Uncommon Records artist Dig Dug caught my eye a couple years ago when he dropped “Tales From the Cafetorium” – an album he created with a bunch of elementary school students as part of an after-school program. Now the Berkeley-based underground hip-hop artist is returning with his new crew Agartha Audio, and their new album “The Hollow Earth” – which is apparently somewhat of a sci-fi concept that sticks to the overarching theme of the Reptilian Agenda. The Butterfly Effect is the first leak from that album, and features Cam on the mic with Dig Dug on production. Click below to listen to Agartha Audio’s The Butterfly Effect:

The remix is produced by Cassettes Won’t Listen. If you like this, check out Bisc’s new video for Vibrations. Click below to listen to Bisco Smith’s Time Zones Remix:

I’ve come across TRUTHLiVE a handful of times in the past couple of years, and have always been impressed with the music the Interdependent Media founder has been associated with.
