It’s been a while since we posted some new Devonwho stuff, but since he’s releasing his “Strangebrew” EP on All City next month, we thought we’d keep you in the know. My homeboy B. Bravo keeps murdering shit every single time with his distinct Cali sound and again his remix is crack-a-lackin’. Devon’s 12″ is already available for pre-order at Rush Hour or wait a bit longer for it to hit your local record shop.

It’s time for L.A. Series # 4 already. This time consisting out of L.A.’s (by way of Detroit) House Shoes and Jordan Rockswell (formerly known as Snowman). Heavy Hip Hop beats is what we were expecting from Michael and it is exactly that what’s on this 10″. Luckily House Shoes relocated to Los Angeles in 2006, because otherwise he hadn’t been on this release. My favorite of his two joints on this one is “Newports”.
On the flipside we have Jordan Rockswell (also a Detroit native) who released “Street Corner Music” with Allcity a few years ago under the name Snowman. His dopest track on this 10″ is “The Groove”, so though we’d stream it low quality. If you think this record has to be a part of your collection…show some support and BUY the 10″ at Rush Hour.

When I first heard Onra‘s Funk-inspired 12″ on Allcity Records I thought whut?! But now that I’ve heard the entire album, I’m like ‘oh that’s what’s up’. It all comes together on the album and once again OlivierDaySoul blows my mind on “My Mind Is Gone”. This guy is the future and we’ll be hearing more in the near future I hope. On “The One” T3 from Slum Village drops some funky rhymes and Walter Mecca (France) does it “To The Beat”. Really nice to hear more producers getting influenced by that eighties boogie funk. Get ready to spend some money, because this is a must BUY!

Onra just dropped a brand new double A sided 12″ on Allcity Records. Nev was going nuts about the “High Hopes” remake featuring Reggie B, but seeing the original is a classic I chose to stream another joint. The entire release seems to be a homage to the eighties Boogie/Funk genre, but with a Hip Hop twist. The album drops in April and has the same name as the 12″. Let us know what you think of this funky release and don’t forget to BUY it if you like what you hear.
