Union, also know as the duo OJ & Gold from Paris, have been on our radar for quite some time. With their latest “Analogtronics” album (which is out as of today) they’ve made their way on to our ‘shit these cats is tight’ list. Just loving that warm spacey electronic hip hop that they do so well. Lots of interesting features on this one too from MF Doom, Talib Kweli, Elzhi, Guilty Simpson, Rapper Big Pooh, Moka Only and more. This is gonna be one of those albums you just have to get on Analogtronics - Union or if you’re a vinyl head, I suggest you go for that super fresh looking (pink & teal) 2xLP available at Fatbeats! Oh and make sure you snatch a free download of “Digital Delight” featuring Guilty Simpson and of “Wings” featuring Elzhi as well..

OJ_Simpson

OJ Simpson. That’s the name of the album. No bloody gloves. No Ford Broncos. These are some 12 hard-hitting hip-hop tracks featuring Guilty’s inimitable baritone, and an equal number of Madlib’s signature album-as-soundtrack/radio/sideshow arrangements, where the beat & sequence is as important as the rap. This, with a couple no-nonsense guest appearances, some cuts by J.Rocc, and a whole bunch of attitude, makes up one of our favorite projects in a while.

The charisma that Detroit’s heavy hitting MC Guilty Simpson and the Los Angeles based Beat Konducta Madlib share testifies to a musical kinship that is rare in today’s rapper-as-an-accessory marketplace. Going back to Guilty’s first appearance on wax (Jaylib’s “Strapped”–2003), Guilty over a Madlib beat to us is like hearing Guru over Premier circa Daily Operation, or CL over Pete around the time of “Straighten It Out.” Some times, a rapper and a producer just work well together. Album drops May 18. stonesthrow

ancient-treasure

The second taster from Paul White‘s new album “Paul White & The Purple Brain” is a here and features Detroit’s heavy-hitting MC Guilty Simpson. On “Ancient Treasure” he rips the shit out of this joint and Paul instantly responded with two killer remixes to turn what was supposed to be a bonus 45 cut into a fully-fledged single. Free download of the original version of “Ancient Treasure” at hi-res via Bandcamp or just spend a couple of bucks to get them all. This 12″ will be available as a bonus 3rd disc with the first 500 copies of the “Paul White & The Purple Brain” 2LP. Big ups One-Handed & Stones Throw..
