Faith-based hip hop that’s not preachy or boring. Good stuff outta Detroit.


You can find a bunch more on soundcloud here.

MACHETE BLAK-Action Figures (EP)

9th Wonder produced this EP. He’s renowned in the rap game for his work with Jay-Z and Little Brother. When you hear a 9th Wonder track, you pretty much know it right away. It’s smooth. It feels like getting lifted. That’s what you’ll hear here.

Machete Blak is pretty good–nice flow, and it matches well with 9W production.

Oh, and it’s free. So it costs you nothing to check it out.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE-Fresh Boy Spit

This is from 2010, so I slept for two years. But it was worth wait.

Good, free hip hop.

Check it out.
