Here’s Brown Bag AllStars doing big things again. J57, often linked to DJ Eclipse and the legendary DJ Premier has recently remixed a track for Shady Records’ Joell Ortiz. “Feels So Good (J57 Remix)” is the lead single off Ortiz upcoming EP and features cuts by fellow Brown Bagger, DeeJay Element.

After dropping the EP late last summer, denitia and sene are back at it again; this time with a full-fledged collaborative effort. Seven new tracks round out the LP which dropped on 19th, rightfully titled, “his and hers.” Being a big fan of the EP, this project was definitely a long awaited one. Right off the bat, the album starts off with seven tracks produced by Sene (with some post-production and instrumentation help provided by Jay Jennings, Sly5thave and Cooper Heffley). The promise of head bopping production is not lost on this one and denitia starts right where she left off, serenading the crap out of you with her smooth voice.

The standout tracks to check out are casanova., again. (new ride.), trip.fall. and the three original tracks from the EP (she’s not the only one., how to satisfy., and blah blah blah.). This is honestly one of the best projects of 2013 thus far and I strongly encourage all of you to take a listen to the stream below and if you like it, support your independent artists and pick up their LP via iTunes.

Big shout out to J57 and DeeJay Element (Brown Bag AllStars) who were involved in producing both she’s not the only one. and how to satisfy.

Today, we present to you a short film from Q-Borough’s Nutso, for the song “4 Da Streetz,” as featured on his recently released Behind These Bars EP. Directed by Devin Gibson of Monstar Films, the visuals feature Nutso, AG da Coroner, Camiliano, Shaze, and J57, all interconnected in a story of vengeance and defeat. What seems like a simple exchange of money in a hotel room quickly pans into the first link in a long chain of command for an ordered hit. It’s all in the details to figure out each person’s role. Nutso’s list is one list you don’t want find yourself on. Find out if the Queens warrior can rest easy knowing that the job was done properly. Behind These Bars is now available. Now hit the jump for the visuals…

This is off of J57′s 2057 EP, available only here. The video was directed by Rob Levy for MFCP and features Rasheed Chappell with cuts by DJ Brace.

After releasing a barrage of singles, three EPs and countless features, the Q-Borough rhymesayer Nutso, delivers his latest extended play, Behind These Bars. The sharp tongued emcee has enlisted guest features from the likes of Royal Flush, AG Da Coroner (The Outdoorsmen), Blacastan, Shabaam Sahdeeq and more for his latest offering, along with production from Mr. Green, J57, DJ Supa Dave and DJ Concept, among others. Just shy of thirty minutes, BTB provides a solid dosage of that raw; gritty drums, chopped samples and scratch hooks galore. Showcasing some diversity to boot, Nutso takes the project down south with the trap-themed “Weed & Alcohol” and bares no shame professing his adoration for the object of his affection on “For Your Love,” featuring Ms. Mimi. Behind These Bars is now available via iTunes and all other other major digital retailers.
