Eternia & Rel McCoy - FREE

Eternia & Rel McCoy’s debut collaborative album, FREE is a liberating ‘beauty from ashes’ sonic journey from two of Canada’s hip-hop greats. The album represents a grand comeback for Eternia, who in 2010 released the Juno Award-nominated At Last with producer MoSS on Fat Beats Records. Transformative events changed her life since that release, including personal triumphs (starting a family) coinciding with personal struggles (mental/physical health) and artistic struggles (this project was rebooted), all while navigating a global pandemic and the isolation that ensues. FREE is born of these experiences as she partners with Rel McCoy, a Juno Award-winning producer she compliments heavily for providing the incredible soundscapes on the record, as well as contributing a few vocal appearances.

It’s easy to hear just what she means on standout singles like the warm and nostalgic “Most PPL” and moody and haunting “Home,” the latter of which features fellow Canadian talents Shad and SHEAL. These are lyrically rich, profound tracks that are both easy to follow but brimming with layers, effortlessly walking us through complex themes with straight-shooting simplicity as only veterans can do. From Eternia’s attention-grabbing vocals to Rel’s nostalgic and melodic blend of boom bap production, FREE is just as engaging as it is organic.

Rel big-ups his collaborator for why the record sounds like it does. “She has an excellent ear and knows what she’s looking for when she has a song concept in mind,” he says. “Her selection of beats is what kept it diverse and interesting.”

Speaking of concepts, there are almost too many dope ones on FREE to name. But perhaps the most gripping is “The Story of Us,” one of two collaborations with her husband, Mr. Lif (the other track being “Secret”). The track outlines how the two met, fell in love, and became a family, and it boasts heavenly vocals from Eliki on the hook.

Beyond the singles, Eternia just wants her listeners to emotionally connect with FREE. “I hope people take the whole record in,” she says. “But even if they just take in a song here and there, I hope it leaves them feeling—ANY feeling.” For the hip-hop world at-large, there’s certainly a feeling of appreciation, and the hope we don’t have to wait another decade for more fire from Eternia.

FREE can be supported now through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms along with a limited run of butterscotch-colored vinyl available now for pre-order through Fat Beats. Eternia & Rel McCoy would like to acknowledge funding support from the Ontario Arts Council, an agency of the Government of Ontario.

RhymeCult - CULTivation (Music Video)


Deep from the scuzzy underbelly of Peterborough, amid the perpetual black void of slime and filth, dwell the Rhymecult. Fashioned by a heretic adoration for dusty breaks and samples; boom bap at its most debauch; they bring you into the ceremonious fold with a sound so old school it's probably banned in a number of countries. The debut single from #rhymeCULT drops this Friday on 4 The Culture Records Featuring emcees Free1smind, Mr Scrolls and Mr B, with Inos supplying the neck breaking beat, #RhymeCULT's debut single is an absolute banger.

#RhymeCULT is a new movement coming out of 4TC Records In 2021, focused on the grittiest, filth laden boombap possible, tearing up stages with shows of killer lyricism and deadly flows.

The video for " CULTivation" was directed, filmed and edited by Sarkastik Hound, who also mastered the track and he will be supplying #RhymeCULT with some of the filthiest beats from his collection in the future!"

Northern Structure - No Design (Album)

"Four friends with a shared passion is really all this album needed to come together. There was never really a plan or design brief; it was a series of studio sessions that was facilitating face to face contact throughout the strangest of years more than anything.

As the album began to materialise the idea that there really is no manual or guide book to this life became more and more apparent and as a civilisation it seemed everyday was a new challenge under these new laws. Although this period of life drained us of our usual comforts and entertainment and buried our routines built up over years under a blanket of uncertainty and fear there still managed to be room for creative output and this project is truly a testament to that willingness to grind through the darker times.

Sculpted from a track list nearly double the size this project had been carefully curated to reflect the times we are in but also the idea that being an artist is generally about bringing happiness not only to ourselves but the people around us. This one is for the people who have stood by Northern Structure throughout the years. Thank you for rocking with us!"

Vocab Slick - "What It Is" (Official Video)

 

With his long-awaited Language LP finally set to drop in October, Vocab Slick ramps up the hype for the project with the stylish new video for “What It Is.”

The track finds the Bay Area emcee teaming up with frequent collaborators Surebert, who provides the grimy, bass-driven production, as well as Starski, who’s on directorial duties in the visuals. The clip centers mostly on Vocab as he talks his sh*t to the camera in a number of different, dimly lit settings.

It’s a fitting setup for “What It Is,” primarily because the track itself does lean into the slightly darker side of the rapper’s mindset. With good reason, of course, because he’s clearly tired of all the BS, like other people trying to weigh him down with their unfounded opinions and criticisms. It’s just too bad for them that he’s too focused and well-equipped with lines like, “Truth is, I’m ruthless/ And known for overdoing anything I ever thought was worth pursuing/ Y’all foolish and clueless/ Prone to being stupid to ever think I’m nothing but superhuman, a mutant.”

Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred digital retailer or streaming platform to support. The Language LP is due out Oct. 29 on all major DSPs via DR Music.


Noveliss - Sincerity and Reverence (Prod. by Dixon Hill)


Noveliss of Detroit group Clear Soul Forces releases visuals for "Sincerity and Reverence" off his upcoming album "Book of Changes", which is scheduled to be released November 19th.
The first collaboration album between Noveliss and Dixon Hill comes in the form of a concept album based on the I Ching or 'Book of Changes'. The track list was constructed using the ancient text and its overall theme stems from the wisdom therein.

Conceived, written, and recorded in isolation, 'Book of Changes' sets Noveliss as a hermetic sage seeking balance and enlightenment over Dixon Hill's ethereal musical backdrops.

Dixon Hill used samples, live instruments, and field recordings to create the sonic template for this record. Each song transition smoothly from one to another using melodic elements and natural sounds to tether the songs together for a cohesive listening experience.

Noveliss is as lyrical as ever, weaving complex rhymes through Hill's melodic boom bap. The lyrical themes on this album deal with feelings of isolation, meditation, balance, travel, and Taoist wisdom.

Each song corresponds with a different section of the I Ching and is represented by a Hexagram from each section. Listeners can discover a deeper meaning in each track by referencing the Hexagrams on the back cover. The album is meant to be played on repeat for full effect.

Check out the video and pre-save the album below.
