This is Volume 3 of “The Holy Mountain Spirituals” series. I’ve been living way out in the mountains of Malibu, CA for about a month now (break from my permanent residence of Harlem, NYC) and have another month to go. Been writing, chilling, working with different artists / musicians, researching, meditating, experimenting a lot and want to reveal some of what I’ve been up to. I will be releasing a new joint every Sunday at 11 AM EST. Tell your neighbor.

GOLDEN LAKES(prod. Ohbliv)

The first full-length from Mr. Lif & Akrobatik (The Perceptionists) in a dozen years reflects the struggles and near-death sagas that struck them. During that span, Lif miraculously survived his tour bus plummeting over a 38 foot cliff. Akrobatik weathered a sudden aortic rupture and emergency open-heart surgery. The impact of those experiences forced the former Def Jux duo to contemplate fate, luck, and their own place within a world spinning out of control. 

But their ability to survive has allowed them to thrive. They’ve harnessed a radiant hard-won optimism that refuses to flinch from the evils of existence. From the album’s first track, “Early Mourning,” Akrobatik asserts that courage comes from within, but reflects on the millions of young black men sent to premature graves. He considers whether gang affiliation is inherent in their souls, or more likely, whether things would be different if these neighborhoods were well lit and effectively policed. 

If turmoil and inequity currently wrack the globe at record levels, Lif’s verses seem more prophetic than ever. His verses offer searing indictments of corporate and political corruption: corporations oppressing local farms, governmental duplicity in dealing with big pharmaceutical companies, and the crooked brutality of cops who get away with shooting unarmed black men. 

On “Hose Down,” the pair brilliantly intersperse news reports from the MLK-led Birmingham protests of 1963 with the internecine problems of the present—where a traffic stop can still lead to a funeral. It’s as poignant of a polemic as you’ll find, but blended with a danceable Caribbean lilt. 

With the Perceptionists, the personal is political and vice-versa. Akrobatik rhymes about his “desire to breathe in the sun before my skin dries out” but still refuses to be “the coward in a pretend hide out.” On “Lemme Find Out,” they kick ingeniously sinister dystopian horror raps about our grotesque addiction to technology. There are love songs over beats that sound like they could’ve been on Madvillainy, stories of cypher demolitions of would-be challengers, and dirty ass rhymes over dirty ass drums—as The Perceptionists sagely insist, that’s all the world really wants. 

It’s music from deep in the trenches, songs that confront the blitzkrieg of bad news but offer light at the end of the bombardment. If you listen closely, you can intuit a profound story of friendship and camaraderie between Lif and Akrobatik—lifelong friends trading bars with the chemistry of Tip and Phife, Andre and Big Boi, Erick and Parrish. They’re mortal men who made mistakes, gained experience, and obtained wisdom. This is Resolution.

Out Of Control

Yo OGV Family, it's been a long time since we released anything on OGV, and we apologize! 
In order to forgive us, nothing beats a comeback with a soulful & groovy production of the Connecticut's very talented producer, Maverick Soul for the second time!

There's something indefinable and unique that you can recognise in every single Maverick Soul's production and we would love to share one of them with you.

If you don't know him yet, Maverick Soul is based in New Haven.
This jazz training pianist is incredibly versatile and has been producing soulful sounds for the last two decades in the east coast (U.S.A) underground scene.

He signed exclusively with the London label @emceerecordings specialized in drum & bass & Jungle music, that's why you will very rarely see releases from him on other labels/collective except for a few like @Darkerthanwax & @treehouse-vibes etc..

Make sure to check his page for his forthcoming LP called "Synergy" if you dig hip-hop and soulful vibes, you will not regret it!

& of course, if you like what you hear don't hesitate to hit the like & repost button! <3
