Nu Era is a local rap conglomerate composed of three MCs from various groups including Dyno Jamz, Hush’d Puppies and 5 and Brown. Go here to learn more.
Detooz Films blesses the crew with a hyped and raw video for their track “Nu Tang” (featuring 425 cul de sac spitters, Kung Foo Grip). Lyrical miracles abound. Get Nu Era’s debut album, Sink or Swim, below. I like this shit right here.
Never heard these cats until I caught wind of them over on Andrew Matson’s excellent Seattle Times blog, Matson on Music. Their brand of slacker/stoner/college dude rap would be tiring if it weren’t for the duo’s legitimate microphone skills and well-attuned ear to 90’s West Coast underground.
Check the entertaining clip for the break-up track, “Nothing At All” below, then download the crew’s free EP, SSHH!! at their Bandcamp space, here.
