This week’s underground hip-hop track of the week is Puddinhead from Lone Wolf’s new album “Sum And Belief Are The Lone Wolf,” which I been bumping all week. The album is real chill and laid back, and nice to throw on at night after work and shit. I like Puddinhead because it’s basically a track contempating how a person gets older in hip-hop … something I deal with also. Click below to listen to the track:

This week’s hip-hop quotable is k-os’ Mr. Telephone Man from his latest album “Yes!” It was very difficult to pick just one track to feature from this album, as I have a different favorite pretty much every day, so I chose Mr. Telephone Man for my hip-hoppers that want k-os to rap more. This track has a dope beat and a couple dope verses, and I’m still trying to figure out what it means – though I do have a couple theories. Maybe you can help? Click below to listen to the track:

This week’s underground hip-hop track of the week is Kats and Domer’s Never, off their mixtape “Almost Fameless Volume 3,” which you can download for FREE here. I basically like this track because of the dope beat by UK producer Miss Tofelees, and because of the two tight verses dropped by the emcees. Click below to listen to the track:

This week’s quotable track of the week is dedicated to my homie FatherTime, who could probably relate to the song’s lyrics, and who could definitely use a little theme music right now. Mr. Lif’s The Sun is probably my favorite track from his new album “I Heard it Today,” which just keeps getting better every time I hear it.
Not only is The Sun an uplifting track that could make you feel better about having to make tough and often unrewarding decisions, but it’s also available for a FREE download at Amazon right now! Click below to listen, and click the following link to download for FREE: Download

This week’s hip-hop quotable track of the week is Comin’ Up featuring verses by Grouch, Eligh and guest emcee Mistah F.A.B. I have been bumping Grouch & Eligh’s “Say G&E!” nonstop this week, and this is one of the tracks that keeps getting replayed in my iPod. All three emcees have intereting interpretations of this track, and lay down three dope verses. Click below to listen:

This week’s underground hip-hop quotable is Leave ‘Em Behind, a track from DJ Smut Villain’s upcoming mixtape “World’s Strongest Millionaire.” Leave ‘Em Behind features NYC emcees Domer, Kats and Jake Lefco, each dropping a nice verse over a melodic beat. Click below to listen to the track:

This week’s underground hip-hop quotable track of the week is the title track from Hasan Salaam’s album “Children of God.” It was hard to pick just one quotable from this album, because Hasan lyrically spills his guts on basically every track. Children of God is a great example of this: No chorus, no hook – just 3-and-a-half minutes of conscious storytelling flow. Click below to listen to the track:

This week’s underground hip-hop quotable of the week is brokeMC’s Every Damn Day People, which is one of my favorite tracks from his new album “Seeing Things.” I like this track because of it’s infectious chorus and lyrically hitting verses. Click below to listen:

This week’s underground hip-hop track of the week is Cymarshall Law and Mr. Joeker’s Out of the Rain featuring Mary Lou on the chorus. This song is one of very many dope tracks from Cymarshal Law and Mr. Joeker’s “Hip-Hop in the Soul” – which I’ve been bumping nonstop lately. Out of the Rain is a inspirational feel-good track, composed of three verses about people who overcame hardshops to find happiness and success. Click below to listen:

This week’s underground hip-hop quotable of the week is the Metermaids’ Thinking About Jacksonville. This track is from the group’s new mixtape “Nightlife in Illinoise” – which you can AND SHOULD download for FREE here. “Nightlife in Illinoise” is made up of remixes from the Metermaids’ spectacular 2008 album “Nightlife” and Sufjan’s Stevens’ “Illinoise,” and Thinking About Jacksonville is the remix of Think About It, which is one of my favorite tracks from the album.
