We had this idea while in the studio to do something cool for Bob Marley’s birthday, so we got to work. The result was this dope version of Bob Marley’s classic “Three Little Birds” where my boy Robby Hunter delivered some organic composition and I kicked a quick freestyle.

You know what? I give. This is West Palm Beach emcee Will Brennan’s dopest cut yet and it features production and singing from his crooner cousin Somong. Need a history lesson that you can rock to? Press play and thank DJBooth for the heads up.

Remember that single from Common, the one off The Dreamer, The Believer produced by No I.D.? Well the MMG emcee Stalley decided to spit a few bars over it as we wait for Savage Journey To The American Dream!.

The homie Emilio Rojas jumps on a track with Al-Doe off his Nose Candy project, pretty dope if you ask me.

Here’s another track from my upcoming project The Brenton Brown Affair. The first time I heard this track, I knew I had to lay some vocals to it. I had my production team, The R.E.G.I.M.E. flip it to add something extra and “Paradise” was born. We’re coming to the final stretch of this project, The Brenton Brown Affair and as tedious (at times) as it’s been, I couldn’t be more eager and excited to share it with you. So sit tight and enjoy the new music.

Yeah this joint goes hard. I had the opportunity to meet Sean Rose a late last year, chopped it up with him about his upcoming project, Overdrive, which is set for release on February 10th. After taking a listen to this cut featuring female Ludacris Shawnna , I’m ready to hear more.

New cut Wale featuring Rick Ross and Fabolous that was slated to appear on Ambition, but didn’t quite make it. Tagged up for a hint of annoyance, Wale is the latest rapper to join the increasing trend of songs named after athletes. I have a question though, who’s doing the Kendrick Perkins track, or should it be called Blake Griffin.

Highly coincidental at best, the Virginia emcee who goes by the moniker Kid Named Breezy makes his debut on akidnamedb. His project Snapback With a Life Full comes equipped with a track called “We Right Here” featuring Pusha T and Jigg. After giving the project the good ol’ skim through, there are a few gems. Hit the jump for some more info on K.N.B. and the download link.
For his first appearance on akidnamedb, Bronx-emcee Chaundon drops this cut as part of his #GoldenEraMondays series. Frankly, he got me with the SWV sample. Sidenote: This is what SWV looks like today.

J. Nolan’s cousin, Yung B Da Producer just hit me with this self-produced boom bap of his upcoming debut The Last Poet and it caught my attention initally because he has an uncanny vocal similarity to AZ and Canibus. Skeptical? Listen below.
If you haven’t heard of Rockie Fresh, now is a good time to get acquainted, because after listening to Driving 88 (available for download below), I’m sure he’ll be around for a while. Peep the footage from his mixtape release party where King Louie and Phil Ade made the guest spots.

I had a chance to catch up with one of Florida’s best upcoming experimental hip hop acts – Niko Is of the group Great People. You heard it here first — keep your eyes on this kid! His sound is indie and his flow is straight ridiculous. Looking forward to seeing whats in store for NIKO IS in 2012. xoxo – JReese Read more »
