Greene [Prod AB The Pro] (Video)

produced by AB The Pro; Directed by 2Cams
From the upcoming mixtape "The Color Grey" (10/1)

"The Schools closed, the prisons open."

Hip-Hop at it's best is more than entertainment -- it is political. Enter Petey Greene: 70's & 80's DC radio host turned television celebrity, who made his mark discussing racism, poverty, drugs, and life in America with unparalleled candor. Fast forward 30 years and much of rap has lost its edge, much of its political ambition.

Bringing it back, is Diamond District emcee Uptown XO on the newest cut, Petey Greene, from his soon to be released mixtape "The Color Grey" (10/1). The Washingtonian rapper uses his platform to explore the Chicago School Teachers Strike, the judicial system and institutionalization, and racism in general. Enjoy the new video, look out for the mixtape, and educate yourself for the action.
