Yesterday (December 15th) I made a post talking about the one good thing that covid19 has done for a music addict like myself; and that is to inspire some of music’s best MCs, lyricists, songwriters, artists etc. to start creating again.

That being said, KRS-One aka hip-hop’s teacha, is back in the booth! I am learning that the legend has a new album coming on December 21st titled “Between Da Protests.”

Just a few days ago he shared the video for one of the songs that will be on that project, “Don’t Fall For It.” On the record, KRS goes all the way in on the highly charged political atmosphere in the United States. He accused both political parties of using black and brown people for their respective political gains.

It is truly refreshing to hear substantive lyrics in hip-hop again. Click here to check out “Don’t Fall For It“ and remember to like, comment and share.

Have you ever heard the saying, “there is good in everything”? Well if you haven’t you are hearing it now! With that being said, one good thing about 2020 is that it has inspired a lot of old school, veteran artists to get back in the studio and create new material for music addicts like myself.

One artist that I am personally excited to see back on the scene is hip-hop MC Xzibit. A couple years ago he partnered with B-Real and Demrick to form the super group Serial Killers. As far as I know they dropped a mixtape in 2018 and then they went quiet. That is until 2020!

In October the men released a full length album titled “Summer of Sam.” And a few days ago – December 10th – they shared the official video for the title track. If you are into hip-hop pay close attention to Xzibit‘s verse; he went hard! Click here or on the image above to check it out.

The highly anticipated album, “Man On the Moon III: The Chosen,” by the Cleveland native rapper, Kid Cudi, is now available on all music platforms. The record was officially released on Friday, December 11th via Republic Records – a division of UMG Recordings.

“Man On the Moon III: The Chosen” has eighteen tracks and it features collaborations with Skepta, Pop Smoke, Phoebe Bridgers and Trippie Redd. In an interview, which was centered around the release of this new project, Kid Cudi told Apple Music: “The whole flow of my life is like so in tune with like everything that I want it to be, I’m solid with my baby’s mom. I’m solid with my mom, I’m solid with my sister. I’m solid with my daughter. I’m solid with my nieces. Everything’s in place. And I’m happy, you know?”

With all that is happening in the world right now artists from various musical genres are releasing songs, voicing their opinion about the pandemic and the protocols being implemented by leaders to slow the spread.

“End Times” by hip-hop artists Zion I, Locksmith and Sa-Roc is one such song. On the record each MC took turn explaining why they believe that we are living in the last days. Click here to check it out.

Brooklyn MC and prominent member of The Firm, AZ, has just released a new single on his Quiet Money Direct label, titled “Different.” The laid back track with no hook highlights the thing we love most about the East New York rapper, his flawless flow.
