Loco - The Hello EP (Free Download)

"The Hello E.P" does exactly what it says on the tin...'5 free pant-sh*tting grime instrumentals' just about sums this release up.

After much behind-the-grime-scene work alongside the likes of UK heavyweights Ghetts, Frisco, Ms Dynamite, Mz Bratt and many more, multi-talented producer Loco introduces his unique production style to the scene in the loudest, rudest, grimiest possible fashion...albeit with a few added sprinkles of humour (check out the artwork and the movie samples!)

The E.P. opens with the relentless charge of the title track 'Hello' and the seemingly-neverending industrial roll of 'Growler', then grinds it's way through to the bass-heavy, dustep-infused 'Bigshot' and one that will surely have MC's clamouring to vocal its energetic production - 'Check This Out'. By the time the parting shot - dreamy closing track 'Makes You Wonder' comes around, you may feel you do not want to part ways just yet. Indeed, this is an introduction that will be difficult to forget.

S.A.S (Eurogang) - Complete / Shout

This is the new single taken from S.A.S highly anticipated album Galaxy Fly. Please post this to your Blog or Website.

Having released their mixtape Mega & Mayhems Excellent Adventure in May 2010, Rap duo Mega (Sean)
and Mayhem (Melvin) Williams are set to release their Street Album “Galaxy Fly” in August 2010.





The SAS (Streets All Salute) duo have gone from battle rapping in Staten Island (NY) in their early years to
collaborating on tunes with Young Money’s Nikki Minaj, The Diplomats Cam’ron and Jules Santana in the years that followed.

After solidifying reputations in the US as Global superstars the British Hip-Hop movement toured around Europe
and Canada with video’s popping all over MTV channels around the world providing cameos in movies such as State Property 2.

With endorsements from Lyle and Scott, Futura Laboratories, Maharishi and Yoropikomym keeping them comfy
and having opened for Kanye West’s first UK concert they’d created enough heat by themselves and
realising their relationship with The Diplomats was at a standstill the brothers regrouped
as Eurogang and released Eurogang volume 1, 2 and 3.


Now residing in North London the two have learnt from their journey, which led to their deal with
The Diplomats and Roc-A-Fella being cast to the side, and are back to re introduce themselves with
more good music to showcasing the lyrical talent they have to the amazing network of fans
they have built up throughout their career.

Kings Of The City - I Try

The band are already attracting attention with their unique sound, gaining the support of UK rap legend Klashnekoff,
who describes them as 'a refreshing mix of raw bars, guitars, and hearts of kings! Definitely ones to watch!'.
Klashnekoff also features on the bands follow up single, out later this year.

Their debut single 'I Try' also features remixes by DJ Mutiny, Dr Colossus, Bug, Inkling and an exclusive bonus track Bow Down

Stylah wins Mr Hudson MC Competition

Mercury recording artist Mr Hudson this afternoon announced on his twitter page that London rap artist Stylah has won the competition

to feature on the UK edition of his new single Anyone But Him. The song, which features Kanye West on the original album version, is due for
release in May with Stylah guest featuring. Stylah will also be joining Mr Hudson on stage to perform the track on his current UK tour.


Whilst currently independent, Stylah has recently been in talks with major labels for his solo material after a long campaign building his name and fanbase through mix CDs, internet virals and live shows. The announcement by Mr Hudson today of this high profile guest appearance
will presumably do these negotiations no harm and the future looks bright for this young rapper.


Footage of Stylah and Mr Hudson recording the record, recent viral clips and 'The Warning' Mixtape
can all be obtained from Stylah's official website www.stylah.tv

F-Tizzle - Turn My World

Milton keynes resident artist F-T aka F-tizzle makes his return to the music scene with the much anticipated single 'Turn my world'. Whilst most urban acts seem to be going in the pop direction 'turn my world' is the opposite narrating F-T's struggle to break away from street life to pursue a career in music. The song mixes a strong trance synth with a Gritty bassline to create a unique groundbreaking sound topped with his heartfelt story of struggle. The music video to accompany the song was filmed in an abandoned world war 2 bunker and the visual compliments the song's theme perfectly.F-T's unique selling point is the fact that he solely produces all of his material and has aspirations to be a uk super producer/artist like kayne west and Pharrel williams. This release is one not to be missed and at time when most music has become predictable it takes a bold individual to stand up and make a change.

F-T has been credited for working with some of the Uk's biggest urban stars and has released two solo cd's to this date featuring the likes of Rolldeep,Tinchy stryder, macabre unit and asher d to name some.Recent collaborations include Dirty stank artist d double e and Dubstep/reggae artist Badness.

Out 24th May 2010
