EC FAM - "Everyday"

\

AfterLyfe Music’s powerhouse duo EC FAM returns with their uplifting new single, “Everyday”, taken from their highly anticipated sophomore album, “Clarity 2: The Book Of The Dead”. On this soulful, motivational anthem, the two MCs deliver sharp verses and heartfelt lyrics about living in the moment, staying grounded, and shining through every day of life. Their signature chemistry is once again on full display over a smooth, radiant beat crafted by NasteeLuvzYou, the 10x platinum producer and engineer known for his timeless sound. “Everyday” is more than a song — it’s a reminder to embrace life’s journey, one moment at a time.

https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/ecfam/everyday-feat-nasteeluvzyou 

EC Fam initially began in 1999 as an underground movement in Boston MA originally under the moniker Venom.  After a string of regional hits (“Tomorrow Never Comes”, “Beat Those” & “Act Like You Want It”) the crew took a break from music to take care of their families and build foundations.  Fast forward to the current day and they are back like they never left.  Unlike most current day rappers, EC FAM’s return to the mic has little to do with money and more to do with the message.  MC’s Ev & Zo are pushing the agenda of peace, unity, love and having fun aka hip hop.  They show and prove their motives by crafting songs from two traditionally opposite ideologies, Islam & Christianity.  EC FAM’s perspective is “We all believe in the same God, why can’t we all unify and live together in peace?”  A newly inked partnership with industry veteran Nastee’s AfterLyfe Music (ALM) whose message is that there is a lot to be learned from a hip hop lifestyle, proves to be a perfect marriage for these MC’s on a mission.  Hip Hop at it’s finest.

Travisty the Lazy Emcee & DJ Kawon - What a Time To Be Alive

 

Independent Hip Hop takes a bold, smoky turn with the announcement of What A Time To Be Alive, the highly anticipated collaborative album from Travisty The Lazy Emcee and DJ Kawon. Entirely produced by DJ Kawon, the project is a head-nodding journey through bouncy, dark, smoky, and abstract boom bap-influenced soundscapes, pushing the boundaries of underground artistry.

Adding to the richness of the project, What A Time To Be Alive features standout appearances from Maddog McGraw (Lansing, MI) and RA K7NG (Milwaukee, WI), both of whom bring raw, razor-edged lyricism to complement Travisty’s sharp pen and unhurried, commanding delivery.

In an era of fleeting digital releases, this project embraces the tangible. What A Time To Be Alive will be distributed in a limited run of cassettes and glass mastered CDs through Mad Good Records for the collectors.

DJ Kawon’s production blends dusty drum breaks, cinematic samples, and hypnotic melodies into an atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking—a sonic lane where golden-era grit meets modern abstraction. Travisty’s intricate wordplay and storytelling drive the narrative, creating an album that’s not just a playlist, but a full-bodied listening experience.

"We wanted to make something that feels timeless, something you could drop the needle on twenty years from now and it still hits just as hard," says DJ Kawon. "It’s Hip Hop rooted in the underground, but it’s got its own flavor that sets it apart.

"Physical formats arriving in strictly limited quantities. Fans are encouraged to secure their copies early—once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Dialect Sosa - 3035: a space odyssey

 

Canadian hip-hop artist Dialect Sosa releases his highly anticipated sophomore project, “3035: a space odyssey”, marking his second full-length album of 2025. The project follows his critically acclaimed and award nominated (Niagara Music Awards - Best Album) debut “Ultra-Violence: Decline Of A Beautiful Mind”, which dropped in February 2025 and cemented Sosa as one of the most compelling new voices in hip-hop.

“3035: a space odyssey” propels listeners on a daring trip beyond Earth’s atmosphere, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. With slick lyricism and bold conceptual storytelling, Sosa takes hip-hop into uncharted territory — weaving a tragically epic narrative that is at once theatrical, cinematic and cosmic. While rooted in the golden era hip-hop sound that shaped his artistic foundation, Sosa continues to expand his creative universe.

The album blends classic grit with experimental sonics, daringly incorporating new styles and ingredients. The result is a galactic hip-hop experience — smoother, more refined and elevated — showcasing an artist unafraid to take risks, reveal vulnerability and push boundaries. A highly ambitious follow-up to his acclaimed debut, “3035: a space odyssey” invites listeners on a bizarre, otherworldly ride through the cosmos — one that challenges perceptions of both music and meaning.

Stray Bullet - Go-Getter Gems feat. REKS

Rising rap force Stray Bullet teams up with underground hip hop legend REKS to deliver “Go-Getter Gems”, a striking anthem for soul-driven hustlers navigating the modern-day chaos and focus in equal measure.  On “Go-Getter Gems”, Stray Bullet and REKS bring up a lyrical masterclass over a cinematic and drum-heavy instrumental, while guiding through their own manifestos that serve as a blueprint for self-reliance and grind. REKS, a revered figure in the independent rap scene, unleashes seasoned fire to the record, bridging the gap between legacy and the next wave. Together, the duo strikes with precision and purpose, cementing “Go-Getter Gems” as more than a track. It’s a mindset. Moscow-born and American-schooled, Stray Bullet is a boundary-breaking MC with a voice that’s as sharp as his name. Rooted in the core values of hip hop but shaped by a global perspective, he delivers hard truths with style, clarity, and unapologetic authenticity. Having soaked in the culture since day one, he now steps onto the US scene with a bold statement, and a heavyweight feature to back it up. He is currently working on an EP.

Halfcut & Cole The God - Soul Ice feat. Daniel Son & Str8 Trip

 

Halfcut & Cole The God (aka Cutty & Cole) Drop Chilling New Single “Soul Ice” Featuring Daniel Son & Str8 Trip

After the buzz worthy video/single "Green Stacks," Canadian underground heavyweights Halfcut and Cole The God return with a powerful new single titled "Soul Ice", a gritty and atmospheric track featuring lyrical assassins Daniel Son and Str8 Trip. The track is a bold offering from the North, blending raw street poetry with glacial production that cuts deep. The visuals shot by Da Kid T (USOM Films) were filmed in the Canadian Rockies and offer the perfect companion to the song's frigid undertone. The soundscape by Cole is soaked in ominous, boom-bap textures that mirror the unforgiving cold of the Canadian streets. Halfcut delivers his signature sharp, unfiltered bars, while Daniel Son—one of the most respected emcees in the underground—slides through with calculated aggression. Rising spitter Str8 Trip adds fuel to the fire with a hungry and unrelenting verse, making this a true cipher of verbal warfare. "Soul Ice" is out now on all DSPs and is taken from their upcoming project "The Relentless Two" dropping everywhere 8/5/25.

Bugsy H. & Mephux - 90's In A Nutshell

 

Bugsy H. & Mephux Deliver Raw Nostalgia with New Album “90’s In A Nutshell” 

Boston Rap heavyweight Bugsy H. teams up with acclaimed producer Mephux to drop their highly anticipated joint album, "90’s In A Nutshell" — a gritty, unapologetic homage to the golden era of rap. The project doesn’t just nod to the 90’s — it lives in its DNA. "My block growing up was called "the nutshell," it was between two warring projects in the south end. So it [the title] was a play off that my block was the 290th block of Shawmut ave." says Bugsy H.  With razor-sharp lyricism, cinematic street tales and Mephux’s hard-hitting boom-bap soundscapes, "90’s In A Nutshell" feels like a time capsule cracked open, reimagined for today’s audience. It’s equal parts homage and evolution, blending raw authenticity with a modern edge. The chemistry between Bugsy H.’s commanding presence and Mephux’s unmistakable production creates a soundscape that is as nostalgic as it is necessary in today’s climate of disposable singles and fleeting trends.

90’s In A Nutshell is available now on all major streaming platforms.

LATE - "Five Windows" (EP) /High on Life (Produced by Tricksta) Official Music Video

 

LATE returns with Five Windows, a bold and introspective 5-track EP produced entirely by renowned beat-maker Tricksta.

Known for his gritty realism and no-frills lyricism, LATE once again proves why he remains a vital voice in UK hip-hop, delivering a project that’s both personal and universally resonant.

Each track on Five Windows serves as a different perspective, a “window” into a specific mindset, emotion, or moment.

The EP opens with “Generate Heat”, a powerful statement of intent. Over a pounding, cinematic beat, LATE sets the tone with fiery bars, reminding listeners he’s still burning with hunger and purpose.

“High on Life” shifts the energy with a more uplifting bounce, a track that celebrates perseverance, gratitude, and staying grounded despite the odds. It’s a moment of light in the midst of the EP’s raw honesty.

On “Movie Greats”, LATE draws parallels between iconic film characters and real-life struggles. With vivid storytelling and clever metaphors, he paints a picture of survival, ambition, and identity in a world that often blurs fact and fiction.

“No Compassion” brings the EP’s darkest and most uncompromising moment, a cold, street-smart reflection on loyalty, betrayal, and the hard lessons that come with staying real in a fake world.

Closing the project is “Chasing Everyone’s Dream”, a deeply personal and reflective track that questions society’s expectations, the music industry’s illusions, and the pressure to conform.

It’s LATE at his most vulnerable, but also his most powerful. Backed by Tricksta’s diverse, atmospheric production, Five Windows is a concise yet potent body of work that captures the essence of LATE’s journey, mindset, and message
