Devin the Dude has a film coming out and… HOLD ON DID YOU SAY DEVIN THE DUDE HAS A FILM COMING OUT??? Possibly the best news I’ve heard in ages, and surely a surefire tip for next years oscars if this video clip for the lead single from the soundtrack is anything to go by. Highway doesn’t seem to have a release date that I can find anywhere on the internet, let alone IMDB, but I’m sure its gonna be an anticipated release for heads all over the globe, and I for one will be hunting it down as soon as it drops.
New video from Leeds based crew Verbal Contact featuring US based Left Leberra. One for the weed lovers. For some reason the sample in the chorus reminds me of mid 90′s dance tracks. Not even sure why. • Koaste
New track from the homie Vecks. Laid back and synthy beat co-produced by Ido and Herbie Dragons which suits Vecks’ lethargic letterbombing to a tee. Its on a free download thing, so grab it. • Koaste
Got this track sent through this morning. Nice laid back hazed out track from Mukz Morrello, who I’ve never heard of before, and I can’t find any info on the net about either, but this has got something about it. • Koaste
Spotted this video over at Ringometry and thought I’d put it up here. Mike Marshall is the voice responsible for the chorus of Tha Luniz’ I Got 5 On It, and here he links up with Opio from the Souls of Mischief to drop a little something for the smokers out there. • Koaste
Just found this for a little bit of laid back early afternoon stylings. I’m sure Tyni will know more about this group than me, but from a quick look around the internets, they’ve also done covers of Shimmy Shimmy Ya and Gin N Juice… • Koaste
I know a lot of bay area music is marmite, but the beat on this track from 40 Water’s son Droop-E is mad nice. This has got a laid back late night feel to it, and although I’m posting it in the AM, you can save this one for listening later. There’s a few emcees about at the moment who have kids old enough to record with now… Ice Cube’s just done She Couldn’t Make It On Her Own with his sons, I’m sure I’ve heard Ol’ Dirty’s son on tracks… whos’ next to give their offspring a leg up in this game? • Koaste
Yo, I played this on the show last week, and I thought I’d drop the video up on here too. Big Boi’s Sir Luscious Leftfoot LP is one of the most eagerly awaited albums of 2010, and as yet there’s no solid release date I can find anywhere, but given the few tracks that have leaked so far, especially this one and Shutterbug, I think its gonna be worth waiting for. I’m still hoping that Big Boi and Andre 3000 put aside their creative differences and give us all a new Outkast LP at some point, but until then, this will have to do. If I smoked ‘erb, believe me, I’d be lighting one up to this… • Koaste
