Roscoe Umali Features on “The Ballad of Lost Angels” by Deux Process
“The Ballad of Lost Angels” is a new track by Deux Process that features some one we haven’t heard from in a while… Uuuuuumali. It’s good to hear that “The Freshest Filipino” hasn’t lost a step as he contributes to this strong West Coast Hip-Hop track. I gotta be honest, I miss listening to rap music like this – too many rappers are on that Drake/Big Sean/Wayne tip right now, so this is a refreshing listen. Get it via the soundclick widget below!
SUNZOO Releases 2nd Version of “Get Down” MV
SUNZOO must have thought that one MV wasn’t enough for their single “Get Down”. The first dropped a couple months back, directed by Rik Cordero. The new version goes in a completely different direction with a combination of live footage, green screen work, and kinetic typography. It’s a dope song with two pretty dope videos, I guess the only question is which one do you like more?
SUNZOO Drops the “Get Down” MV
It’s only been a week but they’ve done it again. New international super group SUNZOO have just dropped a new MV for the single “Get Down”. Directed by Rik Cordero, we got Illmind on the beat, Roscoe Umali, Tasha, and Tiger JK on the mic. I’m loving the old school bar/lounge motif too. These truly are a collection of veterans that haven’t lost a thing. I’m legit excited for every single release from them.
Tiger JK x T x Roscoe Umali x Illmind x Styliztik Jones form New Super Group – SUNZOO
Tiger JK, Tasha, Roscoe Umali, Styliztik Jones, and Illmind have been hinting at this project for MONTHS but it’s all finally come together. You are witnessing the formation of a new super group called SUNZOO featuring artists from two different countries, of various nationalities, all ripping it in the name of Hip-Hop. There are a few more names attached to the project, including old school Drunken Tiger DJ James Jhig and Rik Codero. They will be promoted via Korean broadcast TV. Check out the first two MV’s for the songs “On & On” and “My Time” respectively. This is an epic project, and I can’t wait to here more from them.

Illmind x Drunken Tiger x Tasha x Roscoe Umali To Collab; Perform w/ Kanye & Lupe!?
The past day or so Roscoe Umali has been tweeting some incredibly exciting news that I’ll just quote verbatim.
@RoscoeUmali X @IllmindProducer X @DrunkenTigerJK X @Yoonmirae = 2010 Classic BoomBap Shit!!!! STAY TUNED!!!!!
It’s not a Rumor: @RoscoeUmali X @DrunkenTiger X @Yoonmirae X Lupe Fiasco X Kanye West = Korea!!! August 9th!!! LETS GO!!!!!
In general, all I can say is OH… EM… GEE. So it looks like there’s gonna be another track with Roscoe, DT, and Tasha onboard, only it’ll be produced by the legendary Illmind. ON TOP OF THAT, it seems like their gonna join Lupe Fiasco and Kanye West for a show in Korea on August 9th!!!!!! I’m very seriously considering draining my funds and buying a plane ticket to Korea, cause where else can you see that line up?
Tasha x JK x Roscoe x Dumbfoundead x Tassho Pearce x Epik High x Jay Jaballas & MORE feature on Rakaa’s “Ambassador Slang”
This track is a MUST-LISTEN. Definitely one of the nicest hip-hop tracks I’ve heard this year and it features a TON of artists that we regularly feature on a-Tunes. Rakaa Iriscience has put together this mega track for his upcoming album Crown of Thorns set to drop July 20th. Check out this line up!
Tasha, Tiger JK, Roscoe Umali, Chiefsons, Dumbfoundead, Tassho Pearce, Epik High, Jay Jaballas and King Kapisi all jumped on this beat produced by the one and only DJ Honda.
If you can’t wait to hear the track you’re in luck because it’s now available for streaming on Rakaa’s Myspace; just click on “Ambassador Slang” in the music player.
For an indepth review of the track, check out HalfKorean’s thoughts as they were lucky enough to preview the song in full a while back.
Roscoe Umali Featured on “On My Hype” by Go Gettas
Roscoe Umali is a man that lives and dies by the West and has linked up with another left coast group – the Go Gettas. They have a new music video out for the single “On My Hype” featuring Roscoe on the opening verse. I’m not crazy about this flavor of hip-hop, I guess I’m just not California enough but the video quality is super crisp. Mr. Umali does his thing and has the best verse (in my opinion). What do you guys think?

Speaking of which, hopefully we’ll have some exciting news for you soon on that front but that’s a completely different story =P.
