Slaughterhouse Is a Machine (Get Acquainted)

I really hope this isn't the first time you all are seeing these guys. If it is, I'm sure it won't be the last.

Individually, each of these guys>>>>> everyone else, but together..... wow. I'll just let the music speak for itself. I'll post standout (aka my favorite) tracks by each member, then a classic group track so you guys can get properly acquainted.

Emilio! (Get Acquianted)

What's going on people? Welcome to another edition of Get Acquainted, today's focusing on a rapper by the name of

Emilio Rojas


















Emilio Rojas is an artist originally from Rochester, NY who as relocated to Brooklyn. You may not know what to expect by looking at that picture (no shots), but he's definitely extremely talented and someone you should be on the lookout for. He's very lyrical ("This free market and stocks [are] free falling,/ in a land where freedom will ring, and keep calling,/ cause they don't really wanna free up a line..." - Free) and, as you can see by the quote, his music is socially and politically conscious (but not overly so, listen to track 7 on the mixtape and you'll see the versatility). Below is a link to download his latest mixtape, Recession Proof. It's fire, and if you've never heard of him before, this is the best way for you to Get Acquainted...

It's Charles Hamilton.. (Get Acquanited)

Charles Hamilton


Welcome to another edition of Get Acquainted. Today, I'm introducing you all to a up and coming rapper who has been all over the net since last fall. His name is Charles Hamilton, and as you can tell from his picture, he's not your usual rapper. He's from Harlem, in Love with the color pink & Sega Genisis, has an entire philosophy on life and religion based on Sonic The Hedgehog (yes, the little blue thing from the videogames. (no, im not joking)), and was recently signed to Interscope Records. So as weird as he may sound, he got the co-sign from Dr. Dre himself, so he must be doing something right.

His style is really different from most other artists out. He makes it his goal to get the listeners to understand that he is his own person, and will not conform and curb his creativity for the sake of popularity or approval. Respectable, right? Over the past few months, he dropped a whole series of mixtapes called the Hamiltonization process (they can be found at iamnotcharleshamilton.com. Every mixtape has a certain theme or motif. I'll leave it up to you to figure those out. He's a very talented artist (he produces and raps), but most of the mixtapes are hit or miss. Therefor, I decided to post my personal favorites so you guys can make your own opinon about him. (click the links to download each mixtape. email me for individual tracks)(click his name at the top of the post to see his blog)

Get Acquainted

As the Music addict that I am (for proof, see picture above from my iTunes), I will, from time to time, post links to new, hot and exclusive music for your listening pleasure.

Without further ado Let's Get you Acquainted:

Fedd Hill


DOWNLOAD THIS MIXTAPE HERE

Here is a link to the myspace of this group called Fedd Hill out of Prov. City, Rhode Island. "Fedd Hill offers a new breed of hip-hop music that serves as the voice of New England. The group bases their music on real-life events and many of their tracks tell stories of courage, heartbreak and the hunger for a better world." Although taken from their bio, I would second those statements. Their music is motivated by thier struggles and successes, and is more than worth a spot in anyone's collection. Just click the link (it's in blue right there) and check them out. They've really supported the The JumpOff (our radio show) over the past 4 years, and they definitely have some good stuff for you to hear. Tell them Lubeen sent you.

Drake

I don't know what to say. If you all don't ATLEAST have his latest mixtape, So Far Gone, you must've been sleeping for the past few months. Drake is a new rapper coming out of Canada(Toronto Stand UP!) who's bringing a fresh, new sound to the game. As a matter of fact, you guys may remember him from the teen-soap opera Degrassi. Don't believe me? Check the pictures:

Jimmy on Degrassi

Drake aka Drizzy

Click the link, Go to his blog, look on the right and download the mixtape. Do yourselves a favor.

That ends it for today, but I'm gonna try to get new stuff for you guys as close to daily as I can. And if you ever want anything, Email me. I'm open for requests.
