Anthony Hamilton - Oh Lord
Arguably one of today’s most underrated Soul-singers Anthony Hamilton has been crafting melodious tunes for over a decade now. His voice can be heard on various rap records such as “Why” by Jadakiss, “Po’ Folks” by Nappy Roots, “Sunshine” by Twista among others. However, his music is the most powerful when the Charlotte, North Carolina-native is on a soulful solo-mission as can be heard on the featured unreleased track “Oh Lord” produced by Dre and Vidal. Enjoy.

Guru has passed - Rest In Love
New York rapper Guru died on Monday morning after a grueling battle with cancer, according to MTV News. He was 43. Guru suffered a cardiac arrest in March and was in coma for a while.
According to his music partner Solar, Guru suffered from the ailment for over a year and had to undergo numerous procedures under the supervision of medical specialists. Unfortunately, the legendary MC's situation failed to yield any significant progress. Guru always kept his health issues private, but the news surfaced earlier in the year when he checked himself into a hospital.
Guru started his career as the rhyming half of GangStarr with DJ Premier. He would later go on to pursue a solo career with his well known Jazzmatazz series.

*Interview* Haziq Ali
Haziq - Freedom/Hussla (directed by 6ix Shoota) from tabi Bonney on Vimeo.
Who is Haziq Ali and how do you stand out from being another run of the mill rapper?
I'm a serial entrepreneur and motivational speaker who decided to pour the principles that have brought him success; for instance, I started my first business in Junior High and made 60 Minutes; into his music. I'm different from other rappers because I do motivational hip-hop "U-Can-DO-It Music" designed to make you feel more powerful as you sing along rather than be distracted or made to feel hopeless.
What inspired you to become a rapper?
I feel like music actually affects minds. Music more than public speaking, more than poetry, or movies, etc. Hip Hop especially, is singularly equipped to transmit information. It is education and entertainment all in one. It can be a weapon or a tool and I decided I was going to be part of the solution and choose to use mine to build.
Who would you say influenced you the most musically?
Artists like Eminem and Kanye West who rose from the underground "backpack culture" to the top of pop culture inspire me the most. However, I am also enthralled by the branding genius of phenoms like Lady Gaga.
What can people expect from you in 5 years?
You can expect me to be acting and affecting the pop culture of the world. I'll be internationally known as both a speaker and an artist.
What upcoming projects are you working on?
I'm working on my blog, pushing my album, and creating new material constantly to prepare for the times when the world is clamoring for more from me.
How can people get in touch with you?
They can reach me via Twitter just type in HaZiQ, HaziqAli.com, haziqali.wordpress.com, myspace.com/theRhyme, or via Facebook at Haziq Ali.
Thank you for taking your time to speak with us, is there anything you would like to add?

Shyne - Messiah
Shyne has officially made his uncanny return to hip-hop with the release of his new song, Messiah. The production is straight gritty, while the wordplay is commanding and parallels his trademark tone, which is still resilient after all these years. Although no official date has been confirmed, his upcoming album is expected to have some high profile guest appearances. Stay tuned.
J. Cole - We On
After dropping two critically acclaimed mixtapes Roc Nation-signee J.Cole has been hailed as the next big thing in the rap game. The featured track “We On” undermines this assumption. His lyrical delivery over this guitar-ladden instrumental is impeccable. Supposedly the track did not make the final cut of DJ Khaled’s Victory.

Travellin’ Underground : Mos Dub (Max Tannone)
Max Tannone did it again. The NYC producer and DJ who delivered us the irresistible Jay-Z/Radiohead mashup album, Jaydiohead, just dropped his latest gem. Mos Dub, pits the lyrical stylings of Mos Def against the classic sounds of vintage reggae and its latter day cousin, dub. Sure it’s a mashup album, but its organic feel makes it feel like your first time. There is something for everyone on this album. Hip hop fans will sweat Mos Def’s remixed flow and the 420 crowd will pass the dutchie to the dub hand side. Expect to see a number of these tracks on Hypem’s top 10 and on everyone’s summertime mix tapes.
Keeping it consistent, Max gives up his latest album, just like his last, for free. Get it here. Download it. Trust me.
