P.U.R.E. Conquest of the Irrational feat. Kaedus Hines x Caps

Ravens in the building! P.U.R.E. comes with brother in arms Kaedus Hines for literal lyrical onslaught. Add in the Raven Caps for good measure. This shxt right here nxxxa this shxt right Here! Crazy! Raven Corps is shaping up to be a RAP crew along the likes of Wu-Tang / Pro Era! And I can’t wait to see this crew live! This is one off of P.U.R.E.’s up coming Omlette Du Homage project. If the project ends up sounding anything like this then we have another one waiting to go into rotation. @JaceMythic / @KaedusHines / @RavenCorps

Plewto Smith – Spiffy

The Raven Corps affiliated Plewto Smith brings us the thatsClassik Clothing sponsored Spiffy. Plewto Smith was a relatively unknown in the scene before just recently as his star has been rising & with a listen to Spiffy you can definitely see why. His recent drop of the Clayco single produced by Wino Willy has definitely aided the anticipation of the drop along with his energetic performance. (last show I attended he trough candy into the crowd) With a first listen it reminded me of early Outkast. Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik / ATLien era. It’s smooth but has a definite constant flow along with Smith’s surprising vocal range early on. This is definitely entering the rotation. I has the all to rare “press play and let it stay” quality that to many project of recent memory are lacking. This is for sure a must listen. Hypebeast going in. S/O the thatsClassik & Raven Corps establishments. @PlewtoSmith

Bias the Black – as the game gently weeps (lbb004)

Bias the Black continues to rerelease older material through his (littleblackbirds) project. If you have ever been to a LRDRVN show then you know this one. Crowd favorite definitely. The live version has evolved over time but this one still holds up just do to shear lyrical acrobatics and the killer Beatles sample. Dopeness from the Far Out Family / Raven Corps allegiance. Can’t wait to hear what this BLACKhudii is going to sound like. @BiastheBlack

Far Out Family – #NEWATLISH (dir. Drew & Co.)

FartherOut.com brings us the visual for the grooving NEWATLISH. I really dig this day in the life of style. It really feels like an introduction to these guys and it seems like they called the whole family out for this one. Love how the chill nature of this goes perfect with the audio. I’ve seen them on stage and I love the chemistry of these guys. I hope in the the next visual we get to see some of that. I also like how we get to see the respective crews. Glenn Saddler with his boy behind him & Bias the Black being backed by the Raven Corps (murder! lol!) Dopeness guys really fucking with this one. S/O to the Far Out Family (fartherout.com) and the Raven Corps. Also to Drew & Co. who has directed a couple of Wara from the NBHD’s videos you may be familiar with. @FarOutFamily / @glennsaddler / @BiastheBlack / @_theLiving_

I wonder how long he has been sitting on this one. Shit is way dope. looking forward to (lbb002) S/O to FartherOut.com and the whole Raven Corps establishment. @BiastheBlack

Bias the Black – COUNT23 feat. 2ony Murray

 photo COUNT23-Video-Stills-BW_zps2e714ba8.gif First off digging the gif artwork. Everybody who knows us knows we are a sucker for all things anime and and you can never go wrong with a Cowboy Bebop nod. So here we got the FartherOut.com brethren Bias the Black using his Raven Corps affiliation and teaming up with the relatively new to the scene 2ony (pronounced Tony) Murray. A real collaboration here. Each spends almost exactly the same amount of time on the mic which is why I assume the artwork opts for the “x” instead of the “feat”. Bias attacks it a little differently than we are use to seeing him opting for a less lyrical and more aggressive approach while 2ony gives us a story straight from the torn down Atlanta projects. We can really dig this one. (Insider Info: If you listen closely to the chorus you can hear Bias’ wifey ALLIExperience counting with them.) @BiastheBlack / Murray_3rdShift / @FarOutFamily / @RavenCorps

Shalom Little – Brolic Bounce

I really dig this visual. It feels like a look into the genesis of the still young man Shalom Little (1/3 of the SubConscious crew). I mean from the looks of it the clips from the video could possibly span years in separation which is really impressive for a dude who is really just hitting the scene. Also I’m going to take this opportunity to speak on the boys mixtape “the SubJAKKKK” in which he lyrically pounces on jacked beats. You can really feel his New York origins all over the project. The flow is smooth and aggressive, lyrically strong, and care free at the same time in a way that is usually reserved for New York rappers. Definitely worth a play through with no weak spots on this first solo outing. Click HERE for the download. Shout out to Wino Willy for the added production. Also shout out to the SubConscious boys and the whole Raven Corps crew. Y’all got a nice one here. @ShalomLittle / @sbCNCS / @RavenCorps / @Black_ChinaKid
