Unordinary Love Song – Madhattan Mayor X Robert Denir0

  By ,

What It Sound Like? 

The weekend is in sight, we’re almost there. Depending where you’re reading from, could be closer to Friday. Of course, we have new tunes to carry us on our way. Our prized producer, Robert Denir0 dropped this piece on me today. All Nighters know if Rob stamps a track, I anticipate it like a trailer for a new film. The crowd also is aware he only sends beats to certain caliber emcees.

Welcome Madhattan Mayor,  new face to RAN. In case the clever name doesn’t give it away, the artist describes his home of Manhattan for you. The verses are decorated with street situations, poetically. Double M does well at speaking of it without glorifying his past. This song still is a theme for the hustlers out there. Whatever your hustle is, you “Gotta Get This Cake Right.”

One of the more laid back productions I’ve heard from Denir0. The background has strong level of sensitivity, makes it easy for radio spins. I’m one who appreciates versatility and Rob displayed it again. Madhattan has good lyrics, vocals, with flow for the melody. Look forward to hearing more in the near future. Meanwhile, pop out to Sound Cloud and run up those streams!

Thank everyone for coming through, plus your support on other sites. God bless you and yours!

The World Is Not Enough – Jamal Gasol X Lord Juco

  By , ,

What It Sound Like?

Welcome back, welcome some for the first time. Yes, I’ve been staying busy, about to get busier. Not gonna bore you with me. Tonight is about our RAN family, Jamal Gasol and Lord Juco! 

Last time we heard the pair was on Mean Streets. A memorable EP produced by Won87 along with Robert Deniro. The chemistry continues on The World Is Piff 1.5

This time, with production by Sandy Solo. The loop is so harmonic, it immediately paints a vivid picture in the mind. 

Fortunately, we have video. Doesn’t get much more vivid than that. I’m feeling the shot of the Falls from the open. YMG Shooter must have knew it would match the sound accurately.The scenery is official Night Life material. Kept it wavy on the top floor of the parking lot. The dark setting was necessary for this street soundtrack. 

Jamal may not blast his own horn about being lyrical. I give credit where it’s due, the cadences in the verse won’t allow Gasol to be placed in a box. Steel sharpens steel, Juco kept line for line consistency and wordplay.  The slick bars and soulful vibe fits right in your playlist. 

Thanks again for all your support, enjoy the video. God bless you and yours!

Money.Power.Respect – Sauce Heist x Dirty Diggs

  By , ,

What It Sound Like?

Another busy week, even busier weekend!

Glad to see artists I respect, getting work in. Tonight's topic really needs no intro. Sauce Heist is a gatekeeper in the underground circuit. It is hard to find someone with their ear to the streams, that doesn't know who he is.

Since our last cover, Sauce has fully vested in Dirty Diggs for production of the latest release, Diamond Dust Shoes. His song used for promo really stood out to me, so this post will focus on Money.Power.Respect

The energy is set immediately and kept through the entire tune. The high pitch sample along the heavy boom bap background mirror the piercing voice of Heist. Listen, as he shows dominance over amateur rappers. Street savvy content with a protected rare-jewel polish.

Speaking of "Smell my roses"

expressed by the artist. Our site's purpose is to  provide that platform.

HEIST LIFE is making big accomplishments. Look at the legends that Dirty Diggs are, plus the ones they have produced for. Let's encourage our brothers when the opportunity is there.

M.P.R is dope, the complete album is available on Bandcamp, it already sounds promising. I'm sure the vinyls are on their way, show your support. Thank you, as always. God bless you and yours!

Victimized – General Back Pain x Deuce Hennessy x Killy Shoot x Chuck Chan

  By ,

What It Sound Like?

Long ago, I realized it was a numbers game.

So have the line up on tonight’s tune, they also utilize strength in numbers. I’m proud to introduce Chuck Chan and his comrade, Deuce Hennessy to RAN. Remember Killy Shoot and General Back Pain from previous posts?

They joined in and brought their own bars. As real emcees do. From verse to verse you are getting consistent heavy-dosed lines.  The difference in voices and flows sit well on the Chuck Chan track.

Chuck brought the pressure with this symphonic instrumental. You can’t sit still to that background! It is a pleasure to listen to this combination. I look forward to more.

Stream this till your fingers cramp on Sound Cloud. As all the artists I write about, please support their work in the stores also.

Long week for some, short week for others. Happy to be here with your company. Thanks for all the feedback, God bless!

Summer Slamm ’88 Freestyle – Ty Da Dale

  By ,

What It Sound Like?

Got another one for you out of the art gallery!

Lines, lines, and more lines is what you get from Ty Da Dale. Some of the most clever ways to put them, too. The Castle Hill HEIST continues with this slick sixteen. Ty let’s the streets have it with his take no prisoners, type flow over Summer Slamm ’88 instrumental. Never shy to show his rough edges. Based on a bar from the verse, being cool with his right hand is not enough for your safety.

This is a fun joint to listen to. It’s hard, it’s witty, got the content we enjoy. The artist undoubtedly served this remix justice! Perfect timing with the follow up to his recent solo project, Tokyo Drip. Anybody with a soul has to respect the hustle and achievement of Dale. Him and his team are doing something similar to WU Tang in the 90’s. The Asian fan base is steady increasing. This is without a major company backing them. So respect the HEIST.

Pop out to Sound Cloud for the free stream tonight. Do visit Band Camp and make some purchases in his store, also. You will have that music you’re missing.

Thanks to everybody stopping through. The company is always appreciated, including your support. God bless.
