Featuring a sample of Miguel‘s “ Do You” and an excellent guest verse from J. Tate Tucker‘s “Fire” wins the title of smoothest track of the week, but Bas‘ “Lit” might be a close second. Our final offering from Chitown comes courtesy of Julian Malone, who preps us for the release of his upcoming Diff.Rnt mixtape with the first single, “Tokyo.” The Michigan emcee certainly impresses on the mic as he spits over a lush, atmospheric instrumental from Sango. The ensemble provides us with bars for days as they absolutely tear through the seven minute remix of Giftz’s “Nino.” Another phenomenal number comes to us from Waldo who “Finally” makes his Hip-Hop Dojo premiere. In fact, two of the best works lyrically are featured back to back: the first one being F.Stokes‘ “1954” and the second being Psalm One‘s “Queen Until.” We also can’t ignore our newest piece from the SAVEMONEY clique. Bun B and Hit-Boy in particular come through with some surprisingly stellar verses.Ī good chunk of this week’s compilation comes to us from Chicago. On “Funeral Season” Statik and crew provide us with a few more details about the spike in violence that occurs during the hot summer months. Our fourth selection reminds us of a lesson Bay Area emcee A-1 taught us a few weeks back. This marks the second straight week that the duo has been featured in the Dojo, and we hope that streak continues going forward. Da YoungFellaz hope to take us on a trip to “New Rich City” with their latest effort. Next up to the plate is Devine Carama who hopes to enlighten his listeners through his lyrics and his flow. Looking forward to the road ahead, Mo hopes to dodge some stormy weather as he seeks the clear path towards success. We start things of with New Jersey native MoRuf, a recent college graduate who decided to celebrate by crafting a song about it. We just hope this playlist can serve as a nice break from the Arrested Development marathon we all know you’re currently having. I won’t be able to elaborate on every track today, but I would like to point out some of the standout material from this week’s collection.
Last week was all about introducing you guys to new artists, and while we do have a few fresh names around here again, you should be familiar with a majority of the lot. Despite all of those hurdles though, I’ve managed to push through to bring you all the tenth edition of the Hip-Hop Dojo. From nagging injuries to a nasty lingering cold, I’ve spent most of my week resigned indoors as I try to recover. This week hasn’t been very kind to me folks.
