It’s been awhile since I’ve heard anything new from Jean Grae, so seeing that she dropped a new track put a smile on my face. “The Bridge” is produced by RJD2, and features Mela Machinko. The track comes from the “Year of the Blacksmith Community” mixtape presented by Talib Kweli an Blacksmith Music. It’s a little something to wet your lips before her she drops her new LP, “Cake or Death“, in spring of 2011.

Gangrene‘s latest video for “Take Drugs” (off of their “Gutter Water” album, available now), is craaaazy. Then again, kidnapping the delivery guy, duct taping him to a chair, shaving his head, and smearing paint over his eyes did cross my mind once. Haha, nah, but the beat bangs… and the lyrics are intense! But if I ever open a door and there stands a fat guy with bunny ears on, a pig head in one hand and a rifle in the other… I’m running.

I just got put up on Homeboy Sandman by a buddy of mine last month. I like his flow and he’s dope lyrically, so I’ll definitely be keeping my ears in tune with this fella. And I read an interview that he did somewhere, and I like where his head is at too. Sandman seems like a really chill and positive person, which is always a plus in my book. He can be my homeboy…

Anyway, his latest video for the song, “Strange Planet”, is from his album, “The Good Sun” (on High Water Music). He gives you an interesting perspective on this familiar planet… Earth. Watch below.
