Villain Park - Un Explanatory
Villain Park - Un Explanatory
Sounds like: The Pharcyde, People Under The Stairs
By Jason Grishkoff on Aug 11, 2015 | I stumbled upon Villain Park's "Un Explanatory" while at the hands of SoundCloud's auto-generated playlists and it stuck. Given that the song is only one year old, there's something refreshing about its throw-back vibe, reminiscent of a bygone era i... read more →

By Jason Grishkoff on Mar 30, 2015 | Baton Rouge-based artist Adam Dollar$ caught my attention with a retro-sounding hip-hop track that meshes the best of classic hip-hop with today's modern production and topics. Given that the young emcee released an EP as recently as January (you ca... read more →

Slum Village - Get Dis Money (Tom Misch x Jordan Rakei Remix)
Sounds like: Souls of Mischief, The Pharcyde
By Jason Grishkoff on Feb 11, 2015 | We already know Tom Misch likes his hip-hop (check this remix of The Sugarhill Gang), so seeing a new jam pop up in my SoundCloud feed today came up as a pleasant gift.

Joey Bada$$ - Paper Trail$
Joey Bada$$ - Paper Trail$
Sounds like: A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul
By Jason Grishkoff on Jan 23, 2015 | What's it sound like when a rapper in 2015 takes it way back to the early 1990s? Probably a whole lot like Joe Bada$$'s "Paper Trail$." The song came to my attention by means of a post on Hilly Dilly, who praised the young rapper's raw talent while ... read more →

By Jason Grishkoff on Dec 16, 2014 | Oh man, is this a groovy mashup or what? Tom Misch has been making waves lately for his collaborative EP w/ Carmody, but what you may not know is that he occasionally dabbles in hip-hop remixes. Case in point? This remix of Busta Rhymes' "Ill Vibe.... read more →

Mercury Waters - Monaco (Prod. Robot Orchestra)
Sounds like: Capital STEEZ, Madlib, Zikomo
By Dylan Heneck on Apr 14, 2014 | Well I'm going to keep this review quick, just like this track. It's under a minute which means there's no reason you shouldn't listen to it. One of my favorite aspects of Soundcloud is that random hip-hop gems get reposted onto my feed, so credit d... read more →

Public Enemy - He Got Game
Sounds like: Buffalo Springfield, Ice Cube, EPMD
By Philip Friedman on Jan 9, 2014 | I don't know if you're a basketball fan, but this Friday the Miami Heat and the Brooklyn Nets are going to be wearing some special jerseys with their nicknames on the back.  Of course, Lebron James' jersey is going to embroidered with "King James," b... read more →

J Dilla - Diamonds
J Dilla - Diamonds
Sounds like: Madlib, Alchemist, House Shoes
By sweeney kovar on Aug 2, 2013 | When I first encountered J Dilla (or Jay Dee) as an MC, I was at my lyrical-miracle backpack peak. I practically walked around like Pig-Pen with headphones, mad real son. So you can understand the quixotic position I found myself in when the producer... read more →
