I'm not going to front. Referencing the movie that made me a man on your track won't guarantee you a post, but it helps. And if that aforementioned track just so happens to be some legitimately dope underground hip-hop? Well, in that case you've pretty much got some guaranteed coverage. Listen and download...
Don't look now, but Boston's on the come-up, and the often-ignored region is being lead by My City vet M-Dot. Fresh off winning Boston's "2010 Hip Hop Act of The Year" award at the 22nd BMAs and the release of his debut LP with DJ Jean Maron, "Run MPC", M-Dot is continuing his run of dopeness with a 2-in-1 video for his DJBooth exclusive freestyle "Remorseless" and "I'm ILL Russell", a remix of the commercial single "I'm ILL", both of which will appear on his upcoming mixtape "M.aking D.oubters O.ver T.hink".
Over the last few days more fresh videos dropped than I could keep up with, so I thought I'd hit you with them all in one big ass package. From Rihanna rocking the f**k out to Consequence getting his car keys stolen by groupies, it's all below. Enjoy. See more...
Haven't met your recommended daily allowance of authentic, uncut hip-hop? Bostonian emcees M-Dot and Jaysaun (of Special Teamz), along with German production trio Snowgoons (made up of DJs Det, Illegal and Waxwork), are here to help with this remix of mixtape cut "The Real & the Raw," which has just received the video treatment from Alterprod Alterbeats Watch/Download
Far from the glitz and glamour of contemporary hip-pop, in its early days hip-hop was a vehicle to describe, and overcome, the struggle of everyday life, a mission that Freestyle (of the Arsonists), Wordsworth (of eMC) & M-Dot (of EMS) take to heart on their new track "Struggle". Producer by Abnormal, this smoothly paced banger is quite simply quality hip-hop, so quality in fact that I'm just going to shut up (a rare event) and let you get to listening. Enjoy.
