“I Love A Girl” is the latest single released from D-Sisive’s acclaimed experimental album titled Vaudeville. The album was released by URBNET, the label that D is signed to, which is also home to many of Canada’s hip-hop elite.

For everyone from the pimple-faced teenagers (18 and up of course) to the middle-aged match.com users, here’s some visuals to put in rotation with Barry White and Marvin Gaye. Why be subtle when you can get down to business. The Physics (Thig Natural, Just D’Amato & Monk Wordsmith) teamed up with Mario Sweet to tell your girl, or even that other dudes girl, what the deal is. Jon Augustavo (J.Pinder’s “Three Words”) graced the video with his usual crisp imagery. Be sure to catch The Physics on at Bumbershoot on Sunday. Now to quote the legendary Marvin Gaye, “Let’s get it on”.
With appearances from Macklemore, J.Pinder and Wizdom.

The latest mixtape offering from Gangsta Gibbs is now available DJ-free (however it does not include any of the tracks that feature on the “Str8 Killa EP”), if you haven’t checked out Freddie yet then download this and have a listen, the way he skilfully strings his words together is like a complex musical solo, and the harsh melancholic tales of ghetto living really evoke emotion. This is just gangsta rap, however its all of the best bits of gangsta rap all performed excellently.

This project sees Buff1 rap over alternative tracks that inspire him. Interestingly all of the tracks remain unedited and have not been sampled or cut-up; Buff1 simply raps where there is space for him. The title is inspired by Ghostface, who’s track “Holla” sees him rap over the Delphonics track “La-la Means I Love You”, as well as the children’s game in which one must follow another undetected whilst mimicking them as closely as possible.
Inspired by tracks from Portishead, The Beatles, Hudson Mowhawke and more…
