Elliott - Clarify and Grow [Project Submission]

You can hear the God in him and that is something to fear. 

Elliott is introducing himself to the /CW audience base with an assertive project he calls Clarify and Grow. This project challenges the track to success. College, music, money, religion,  love, dreams, and realities. What are the options? What will be the outcome? It is too early to say, but there is no doubt that he is willing to work for it. 

A crips 9 tracks with nostalgic production woven masterfully through, Elliott’s bars are not meaningless. They are stroked with layered ideologies, swaying in a space we like to call the “introduction to adulthood”, and drenched in the aura of something heavy to provoke or to prove.

“I’m a God body. I’m only living for the ni**as that would die by me”.

Where do we draw the genre line? Listen….we draw it wherever it moves you. This could be R&B, Hip Hop, New Era Gospel. It is what it is. The lifestyle is not a monolith and that’s the stuff we rock with.

Our favorite tracks are “Late For Class”, “More and Less”, and “The World We Live In”. 

So we are going to have to make at least one #CWApproved. 

Keep on the lookout for this new talent. We expect to be seeing more from him.

Taiyamo Denku & Urban Legend - Not From New York prod by Bo Faat video by CTMFILMs

Hip Hop is now global and so is the impact from its places of origin. Including NYC. around here we have our own method of doing things but one must be in tune with other spaces to survive the ride.

This video from Taiyamo Denku & Urban Legend, “Not From New York”, plays up on that logic. Classic hip hop flows, production and street vibes. 

Your welcome!

2Hi - Keys to the Nexus [Executively Prod. By No B]

See this one is clever. Even if we can't fully follow the vibes there are always some gems in there. 

2Hi, is pressing some of those futuristic rap elements with his project Keys to Nexus. It’s man-ish but that’s not surprising. The key is who is pressing on the follow through with the imagery? Check some of the the track titles:

• FOLLOW ME

• PROGRAMMED 

• CRUISE CONTROL

It’s robotic. It's strategic. It's the digital programming of the young mind and the over saturated digital world. Are we reading in too far? Tuh! Y’all not thinking deep enough.

Tap in and tell us where you see the lie!

Joe Quinto - Blue Genes

What is this truth we seek and reality we live in?

Joe Quinto has dropped a new project called Blue Genes that has us questioning just that. From the mix of hip hop and folk music, the subtle grasping for a second wind in life's fight is present in a firm pollination of locality [it’s Wisconsin baby] and imagery. 

“For many, it’s been a tough year to pinpoint exactly how we feel about our chaotic world right now. Joe Quinto is no exception. He’s had a difficult time expressing his inner turmoil of anxiety, uncertainty, and frustration. Even the simple tasks get exhausting. Blue Genes is about acknowledging those tribulations on one hand and working through them with the other.” 

Our favorite track is definitely “Just Breathe”  featuring Klassik, with its calming melody and reflection.

Is this one a knockout? We will let you decide this round.

Eddie Jame$ - Lottery (video submission)

Let me get a PICK 3.

Showing up with his video “Lottery”, Eddie Jame$ is showing us discreetly about that life. 

Shiny coat and all [its a look], the visuals move natural to a track that has a nice little sway to it. A few punchlines, some ego, and some wit, it's catchy. 

Eddie Jame$ is a wild card in the current MKE music scene. And you know what you do with a wild card right?

Keep it ready. You might even win the “Lottery”.

Shun Millions - More To Say (EP submission)

It’s Shun time! The moment, the movement, the method. . . We are betting on Mr. Millions.

No longer can we call this one a youngin’. With growth and experience laying down the bars, Shun Millions is still smooth rolling with those Northside MKE to Cali vibes. The clean production and atmospheric rap riffs create a moment. Is it freeze frame high vibes? Hazy elevation? Raindrops rolling down the window panes? Whatever the intention the execution is we cant turn it off. 

Fav Track: “Time Up” [it's just the right one]

We have had the privilege of seeing Shun bloom as an artist and this project shows that our early predictions about his sound were right.

If you haven't been listening before, it's not too late. Clearly he has “More To Say”.

HymnWho - Apophenia4000 (EP submission)

Are you in the mood for something different? Well get set because this one right here is out of this world.

Artist/producer/songwriter HymnWho is setting us up with some futuristic layers of production, synthesizing, and hypnotic lyricism. This sound might have an industry name, but we don’t want to box it in. 

Apophenia4000 is a six track EP. It is a clever standout from the confines that resound the moniker “Milwaukee Music”. It is either crazy or genius, but either way its something to talk about.

Check it out and let us know what you think.

2Hi - Flawless (video submission)

“Give me 50 feet. You can’t catch the glow.”

Is it the DMV vibe, or the Bay undertones? Someone point it out for us! All we know is that 2Hi is giving us all the cocky swift lines we expect from a young blood. 

With a dope visual created by @lxrdfredo and production by No B, there is something we can't quite put our finger on busting through the lines of creativity.

Just do what you doin 2Hi, it will come to us.

TG Music - RHYMELANGUAGE (project submission)

Like fast rhymes? Well there is TG Music for that.

This midwest connect is back again with a layered project called RHYMELANGUAGE.

It’s a mix of experimental production, a soul sample, some fast bars, and a lot of mental twist.Is this word play. Mind f*ckin, and poetry? Maybe.

Our favorite track has to be “Dippin’ Around” with the fire sample and the line that made us go “damn”: 

“Yea I really hate your guts but that has never got me in it.”

& on that note, we are out!

Evisu Mane - Minding my Business (video submission)

See the problem is y’all nosy!

[I said what I said]

Evisu Mane, has a cure for all the extra curiosity with his video “Minding my Business”. The track is a nice little bop, accompanied by playful banter reminding you that those of us focused on our own bag don’t have time to be consumed with what other people are doing.

[Accept for you bitters. We see you peeking. Go ahead and put them in check for us Evisu.] 

This is the type of track that may lift a heavy spirit and switch way over to a hustle and grind aura. Go ahead and mind y’all business after giving this a few plays.
