Granata - "Per Diem" (feat. NIKO IS) [prod. Jachary]

Cheers.

Recorded in Brooklyn at 6 A.M. one vibey, fruitful morning, "Per Diem" has found it's way from the vault, liberated now for your listening pleasure and mental stimulation. Featuring back and forth chillosophical exchange from Granata and NIKO IS, the Jachary-produced joint is bountiful in it's wisdom while remaining humbly imperturbable in it's delivery. Listeners find themselves on the receiving end of a nonchalant discourse containing a vast depth of substance, all wrapped up in a smooth, simplistic package.

As the self-proclaimed "Rhymin' & Artfunkel" recite their prose with little vocal inflection, the calming essence of quietude serves as an accent on the content. Rather than utilize hulking tones or boisterous deliveries, Granata and NIKO simply speak, allowing the inherent power of their words to act as the sole illumination of the overarching message.

With soft-spoken, atmospheric instrumentation from Jachary guiding the way, the latest Colours-served rappetizer is available now.

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 - "Clout" [prod. Anthony Danza] (Video)

Fresh off the heels of another trip around the sun, Raz Simone comes through with his first visuals of 2018. In typical Raz fashion, the Black Umbrella founder holds nothing back on "Clout", addressing a myriad of subject matter with a confidently calm yet simultaneously aggressive delivery. Simone has always been one of my favorite artists to cover, thanks in large part to the layered presentation of his content. With "Clout", an essay could be composed on both the track itself and the accompanying video - while both seem almost overly simple upon first glance/listen, the song and video cover a lot of ground over the course of five and a half minutes. The visuals are split between two backdrops - Raz being "studied" in a research facility and Raz rapping in the street. The vibe of the production on "Clout" syncs up perfectly with the dreary, simple visual of Simone in the rainy streets...appropriately carrying a black umbrella. It's

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,
