Wrex Mason - 'Aquarius Sun' (Stream)

Although 9000+ has become something of a Jay Electronica-eque elusive rap fable in these parts of CT, don't doubt that Wrex Mason has been working.

On life. On himself. And on music.

Case in point is this instrumental project the NY-based / CT-raised released back in March of this year. When Wrex announced the beat tape, I wasn't sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised with the ample vibes supplied throughout the 8-track Aquarius Sun.

The sonic landscape is composed of a finely balanced blend of airy sounds that manage to flow like water. It's a smooth project that has the full potential to house some chilled out, thought-provoking lyrical content - although I'm doubtful Wrex is looking for just anyone to hop on the instrumentals.

According to Mason, there's a collection of new music locked in his vault. Whether it's via live shows or streaming platforms, when the moment is right, I'm sure Wrex will liberate those sounds.

Stream Aquarius Sun below and support Mason by copping via Apple Music or Spotify.

Rudy - No Time

God willing, each and every person birthed into this world will grow up. Some of us may reach an old age, some of us may be called home earlier than others - but, in some form or fashion, we all will grow older. It's a funny thing, the way our society perceives age. In some cultures, the elders are held to the highest esteem - for they are the ones with the knowledge and experience to hold true wisdom. While many in our society praise youth and the physical beauty associated with being young, it is only through the experience of living life that one learns about the world, and in turn, has the capability to learn about their own being. And still, we tend to look down upon those who have been blessed to experience a long, full life. Perhaps it's because so many "old" people seem to live a life of regret, looking back on their youth with a mind full of "what ifs" and "should haves". While young individuals are rushing to reach maturity,

Watch Now: Aaron Cohen & Eklips in Paris (Video)

While in Paris - which appears to be one of his homes away from home at this point - Aaron Cohen bumped into Eklips outside a train station. With cameras rolling, the renowned beatboxer proceeded to drop Dipset's " Oh Boy " instrumental as Cohen does what he does best, lacing the France-based musician's rendition of the track with characteristically self-confident quotables. Check out the off the cuff collaboration below and be on the lookout for Cohen's upcoming RED NEW YORK project.

Raz Simone - "Your Hands" [prod. Antwon Vinson] (Video)

Often times in life, the hardest lessons to learn are the ones that lead to the greatest amount of personal growth and expansion. And, of course, it's always best to learn first hand, through experience, rather than through second hand story telling. Let's be honest, someone can drop knowledge on you time and time again but we, as humans, have a tendency to ignore that wisdom unless the Universe hits us with some personal experience. Regardless, on "Your Hands", Raz Simone takes it upon himself to share his experience with anyone willing to listen - not necessarily to benefit the listener, but to put into perspective his D.T.A. ( don't trust anyone) mentality. Shortly after the release of "Your Hands", Raz tweeted the following: "I genuinely don't expect a thing from another person but betrayal. I still keep hope and love for everyone tho. More and more from afar." While this may come across as a negative, pessimis
