Just Due Sampler Vol. 2 (feat. D&G)
Just Due recently dropped a compilation of tracks from their roster to act as a glimpse into their current and upcoming releases. To bridge off of the recent Monstarrrrs "Rampage" LP it features various cuts with all three members, Stak, Ace & Big Oil. With that in mind, the jump off track is none other than D&G's "So Hellified" to bring the pain.
Get your Just Due and Stay Hellified!

Monstarrrs - Rampage (Ace-One, Stakzilla, Big Oil)
Release the Kraken!!!
Monstarrrs is one of Ace-One's many groups and side projects. The Rapmonster, the Kraken, the Kaiju... Goliath... this rap titian is on a RAMPAGE and he brought company with Stakzilla on the rhymes and Big Oil on the beats. These Monstarrrs follow the themes that Ace's carried throughout his last few LPs/projects and like an ungodly disaster on a great city, the Monstarrrs come stomping through leaving a wake of destruction in their path.
With the energy and chest pounding bravado of a wrestling theme, "Takeover The Jam Sh%t" sets off the 8 track LP and to quote Ace, "It's ON!" The trio are on monster mash busting beats, rhymes and eardrums throughout the whole project as it goes from the above mentioned track to the closing "Change Sh%t."
The tempos may change, the energy may ebb and flow, but it is nothing but a bumrush from the trio. An end to end burner and much like any disaster, this LP attacks with force... and before you know it... it's calm as we see the devastation laid from the Monstarrrs. But, unlike the monster movies of old, we want the rampage to continue and for the Monstarrrs to return.

R-Juna - "The Inner Voice Part 2 EP"
Strongroots Records is a co-op boutique, but if there was an underboss, R-Juna would be the one you would "put some RESPEK" on.
The concept is simple... R-Juna on the rhymes, Iris on the beats and DJ Spoolz on the cuts. As simple as that is, it's also a complex project and with many layers. This is a balancing act that many artists have to fight when working on a project tackling concepts like this. Like a "spoonful of sugar" you need to find a way to get people to take their medicine and R-Juna has done that without coming across as too preachy. Iris is in top form with the production providing a sugar laced head nodding backdrop for R-Juna to weave verses to. And Spoolz wraps the bow on the package with precision cuts. Guests are kept simple to Richard Cook and Ace One on "No Worries" allowing Juna to flex fully but allow what guests are on the project to shine like AZ did on Nas' debut.
This is probably the best I've heard from Juna and it easily makes me want another dose.

It was just a little over a month ago when JO dropped his Kurt Cobain video and here we are with the follow up, "Dues." Prepping for the release of his "Grown Man Business" LP in May, Nevi Moon drops the production with DJ Spoolz cutting up an Ace sample on the hook.
Dues paid indeed.
Amped to cop the full length project. Cop the video and track on soundcloud.

JO - Kurt Cobain video
JO... this guy is a beast. I know I've said it before, but I 1st heard him on Ace-One's "Knuckle Scrapper" and was just blown away by the voice, flow and pure bravado that JO brought to the mic. We then heard him kill the summer of 2014 with the PHD - "Unexpected" album with The Klink & DJ Spoolz. Through conversations and posts JO would hint at a full length solo project and now here we are with the video for Kurt Cobain.
Cold rhymes, cold track... and dayum that white fur. Cold killin' em on some Kurt Cobain ish produced by Nevi Moon and directed by the Brand-it Bandit.
"Grown Man Business" is dropping April 5th, keep it locked!!!
