With DAMN being all about nobody praying for Kendrick Lamar, the TDE emcee keeps that theme going on the Black Panther soundtrack alongside The Weeknd with “Pray For Me.”
Apathy has long been one of the more underrated emcees in hip hop. But with a catalog full of dopeness and a new album on the way titled The Widow’s Son on March 2nd, Ap drops “I Keep On” produced by Pete Rock and featuring Pharoahe Monch. Hit play and get your neck snapping.
Norway producer ChanHays dropped an exceptional project last year with Here that many people probably slept on. But the producer stays at it to get the word out as he drops a video for the Skyzoo assisted song “Of The Essence (Time).”
KXNG Crooked doesn’t give you much time to breathe between songs as the artist formally known as Crooked I teams up with Aneesa Bradshaw to tell the tale of love gone wrong on “Bianca.”
It’s the return of PRhyme, y’all! After killing the game with their first album, Royce 5’9″ and DJ Premier are back at it with PRhyme 2 dropping on March 16th (pre-order here). For this go around, the duo will sample work from Antman Wonder for the entirety of the album. To start the rumbling, Preemo and Nickel team up with Dave East for “Era.”
This isn’t for the emcees who are faint of heart.
“Tough Guy” is the first new track from legendary NY emcee squad The Arsonists (D-Stroy, Q-Unique, Freestyle, Jise and Swel) since the turn of the millennium. Also featuring a guest verse from Vinnie Paz (Jedi Mind Tricks, Heavy Metal Kings) “Tough Guy” is one of six new tracks recorded for the forthcoming double album that will be released on CD/digital editions via Below System Records (Verbal Kent, Superior, Masta Ace, Pearl Gates). Dropping on February 16th the double album will include a deluxe edition of the group’s classic debut album As The World Burns (first released in 1999) which yielded such underground anthems as “Blaze,” “Halloween” and the “Session.”
It will also include Lost In The Fire, which will include the six newly recorded tracks as well as many unreleased and rare gems with appearances Ill Bill (La Coka Nostra, Non-Phixion), J-Live, High & Mighty and Mass Influence.

After hearing Skyzoo pay homage to Fredro Starr’s Bamboo from “Strapped,” the group reached out to the emcee to get him on their song “I’ma F*ckin Rockstar.”
“We linked with Skyzoo after we heard the song ‘Bamboo‘ on his Peddler Themes EP; he was basically paying homage to my character in the movie Strapped,” Starr told XXL. “The next day we reached out, ‘I’ma F*ckin Rockstar’ was a perfect fit for Skyzoo! People can expect boom-bap mixed with guitars, but it’s what people wont expect that makes this album dope!”
Listen to it now.
Ras Kass, J57 and El Gant will finally drop their Jamo Gang project on 2/2 and as the day draws near, we get a new joint featuring Snak The Ripper titled “The Alter.”
