The Wreck 4-4-13
Well it’s been a long ass time since I’ve posted anything, anything at all. Hell, I’m probably a brand new person for most of you by now. Those of you that have been following this blog, or my WYDU site back in the day or Eric’s WTR site, I’ll just say “wad up”. Am I [...]

Mixtape Re-Up: Bloggerhouse presents: The Buckwild “100? Mixed by Eric. C.
NOTE I’ve received quite a few emails since we’ve become a lil’ more…ahem, active? Namely for many of the old mixes that are now down (thanks Megaupload..), I’ll try to re-up as many as I can over the next few dayz – Eric C. Honestly, before I had any clue of THIS (which is very [...]

“Basket Case” – Da Henchmen 05-da_henchmen-basket_case_feat_true_da_grynch_and_murda_one Comprised of a bunch of emcees hailing from all parts of New York, Da Henchmen arrived on the scene in ’93-’94 with the release of their EP, “Beware: Lyrically Dangerous” (on which “Basket Case” DOES NOT appear and has also sold upwards of $1,000.00!) and also released a 12?

Album of The Day: 6 Fingers & Topkat – “Mercury Retrograde”
Back in 2007, what was labeled by some as the “best debut since Nas’ “Illmatic”, Blu & Exile’s now CLASSIC LP, “Below The Heavens” arrived without much warning in the middle of a very hot summer. At the time, most recognized for his production and serving as 1/2 of Emanon (along w/Aloe Blacc) along with [...]

? of The Day: Who Is Gruff Rhino (Re: Artifacts-Ingredients To Time Travel)
“Ingredients To Time Travel” (prod.by Gruff Rhino w/co-production from Tame One) 13 Ingredients to Time Travel For those that know me, I’m a huuuuuge Artifacts “Stan”. After falling in love with the grit and ruggedness of the Artifacts’ debut “Between A Rock And A Hard Place”, I’d be a bold-faced liar if I didn’t admit [...]

“Queens Kids” -Bryant Dope (DOWNLOAD) 02 Queens Kids Found On: “Queens Kids” mixtape Paying homage to one of Hip Hop’s most influential boroughs, Bryant Dope laced this lovely Hannibal King (whom you’ll no doubt being seeing more throughout this list) instrumental with enough competent rhymes to make “Queens Kids” one of the year’s most chill [...]
Album of The Day – Robust – “Filling In The Potholes”
“Fillin’ In The Potholes” – Robust Purchase The LP HERE “Northern Soul” 03-robust-northern_soul-frb “Soloist” 02-robust-soloist-frb Prior to my learning of Robust’s “Filling In The Potholes” this past Thanksgiving, I’d never even heard of him. However, to some, Robust’ s debut 2004 release “Potholes In My Molecules” is considered to be nothing short of an independent [...]
New ‘Ish That Reminds Me Of Old ‘Ish: P. Blackk & J Rawls : Contemporary Nostalgia LP
After releasing “Blackk Friday” in 2011 under the watchful eye of Fly Union, Columbus,Ohio’s P. Blackk was looking for a new “sound”. Remaining in Ohio, Blackk made a beautiful connection with another OHIOan, J Rawls (Lone Catalysts) to craft the lovely, “Contemporary Nostalgia”, released prior to the new year on December 30th, 2012. “Contemporary [...]

Album of The Day: AUTOMATIC – “Art Imitates Life”
“Art Imitates Life” – AUTOmatic Download via “Bandcamp” or cop the vinyl via Dope Folks Yes indeed, today I spotlight, and will continue to focus on some of 2012?s most overlooked efforts throughout the weeks ahead. With that being said, some of you may recall the duo of A.P.R.I.M.E. (emcee) and Trellmatic (producer) via their [...]
Album of The Day: uMaNg – Lasting Impressions
Lesson learned, it’s never too late to peep one of the best releases of the year with less than a week remaining in 2012. As I’ve become increasingly active in the UGHH.com forums again, which can be attributed to the fact that I’m playing “catch up” with a lot of what dropped in 2012, I [...]
EP of The Day: Quartermaine – Quarter Life Crisis
As a member of the DMV’s Low Budget Crew and half of the duo Critically Acclaimed, Quartermine JUST dropped his debut on Low Budget and the notably solid Re:Definition Records prior to Turkey Day. Boasting a nice production line-up of Joc Max, Kev Brown and Quartermine himself, I was pretty amped about the release of [...]

“Prarie Dog Day” Hands down the second best LP to hit the streets this year, Onry Ozborn of Grayskul and producer Zavala dropped “ANX” in mid-summer yet it took me until the week of Thanksgiving this year to uncover this masterful, well-crafted gem. ”ANX”, which is short for anxiety, is produced unlike any other LP I’ve heard [...]
Album of The Day: Melanin 9 – “Magna Carta”
Melanin 9 a.k.a. “M9? a.k.a. “M9 Ether” recently dropped his first official debut album “Magna Carta”, and while the album will probably be unfairly overlooked (you know how us U.S. headz love UK hip hop..insert sarcasm), it’s definitely right up my alley. Mind blowing by no means, yet very solid and enjoyable, with loads of [...]
Ill Poetic – Autonomy
From the artist who’s responsible for one of my favorite albums of all-time with “The World Is Ours”, Ill Poetic re-emerges with the thought-provoking, insightful and thumping “Autonomy”. With lyrical gems in abundance, the self-produced heater (with assistance from Angelica Lee on vocals) has been on repeat #ALLDAY. Love this cat and can’t wait for [...]
