Cyrus Malachi - Hell's Garrison feat. M9 (video)

Here's a second video from Cyrus Malachi's Ancient Future album. This track sees him and frequent tag-team partner M9 drop trademark dark social commentary over eerie, atmospheric production from Nottingham's Endemic. The low budget black & white vid sits pretty well with this vibe. I believe the album is released on monday. Go Cop.

Jehst - Starting Over (video)

Bang! New material from the High Plains Drifter himself, repping a slightly more laid back flow, but still flipping a phrase like no other. Hopefully this means that the album, Dragon of an Ordinary Family, is just around the corner as well. Good times. Also, see how many of UKHH's 'famous' faces you can spot in the video...

Millennium Jazz Music - The Gathering

Millennium Jazz Music present The Gathering, a collection of great songs from one of the most promising stables around. The album features music from Deeflux, Slugga Tee, Awakening Dawn, Gadget, Skinnista, EdXL and Louis Unseen. If your fimiliar with MJM then you know what to expect if your not then expect dusty drums smooth jazz layers and creative concepts and content. Theres alot of solid tracks on the album although the length of the album gives way for a couple lacklustre tracks. However the vast majority bump along with ease and a splash of perfection [Great Expectations , Band Concept , Dont Cry , Get Away , Inspiration , Got Me Thinkin - nice flip of classic sample] check it out above or you can download it from HERE for a mere £5, the download also contains a interactive e-book filled with James Greenway's wonderfull art work.

Cyclonious - Never Lose Your Passion (video)

Heres the second video taken from Cyclonious' recent collaborative project with French producer 42nd Chamber, The Warrior & The Blacksmith. This moody offering was one of the better tracks onboard, and is pared with an equally dope slave-ship themed vid.

Chester P - New Mic Order Part. 2, out now!

Decent! Part 2 of Chester P's New Mic Order mixtape is here, basically picking up straight where part 1 left off a couple of years ago. Digital version can be purchased from Chester's bandcamp page, and apparently a physical version will soon follow with a few extra tracks. Nice.

Verb T - Start Again (Studio Footage)

Rob One - African

Here's something a little bit different. Rob One originates from Jo-burg, South Africa, but I believe has been in the UK for a while now, as The Guardian amongst others have published his work as a music critic. There is some genuinely original lyrical content on this album, such as the 2 part espionage story, Shots Fired, or Rob One detailing his struggles with learning Zulu on Broken Language. I will say that the beats aren't always to my taste, occasionally over-relying on synths, and coming off a little bland as a result. What stands out though is the conscious attempt of the MC to bring some fresh concepts. He doesn't quite nail it every time, but with topics as diverse as post-apocolypse survivor stories, and flying, on top of a few more run-of-the-mill hip-hop staples, you can only applaud the effort.

Enlish - Tender (free download)

A second leak from Enlish's upcoming album Rap Ain't Real, My Life Is Real. Here he uses the old I Used To Love H.E.R. style concept of personifying hip-hop as a female, but it is done well, and Wizard's production is typically solid. I prefer this to the previous leak from a couple of weeks ago, Brain Basher.

Verb T - Self Ish EP

I mentioned in my review of Verb T's recent album (Verb T - Serious Games (Album Review)) that he is one of the country's most consistent and hard working. Well just a couple of months after the release of that solid album, he drops another EP. Whilst this is not going to go down as some of his best work (more Spaar Zoot than Serious Games), anything with Verb's name on it is worth a listen. The stand out tracks on this entirely self produced EP are probably the Fliptrix collaboration Break Out, and the closer Start Again, which is probably the one real glimpse of Verbs at his best here.
