My dude (ll) Arthur C Van Wyk just put me up on Miss Contro’Versy, a female MC outta Cape Town, South Africa. On this joint ‘Versy speaks to her ’sisters’. Good to see that conscious rap is not dead. South Africa stand up!!!

Kill The Labels (Full DVD)
Posted in Documentary on June 8, 2009 by H-Double.S
The labels have generally failed to evolve with the consumer but have instead opted for slave deals like 360 deals. They have no clue what to do in this digital era and they really believe that free downloads are what killed music sales.

So I wake this morning at 07H00 (South African time) and my inbox is dumb full of e-mails about Flex and Mister Cee’s world premier of Jay-Z’s new record ‘D.O.A’. next thing I know my dude Mike Waxx from illroots sends me the No DJ CDQ – Thanx fam.
I’ve had this joint on repeat all day. I am happy a rapper of Jay’s stature addressed this issue.

I’m back with the FIRST joint off the NEW project “Live, Love, Learn” which drops on July 1st!! This new joint is titled “Absolute Perfection”, which is what I strive for everytime I grace the mic. It’s produced by this dope producer out of the DMV area called Soulful! He actually did the whole tape. Can’t wait for you to hear the whole project! Only about a month away now. Hit me back with your personal thoughts if you can also. Thanks for the support!

The Ecstatic…
Posted in Reviews with tags hip-hop, Mos Def, rap, The Ecstatic on June 5, 2009 by H-Double.S
Just copped ‘The Ecstatic’ the other day (sometimes it pays to live outside the US). Whilst I enjoy listening to Mos rap (and thanks God here is back to rapping again and lyrically he is still superior to most) I do find the album somewhat of a drag, this left off center bullshit is not working for me. There are however a lot gems on the album. “Life In Marvelous Times” is my joint.
The album is set to next Tuesday in the US and other parts of the world.
Below is footage of Mos on the streets of Osaka, Japan spitting ‘Casa Bey’ raps.
