"StreetFighter" by emoceans.

"I couldn't let myself talk like ya talkin'/

There ain't no second guessin in the steps that you're walkin/

They say that sellin is an excellent option/

But what's the cost in the devilish auction/"

Here's some Kitchener shit for ya. This popped up on my SoundCloud feed this morning and when I heard it, I had to share it. I used to chill with these guys in high school and they make some pretty sick music now. It's dope hearing people you know killin' it. Make sure to check their page if you're feelin this one!

"Reunite for the Night" by Dizzy Wright [Music Video]

"Ain't nobody sittin on they own, 

niggas singin' songs playin' beer pong/
It's ok that we can't always do the right thing, 

cuz I heard a little laughin' make you live long/"

Dizzy Wright recently dropped a new visual for a song from his State of Mind EP. "Reunite for the Night" is one of those feel good tracks that makes you wanna get a buzz on (for me at least). So this one goes out to all my Monday night party people! Check it.

"Typical" by Wrekonize [Music Video]

"My environment is pristine, been this way since sixteen/
Drive and lean like Christine, my city's like a big dream/
And I'm just here sippin beers tryna stay conscious/
Avoidin' all the gossip and the high school nonsense/"

Just came back from visiting a bunch of Caribbean islands only to return to snow and wind in Canada. So this video is some bullshit. I hate having to see it right now, but it's a pretty dope song and I can't let the post-vacation blues get the best of me. Check it.

"That's That" by Herbal T [Music Video]

"It's like I was biting a prune/
Cuz I'll be droppin mad shit soon, ass sounding like a bassoon/
Herbal T, broke joke, money trifling but soon/
I'm tryna see that big cake like a wife and a groom/"

 

I think this guys parents had rhymes in their chromosomes. Both Herbal T and Wax are fucking beasts. I'm glad to hear a single from this guy cuz I've heard his verses on his brother Wax's mixtapes, and I've always thought he was dope. If you like rhymes, you'll like this groovy track. Check it.

"Feels Good" by Wax [Music Video]

"I know talented musicians on the ground floor/
Lookin up at me like 'what the fuck you feeling down for?'/
How come compared to smiling you always frown more/
Pussy I'm at UPS workin, wearing these brown shorts/"

The title of this song describes what it's like to listen to. It's got an uplifting beat and Wax kills it as usual. The catchy hook makes the song complete, and after murking that BET cypher, this video is perfect to re-establish why he was there in the first place. Sick track, check it.

"World Peace" by Dizzy Wright [Music Video]

"Agree to disagree/
Judge me cuz I'd rather have them legalize a plant than feed the people nicotine/
Sell the devil's juice and they gon' support it by any means/
On they TV screens, nigga please/
I represent world peace/"

Recently shared this song, and Dizzy Wright ended up droppin' some visuals for it the other day. This is one of my favourites from "The Golden Age". The video gave life to the feel-good vibe of the song. Check it.

"World Peace" by Dizzy Wright

"Man we all started from the bottom, started with a problem/
Before I was ever crawlin', I was born into my miseries/
Came out with my hidden talents, now the rest is history/
Ridin', but if you ain't providin', that don't mean shit to me/"

Dizzy Wright has a new mixtape coming up on the 19th of August, entitled "The Golden Age". He released this track from the upcoming project today and I was feelin' it. Look out for The Golden Age at http://www.myfunkvolume.com

"Roller Coaster" by Mac Lethal

"Sorry if I'm brash again, but I could give a fuck if Kim Kardashian/
 Is smashing ten Africans or any other rapper friends/
If she's getting fat again, how she keeps her lashes in/
All the cash she spends, or if she crashed her Benz/"

Not sure how much replay value this song has for me. It's still sick though, and worth a listen. The verses are tight and he makes some good points that I can relate to. Check it!

"3 Foot Tall" by Classified [Music Video]

"I freeze time like photographs, living for the moment/
I'm taking mental pictures, reminiscing while I'm growing/
When I see the light of day, right away I write away/
Cuz things I write and say give me direction like Michael Bay/"

Here's some new visuals for the cheery single from Classified's self-titled album. Check out Classified's website by clicking here.

"Switch Lanes" by Rittz ft. Mike Posner [Music Video]

"You tryna say you ain't impressed, please, save it woman/
Got you all up in the seat, getting naked, wantin/
To make out, but you better not get no make up on him/
These car jackers wanna follow me then take it from me/"

This was one of the first tracks released from "The Life and Times of Jonny Valiant". It's a good track to use for a single that'll appeal to radio listeners. It's got a smooth vibe that could totally be played on the air, and on top of that, Rittz kills his lyrics. Mike Posner did his thing as well and sets the mood for the chorus with his soft toned voice. Here's the visual for the song, which is actually a good video compared to a few that Rittz has released lately. Check it.

"Big Ships" by E-dubble

 

"I don't assume too soon, I let it marinate/
It's like an Olsen twin, it's like Mary-Kate/
It's like an Olsen twin who likes mary jane/
Even if you stumble, still bubble just like Perrier/"

I haven't heard a track from E-dubble in a while. So today I hear this new track released by him and it has such a positive feel to it. This is the kinda music I could bike to work listening to on a nice day like today. I still don't know much about E-dubble so I'ma just let the music speak for itself. Peace!

"Turnip the Beet" by Asher Roth

"Don't back down or back out, we back now/
Manny Pacquiao, knock the pretty swag out/
It's the last bout, don't ask how, without doubt/
The crowd shout wow, we'll make KRS proud/"

Yea yea, I know. We already shared this song with you a while ago. But if a video of Asher Roth roaming around a busy city in a swagalicious tiger hat doesn't entertain you, y'all need to lighten up lol. I guess today's theme on our blog so far could be described with the chorus of this song. Boom-bap, original rap. Asher kills this track, and seems like he was having a hell of a time making this video. Check it.

"Banana Goo Pie" by Sam Lachow ft. Sky Blaow, J. Byrd, Ryan Campbell

 

"My last long bitch takes fat bong rips/
She stash all zips, plus her ass all thick/
My zags all zig, and my style's solid/
Lowlife, stranger than that mash hall clique/"

Gonna be honest. I don't know shit about any of these guys. But the homie over at FORM shared this today, and I thought it was dope. It's got such a goofy feel-good mood to it, and they have decent rhymes. I don't really get why it's called Banana Goo Pie. But it's okay, we'll all get high today!

"That's What I Do" by Classified

"I'm feeling kinda famous in my hometown,

people hold me up cuz I hold em down,

I never moved away from my family,

and got the same friends since elementary"

Oh man, got home today and saw Brenton posted this new FV track and I was loving it. Then I found out Classified dropped this video for a new song off his self titled album. This one took the cake for today. Sorry FV but I loved every moment of this song, the lyrics, the instrumental, and the video too. The video was perfect. Classified is like the most real, down to earth rapper ever. He better be remembered. He's quietly fought against any stereotype you could ever hold against rap music. I'm just gonna shut up now though and listen to it again. Check it out!
