The Vigil is a newly released mixtape from Long Island’s own, Kemizt. The 20 year old emcee displays an unmeasurable potential in every bar. Skillfully delivered lyrics are laid over compositions by great producers such as J Dilla & Nujabes (RIP), Kev Brown, Statik Selektah, Flying Lotus, etc. The most impressive matter is the wide range of creativity shown from song to song, each one vastly varying from the next. Concepts incorporate everything from relationships to personal struggles to the general consensus of the state of the game.

The video for Awol One & Ecid’s Staring Death In The Bulls Eye may have you trying to adjust your screen but once you get your eyes to catch up with it it’s worth a look/listen.
Their album Awol One & Ecid Are… dropped in January, with Access Hip Hop having this to say about it:
While touring the Midwest years ago Awol One and Minneapolis MC/Producer and Fill In The Breaks label owner Ecid began building the foundation for a classic collaboration. Two years and many L.A./ Minneapolis flights later they have constructed a cohesive album built on Ecid’s trademark production and balanced by Awol and Ecid’s knack for witty sarcasm and melodic hooks. Unlike so many forced and ill planned collaborations before them, this new duo had no intentions of just running through the motions, they wanted to make an unapologetic, raw and focused record. Hard beats, dark atmosphere…the kind of stuff I like to hear Awol One rhymin’ on! Featuring guest appearances by Gel Roc, Sector7G, Capaciti, and Jordan Miche!

The Bay Area is back with more bass, beats and bravado for your speakers, this time in the form of Moe Green. The young emcee hails from Vallejo, CA, home to Left Coast legends E-40 and Mac Dre, and is on his way to building a hip-hop legacy of his own. The first offering from the future star is a video for “Non Title Match”, the Martin produced track from Moe’s upcoming Rocky Maivia project. Directed by Drip Digital, the video finds Moe getting his chill on to a session of Super Nintendo-assisted wrestling, while also finding time to flip rhymes and announce his arrival in the hip-hop ring.
