I just got through my second listen of the Snowgoons upcoming album, Black Snow, which drops June 24th and just as I expected it’s nuts! These guys are really on their production game. Germany has that fiyahhh! Take sometime out and download these cuts. On top of the dope beats, the guest spots are sweet. Apathy & Ill Bill collab for the title cut while RA the Rugged Man straight MERKS his appearance (like usual). I really need a new album from dude. Then I’ll finish it up with a cool Molemen x Snowgoons connection!

Just before I get ready to watch a few shows with the misses, I wanted to post this new project that Omer Saar (of UniverSOUL Productions) sent me earlier today. I’m a sucker for cool concepts and revisions of great music done well. Omer does his thing on the production side of things chopping and mixing classic tracks from Al Green while a capellas from the likes of Jay-Z, MF DOOM, Biggie, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes and more. For more info and a download link hit up Omer’s blog. Tracklist and artwork after the jump…

As if dropping two tracks off the upcoming C.R.A.C. album weren’t enough. Shake is back with some new Blu. He dropped it on his MySpace for the monthly download, but like usual the YSI link expires in seconds. I missed it as well, but luckily enough I have a few connections. So here is the latest from your girl’s favorite color. Featuring Definite and Myth (of Strange Fruit Project). A great track for your collection. And since I’m in a good mood, how about two tracks produced from Blu as a bonus. The first by Sene. Who in which Blu has formed yet another group, together as A Day Late & A Dollar Short. And the second track is from Co$$ off the Godly Project. Edit: Just noticed Blu has another blog up, which features the verse that Blu sent in for Talib Kweli’s Hostile Gospel (rmx). So I’ll include that as well (lyrics after the jump)…
