As you have heard by now if your into the lv hip-hop scene tribeland records is out to takeover stacking its roster with nothing but the illest emcees in the valley, one of there newest recruits is easton native ed monsta who started gaining a good local buzz with camgrounds with the lv anthem A.B.E now hes about to release his debute mixtape monster wieght. Hes been dropping a few tracks to get people know what to expect. One of these tracks is the infectious never will i. The hook is a little confusing "never ever will i am" "im so damn high my body feels wieghtless" so he was def baked while spitting this witch deffintly was a plus cus his lyrics and delivery go hard all thouought this track. "quilitine flow heads for the banquet all u can eat 16's ove flame shit" deffintly creative. Monsta keeps steady thoughout the whole track. The 2nd flow he rtrys switchign up his flwo to a more spitfire fast styled flow witch he pulls off flawless while he goes ona multi assault. Dudes deffintly a versitle emcee. dffintly a banger

murdoc the polo affair ALBUM REVIEW

http://www.datpiff.com/MURDOC-Polo-Affair-mixtape.239094.html

Its finally here the highly anticpated debute mixtape from tribeland records artist murdoc. All year around the lehigh valley you've heard people buzzing about this album and i can say he deffintly doesn;t disapoint his fans. Starting off with a smoothly flowed freestle where hits with some witty punchlines "i got food for though im serve u dinner" and stays on his usual cash, guns, bragadio lyrical content. The next track murdoc stays on the same bragadicio im ill mentality with "bring the dj back" where he raps about making girls get losoe to ther emusic and have the dj keep rocking his music. Decently flowed even though the bat is a little off in my mind. The next track is one of my favriote on the album "let the beat rock." He has a steady multiple sylbale flow why spitting lyrics again about drugs and violence witch seems to be a steady subject on this album. At least he gives you a nice song to smoke to with "the sour" "im so high i can sleep with my shades blowing on that kush puffing on that haze but im for that sour" nice smoking anthem again staying with a nice multy entwined flow. The openign hook extends a little bit but if your blazing to this song itll get u in a good mood. This album does have its flows, im not realy feeling like me to much the hook is a little poppish not to poppy though, the beat though is banging. Overall mixtape was a nice debute

Daze Dysh - Rest In Peace YO single review

daze dysh is a up and coming rapper who's alligned with allentowns rising star infamous swag. His latest single rest in peace yo is a dedication to all of his lost friends. First complaint im start off with is the beat is a more club style track not a rest in peace track. I quess he was going for celbrating life, basiing off othe songs due got lyricla talent but he using a more basic style of rhymes for this dedication witch is a little disappointment, and his delivery is more singing then rappen. Theres so many flaws heer but as a song this song goes in so its deffintly gunna impress his fan base

skin of my teeth marz bar 6/15/2011 SHOW REVIEW

http://www.myspace.com/skinofmyteeththeband

you know your out expecting to have a good time when theres 3 dollar shots, 7 dollar coors light pitchers, and some heavy hitting rock music from one of the area's most loved cover bands. Easton natives skin of my teeth put one one hell of a show at marz bar and grille in phillipsburg yesterday. There set did start off a little slow playing some mellow covers like shimmer by fuel. There out to please there fans though and played a various of request. They interacted with the crowd dancing and moshing with the fans in the front while putting on a high energy perforance. The crowd was deffintly hyped up drunk girls in the front row dancing sexual acting like fulls, even one fan fell down on the lead isngers foot. Professionals as they were they helped pick her up and get the show going. Even though there more known for a cover band some of the biggest highlites of there set were oringial tracks off there long awaited debute album. The lead singer stated that it was 6 years in the making. Another highlite of the show was the cover of king of leons sex on fire.It pumped the crowd up of all ages and got a huge applause after the set. Now im not the one who usually likes cover bands but they got there set down on point. You know wyour going to be big when you have a crow of peopel rocking your shirts. deffintly a enjoyable show and i recremend if your into heavy rock and good covers make sure you catch them at a bar near you.

Frames "My Time is Now"

offically this is my open opinion before i get people bitching but meatbeatz is hands down the best producer in the lehigh valley, and his beats are gracing the lehigh valleys illest spitters. starting off the year by lacing the beats for the lv's current top emcee this year in automatic to one of the lv's best newcomers in frames. Dudes got a ear for talent that is needed in the local scene. Helping out this track is the nicley shot video by j- nuno that has frames spitting around his home town. Now im not the best mainstream fan so the beginning singing hook inst my style but when frames starts rapping, he brings a deep look into his struggle to make it in the rap game. "i came from the lowdown dirty gutta" he vividly lets you know the struggles he went though that help inspite his rhyme. He prays to god for forgivness for the mistakeas he made but in a recession era he knows its not that easy to make it. The hook gives hope to his struggles and any one who listings to it. "i paid my dues i earned my damn crown struggles long enough my time is now." it deffintly is im deffintly have good feelings about frames

DoeBoy "Dont Leave Me Lonely" (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

What up 610, its been over a month since i posted any reviews between legal issues and family shit i haven't had much time to do reviews. Now im back for the moment and i got a lot of catching up to do. Im start off by reviewing p-burgs rap hero doughboys 2nd single off his debut mixtape lunchbox coming out soon. hes definitely out to make a splash hiring one of the lv's best video producers in jason ramerez to shoot the video. To start off the beat is insane. The opening king floyd sample (yes i know some old school r and b i was a producer at one point and have dug though crates" sets a amazing mood to a deep and personal lyric assault brought up by doughboy. He brings a gritty style to a huge metaphorical song that sounds like a break up song witch by listing to te lyrics and watching the video it sounds like a very bad drug withdrawl and his struggle to get off the shit "i'm married to the drugs so im divorcing the hoe." letting you get deep in the mind of one of the hardest things in the world to do, from suicidal thoughts, to feelings of relapse. Jaason ramrez the visionary he is has doeboy spitting by a open pill bottle helping bring this video even deeper. Cant wait for the luncbox release.
