The always grinding super producer Illmind is back at it again, continuing his Blaps, Rhymes and Life mixtape series with this latest and 5th installment. It’s another gigantic release with two jam-packed discs worth of music – a total of 34 tracks. The artist list reads as a who’s who of Hip-Hop but of greatest […]
Read More Illmind x Dub MD Release Blaps, Rhymes & Life Vol. 5Boxer Nonito Donaire recently chose to walk into the stadium for his fight to Deep Foundation & Hydroponikz’s Filipino anthem – “Children of the Sun“. That’s some pretty cool placement for the artists and an encouraging sign of inter-culture support across multiple domains. The track is off the DF album The First Draft. Honestly, it’s a very […]
Read More Boxer Nonito Donaire Walks out to Deep Foundation x Hydroponikz’s “Children of the Sun”I wasn’t familiar with Soulchef before this week, nor is he an Asian American, but his album Remember When is this Week’s Thursday Freebie on a-Tunes. Why? Well first of all, Vox Merger & Hydroponikz are among the list of MC’s featured on the album and secondly, this is just a plain sick collection of […]
Read More WTF: Soulchef – Remember WhenIn more album release news, frequent collaborators Deep Foundation & Hydroponikz have linked up again, this time for a full album they call Generation ILL. It isn’t too long, clocking in at 10 tracks, with several of them being bonus, but if the rest of the album turns out anything like the title track, it […]
Read More Deep Foundation x Hydroponikz Drop the Generation Ill AlbumHydro has his plate full with multiple projects set for release later this year but that doesn’t mean he can’t drop a little freebie mixtape. With that he brings us the “Can’t Afford Beats” mixtape. It’s just a little collection of tracks to hold us over until the official new material is out. DL the […]
Read More Hydroponikz Releases the “Can’t Afford Beats” MixtapeThe fellas from DF along with Hydroponikz and Anika Hazel have teamed up for what they dub a “freemix” of B.o.B. and Bruno Mars’ huge hit “Nothin’ On You”. As you probably guessed, it’s a free DL. It’s a decent track but it doesn’t have the same charm as the original. It’s hard to top […]
Read More Deep Foundation x Hydroponikz x Anika Hazel Remix ‘Nothin On You’Here’s another interview from ChannelAPA’s East Coast tour. This time they talk with NY-based Deep Foundation, showing why their group name is truly applicable as their love Hip-Hop and their own ethnic Filipino heritage has really grounded them and runs deep in everything they do. They also mention what it was like to work with […]
Read More Deep Foundation Interview w/ channelAPAEarlier this month shock jock Adam Carolla made some incredibly stupid comments in the “name of humor” about Manny Pacquaio and the people of the Philippines in general. As you can imagine, a lot of people got heated to the point where they went after his sponsors. Under intense pressure Adam issued a somewhat ambiguous apology, whether or not […]
Read More Deep Foundation x Hydroponikz Release An Adam Carolla Diss TrackCheck out the new MV for the song ‘Time Goes By’ by re:plus featuring Hydroponikz on the verses and Anika Hazel on the hook. It’s a beautifully arranged track but it’s too bad none of the artists are in the video (that I can tell anyways). The track is off re:plus’s album Everlasting Truth, available […]
Read More Hydroponikz Features on re:plus Track – Time Goes ByYou may remember Illmind droping BR&L Vol. 3 back in July of this year but he’s back at it again, this time with a double disc release! You can tell the guy has been grinding hard as he’s put together 30 tracks with a whole slew of artists in cluding Mistah Fab, KRS-One, Buckshot, DJ […]
