"Definition" by Malik B (Produced by Mr. Green)



"I'm from an age of relevance, based on benevolence/
Laced with intelligence, grace like an elephant/
Cooler than a pelican, I still remain elegant/
?????? ya block never sell again/"


Malik B of the legendary Roots crew has teamed up with Jersey producer Mr. Green for this single entitled "Definition". It's got a simple boom-bap beat to it, some simple scratching in the chorus, and some raw vocals from Malik B.

"Your Honor" by Fat Joe ft. Action Bronson



"CO's slide me cell phones, speak Italian/
With my capo, Jesus medallion's extravagant/
Sittin' in the Porsche like I'm Tony M/
Niggas try to X me out, shoot me off the podium/"

Another mixtape that's released recently is Fat Joe's "Darkside III". I haven't had the chance to listen through this one yet, but I just heard this one featuring Action Bronson, and it's pretty dope. DJ Premier on the beat which makes it even better. Chiggy check!

"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.

"Seen Some Things" by Caskey ft. Rittz



"So sick of feeling disconnected/
Every day I wake up pissed, feeling misdirected/
You ever been lost like you didn't know the reason you was still here/
And you getting flashbacks in the wheelchair/"


I originally checked this track out to hear Rittz' verse, but I was feelin' Caskey's parts as well. I ended up checkin' his "Transient Classics" mixtape, and a few songs aren't really the kind of rap music I'm into, but there's a few songs I like. Regardless of it all, he's got some dope lyrics and his flow's nice. I'm just not a fan of some of the clubbish beats which kinda ruin certain songs for me. But you can click here to download the mixtape to listen for yourself since my opinion doesn't mean shit lol.

"September 3, 2013" by Promise NYC



"Niggas think they Suge or Puff, but they really Sugar Puffs/
Poppin' mollys, now they think they Pac in Cali/
Mockin' the style of Makaveli, lock me in a cage with a crocodile/
I'll come out smilin' like Miley/"

Here's another crazy freestyle by PromiseNYC which is once again, named after the date. And still has more replay value than 90% of the bullshit out there. This guy's fuckin' crazy, and if he's not planning on keepin' his drops consistent, he's spoiling his fans right now haha. This one's over a Busta Rhymes beat if I'm not mistaken. Check it.

"Drug Shit" by Action Bronson



"Get my nuts out your mouth, let me breathe for a minute please/
Your life is cheap like a hooker in the Phillipines/
About to be a huge star and I'm still in Queens/
You on the shelf like a figurine/"

New Action Bronson shit. Don't really follow this guy much, but I thought this song was dope. I like the beat and Bronson kills it lyrically while still maintaining his sense of humour. Check it.

"September 2, 2013" by PromiseNYC



"How can an angel survive in this world of monsters/
If God's real, when I die it's gonna be awkward/
Sayin' prayers to somebody who ain't playin' fair/
You really think God's protecting you? Why you still scared?/"


I think this might be the first PromiseNYC post on this page, and it's long overdue. PromiseNYC has been around for quite a while, and randomly pops up outta nowhere with new dope music. His style is one of a kind. In the future, this track's probably the only thing I'll remember of September 2, 2013.
