Aesop Rock’s Side Project Set To Drop On Rhymesayers (Video)

The debut record from Aesop’s latest project Hail Mary Mallon, a collaboration with fellow abstract lyricist Rob Sonic and DJ Big Wiz, is set to drop this summer on Rhymesayers Entertainment. For a taste of what to expect from these gentlemen on the full-length, give a listen to “D Up” (their contribution to Definitive Jux Presents 4) or the instant banger “Smock” from their performance at last month’s SXSW.

The last of the SXSW articles : 26 bands + South by Superlatives (MP3)

No pictures, no nothing. Just words and music links. This article wants you to know what we think and the words are written below for you to find out more. Everyone is created equal but if you see the pics you might not click the link and get music from the artist. Take your time here and share this with friends. Hours were spent partying in the Texas sun, passing business cards, getting free tacos at parties (the good ones) and watching bands and films promote their butts off while they played multiple shows per day.

Charles Bradley, “The World (Is Going Up In Flames)” (MP3)

Charles Bradley is one of those voices that’s tough to even come close to because everytime he sings you feel like his tongue is coiling onto your wrist and winding you on the voyage that was his life. Charles was working a series of odd end jobs before someway, somehow at his golden youth was located and is now under the wings of the Daptone family. Charles Bradley’s cool, not retro and just right for the times. You can catch his spectacular debut album No Time For Dreaming out now and at SXSW.
