Been a minute since we’ve heard from State Of The Artist. Courtesy the good folks at Members Only, stream and download SOTA’s latest single, “High In The Air” (featuring Sol). A smoothed-out love jam to cure your end of Summer blues.
Hurricane Irene came and went with nary a disruption in this blogger’s life. Well, if you don’t count being unable to leave the house for about 24 hours a disruption. In any case, New Yorkers persevered as usual.
Now back to regularly scheduled programming: new music from Sonny Bonoho featuring Playboy Tre and Rudi Deville. “Super Cool” (produced by Trox) is the most recent drop from Sonny’s next album, the Jermaine EP.
“The G.O.A.T.” is the first drop from One Be Lo’s massively anticipated next album, L.A.B.O.R. (Language Arts Based On Reality). While I’ve always severely disliked the G.O.A.T. acronym (Because who can tell, really? It’s so subjective.), I do think One Be Lo is a Great MC and it’s cool having him as an honorary member of the SEA hip-hop scene. Greatest of all is the beat by Vitamin D. It knocks in the way vintage DJ Premier beats used to knock. As far as I’m concerned, this is how all hip-hop should sound.

The studio version of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ new single, “Can’t Hold Us” just hit the information highway. The ink is still hot over at XXL. Now that, Seattle, is how to drop a one-off.
Luck-One wastes no time between his proper solo debut LP, True Theory, and his next project, the King of the Northwest mixtape. “Breakthrough” is the first single.
More real life talk from Tacoma Red Wing pilot John Crown. Mike Weed on the beat. Now where’s that Coffee & Beats joint?
The track artwork alone makes this worth the listen. Classic Jake boom-bap and in-the-wind Grynch flow, notwithstanding.
