Famed producer 9th Wonder is back with Zion VII. He dropped the predominantly instrumental hip-hop album on Friday, November 4th via his very own Jamla Records. I say predominantly because the first seven tracks are regular songs with vocals by Swank & King Draft.
In addition to Swank & King Draft, the project also features The Jack Moves, Jalisa and Datsunn. As we’ve come to expect from 9th Wonder, he delivered an exceptional body of work; something that all true hip-hop lovers will appreciate. Download Zion VII here.
The official after party for The RNB Experience AFROTECH is scheduled for Thursday, November 17, starting at 9:00pm CST. It will be held at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q – 801 Red River Street – in Austin, Texas.

In 2012, hip-hop star Lecrae – who is a native of Houston – elevated the status of Christian rap with his mixtape Church Clothes. Downloaded more than 100,000 times in the first 48 hours, the mix was instrumental in cementing the rapper’s position in two genres: secular and gospel rap.
Fastforward to 2022, and a now established Lecrae, has just released part four of that initial compilation. Church Clothes 4 was published on November 4, 2022, via Reach Records, an imprint which is co-owned by Lecrae. It has a total of 13 songs with several noteworthy collaborations: PJ Morton, Andy Mineo, Nobigdyl, Jordan L’Oreal, Jon Keith, A.I. The Anomaly and WHATUPRG. Click here to check it out.
