Serge Severe & 5th Sequence – Boom Bap & Bars Vol. 1
This time around Serge Severe has linked with up and coming Hip Hop producer 5th Sequence for the EP Boom Bap & Bars Vol. 1 available May 6th. The EP is a combination of 5th’s jazzy hard-hitting production and Severe’s razor tongue.
“The EP is full of dusty samples, jazzy hooks, and lyrical dexterity that harkens back to the golden era of hiphop.”
-Ryan Feigh (Portland Mercury)

It’s quite surreal that this EP is finally out. Thank you for all of your support. I’m not quite sure how to put my sincere gratitude into words, so I won’t. I hope the music will speak for itself. If you’re unable to afford purchasing the EP, feel free to download it off of a blog or torrent. I love you all, and wouldn’t be able to do this without you. Thank you!

Jay Z – Open Letter
In what sounds like a Swizz beats flip of Al Green, Jay-Z shows he still got it.
Vinnie Dewayne – You Ain’t Goin Nowhere (Prod. Dj Cones)
Vinnie Dewayne releases his first single off of his up coming project “The St. Johns Scholar.” In this track Vinnie tells a story about being in a complicated relationship; trying to stay loyal and committed but that seems to always be brought down by distractions. Relatable lyrics, enjoy.
Marco Polo f. Talib Kweli & DJ Premier – “G.U.R.U.”
March 19th was the 3 year anniversary of GURU passing away. The MC’s are all getting on in their 30′s and some into their 40′s. They represent a time before digital was as big as it is today. I found myself realizing that I’m now apart of a different generation of hip hop fans when I got excited reading this list of artists on Marco Polo’s new project. Many of them I have neglected staying current on their music. The first Port Authority was also a greatly assembled list of collaborators. I am anticipating the follow up to hear what new direction Marco Polo’s art (and the MC’s) has taken.
Marco Polo’s PA2: The Director’s Cut features appearances from Organized Konfusion, Gangrene, Talib Kweli, DJ Premier, Masta Ace, Posdnuos (De La Soul), Kardinal Offishal, Styles P, Nature, Rah Digga, Slaine, Celph Titled, Ill Bill, Large Professor, Inspectah Deck, O.C. & many many more.
Wes Guy – Al’s Greens (Prod. by Odis Rockwell)
Met Portland MC Wes Guy last night during a session for Dre C and his new album The Experiment. I found his soundcloud and this track stood out to me to share.
Drake – Girls Love Beyonce Feat. James Fauntleroy
While we wait for his upcoming project Nothing Was the Same, Drake releases a new Destiny’s Child inspired track titled, “Girls Love Beyonce” featuring James Fauntleroy.
J. Cole – Maine on Fire
A little lofi on the mix for J. Cole. Big brass adds a nice element.
Cassow ft. Smoke DZA – Chains Of A King (Prod. by Trox)
Mixed and Mastered by Dan Lafferman for BootynBass.
Hippie Sabotage – Elysium Trailer (Remix)
Hippie Sabotage remixed the trailer for Elysium into a trap beat. Bass on Bass on Bass.
Profen ft. Lisa Cerre – Intentions
I had fun mixing this new song from Profen featuring Lisa Cerre. The instrumental is produced by Herb.
Fall Out Boy feat. 2 Chainz – My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up) (Remix)
The music reminds me of the 80′s rock my mom would play in the car. Foreigner, Journey, etc. Stripper clap added of course for relevancy.
