Tall Black Guy Feat. Simeon Viltz & Shev Rock - Dance Forever

I have already posted this song (mind you over a year ago) but considering it is now available to purchase with addition of another track, I thought it only fitting to post it again!!

Rashad & Confidence - The Element Of Surprise

This is just one of those things where the unknown takes you completely by surprise, fitting enough considering the album title itself. Yea, ok. You got my attention.

"Rashad & Confidence, two longtime students of the game, finally drop their long-awaited debut album "The Element of Surprise". This up-and-coming MC/producer duo, hailing from Brooklyn and Philly, merged to create a record with a timeless sound reminiscent of hip-hop's golden era but with a fresh, updated feel."
