FREE Amadeus the Stampede Disc Download
Posted on July 31, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Boston, Boston Hip-Hop, Free Download | Leave a Comment
Amadeus is one of those cats who releases more mixtapes and albums that I can keep up with. In the past year alone he dropped like three discs – including a group project with Zombie Death Squad – and he tells me that he has like three more in the can. If you don’t know [...]
New Gangrene (Alchemist + Oh No) Single + Track List
Posted on July 31, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Hip Hop | Leave a Comment
I’m loving this shit. The sound, the texture, the sheer bravado. Album should be dope. Pretty sure I saw these two together at SXSW but was too drunk to write down a single sentence in my notebook. Good times.
LISTEN: Gangrene (Alchemist + Oh No) – Chain Swinging
Gutter Water Track List Below. Album Drops on 10/12/2010

New Joint from RADIx (Upcoming Disc Produced Entirely by Statik Selektah)
Posted on July 22, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Boston, Boston Hip-Hop | 1 Comment
RADIx has always been one of my favorite groups out of New England. There aren’t nearly enough duos in this age of excessive narcissism, and Seek and Quite Nyce bring the sort of dynamic ping pong rhymes that cats are just too lazy to write anymore. This preview joint is over an old Defari beat, [...]

Dam Funk x MC Eiht – Hood Pass Intact
Posted on July 20, 2010 by Martín Caballero - Filed Under Audio | Leave a Comment
Dam Funk’s appearance at Great Scott in Allston on a cold ass night in March was one of the best shows to come through the Bean thus far this year (shouts to @PBR_Boston). He’ll be back on the scene with a 12″ EP this summer via Stones Throw, of which this song, featuring the original [...]
El Gant featuring Bekay & DeeJay Element – “You Ain’t This”
Posted on July 18, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Hip Hop | Leave a Comment
Glad to see that El Gant is still ripping. Dude is one of the few dope freestyle MCs who can write a great song – in fact his 2001 joint It’s Over is one of my favorite albums of the era (which is a big statement). Pretty sure he came out of the SUNY-Albany scene, [...]
DJ Muggs vs. ILL Bill = “Kill Devil Hills”
Posted on July 14, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Hip Hop | 4 Comments
I would love to say this is a worldwide exclusive, but by the time you’re reading this on JumpTheTurnStyle the inner throes of hip-hop’s blogosphere will already be slobbering over what is sure to be one of the most conspiratorially addled and memorably frightening rap noir oeuvres of all-time, not to mention one of the [...]
One Chick You Should Not Front On Disc Review | Eternia & Moss – “At Last”
Posted on July 10, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Hip Hop, Video | 5 Comments
At Last should finally cast the long-dominant Eternia into the undisputed top spot on the female MC food chain. But the Toronto-bred MC’s sex appeal is secondary. What’s the real hook? This disc is for hardcore Canadian hip-hop what pre-hardcore Tiger Woods was for black golfers. Nerdy rhyme aficionados were already [...]

Super Chron Flight Brothers With Another Super Album
Posted on July 5, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Hip Hop | Leave a Comment
You can’t just commandeer a Super Chron hovercraft and expect to understand New York’s Flight Brothers. So I’ll guide you through their latest inspired conceptual labyrinth, Cape Verde. The first thing you must do is clear the area of rap pedestrians who might interrupt. As annoying as it is when chumps [...]
Fameless Fam: Making Moves Outside of Boston’s Crab Bucket (Profile + Audio)
Posted on July 2, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Boston, Boston Hip-Hop | 2 Comments
Halfway through my interview with the Allston-based alt-hop collective Fameless Fam about their upcoming showcase at Wonder Bar this Tuesday, Will from the posse’s glitch-minded duo Time Crisis mentions that he went to high school in Pittsburgh with rising rap sensation Wiz Khalifa. Will isn’t boasting or blasting his former classmate [...]
Slaine Studio Hops Around Boston. Fire Ensues.
Posted on June 30, 2010 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Audio, Boston, Boston Hip-Hop, Hip Hop | 1 Comment
If you missed Slaine’s Boston Project show at the Middle East two weeks ago, then you missed some dope shit my friend. The Hub’s top gunners were in tow, and cats including Wispers, M-Dot, Jaysaun, and Dre Robinson smashed for a good five hours straight – without a single shithead fan or jealous MC stepping [...]
