Joey Bada$$ feat. Smoke DZA & Big K.R.I.T. - "Underground Airplay"
This sounds like some straight 1995 shit. Bada$$ brought it back to the 90's with his 1999 mixtape. Now he enlists Smoke DZA and Big K.R.I.T. for some grimy street shit. All three come correct but it's K.R.I.T. that outshines the competition. Love hip-hop like this.

Song of the Day
Demigodz - "Dead In The Middle"
I'm sorry, did you say you wanted more new Demigodz? I thought so. Here's the latest video. This album is going to be fire. March 5th, hurry up!

Song of the Day
Demigodz - "Summer Of Sam"
Meant to post this song last week, but went back and listened to it again today and it's just ridiculous. Demigodz Killmatic is set to drop on March 5 and I couldn't be more excited. Apathy kicks things off which is only fitting and every MC absolutely kills it on this track.

Song of the Day
Aesop Rock - "Crows 1"
Going to see Aesop in concert on Friday. Can't wait for that shit. So in the meantime I went back and listened to Skelethon last week and forgot just how dope this song is. The production is terrific, the vocals that open the song are haunting and then of course Aesop just drops gem after gem. You need to sit and listen to absorb it all, but that's typical for an Aesop track.

Blu, R.A. The Rugged Man & Tristate - "Thelonius King"
Just saw this shit on Hiphopsite and had to peep the video. This song is grimy as hell. All three come correct, but I think I'm feeling Tristate's verse the most which surprised me because I've been a big fan of R.A. for a decade-plus and Blu has been one of my favorites since Below The Heavens. This song screams underground and the beat can't be messed with. Really glad I clicked the link for this video.

Murs & 9th Wonder - "It's Over"
Got to listen to a double dose of Murs yesterday with Murs & Fashawn's This Generation and Murs & 9th Wonder's The Final Adventure. I've enjoyed the Murs and 9th collabo albums and it's a little sad to realize that they won't be making more albums together. This is the closing track off their final chapter and it's really dope. The first verse deals with an ex, the second is about former friends and the final verse recaps Murs and 9th's history together. Gotta say I love the way they closed out the song, the album and their partnership.

Song of the Day
Xzibit - "1983"
I told you I'm trying to play catch up on albums and the next on the list was Xzibit's Napalm. It far exceeded my expectations. It's not Xzibit's best effort, but since he hasn't put out a project in quite some time I wasn't sure what to expect. I need to give it another listen to determine if it's Top 10 material for 2012, but this song is certainly a winner. Real talk and heartfelt lyrics from Mr. X to the Z. Xzibit breaks down the past few years of his career as well as his family relationships.
