Kweli.

I haven't read any reviews yet and I don't have to. It's Kweli. Any sliver of doubt in his latest album Gutter Rainbows  (expected to drop in two days!!) would suggest that you really don't know who he is. This is the man that brought you Black Star with Mos Def. What do you have to prove when your name is synonymous with the phrase "real hip-hop music" huh? Absolutely nada, you just keep putting on. Phew! I really am excited for this to drop. Here's a another leak from the album, Uh Oh featuring Jean Grae (produced by Oh No of Stones Throw Records) **yeah, that downward arrow and line means download silly. :)

Ca$h and Task Force Ent.

Shout out to one of the dopest dudes doing it right now, Ca$h of Task Force Ent. As an army brat, Ca$h quickly grew accustomed to traveling the world and is now on a mission to take it over. Born in Wurzburg, Germany and later moving to the US mainland, Ca$h found his passion for music in the heart of Queens, New York. Later moving to the St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands, Ca$h quickly continued to pursue his passion for music working as a key member of the Ghost City Ent. group. With two mixtapes under his belt, Ca$h moved to Florida in 2007 where he started Task Force Ent. through which he produced his first solo mixtape The Revolution (2008). Its quick success, notably from his lead single "She Got Me Going Crazy" led to the release of his second solo mixtape Unda Da Influence, yet another display of his versatility as an artist. With a steadily growing fan base, Ca$h is still grinding; more recently his work includes opening for G-Unit's Young Buck and performing at the popular South Beach venue The Living Room. If the title of his latest EP One Way Ticket is any indication, we can expect big things from Ca$h this year. Featuring the hot track "Because I" with Jugga Rock, (the Caribbean's hottest new Reggae/Pop music artist taking over the scene) and 11 other dope tracks *do the math. Download it for free and listen for yourselves (the hyperlink duhh). **If you aren't convinced yet, let me help. The first track samples La Roux's "In For The Kill" and the last track is a damn good weed song. Peep the video. Word to everybody reppin' the 340!

The Remix

 I'm very happy with the new Kid Sister mixtape Kiss Kiss Kiss. It's the combination of good sounds that never gets old; hop hop/rap flow and tasteful, energetic electro beats with features including Gucci Mane, Nina Sky, and Caspa.  Few things make me happier than an hot track remix. That is, a hot track with a DUBSTEP remix...and in case you didn't realize, anything Caspa tweaks is worth a listen. Falling at number 11 of 13, Caspa's take on the Right Hand Hi ended up with a few repeats before I could carry on.  It doesn't hurt that she's a gorgeous ethnic blend as exciting as her genre: African American, Caucasian, and *word to my Navahoes* Native American. If that was too much, I'll take it a step further...she's sexy as fuck! Ok, before running off on an inappropriate tangent I'll just say check out the mixtape and check out my already favorited remix of Right Hand Hi (youtube link if you need the preview **hyperlinks are fun hehe). Thanks to the good folks at The Fader for the hookup!

P.S Kid Sister is a serious sweet ting...ok, I'm done. Good day to all!
