Sleepsteady- Summer Over-Seize (EP)
A rather spontaneous project that was completed over the course of a few months,
‘Summer Over-Seize EP’ features production from artists overseas topped off with vocals
from the Seattle-based duo Sleep Steady.
The concept of the EP sort of plays with the idea of both physically and psychologically
traveling to foreign places: each song on the tracklist has a unique sound as each is produced
by a different artist, and each song touches on different states of mind (depression, loneliness,
jubilance and placidity).
As a whole, the EP begins with a kick, sort of jumpstarting the journey. After a change of pace
and bump in the road halfway through, the protagonists turn toward brighter days whilst still
feeling the pang of the past and eventually end the trip with a laid back, barbecue-style
relaxation back at home.

Could J.Cole Be Sitting on a Classic?
In a world where the word "classic" is thrown around recklessly.
By the looks of the tracklist and some of the songs that we have heard, do you think this
can be "classic" material? To me NO. I am human at the end of the day and capable
of passing wrong judgement. But, how can a classic hold dull singles like the Trey Songz
assisted "Can't Get Enough"and the Kanye West sampled "Workout"? Did you notice the
Missy feature. Where the hell did he dig that from? I am rooting for Cole because he is a
talented artist and if Cole doesn't do well he will be the center of SLANDER.

Murs- Dark Skinned White Girls
When I first got hip to 9th Wonder, I wanted to listen to everything that he did and
that is how I came across Murs. "Murray's Revenge" being the second collaboration
album between 9th Wonder and Murs.
Murs was just that dude. Hailing from California, he just didn't sound like the typical
California rapper. His album "Murrays Revenge" is still one of my personal favorites.
I now present to you "Dark Skinned White Girls". Murs' storytelling skills
on this joint are quite impressive. You might listen to this and think it might correlate
with the Kreyshawn and V-Nasty issue. Maybe you might, maybe you won't.
Just enjoy the joint.
