Mos Def "Quiet Dog"

Shazam, more ish off The Ecstatic. This would be the 2nd single, and it's fly.

MF DOOM "Ballskin"

"lacking swing but that banjo's so relaxing"

Yesterday was one of those days that fate was at my mercy. I queued up Operation Doomsday on the iPod and was thinking about how I hadn't heard much from DOOM since this summer. I don't usually even play DOOM either, it was just one of those days. Then, when I got back from class, "Ballskin."

Mickey Factz "Live from the Black Apple"

"nightmare but i'm what your girl dream about"

Ah, this is that heat that makes me miss the Leak every week. Mickey is by far not going away in the new year. I've already replayed this one a couple a times.

Charles Hamilton "Most Likely to Succeed"

"then there is me, using music as my therapy"

The 2DB put their - and most of the NMC's - feelings toward Charles aside and threw up a new joint off his imeem page. Sonic actually name drops Jim Carey's Cable Guy in this one. Sounds like Hamilton music and I like that.

Listen/Download "Most Likely to Succeed"

Mos Def "Brooklyn We Go Hard" & "Casa Forte" Live

"medina masterminds it"

Listen to how Mos murks the Jiggaman's track. "Casa Forte" is also a solid outing and should be featured on The Ecstatic, whenever that comes out [sorry for no download though]. Always nice to hear Mos rap again, even though I hate it when people say that kind of shit. Both these are from a Highling Ballroom show.

Nas "Fear of Mandingo" & "Something Foul" No Tags/DJ

Yes, I know I just posted this up yesterday, but this is tagless, which means way better. Also, a cleaner version of something foul which hit the interwebs a whiles back.

Here's the second best thing, behind Chubster Records, to come out of Atlanta as of late with the video for his single.

Normally I wouldn't post something like this up, however, I support Shawn Chrystopher and the I.W.G. movement, plus they sent it over and I want to be on their good side.

Young Chris Feat. Wale "Searching"

"i never claimed to be a street dude
only time i bent over pots was making cheap noodles"

While I'm on a Wale kick I'll throw this that I missed last week. Young Chris did this during his 30 day, 30 verses session.

Paper Route Recordz Feat. Wale & Colin Munroe "Don't Go" Diplo Remix

"see it's your first time, girl you's a damn lie
girl who you think you tricking, i put my whole fist in"

Colin Munroe joins in with Wale on the joint produced by Diplo, a.k.a. Mr. "Paper Planes." Last time Colin got on a track with Wale I was jamming. That is "Will I Stay" with Dallas Austin if you were wondering.

Charles Hamilton Feat. Gerald Walker "Starchasers"

"sort of like mase before he went pastor, or sort of like 50 cent before he went asshole"

I've never listened to Gerald before, but he's from Chicago and FSD cosigns him so I'm giving him a lookout for this track that was he was supposed to be on for the It's Charles Hamilton mixtape. The song was already good and this doesn't ruin it either.

Nas "Fear of Mandingo" & "Livin' It"

"i think a pimp's a black man's ancestor"

The first track got attention back when Untitled was still a work in progress and was being referred to as "Fear of the Black Man's Penis." Nas has always had a way with words.
