Bring It Back: Mistah F.A.B – In My City f. Royce Da 5’9″ & Talib Kweli

Since there was a bit of confusion with Mack Maine taking F.A.B off his own shit and releasing it with a different title, I figured I’d bring back the original. I Found My Backpack 2: The Lost Notebook is available now via iTunes!

OCD (Moosh & Twist) – Hold It Down (Video)

If I were to walk past Twist on any street, my last thought would be that he raps (no shots). But, assumptions are for assholes right? And while I can definitely be one at times, I always let the music speak for itself. I’ve seen the name in my inbox a few times and never got the chance to listen. That is until today, when the above video came through. Philly shit… I’m digging it. And if you are too, hit the jump for their latest project.

N.O.R.E. – Lehhhgooo f. Busta Rhymes, Game & Fozzie Bear

For some reason, I always cringe when I hear someone say “leh go”. And with that said, it’s said a few thousand times on Noreaga’s latest single. Awesome.

Mack Maine – Genocide f. Royce Da 5’9″ & Talib Kweli

What’s this? A Mack Maine joint I actually fuck with? Even his verse!? Ahh man, 2012 is real. UPDATE: Well damn, thanks to the dopeboyz in the c-section for pointing out that this is originally Mistah F.A.B’s joint. I knew I heard it before. UPDATE 2: I guess Fab is “cool with it“, so I’ll let the post ride. Do know that this IS in fact a Mistah F.A.B original and you all should cop I Found My Backpack 2.

Devine Carama – Golden Era Flow f. Rob Jackson

DC takes it back to the Golden Era on the first leak off his upcoming album, Heart Of A King.

Basically this song is ode to the “golden era” of hip hop when an artist’s concentration was on dope lyrics & great music. When your “cool” was defined by who you are and not changing who you are to try and find your “cool”. Dedicated to MCs that still focus on that pen & pad game. Lyrical, rap shit.

Tensei – One (FreEP)

The Chicago-based production duo of Simple X and Midas Wells make their introduction to the dopehouse with a brand new instrumental EP. Tracklist, stream and download link can be found after the jump.

Simple X and Midas Wells were both born and raised in the city of wind. Chris grew up in the suburbs while Midas spent many of his formative years in the south side of Chicago. X recalls his teenage years when MCing was his expression of choice but the day he touched a beat machine that all changed and production became the priority. Midas was drawn to music through summers he would spend in Arkansas visiting his grandmother and her antique piano. Though his parents were religious, he got introduced to secular music through records played by uncles and brothers. He began dabbling in production with pause tapes and a Casio SK-1.
