one. love

This will be the last playlist of 2016. I'll be preparing to bring you great content in 2017 over the next few days and I'm excited for things to take off. So while you're driving to go see your family for the holiday, take a listen to some lyrical tracks from Ben Kerns, Taiyamo Denku, and MeRCY. Or you could turn up and have some fun with music from Baegod & Sbvce or cruising around with Kris Tru. These are my favorites from the inbox and around Soundcloud for this week. I can't wait to see you win in 2017.

The Day It All Changed (Prod by Kane Beatz)

Electric Elements' new single - 'Give It All I Got' - is about fighting through the issues in life that will always bring you down. If you "Give It All You Got" you will always make it out the other end.

Give It All I Got (Single)

Writing this track I tried to put myself in the shoes of someone experiencing warfare in the dark ages. As a teenager I was fascinated by medieval battle, tactics and strategy. I played Age Of Empires 1 and 2 to death and read The Tales Of Redwall and other such medieval fiction.

The beat is a Gramatik track in which he has sampled Knights Of Cydonia by MUSE. There's a massive break between my two verses but I love the Gramatik remix so much I decided not to edit it down.

XUITCASECITY & Pur3 - Priceless

With a stomping, piano-freaked backdrop laced by producer Solidified, MeRCY returns as Tony Montana with force on “The Basement.” It is the first single off his upcoming project Montana Live Forever: The Lost Keys, and it proves to be an anthemic classic that the streets and Hip Hop would respect to this day. Flaunting a smooth-but-menacing flow, MeRCY’s takes it back to the basics with lyricism on “The Basement” as played as a prototypical modern age brag rap. It’s a perfect combination of hard hitting production and classic penmanship. The record is giving you fair warning for what's to come. Just a reminder to not go to the basement if you're not ready for the real.
