The Bad Tenants - Altitude Check | @HipHopTenants

Seattle hip-hop trio The Bad Tenants stole attention with their summer anthem “Altitude Check” last month and now they’re back with fresh, hilarious visuals to accompany the vibey single.

The group brought in the slick camera stylings of Justin Frick to bring the video to life over the witty word play and bluesy, hook-fueled banger, creating a unique “Beastie Boys meets Blues Brothers” aesthetic. Suffice it to say, The Tenants never fail to entertain.

“Altitude Check” was produced by Rudy Willingham and IG88 and you can find it anywhere music is sold or streamed online.

New Album: @ThatsBlawesome & @H0T16 - TEASE (Album) | @theliquidbeat

​

From Portland’s burgeoning music scene comes a creative statement in the form of “Tease”, the full-length collaborative album by singer-songwriter Blossom and producer HOT16.

Meticulously thought out in every detail, “Tease” shows the work of two sophisticated artists making their mark with an expertly written, performed, and produced LP that will undoubtedly find its way into your home and heart.

What started as a single guest feature quickly transformed into a full 8-song joint venture when it became instantly clear that the two artists brought out the best in each other. Blossom’s poetic lyrics and emotive tones meld effortlessly around HOT16’s unique production.

Strong, black, and imbued with magic, Blossom shows depth & feeling in every note while HOT16’s soulful tracks work as the perfect backdrops for her beautiful odes to identity, empowerment, love, and its accompanying heartache.

With a multitude of styles reflected on the album, each song can rightfully stand on its own. However, “Tease” is best understood within the context of the whole, as genres are allowed to meld together and a larger narrative unfolds. Take note, as the album is both a sonic world unto itself, as well as only a Tease of what’s to come.

DJ Marley Waters - "Wine Pon It" @DjMarleyWaters

DJ Marley Waters Announces 2017 as his transition year, unveiling his debut Dancehall based single, “Wine Pon It” -

DJ Marley Waters "Wine Pon It" represents a fusion of Pop, Reggae R&B and EDM. The infectious vocals combined with the Waters signature trap sound creates the sensuality representing the current lifestyle of Dancehall.

When asked what "Wine Pon it" meant to him, Marley replied with this statement: Wine Pon it is when bad mon and bad gyal body link up a stroke to the melody. Sexual frequencies translated through the riddim. To perform you must gyrate and twist your hips, core, and chest in a slithering motion. The wine is a Caribbean culture dance I resonated with growing up in Boston. The "basement" is where we went to "wine all night".  Listen to the highly addictive single now, via Spotify.

Izzy Strange (@ishestrange) - A Good Day 2 B The Bad Guy (Album)

Pennsylvania-based emcee Izzy Strange lets loose a slew of intricate syllables on his latest project, "A Good Day 2 B The Bad Guy".

Aside from lyricism, Strange showcases his abilities to craft commercial singles such as with "Real Love" featuring Taylyn. His antihero approach to song crafting can be found on the first two tracks of the album, "Story To Tell" and "Making Movies". Taking close to a year to orchestrate, the Beasley's Corner Bodega frontman combined the Grammy Award winning sounds of Nate Fox and hometown beat phenom, Casa Nada, for the instrumentation.

He then took it a step farther by landing guest features from some of his favorite artists such as Blu, Mick Jenkins and Open Mike Eagle. Izzy has released six singles and three videos from the album thus far. He recently announced another upcoming visual for the Blu-assisted "At Home" single Shot on location in California. The fifteen track project can be heard on Soundcloud, streamed via Spotify and purchased from iTunes.
