“I’m from gun-slinging-C-A.”

There’s yet to be a negative word on Evidence’s Cats and Dogs and rightfully so. Here’s the latest from the Rhymesayer, the video for “Falling Down.” Ev reps California harder than most.

Bought this album today. It’s great. So is the video. But I’m so wiped that I don’t have many words to share with y’all. That said, I’ll probably be back here on TECB sometime in the future to get down on a legit post about Vodka & Ayahuasca, the sophomore effort from Alan the Chemist and Dr. No.

Until then, feel free to lace the comment section with your ripened brain-bubbles.

New music out of the Phenetiks camp. Roc Doogie releases this track, “F.Y.U.” with help from producer extraordinaire JK 1 The Supernova. Take an ear gander:

If you’re not familiar with the Phenetiks, allow me to learn you real quick. They’re a hip-hop collective made up of Roc Doogie, Deto-22, The Protege, and DJ Sir.Cumference. They rep Connecticut and more recently New York. And per Roc himself, he’s not condoning domestic violence in this track, it’s more of a PSA … that he’ll “fuck you up.” Download your MP3 copy of this track here and scope some of the Phenetiks music here. Tell them The Echo Chamber crew sent ya.

We heard about Dirty Hank and Reason getting together for an EP this past summer. “Say Disease” is the first track off their forthcoming EP, The Monty Brogan EP, and if this Falside-produced track is any barometer of the rest of the EP, it should be well worth the wait. The duo feed off each other on some throw back Alkaholiks shit. Take a listen:

Be sure to grab the EP when it drops on February 7th. Shout out to the whole Poorly Drawn People crew and shout out to Ed Norton. I’m really hoping these guys got him as a feature on a track.

I’ve waxed poetic on PremRock & Willie Green’s self titled album a few times on the pages of TECB. “Diary of Dreamer” and “Had to be Me” were both featured and then I named their album in my ambiguous year in review post.

“Jogger” is yet another single off the duo’s album and they got together with Open Mike Eagle to make some visuals for it. It’s a laid back, slow-paced song about getting caught by someone’s beauty, and how day dreaming about a life with said beauty can get you into visualizing about future arguments over Wu-Tang tracks. For the record, I dig “Gravel Pit.” I’ve also tried to come up with a non-sexist way to appreciate the actress they hired on to play the jogger. I came up empty, so, word to yoga pants.

This beat is funky fresh!

Move those feet, you monkey motherfuckers!

I haven’t heard Bump get this nice in a while:

Gangsta’ with the rhymes.

Tired of hearing about snow already? Yeah, me too. Thankfully, Mr. Matty Mischief broke me off with the second heat rock from his upcoming solo debut, Bigger In My Own Mind, that will give all of you FaceBook burgers something else to bump your gums about.  (Listen to the first single x title track featuring Emilio Lopez here if you missed that.) The track, “Attack of the Apes,” features chest-pounding verses from Matty and fellow Ocean State mic-murderer Crisis, along with 8th working wonders on the production per usual. Geah.

Listen:

THIS >>> “We got the streets locked like championship parade routes.”

SterbyRock dropped this all-vinyl x demo tape mix of B-sides and rarities the other day for free download. Most DJ’s are too frightened to put out a tape like this, but Ster did so and its made for a great collection of lost-and-found, or even forgotten, hip-hop gems.

First person that can name the artist/group, song title, and producer of at least ten of the tracks heard will be a renowned hero at TECB.  If you’re feeling over-zealous and think you can name all of the above for every track on Tape 19, please feel free to do so. You’ll certainly be schooling me.

No new music from the gutter-mouth emcee; I just like the photo because I’m a Scrabble fanatic.

I’d bust-out a seven-letter word on this trick any and every day of the week.  Fifty-point bonus, like a boss.
