If you were fucking with Chuck Inglish’s Loosies trunk-rattler “Four 12s” then man, does he have a treat for you: Droptops, a nine-track collection of slow rolling, speaker busting rap music. Grab it now!
On their Loosies contribution, “Dedicated,” Freeway and producer Chad “Wes” Hamilton harken back to the golden era of the early Aughts when Roc-A-Fella reigned supreme, thanks to gritty yet soulful hip-hop like their State Property collabs (there’s a reason Peedi shouts out “Chad…Chad Wes on track!”)
In this exclusive FG interview with writer Matthew Trammell, the duo reveal how “Dedicated” came together, reminisce on the early days (and current state) of the Roc, and discuss how they’ve reconciled their own legacies. Get Loosies now on iTunes and all digital services, as well as a limited-edition USB box set.
The video is out for A-Trak and friends’ psychedelic, parole-violatin’ posse cut. Must THC TV! Roll with Trizzy and friends Jim Jones, Flatbush Zombies, El-P and Flosstradamus (and the spiritual essence of Juicy J) on a particularly smoked out night in NYC. A$AP Mob, World’s Fair and more come along for the ride, Shomi Patwary works the cameras, and the whole thing is appropriately turnt. Get the track and much more on our compilation Loosies, out now!
Get wavy in the studio with Chuck Inglish and Casey Veggies (with a guest spot from Polyester) as they put together “Sauna,” off our rap compilation Loosies (out now on iTunes and deluxe USB box set). Aw man! Read More
Western Tink and Beautiful Lou combined forces for the woozy, lo-fi “Trill Hoe” on our Loosies compilation, and now Tink (who lets be honest, has one of the best names in the entire rap game) drops this appropriately tweaked video for the cut, where he marauds through San Antonio with a Toys R Us ratchet on a robbing spree for Valentines. Hear more on his Bandcamp.
