Scotland-born, Edinburgh-based hip hop producer SciFi Stu releases his fresh new single THE WILL on 26th Jan 2010.

Growing up in the 1990s, SciFi enjoyed the ‘golden era’ hip hop sound and has taken those classic elements and added his own twist to title track THE WILL. The second track on the single is The Touch which has been featured on mixtapes and radio shows around the world and its production has been compared to the 1990s Wu-Tang sound.

The Song:

Life on a road is rite of passage for every artist, and each stop on the journey leaves an indelible mark on those who pass through. Emcee and producer extraordinaire Oddisee, one third of one of 2009’s celebrated group Diamond District, is certainly no stranger to the travel game, having visited the shores of Australia, Europe, Asia, Africa and South America in the name of boom-bap. Be it the sleepy ambiance of a wayside town, or the frenetic energy of a major city, the experiences of Oddisee’s worldly adventures are channeled into his new 24-track instrumental album Traveling Man, out now digitally and available as a limited edition vinyl pressing on February 23rd. In an effort to re-imagine a trip into Gotham City, Oddisee has recruited fellow Diamond District rhyme-slinger yU as passenger for a remix to “NYC.” The Big Apple has never sounded so good, as yU laces an electric 16 bar verse over a vibrant track that captures a slice of the timeless spirit of the city. Infectious drums and soaring strings serve as a sonic travel guide through the boroughs as yU echoes the resilience of NYC, rapping that there’s “a lot more to do, but off to a good start.” Safe travels, everyone.
Oddisee’s Traveling Man is available digitally via Mello Music Group.

This week I’ll be reviewing six new projects that recently hit the ‘net/bloggerverse and/or will be landing on store shelves soon in the following order: Georgia Anne Muldrow “Kings Ballad”, Nneka “Concrete Jungle”,  Rocky Rivera “The Rocky Rivera LP”, Sade “Soldier Of Love”, Statik Selektah “100 Proof (The Hangover)” and Styles P & DJ Green Lantern “The Green Ghost Project”. For those of you new to this blog, I don’t rate albums on a scale or assign them a numerical value out of 5 or 10, instead I merely answer the all important question of “Is it worth buying or not?”. Here’s how my patented “Cop It Or Not” ratings system breaks down below:

1 (tie). “The Best” & “The Essence”-Boog Brown

Finally!! Damn, I’ve been waiting on an official MP3 for “The Essence” for nearly 3 months!! If you don’t know, or better yet, haven’t downloaded Boog’s “Grind Season Vol. I” (her mixtape with Illastrate) you need to slap yourself silly.  Not only is “Grind Season” one of (if not, THE) best mixtapes to drop just two short months into 2010, it’s also one of the better albums.  This sh*t only heightens the anticipation for Boog’s forthcoming LP with Apollo Brown as “U.P.S.”

The Song:

Diamond District’s debut In The Ruff made huge waves last year – ending up on countless year-end lists including heavyweight websites KevinNottingham.com, PopMatters.com, and more, and also continued the avalanche of well-deserved attention to the previously underrated DMV hip-hop scene. Considering the impact that the album made, remixes of some of the cuts were inevitable. A reworking of “I Mean Business” by yU (1/3 of Diamond District) surfaced in late December, and now, Canadian producer Marco Polo, who contributed tracks to Masta Ace’s A Long Hot Summer, Sadat X’s Black October and various Boot Camp Clik projects, including his own Double Barrel project with Torae, is the latest to add new flavor to one of the tracks – reworking one of the album’s top songs, “Who I Be.”
