“Hey yo, these newborns is through teething (why you say that?)
They way they gettin’ shot so frequently
You would think that it’s flu season

In what might be the oddball-est/creative, spur of the moment marketing for a show I’ve seen in a minute, Don Will’s been kidnapped…or maybe “grown-man-napped.”
Let that be a lesson to you all. Don’t accept candy from strangers & if someone approaches you, yell “STRANGER DANGER! STRANGER DANGER!” and haul ass.
Anyways, you can prolly Read the rest of this entry »
“The first single ‘Party Crashers’ reiterates the pith with a delirium of clashing cymbals and broken glass sound effects with Torae playing the disorderly patron threatening to tear the club up if he’s not on the guest list.” – TC
Respect to J. Kim, who shot over a little studio footage of DJ Spinna working on “Lyrics Is Back,” followed by the feature presentation.
Download — DJ Spinna Feat. Torae – “Lyrics is Back”

They say if you can’t beat ‘em, you might as well join ‘em. And well-worn adage serves its place in Hip-Hop music as well — especially when you have artists of similar stature looking to move past that proverbial glass ceiling. Coming off his criminally slept-on compilation Port Authority, Marco Polo, the Canadian born producer with the knack for making boom-bap beats with a touch of bass, joins forces with Coney Island rapper Torae who gave his peers a stern talking-to on his inaugural outing 2008′s Daily Conversation.

With their album Double Barrel in stores today (or iTunes holler), Torae & Marco hook up with Concept to unleash some free material to encourage you to take part in a retail sort of way. Go cop & think of it as getting two for the price of one. Read the rest of this entry »
’90′s veteran Digga drops off this single as he prepares for his upcoming album Person Of Interest, due in October. He recruits Read the rest of this entry »
Words By Jason Hortillas
Here’s a glimpse into producer Marco Polo’s studio in Brooklyn. After two seconds you know this isn’t acutally “MTV Cribs,” but a bunch of people (including myself) had to click to be sure. Read the rest of this entry »
I’m sure Jason won’t be pleased to see Sky’s appearance on another mixtape, but it’s good to see Chaundon & Torae getting some well deserved shine. DJ Concept brings together selected joints from all three artists on his latest mixtape, Three Kings. Tracklisting & link after the break. Read the rest of this entry »

The other day, we hipped you to the fact that eMC, Torae & Marco Polo were touring on the other side of the map. Well, I asked Marco to send me some flicks to share and this is what I ended up receiving…
Subj: 1st stop, Berlin, Germany. Random iPhone Pics (First Day)
Gotty,
Here’s our first day in Berlin. The show was dope and the city is

Personally, I don’t think I’d order anything that contained cheese.
