Wizdom’s own version of a Seattle rap anthem can’t outdo the poignancy of Spekulation and company’s “Home Of The Mighty” which dropped late summer and somehow managed to be both a triumphant summary of the city’s cultural touchstones and an acknowledgement of the damage much of those have wrought. Still, props to Wiz for the lovely scenery in this video and, oh hey, a Macklemore cameo! (Unsurprisingly he’s the only one not driving his own whip.) From Wizdom’s recent The Next Step.
The rapper Wizdom has a new album dropping next week called The Next Step. First up to bat from that project is his opus to the Town, “My City’s Filthy”, featuring vocal assists from Grynch and Fearce Vill (of Dyme Def), and a cinematic instrumental backdrop by D-Sane. A nice re-entry point by Wiz who we haven’t heard from in a minute.
Town producer, engineer and label honcho D-Sane turned Mack and RL’s “Can’t Hold Us” into an industrial strength sharknado. Buy it on iTunes here.

Comic book nerd and hardcore MC Ripynt is preparing a re-release of last year’s The Hurt Locker EP. Hurt Locker Deluxe will feature three new remixes, some remastered cuts, and one brand new joint. Look for that on June 26. For now, bump this new version of the title track remixed by producer/engineer D-Sane.

Grynch took to Twitter about an hour ago to drop this gem from his upcoming Perspective. Pull some change out your pocket and throw it dude’s way.
