Ransom X Statik Selektah - It's Ransom Ft. Styles P

Hip-Hop legend Edo.G teams up with his apprentices G. Dot & Born, Boston natives, to shine light on their story and style while also providing their own sound.  All production is handled by Confidence, who's claim to fame includes "Rashad and Confidence" and "Purpose and Confidence" on Ill Adrenaline Records and he produced seven tracks on Neek the Exotic’s “Hustle Don’t Stop” LP from 2012.  

The LP is fourteen tracks deep with Gdot & Born handling about half the duties on the mic, with the remaining tracks being handled by Edo.G, providing listeners with a nice diversity; while Confidence keeps a steady stream of that authentic Hip-Hop he is known for throughout.
     
Confidence, a student of the game dating back to the 90’s, first got a taste of music production in the mid 90′s while learning to DJ with his brother Technic.  His break didn't come until 2001 when he copped an MPC 2000xl which he still uses to this day to compose masterpieces.   

G. Dot & Born relay the struggle of survival in the streets with hard-hitting raw lyrics, traditional gritty street beats and a confident delivery that takes Hip-Hop back to its essence. G. Dot and Born stay true to the city of Boston that raised them and 90’s Hip Hop influences like J. Dilla, Sean P., Big Pun, Edo G., Kool G. Rap, AZ and Nas by embodying a humble braggadocio that only real life experiences teach you. 

Today, the group offers up a tribute song, “Living Legend,” dedicated to the one and only Pete Rock, featuring Pete’s former INI cohorts Grap Luva (Pete’s brother), Rob-O & EDO. G.

Confidence Presents G. Dot & Born Featuring EDO. G will be released on 1-28-14 and you can pre-order it here: http://redlinemusicdistribution.bigcartel.com/product/confidence-presents-gdot-born-featuring-edo-g

Mr. Brady - Jewel Piece (feat. Blu, Johaz & Moka Only)

Wax Poetics Premiere: http://bit.ly/1pHlsIi
While the 90's may have been a pinnacle time for producers in terms of innovation, experienced heads can tell who's in the game to make a quick buck and who's crafting songs to help diversify the genre's existence. If you fall under the latter -- that is to say, you enjoy sharp lyrics and beats that'll force you to spit your best 16, then Long Island's very own Diabolic will be right for you with his DJ Premier produced single, "Diabolical Sound," taken from his forthcoming LP, 'Fightin Words.' As the legendary Premo builds upon his signature style to create a sinister anthem akin to what brought him to the forefront of the game during the genre's Golden Era, Diabolic delivers bar after bar of creative genius that runs circles around your typical radio rapper's cookie cutter rhyme scheme. "Diabolical Sound" is the first lead track taken from Diabolic's 'Fightin Words' LP, which is set to drop on September 16th. The album includes features from Sean Price, Vinnie Paz, Celph Titled,  RA the Rugged Man, and more.. stay tuned for more heat from Diabolic!

:: About Beneficence and 'Basement Chemistry' ::

After dropping back to back classics with "Sidewalk Science" (2011) and "Concrete Soul" (2012), Brick City veteran and Ill Adrenaline Records co-founder Beneficence unleashes his 6th solo LP "Basement Chemistry". Armed with the true sounds of the golden era Benef drops rejuvenated flows and shares mics with hip-hop's elite lyricists. The lineup includes Inspectah Deck (of Wu-Tang Clan), Masta Ace, MC Eiht, El Da Sensei, AG (of D.I.T.C), Dres (of Black Sheep), The Legion, Chubb Rock, MindsOne, and Estee Nack (of Tragic Allies). Once again the close Artifacts affiliate traps the listener into slick, thought provoking rhymes backed by hard hitting yet soulful production from DJ Spinna, Da Beatminerz, 12 Finger Dan, Confidence, L'Orange, Presto, KON Sci, Jazz Spastiks, and many more. 19-tracks strong, the dusty and raw sounding full length displays a perfect blend of street jewels like the Inspectah Deck laced "Digital Warfare" and the Masta Ace inspiring anthem "When The Sun Comes". The P Original produced banger "EZ As 1-2" opens the album brilliantly showing Benef's relaxed but witty cadence. "Basement Chemistry" travels down many avenues including the battle rap driven joint "Against The Grain" and storytelling saga "Maui Vacation". The album's formula stays true to the game with obscure samples, intricate cuts, and official boom bap sound.

Jesse Perez - 90's Hip Hop Mix (Live Vinyl)

Unreleased track originally circa 1998-1999. The track was produced by legendary producer/ DJ Merlin back in the days when Supastition and Merlin worked together heavily in Greenville, NC. They gained attention via the local hip hop night at Peasant's Cafe as part of a crew known as the Grassroots Organization (GRO). The two collaborated on several hip hop and drum & bass songs originally recorded for 7 Years of Bad Luck. On 12/25/2017, DJ Merlin passed away so this is being posted in his honor. REST IN PEACE, Jason "Merlin" Geraghty!

Frank Knight has teamed up with producer Rediculus and is back with his new single “New York Summer”.  Over the horn and guitar driven track Rediculus provides, Frank weaves a creative narrative that entails the experiences of being a real true New Yorker who lives in the city that never sleeps all while being scorched by the brutal summer heat. The track’s smooth vibe brings forth a cool summer breeze of beautiful things to see throughout the train hopping, ferry riding and every day grinding life of a New Yorker through the life and eyes of Frank Knight.

“New York Summer” is the first single off the upcoming album “Ghetto Psalms of the Knight”.  Ghetto Psalms is produced by Rediculus and shows Frank discussing life from the lens of his life since the shift in the country a few years ago.

“Ghetto Psalms of the Knight” is expected to release on Monday September 9th.
