"Now On" by Ransom ft Vado & Chinx Drugz

"I'm really the most, pop the tequila they toast/

I'm live in the hood, but I'll appear in the ghost/

Niggas declare me the GOAT, bitches be clearing they throat/

Haters be swearing I'm broke, I disappear in a boat/"

I fucking hate the chorus to this song. But Vado and Ransom both murder this shit, and the beat's pretty dope too. Check it.

"The Imperial" by Statik Selektah ft. Action Bronson, Royce da 5'9" & Black Thought

"I know I'm sorta pompous, no type of moral compass/

Go right the fuck up in your mouth like I'm the orthodontist/

Some rappers is just startin out, but me I'm more accomplished/

The imperial Black Thought from the foreign objects/"

This shit is dope. A nice boom-bap beat that perfectly suits the style of all 3 of these raw emcees. Black Thought got twice as much airtime as the other two, but I ain't complainin' one bit. Check it.

"Fear" by Tech N9ne [Music Video]

"A stranger to the one who raised us/
Nameless to the one who raised us/
Back to the place where it all began/
I'm seeing heaven but I fear it's the end/"

For how much I love this song, I feel guilty I haven't blogged this yet. But it's never too late to share  something dope. This is definitely my favourite cut from Tech's latest collabo album, "Strangeulation". This video's one of the better ones from Tech and may be more powerful for fans who know Tech's life through his music. Check it.

TeamBackPack presents Mission Underground ft. A-1, Anilyst & Locksmith [Video]

"You keep droppin albums and CDs, we get it, you workin, you writin/
But it's sorta like Rihanna's titties, we seen em, there's no more excitement/
You tweet and you post and you boast and you hostin these legion of students/
You ??? in all this attention but no-one believes in your music/"

This cypher is dope. All 3 of these guys are very lyrical, and aside from Locksmith fuckin with the mic stand, there's not a dull moment. Check it!

"Moving Along" by Merkules [Music Video]

"Fuck a strategy, I gradually have to be/
Who I am, you ain't them you an actual masterpiece/
I don't rap for the cash, I'd rather get back to my family/
Make my grandparents happy and have em travel the map with me/"

Here's some raw Canadian shit for ya. Merkules is a beast, even on his less hype tracks. This is one of them but he has some pretty sick rhymes in both verses. Check it!

"No Comin Back" by Serial Killers (Xzibit, B-Real & Demrick) [Music Video]

"Say I'm bout to overdose like Anna Nicole/
Plus the devil already got one hand on my soul/
Should I stand on my toes? Cuz I'm walkin on a tight rope/
Thin line between yours & mine when the nine blow/"

Serial Killers must've had a successful European tour, cuz the footage serves for 90% of this video. I love this beat n the chorus on this track, n they all have decent verses. Check it!

"The Demon's Blade" by Army of the Pharaohs [Music Video]

"When I click mine, your whole clique dyin'/
Flickas flyin, ricochet through hips and hit spines/
Bulldozer through ya house, Celph'll pave the way/
He the hardest non-graffiti artist that sprays a K/"

Army of the Pharaohs just dropped this video to a track from their recently released "In Death Reborn" album. This one's gotta more upbeat feel than AOTP is normally rappin over, and Vinnie wore his nice shirt to match the vibe lol. This is some straight hip-hop shit. Sick sample & drums, no chorus, just straight spittin! Check it.
