Bryant Dope & Hannibal King - New New York (Mixtape)

First of all, let me say that if you have been keeping up with my monthly mixes, you'll recognize the dope, jazzy joint "QB" from my Feb. mix. Secondly, if you aren't familiar with Hannibal King, he may be one of my favorite producers ever right now. I've toyed with the idea of recording a mixtape using only his beats, myself. This dude is dope with is. Thirdly, Bryant Dope, while I know nothing about him, is really dope too. So you really can't go wrong with this tape. So listen to it now.

Kannon Presents - Best Songs of April 2013

Last month I found myself having to make a bunch of last minute cuts to get this list down to 20 songs... This month I found myself struggling to come up with 20. I dont know if music was just shitty this month, or if I was just stubborn this month. However! April did bring some dope music too. We saw Tyler The Creator release his sophomore album, and it didn't suck. Miguel grabbed Kendrick Lamar for a dope remix. Krayzie Bone, Zion I and Sid Sriram all released cool new EPs. Jay-Z made life difficult for the president for about a week. Hieroglyphics members Pep Love and Opio joined forces under the name First Light. Common stopped rapping with Big Sean and actually put out some classic sounding Common material. Joey Bada$$ rapped on the same track with Raekwon and Black Thought. Big K.R.I.T. released an incredible new mixtape. James Blake finally put out his sophomore album. And I even threw a little Jazz at the end... So enjoy the sounds of April with me.
