Dedication and Driven (DAD) is a celebration of fatherhood. Jazz Rap/Lo-Fi Hip-Hop vet Substantial delivers his signature baritone vocals over self-produced jazzy bossa-nova sample chops and pounding drums. DAD is from his upcoming project 'A Soundtrack for Fatherhood'. The project is inspired by both fatherhood and his first-ever children's book, entitled 'She Sees'.

From 'Always' [EP]

Lyrics

HOOK 
(Sample) 
If all these rappers are bossman 
All these rappers are bossman 
All these rappers are bossman 
All these rappers are bossman 
Tell me (Sample) Who doing the work? 
Tell me (Sample) Who doing the work? 
Tell me (Sample) Who doing the work? 
Tell me (Sample) Who doing the work? 

VERSE 1 (Substantial) 
Yall some underachievers, 
You’ll never be a boss or leader 
Competitor you’re hardly that either 
You’ll never be as hard as us creatures 
You’re messin with Gods of the speakers 
They sayin Oh My God he’s a genius 
How you gonna ball from the bleachers... 
Where I’m from they call that shit leachin’ 
Nobody working harder we beastin, 
This shit’ll put a pause on your breathing 
Somebody stick a folk in’em please and... 
Tell’em bring the coffin he’s leavin 
Can’t tell if he was coughing or queefin 
Ain’t built for this boy you’re a fetus 
Rippin’ shit apart at our event 
Like a bawse and applause isn’t need 
‘Cause we working day and night, on the low 
So it’s hard to stay in sight but you know that 
Behind the scenes, that I guide my team to realize our dreams and ignite 
The f-f-fire, desire climbing higher and higher 
I was rich even prior to turning sires to buyers 
You’s a customer not owner, 
Just a rustler not loaner 
Hold up, better own up, for you roll up 
And you get exposed as just a poser 
You’s a fraud, baby you ready or nah, 
We can see through the facade 
We goin hard, from our backyard to abroad 
On our job wherever we are! 

HOOK 

VERSE 2 (Tonedeff) 
Godammit, y’all out to lunch 
How in the fuck I expect that the job be done? 
Hired a bunch of impressionist, sloppy chumps 
Trying to stunt for the benefits, stocks and such 
Slip/fall for a settlement, a thousand bucks 
Ripped off, now they sweatin in a taco truck 
Brickwalled by their pettiness - and all for what? 
Shit nah - there ain’t anyone the boss of us 
What a conundrum, who’s left to be moppin up? 
Who in the f’s gonna fetch me a coffee cup? 
It’s obvious none of us wanna be stuck in the office 
but when I’m running biz independently - I’m the one 
in front of a monitor - the devil in me got me just 
Hunting for dollars, every penny is the god you trust 
I’m an autonomous executive - I call for cuts 
Of any incompetent secretaries - so y’all are fucked 
Pink slip… but they talking tough? And wanna don boxing gloves 
Bitch, you a mailroom clerk - so when the scale don’t work, you don’t box, you just box shit up 
Zip it! Ship it! Whip it, good! Devo! Nobody making a cent off Vevo - We don’t 
Give our money to Mr. Iovine, No, we keeping our c-notes, and build it up till the profits come 
Obnoxious to some, cause everybody hate they boss 
Yelling bout how to make they calls 
Telling em how their vacay’s off 
Venting ‘bout how their pay grade’s small 
Evidence of the game they lost, 
And the main is stage is ours, y’all are just bitter 
HR wanted a confidence builder, 
Fine, I’ma get Algo, then Kill drums with Sub - put em on a bill 
bottom line is we always deliver. Get up!

Pep Love - Master Blaster

Cypher Complete mixtape freestyle

Ringing in the New Year, Maryland MC Substantial teams with Mello Music Group producer and fellow DMV native Oddisee for the first official single off Substantial's upcoming album, The Past Is Always Present In The Future. Made In Maryland is Substantial's greatest ode to his home state since his debut solo single in 2000, Home Sweet Home, produced by the late japanese producer DJ Deckstream. The new single also features fellow Marylanders and frequent collaborators: vocalist, Steph the Sapphic Songstress and DJ Jav adding cuts utilizing vocals Joe.D. 

Even if you're not from Maryland as QN5 Music's Tonedeff stated after hearing the song, "S#!t so hard, I'm about to move there!" So pack your bags and take a ride with us through the home of Tubman. 

Pre-orders for The Past Is Always Present In The Future are available now via iTunes and Bandcamp and will be released digitally on January 6, 2017. Compact Discs ship on January 13, 2017 and cassettes and vinyl will be announced at a later date.

________________________

As we approach what may be an exceedingly difficult holiday season for most, Bop Alloy returns with Winter Breaks 2 hoping to end an abysmal year on a high note. The tracks on Winter Breaks 2 exude light, warmth, honesty, and hope from every pore, which is exactly what you've come to expect from the intercontinental jazz hip hop duo.

One of the project's standout tracks, "What's it Without You" aptly captures the sentiment of the year with Substantial rapping, "Rather embrace the pain than run and hide from the truth/ that's my point of view/ hard to know what to do/ supposed to be 2020, our whole perspective is skewed/". Pismo's angelic vocal arrangement (which could easily be mistaken as a small choir) and T. Lucas' emotional letter to his father and everyone who lost loved ones this year hit differently.

But as always, even in times of global crisis and uncertainty, Bop Alloy chooses to accentuate the positive on tracks like "Our Message", "Same Energy", and "'Twas the Night Before", which plays like a much cooler, (and way less rapey) jazz-club duet version of "Baby It's Cold Outside" featuring a spectacular performance from Debórah Bond reminiscent of Ella in her prime. The duo ends the album with a poignant tribute to the parents who work miracles year after year to keep the holiday spirit alive for their children no matter the sacrifices. If Bop Alloy's Winter Breaks isn't already part of your holiday tradition, then 2020 might be the perfect year for you to try something new.

Same Energy (Kwanzaa 365)

HiPNOTT Records was founded in 2009 by hip hop blogger Kevin Nottingham (of KevinNottingham.com) in an effort to release good music by artists that deserve to be heard. This is the first instance of a hip hop blogger branching out to form an independent label.

HiPNOTT Records’ goal is to continuously build their artists’ resumes and consistently develop an image that hip hop will have no choice but to admire. With Kevin Nottingham at the helm, a man who certainly respects the past, present, and future of the genre, it is hard to deny the capability of reaching these goals amongst others.
