Video: Kardinal Offishall – “We Gon Go”

After debuting this track late December, Kardinal Offishall is finally back with a video for “We Gon Go” produced by Supa Dav West. The track is the first single off Kardinal’s upcoming album, Mr. International. The video was directed by Chris G. Even though he is signed to Konvict Music, its always great to see Kardinal shining on his singles without the Akon feature.

Download: Mick Boogie & Terry Urban – Le Da Soul [Mixtape]

Le Da Soul FrontHere’s what looks like an insane (in a good way) tribute to my personal favorite group of all time – De La Soul. Mick Boogie & Terry Urban teamed up with a slew of artists (ranging from Tanya Morgan to Phife Dawg to 6th Sense to Camp Lo to Apple Juice Kid) for this project. I heard a leak the other day for Phife’s  “Peace Porridge” and I can tell you I was interested off that track alone. Download, enjoy, and give thanks to one of the greatest groups to ever do it as well as everyone involved on this mixtape. Hit the jump for the tracklist.

knaan 300x300 Download: J.Period & KNaan   The Messengers Ep. 2: Bob Marley [EP]Previously, we posted a link to this great project’s first episode, which was a tribute to the legendary Fela Kuti. Well, this time we have another legend and, we bet, more dope music from K’Naan and J.Period. This has got to be one of the freshest means of promotion we have seen in a while, though we didn’t expect less from either artist involved. They remix classic joints such as “Shot the Sheriff” and “Stir It Up” with guest features from the likes of Kardinal Offishall, Steele (of Smif’N'nWessun) and Bajah. Enjoy and, as always, let us know your thoughts!

Toronto, Where Is The Love?

I’m lucky to live in one of the best cities in the world. However, the hip-hop scene in Toronto while not lacking in talent is still struggling in some ways.

But as we wait for more new releases from the man, he drops off this Dilla-inspired free album, which he made shortly after the passing of the great producer. A bunch of the tracks have leaked around the internet over the past week or so, but today you get to hear the whole thing. A fantastic instrumental tribute to one of the greatest producers to ever do it, showing how much he really influenced the entire hip-hop community.
