Mixtape Movements: @ArkHouseMusic Presents: @Mr_K_Green a.k.a Sosa – Made In America

Posted on February 16, 2015 by swadedavillain

Armed with gritty lyrics and top production is Brooklyn bred Producer/MC Sosa with his new project, “Made In America“. Released through the newly formed ArkHouse Music Group, this is described as a conceptual album boasting 8 tracks filled with dope lyrics described as “90s Boom Bap mixed with Coke Rap”, and awesome sampled production that reveals 90’s Hip Hop influences. If you’re a fan of that “First Coast” movement and none of that filler music, this is for you. Honestly, I’m waiting to hear Mobb Deep, Kool G Rap, Rseenal, Five Steez and even AZ jumping on some of these tracks. Check out the project below and share your thoughts in the comments section.

NEW MUSIC: @KashKapri X @Shotti48 – KASHFLW

Posted on February 9, 2015February 9, 2015 by childoflaluna

Playing on the word KA$HFLW, aside from the cliché, it directly creates a call to action for Kash Kapri who actually leaves room for Imije to have his own distinct flow on the track. It’s quite obvious that the artistes never really parted ways because they complement each other well (hook).

Personally, I believe the bass on the track could be tweaked in addition to having the sonics turned up for my preference (I’d add it to my vehicle turn up playlist at that point lol). Gaz beats did a good job producing/mixing, my question is was there mastering done and if so, who did it? There is a level of evolution to be seen here overall. The track cover is dope; if nothing about your music is good, the one thing that can be used to speak otherwise is PROPER PACKAGING. Flow on point, lyrics on point. 876 Hip-Hop never disappoints.

NEW VIDEO: @Acmatic x Mortimer – Free Jane

Posted on February 3, 2015July 30, 2019 by swadedavillain

Free the herbs! Today’s new video comes from Acmatic and they’re all about Jane. Titled “Free Jane” and features Singer Mortimer and King Lopo with the verses, they are advocating for the legalization of Marijuana, speak on the possibilities of its use and how it can change lives financially. In the video, Marijuana is personified at times wearing chains and embracing Lopo while he raps. A great effort here as the song has been previewed for months and seeing that the legalization of Marijuana in Jamaica may see the light of day, this is a proper song to get the people listening. Whether you smoke it, drink it, wear it, or even like drawing it, check out the video below and share your thoughts in the comments section.
