Since the summer is still in full effect, we from Moovmnt decided to drop some “Cali Love” on that ass. We selected a whole lot of niceness and asked Mr. Speak to mix together this ode to California for us. We played this one on the RBMA Radio show last month and stay tuned for the second hour that was mixed by Exile & DJ Day. Artwork was done by Deluge and please leave some nice comments or show some love. Oh tracklist after the jump..

One third of LA’s hottest musical force that is the Sa-Ra Creative Partners, Shafiq heads out alone on a stunning soul/jazz/afro/hip hop and funk infused LP, carefully created and crafted from intense studio sessions and on-going conversations, between like-minded friends and family.
SHAFIQ EN’ A-FREE-KA has been entirely composed with an armoury of outboard gear effects, synthesizers, electric guitars, strings, horns, a lot of modulation. “Hip-hop mastered the beat, but they didn’t do nothing with the changes,” says Shafiq. On the album Shafiq recruits Bilal, Sa-Ra member Om’mas Keith, emcee Count Bass D, London’s rising songstress Fatima, Sa-Ra vocalist Rozzi Daime, and a whole army of musicians and engineers. AYK

This cat 14KT is blowing up so hard and when he does we’ll be on the sidelines telling ya’ll ‘I told yo ass’. We’ve been a fan since way back and KT keeps on making noise. His upcoming release probably has more flavors than motherf*ckin Now & Later’s so I see why he chose the name “Nowalataz”. This will drop late Monday (8/17) night (basically Tuesday (8/18). Thanks to MichiganHipHop for these cuts and thanks to 14KT for making these crazy ass beats. “The Golden Hour 2x LP on (limited edition vinyl w/full cover artwork) available next month!

Hailing from Smallville, Kansas XVhas a long “To Do List” on this unreleased cut. Obsessed with comic books, action figures, web surfing, and roleplaying video games, Donavan Johnson would classify as a “nerd”. But his love for fashion, colorful sneakers, and porn disqualify him of being such a stereotype. So, the 23-year old lyricist finds himself playing the same role he played in middle school and high school, in the music industry. The nobody begging to become a somebody. Good thing he hooked up with LA’s TiRon, who has worked with talented rappers like Blu and Pacific Division, for this “To Do List” joint. Also check out “Start A War” featuring Colin Munroe on his Myspace..

Hudson Mohawke’s debut album “Butter” will be out October 12th on Warp Records.
“Megawatt R’n’B stars won’t be the only ones to take note of Butter, as the ever-growing global network of bass-craving music fans have been clamouring for new material since his lauded Polyfolk Dance EP earlier this year. On that record, HudMo’s hyper melodic drum-and-synth sidewinders only hinted at the panoramic pop magic that was to come and with it he found himself name checked by the likes of Rihanna, Goldie, Sa Ra, Busy P, Flying Lotus, Mars Volta & Crookers.” warp. picture by Mylou Oord
