Danny Brown is one of my favorite new rappers, and he’s from the D. He brings a classic Detroit feel and gritty lyrical subject-matter to the table that manages to evoke the sublime and make sense in our modern ‘swagged-out’ Hip Hop climate. Danny’s delivery is also incredibly dynamic and ingenious for its bluntness. Raw as fuck. People need to start recognizing this dude!

Nate Dogg is one of the reasons I rap: ‘It’s a G Funk-era coming down to a gangsta twist’. When I heard he passed, I got really nostalgic. I grew up hard-headed. Being arrested sucks, regardless of the length of your stay. I, like two other rappers, have been in this situation. Cop cars have zero sawg. This song always played in my head every time the cuffs clicked shut. Vintage Snoop on the cameo is classic. The whole vibe is really open and innocent.

I didn’t know people were still doing the UK grime thing. Here’s a video by Teef that’s pretty hilarious and awesome, and it makes me interested in the British hip-hop scene again.

Darwin Deez, you are one wild cat! Not content with creating a full length rap mix-tape entirely from samples from the 1971 kids book, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory — tapping into his talented crew of friends including Dev Hynes, KOOL AD, and Chiddy Bang — he’s now decided to give the whole damn thing away online. Brilliant! Now, go help yourself to it.

With Alanna Stuart on the mic and Ian ‘Pho’ Swain on live beats and effects, a Bonjay live performance is a high-energy spree laced with indie sentiments, R&B hooks and plenty of bass-heavy soul.

Rye Rye is on fire and has gone all double-dutch with M.I.A. Dope lo-key beats with an old-school fly-girl attitude: this is a total summer song that’s going to heat up the coming cold winter months. Hopefully the single comes with that t-shirt M.I.A. is wearing: ‘Fuck Google, Ask Me’.

Here’s another stunning track that has been a radio hit lately in Charm City. It’s got a grittiness and a tinge of sentimentality that I didn’t know still existed in hip-hop.

In the early and mid-90s, I wasn’t aware of Universal Order of Armageddon, but I was listening to Cap’n Jazz at the time. Fifteen years later, I’m much more excited about the reformation of the former. Read more

There are two kinds of metalheads: those that are drawn by the hyper masculine, angry, aggressive aspect of metal, and those that are drawn by its Wagnerian drama, themes of pagan nature worship, and disdain towards modern civilization. The line between the latter and hippies is quite thin. I am one of these sorts of metal fans, which is why I also really love bands like The Lickets, an empyrean, luminously beautiful, experimental folk collective. They make music that makes you feel like a tiny speck floating in the vast oceans of existence, perfect for a night of star gazing, just like Burzum’s fourth album, Filosifem.
We love the vivid colours in the Freak La Notte range of t-shirts. The French label’s collection of shirts are like little canvases of super-styled surrealism – bold, elegant, and enchanting.
