This platform has highlighted for a number of years that the Hip Hop culture is very much active in the Caribbean, and it will be for years to come. Whether your taste is in the “Boom Bap” style, or more about the “Trap” vibe, there are many who have contributed recordings that have connected with many locally, and Internationally. Legendary Queens, New York Lyricist Grafh is working on new music, and recently tapped into his Caribbean side for a collaboration called, “Something IN The Wind“.
Produced by DeSpecialist and featuring Reggae/Dancehall Artist Dre Island, Grafh shares some of his observations in his everyday life on “Something IN The Wind”. He still shows that he’s still nice with the wordplay and flow, and Dre Island’s melodic contributions make for a great listen throughout. Grafh has been one of the Lyricists to know since the mid 90s, has inspired many to pick up rapping, and has been aligned to some of the biggest names in Hip Hop. Dre Island was inspired by Hip Hop and Dancehall sounds from his early days, so this collaboration was a good one that should open even more doors.

Today’s new music is a meeting between two NY boroughs, Brooklyn and Queens. Cash Bilz released his new single “Stranded” and it features Prodigy of the legendary Mobb Deep.
