J-Ro & Tash - "My Style, My Game" (Prod. DJ Devastate)

My good friend J-Ro just dropped his new mixtape "818 Antics Vol.2 " on iTunes & Spotify. The mixtape was first released as a Mix-CD but now it's also out as a full DIGI-release on SickBay Records.

I produced the track "My Style, My Game" Ft. Tash. Real cool to get a chance to work with the legendary Alkaholiks.

Production on Mykill Miers new album "Iron Myk"

Mykill Miers A.K.A The Hitchcock of Hip Hop just dropped a new album called "Iron Myk" today. A great album with features from: Bishop Lamont, Opio ( Souls of Mischief), Sadat X and more. I produced the track "Then The Job Gets Done". Out on ITUNES and CD.

"Underground powerhouse, Mykill Miers, one of Los Angeles' most revered lyricists is embarking on his 5th studio album titled 'Iron Myk' this April.

A bold, mature release; 'Iron Myk' is a culmination of everything Mykill Miers has witnessed and experienced throughout his career from a relative unknown in the scene cutting his teeth on compilation albums and rugged demo classics throughout the 1990's, to releasing his now-classic solo album 'It's Been A Long Time Coming' and his three subsequent releases - 'The Second Coming', 'Trials of Job' and 'Take It In Blood' - as well as his work with his crew, Next Of Kin.

The undeniable lead single 'Give Em Hell' which Mykill Miers produced himself, is the perfect introduction to 'Iron Myk', and captures the intensity and conviction of the Los Angeles hip hop veteran, and underground legend. 'Job Gets Done' produced by Sweden's DJ Devastate serves as the perfect companion track, and in turn captures Mykill Miers' truly international appeal as the two met and began working after Mykill Miers' recent European tour, solidifying his brand and impact on the world as a whole.

Do yourself a favor and cleanse yourself with the true and raw feeling of one of the West Coast's and Hip Hop's finest lyricists with this exclusive selection from April's 'Iron Myk'.

Please visit http://mykillmiers.bandcamp.com/ to preview and purchase Mykill Miers brand new tracks."

Production on Maylay Sparks new album "Shotgun Wedding"

I produced the track "Positive Over Negative" on Maylay Sparks new album "Shoutgun Wedding" Out Now... Some info fo about the project below (Swedish).

"Maylay Sparks - Shotgun Wedding, gästas av Malmö-rapparna Chukk Rukkuz och Rocc Spotz samt innehåller produktion av Skåne-producenter som K Sluggah, DJ Devastate och DJ Connect.

Philadelphia-rapparen Maylay Sparks levererade en legendarisk vers på singeln ”Claimin Respect” med Last Emp och Rakaa Iriescience som spelades in i Danmark under sent 1990-tal. Den Context-producerade vinylsingeln blev en undergroundklassiker av stora mått och kanske var det därför Maylay Sparks stannade i den danska huvudstaden Köpenhamn och numera gjort det till sitt hem både privat och karriärmässigt. Under 2000-talet har Maylay gjort ett flertal EP- och albumsläpp genom olika kanaler och även samarbetat med ett flertal svenska och danska artister.

I dagarna är Maylay Sparks albumaktuell med nya skivan ”Shotgun Wedding” där han fått assistans av svenska producenter som Skåne-baserade K Sluggah, DJ Devastate och DJ Connect. Även finländaren Sakke Alto och kroatiske Koolade står bakom ett antal spår på skivan. På rapfronten gästar bland annat Muddy Fatique-crewet från Malmö med Chukk Rukkuz och Rocc Spotz i spetsen. J-Ro, Dave Ghetto och Styliztik Jones bidrar även med verser till albumet."
