Review Of Real People by Dynamite
Artist: Dynamite
Track: Real People
Production:Dynamite
Backing Vocals: Rookwell
Rating: 5/5
Can't fault this track, love the production which I was suprised to hear that Dynamite had done himself, nice backing vocals by Rookwell, and Dynamite steps up to the track with a well thought out vocal, talking about the fakeness he's encountered during his time in the spotlight as one of the worlds best Drum N Bass MCs, I gotta take my hat off to him, he has managed to cross genres with no trouble and is as good over a hip hop track as he is over Dnb.
Everybody should go out and cop this track, or at least check it and see what your missing.
Quotable"You can only drive one car, you don't need four"
Its taken from his upcoming album Styles Galore which is what Dynamite has got.

Review Of Know The Names by Pro The Leader and Nova Kane
Artist: Nova Kane featuring Pro The Leader
Track: Know The Names
Production: Semantix Tha Sorcera
Rating: 4/5
This some hardcore, rappers rapper type shit, Pro The Leader comes off hard with sic wordplay, set to a hard head nodding beat provided by none other than my main muthafucka Semantix Tha Sorcera can't fault the production on this one, love the chops, sounds like an Al Green type sample hes used not sure what the track is but its the shit anyway.
Nova Kane does his thing on the second verse and comes off competent which is a hard job for anybody when placed next to pro, but he stands up well.
If your a fan of underground Wu type independant hip hop then this is for you.

Review of Triggs Vega an H By H20 and Triggs Vega
Artist: H20 & Triggs Vega
Track: Triggs Vega & H
Production: T1
Rating 4/5
H20 is a London Based MC, I like his flo, Triggs is good too. I'm feeling the production handled by T1 which reminds me a little bit of 9th Wonders more ambient productions, the chopped vocal sample embellishes the track, drums are nice. All in All this a good collaboration track, and I feel will appeal to people on both sides of the Atlantic.

Review Of Loyalty by MC Therapist
Artist Therapist
Track:Loyalty
Production:
Rating 3.5/5
This track is a throwback to a time when straight up skills and hard beats were more important than a big marketing plan, I'm feeling the breakbeat type type drums, and like the dusty production, reminds me of some of Large Professors early stuff, the track is stripped down with a funk bassline and some guitar and electric piano stabs, sometimes simple is best.
Therapist flow is tight, I like the sound of his voice, and he held my attention throughout the track.

Review Of Welcome Back by Superiority Complex
Artist: Superiority Complex
Track: Welcome Back
Production: BLACKOLOGY
Rating: 4.5/5
I first heard Miami's Superiority Complex back in 2006 when I peeped their remake of the Classic A Tribe Called Quest's Butter which I thought was one of the best remakes I've heard.
Welcome back is another well produced laid back true school number, Blackology is behind the beats, I can hear 9th Wonder, Pete Rock & Large Professor as influences, filtered bass lines, soul samples, chopped up vocals and head nodding drums, this my style of hip hop.
Iron Monk & Poisoned Fetus handle the vocal duties and do it well, the interplay is good and they both hold it down, I like the flows and the uplifting content of the rhymes.
If your a fan of Little Brother, Mr Complex, Large Professor, Reach, Inverse etc then this is for you.

Review Of Real Hustle By Soul Theory
Artist: SoulTheory
Track: Real Hustle
Production: Soul Theory
Rating: 4/5
Another soulful banger from Miami's Soul Theory. I got a myspace friend request from them Today, unlike a lot of people on myspace I check all profiles before I approve them. All the tracks on their page were tight, but it was "Real Hustle" that got me.
I love the production, nice chops, love the vocal sample, KS has nice flow that compliments Soul Theorys production, the drums are tight similar to 9th Wonders but with nice touches of reverb added to bring them out.
Again fans of Pete Rock, Xtra P, 9th Wonder, Inverse, Kosyne and that classic New York sound will be feeling this.
