Deli
Heat! Fresh outta SevSeveer’s kitchen repping Chicago/Champaign-Urbana. This fellow producer has always impressed me with super on point drums, ill samples, dope chops and the right amount of grit.

Paint By BPM
I made this mix in 07 as a Christmas gift to my sister who likes to paint. It’s a mix of downtempo, hiphop, a little funk and quotes to inspire visual artists. Since then it’s gotten a few features on blogs, sites, and took on a life of its own on Soundcloud. It’s weird getting such great response these days on an older mix but shit, I’ll take it! Really happy to see one of my works stand the test of (a short period of) time.
The A.R.M. ft Brother Ali - Heaven Only Knows
Track with my guy Krukid and his crew The A.R.M. (Krukid, Manifest and Budo). Got a guest verse from Brother Ali and the video is sick! It’s been out for about a month or two but still hot, peep!
I’m a Keith Murray fan and used to really dig Canibus (Second Round KO, 100 bars) but was thrown off by this one hiphopsite interview I read and haven’t really peeped him since. Here’s a new cut with the both of them as “Da Undergods”. The beats pretty hype and it’s dope to hear ‘em just flip. Don’t really know where I can drop this, but the cut takes me back to when I used to spend a lot of time thinking of ways to diss a rapper.
Ro Knew - High Times in Low Places
Ro Knew - High Times in Low Places LP
My guy Ro Knew out in Oakland (via Chicago) recently released an LP. Awesome lineups, dope beat selection and got Ro Knew’s charmful debauchery throughout. Album art’s on its way to be a cult classic. I got to do some scratches on his cut with Qwazaar of Typical Cats and more recently Dirty Digital called “Rebel to the Grain.” Cop it!
Big Boi ft George Clinton & Too $hort - For Your Sorrows
Digging this new Big Boi ft George Clinton and Too $hort cut that’s circulating around. Wish that double time drum loop stuck around a little longer, really moves the track forward after the hook. Let me know what ya think.
