[Listen] Grieves - Shreds Posted: 05 Feb 2014 01:30 PM PST Have two years really passed since Grieves last blessed our pages with a fresh feature? Indeed, to answer my own question, they have. Luckily for fans, the Rhymesayers signee and Seattle native hasn’t lost a step between December 2011’s Lost in the Sun and Shreds, the newly-released lead single off his fourth full-length; this track proves he’s still …   Click the link for the stream.

[Listen] Jarell Perry - Black Valentine Posted: 05 Feb 2014 01:00 PM PST Next month at SXSW, indie R&B singer Jarell Perry will be unleashing his latest EP, White. A multifaceted project encompassing "stunning visuals and a live show" as well as seven tracks’ worth of new music, the set is being funded through an ongoing Kickstarter campaign. While new single Black Valentine showcases only the audio side, its …   Click the link for the stream.

[Listen] Flex The Antihero ft. DillanPonders & Emerson Brooks - Medicated Posted: 05 Feb 2014 12:30 PM PST Fresh off making his Booth debut with January 22’s reader-acclaimed Big Dreams, T-Dot rhymesayer Flex the Antihero returns to our pages with another freshly-minted single off his next LP. Whereas its predecessor was a solo rumination on the Antiheroes member’s ambitions in the game, Medicated finds Flex joined by a couple talented colleagues. And, as …   Click the link for the stream.

[Listen] JSWISS - Where You Are Posted: 05 Feb 2014 12:00 PM PST On his last feature, September’s Universal Just Called, JSWISS brushed aside major-label overtures with a firm, "Thanks, but no thanks." Why did he turn ‘em down? For one thing, he didn’t want to get fleeced. For another, creating music based on his own vision makes him so happy that he’s not tempted by short-cuts to success. That passion …   Click the link for the stream.

[Download] The Doppelgangaz - KnowntchooTahLie Posted: 05 Feb 2014 11:30 AM PST It ain’t every day you hear a rapper waxing lustful about spider veins and crow’s feet but, as far as The Doppelgangaz are concerned, those features are only add to a woman’s appeal. Inspired by a recent out-of-state trip on which a couple of mature females "took care of [them] in every way, shape and form possible," new LP single …   Click the link for the stream and download.

[Download] 2 Chainz ft. Skooly - IMA DOG Posted: 05 Feb 2014 11:00 AM PST 2 Chainz may live in a gigantic house, drive a gleaming whip and rock the finest fashions but, deep down, he’s just another animal. Don’t believe me? You will when you see the ATL rhymesayer dropping a deuce in your front yard. On the latest entry in his #2ChainzTuesday series, the Def Jam hitmaker reflects on his many similarities to …   Click the link for the stream and download.

[Listen] Sid Sriram - SAGETRON Posted: 05 Feb 2014 10:29 AM PST Not featured since September of 2013, when he capped off promotion for his Booth-hosted West Coast Nightfall Pt. 1 tape with video single Superstar, Sid Sriram returns to our front page with the inaugural song release (and title track) off his next project. To my overactive imagination, "SAGETRON" sounds like the name of an …   Click the link for the stream.

[Feature] Groundbreakers: Gilbere Forte on “PRAY”, His Influences & More Posted: 05 Feb 2014 10:26 AM PST In our new series with Green Label featuring groundbreaking artists, we interview Gilbere Forte.   Hit the link for our full exclusive interview.

[Listen] Ransom ft. Jadakiss & Raekwon - Shampain Posted: 05 Feb 2014 10:00 AM PST Don’t understand what motivates someone like Ransom to start hustling? Take a sip from the Jersey rhymesayer’s cup, and you’ll understand exactly what makes him tick. Contrary to what the creatively-spelled title might suggest, the struggle and suffering described on new single Shampain is the genuine article. MVP‘s choral synths and furtive guitar loops set the mood as the emcee …   Click the link for the stream.

[Download] Black Milk - Cold Day Posted: 05 Feb 2014 09:30 AM PST Fresh off the autumn 2013 release of his latest full-length, No Poison, No Paradise, emcee/producer Black Milk has already buckled down to work on a forthcoming EP. While the newly-released lead single off the project, Cold Day, has been in the Motown veteran’s vault for a minute, it still sounds as fresh as the day it was recorded. In vividly-imagined …   Click the link for the stream and download.
