Cocareef X Killy Shoot X Onaje Jordan Interview

What It Sound Like?

Had the chance to sit down and chop it up with hosts of the new smoker, Full Metal Kleptos. One of the singles recently released from upcoming Diaz Brothers collaboration by Cocareef. A producer cooking up food for the soul.

First off, peace to the squad. Thanks for joining us here at Rhyme All Night!

My first question is for the group. This song brings three states together, Illinois, New Jersey, and Massachusetts.

What’s the love like in your town?

Cocareef: The love out here in Jersey is isolated amongst each movement and artist, not too much Unity, so the reaction from the single is mostly coming from out of state and across the Country, but we have a strong following and support group from overseas. The Reaction to this Team up is Crazy, nothing but positive feedback. This whole album has an All-Star Line-Up Thanks to Onaje sounding the horn out to his Team of Artist.

 

Onaje Jordan: Chicago is very supportive of our art.  How’s the reaction to the recent team up? The reaction is beautiful. Me, Coca and Killy have separate fan bases and all of them have been supportive.

 

Killy ShootThe love out here is good, been grinding hard and getting good recognition. The reaction of us getting down is not too surprising because I have worked with Onaje before and have heard a little bit of Cocareef already so when he asked to build on the project it seemed like a dope fit!

RAN: I’m in South Florida, myself. It is a mix of what each of you said. Depending on the town your in, it could be supportive. Then there are some parts don’t want to see someone close to them do well. I feel once the art gets heard, the love overcomes the hate.


Onaje, we need to know what hidden genres do you listen to that inspire your beats?

Onaje: When it comes to digging I have no discrimination. Lately, I have been finding gems in 70’s film scores.

 

Killy Shoot, how much pressure got relieved after releasing The Killing Time?

Killy ShootIt was a good weight off my shoulders I can admit. To have worked with so many dope producers and put out a well-received product was a dope feeling. That project really drew some good attention and got a few more to listen to my sound.

 

Where in the realms does all this energy stem from Cocareef?

Cocareef: Lol,  I release all of me into the Music, I let my eccentric side bounce off the walls of the booth and all them voices roaming around can finally be heard with no filter but the one covering my Mic. I let all of my stress out in that studio and when life comes with its everyday bullsh*t, I take it out on the game and Beat the Booth up and come out with another Banga.

 

RAN: I could sense that in the each of you. From the classic digs by Onaje, I could tell you listen to the entire piece when sampling. I’ve been hearing so much from Killy since the EP, that ethic is paying off. Look how great talents link up like this. All that stress you let out in the stu, Coca channelled some liked minded people.


Often, we feel one way about a song we did, and the listener has a total different vibe. They might even point out qualities we didn’t notice of ourselves.

What is your favorite key piece to your style, and does it line up to your feedback from your fans?

Cocareef: My Trade Mark is my many different pitch voice sounds from growling to screaming or any type of sound I feel like making on the spot, I knew that would be a love or hate thing, so because its dope I’m running with it and take my chances. Nobody doing my style right now so it a great thing but in time the Trendsetting will begin and you will hear other cats doing it, its all evolution in this game of Hip Hop.

Onaje: My favorite part of my style is the samples I discover and chop up. Coming from Chicago I was taught by the greats No.ID and Boogz. There is a certain way Chicago producers chop up samples. We don’t just loop the samples; we use too spread the sample on the ASR keyboard now I spread the sample across the sixteen pads of the MPC. Gives me more control of the samples. The fan feedback is phenomenal. In the past three years, it has been a resurgence in that ol boom bap, sample-based production. I would never think I would have fans. I’m just a dude from Chicago who’s in love with hip-hop.

Killy Shoot: I would have to say my ability to tell a story/street imagery. People say I have a good way of painting a picture of the streets with vivid description.

RAN: I could understand that, being an emcee. I’ve executive produced, but never the beat making process. So I got crazy respect for producers. Honestly, I could see this whole project leading to more trends.


Diaz Brothers is a most anticipated project. Our readers are feeling the early releases, so far.

How’s the reaction been, personally from to the recent team up?

OnajeThe reaction has been crazy. Blogs like this one have been showing a lot of love.

CocareefI can’t complain about nothing, Its been all and only love I felt from everyone that heard of the team up to the all-star cast, line up and not to mention the Album cover I curated and Kris Blade Designed.

Killy ShootThe reaction had been a positive one I think anything I have done with Onaje has been received positive and with Reef our styles contrast very well sonically.

RAN: I was grabbed by the art you curated, Coca. I’m glad you mentioned it. I grasp the concept with the rachets pointed at the receptacle. We know it can be an ugly reality, plugs get booked regular. Definitely biggups to Kris Blade for following your vision on the album cover. I see Anthony Calixto worked on this cover, plus Bar Brawl with you and Jamal Gasol. He’s another favorite here at our site. The track is addicting and the picture painted by the artists is vivid. Hip Hop heads are lucky this connection happened.


Full Metal Kleptos is heating things up in the fourth quarter. The streams are coming in.

How does a live performance sound, in the near future?

Cocareef: Well when it comes to performing that’s not my forte, but since I have some of the best talent and performers already on my team I’ll be rocking any stage we need to.

Killy Shoot: I would def be down to perform, that’s something I would enjoy real talk! 

RAN: It’s official, I’m recommending the people to demand to see yah perform this tune. Jordan gotta be there, as well!

Shaw Brothers – Josiah X Rob Deniro

What It Sound Like?

More new music for the people. Your boy is fortunate to get exclusives from recognized figures in our world. I got a bangin track from none other than, Rob Deniro. Your gonna love it.

He reached into Eastern films for this dig. Notice that legendary Shaw sample in the background, as he introduces Josiah The Gift for a lyrical medley. I’m a barfly, so I quickly noticed the clever wordplay. I’m also a big Martial arts movie head, who can be critical. The artist does not disappoint. Not only is it street, he also has fight related cadences.

Another hit from the home team, we welcome Josiah to the RAN fam. After hearing this, there’s only one thing to do. You already know, go support. Not only YouTube, do your searches and find more.

Thank you for coming through. Blessing of Yahweh for you and yours.

 

Eyes On The Prize – Jamal Gasol

What It Sound Like?

Tonight we got something special. I’m not much for celebrating holidays, that don’t mean we can’t get spooky! Hip Hop is all around, can’t get enough of the sounds of the underground. I’m always proud to see our featured artist at work. Jamal Gasol drops an appetizer to the brand new release of his EP split with Lil Eto. Eyez On The Prize brings you raw visuals with a subtle touch. Each scene represents an attachment to the hustle. From the scaffolds to the stoop. As you can see, it’s hoodie weather. 

So, Gasol delivers just how cold the streets could get, with an even chillier flow. One of the known beat selectors, his producer of choice this time, happens to be VDon. Yes, you’ve seen the name, you’ve heard the buzz. His tracks are sought after by some of the biggest market movers in our realm. He already knows what an artist is listening for, so the beats stand out. 

I hope no one gets bored of relative success stories. I can’t bring you the top athlete in the country, nor could I tell you the next crypto currency spike. When it comes to Hip Hop and urban culture, I relate more to that. The situations Jamal explains are something plenty of us know about, hands-on. The humble spirit I am, I’d rather biggup the next person, than to hate. Salute to Mr 31, VDon, as well as Eto. It’s A Dirty Game sounds like another promising project!

Watch the vid below and be sure to go to jamalgasol.com to pick up your copy of the new album. Thank you for passing through, always welcome. Follow a blog you like, add the site to your bookmarks and favorites. Blessings from the Most High to you and yours!

WHICH “WHITE M.C. WINS THIS BATTLE BIGG K OR IRON SOLOMON???

Blood Money

Blood Money is something a majority that most Americans let alone most Americans companies all take part in; yes the watch your wearing or that purse you just bout or the new underwear you just got was most likely created off some unfair systems that takes advantage of their workers. However hypocrisy aside WWE standing firm that next Friday they will still be going to Saudi Arabia for their “Crown Jewel” show. While I’m not much into politics but you have to be living under a rock If you haven’t at least heard about the brutal killing of an American journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and if you believe the reports his murder was orchestrated buy the exact same people WWE is doing business with. There will be some who say you can’t cancel the show because there could be long term legal effects and that may turn out to be true, however WWE knew who they were getting into bed with; this is the same Saudi Arabia who just allowed Women to start drinking, a place were you can be be headed for being a Christian or gay or Jewish and ect…. these are many of the reasons this was a bad deal from the start and it looking like it’s only getting worse. And why is WWE still doing the deal instead of caving into public pressure from media and Senator members alike; well like I said Blood Money WWE is reported to make 450 million dollars over the next 10 years through this deal; retired wrestler who claim to stand for this and that are flocking out of retirement to get this huge payday. Money rules the world.
