Lu Chin Chen "Height" EP
Lu Chin Chen handles all of the rhymes and vocals on this one and doesn't disappoint.
The first single, "Cheque It Out" features production by Zam One with the chorus and bridge cuts by Dystrakted. Lu hits you with some slick bars that blend humor in, similar to Beatnuts, Alkaholiks etc., over some cracking drums by Zam.
There is also an animated video for 'Call the Ambulance', produced by Fuzzy Ed, featuring Dystrakted, coming in late July, animated by Kaleb Bumboclap who did Lu's video for 23 Guinnesses from Lu's Weight Ep from 2023, also produced by Fuzzy Ed and featuring Dystrakted's prime time cuts.
Overall great body of work and a well put together blend of beats.
The sound quality is top notch thanks to Mark Downie who handles all of Lu's mixing & mastering on all of his albums since 2004.
"Height" will be streaming on all platforms on 7/7/2026 with CDs and downloads available for purchase a https://luchinchen.bandcamp.com
as well.

LATE - Contradictions
Underground Rapper LATE Drops Self Produced Album Contradictions: A Gritty and Thought Provoking Journey Through Duality and Truth
Underground Hip Hop heavyweight LATE returns with Contradictions, a self produced, ten track album that pushes boundaries and speaks truths from the shadows of the streets.
Known for his raw lyricism and uncompromising authenticity, LATE delivers a body of work that’s both introspective and confrontational, painting a vivid picture of the struggles, triumphs, and contradictions of modern life.
Opening with the title track “Contradiction,” LATE sets the tone for a project that explores life’s Contradictions where ambition meets reality, where fact collides with fiction, and where survival demands a split identity. From the emotional turbulence of “Hurricane Season” to the aspirational grind of “Highest Achiever,” each track hits hard with sharp bars and gritty, soul-infused production.
LATE doesn’t shy away from social commentary either. On “Fiction Not Facts,” he deconstructs media manipulation, while “Worldly Wonders” takes a global perspective on inner city issues. “Twisted Perceptions” and “Street Mythology” dive deep into the psychology of street life, mythmaking, and survival.
Tracks like “Multi Trillionaire” juxtapose dreams of wealth with the reality of systemic struggle, while “Broken Times” offers a haunting reflection on generational trauma. The album closes on a powerful note with “Keep Pushing,” an anthem of resilience and relentless forward motion.
Entirely self produced, Contradictions is a testament to LATE’s artistic independence and creative vision. The beats knock, the bars cut deep, and the message is clear: LATE isn’t here to follow trends he’s here to tell his truth with his own spin on it.
