Shoutout to the righteous brother Joseph Parker for the alley-oop on this one. I love that stuff like this is out there getting made. I’m absolutely on the hunt for more stuff from this guy, so when I get it, you’ll get it. Stay tuned.
Ol’ Dirty Snorlax (Brooklyn Zoo Instrumental) x Oscar O’Malley
Billy Butcher x Oscar O’Malley
A lot of soul singers have good voices, but voices that wouldn’t stand out in your average church choir and since the apparent demise of R&B groups, you also have a lot of voices that could stand to be thrown into a group situation because they lack anything that would make them stand out. Alice [...]
![[New] Green Card x Ikey](http://i0.wp.com/front-free.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/1b41b069c2e45824ebbe32acce7ed658.jpg?fit=,)
This is one of those rare gems that occur when a blogger delves into his backlog of e-mails and takes a gamble on a submission from an aspiring MC. The few good ones always make up for the tons of sub-par joints you have to subject yourself to. This joint “Green Card” features Ikey rhyming [...]

Usually when I do a “Get Familiar” post, it’s about a brand new artist on the come-up. I’ve decided to do it differently today for a very different MC in hopes that more people being aware of his talent might inspire him to put out a more consistent product. Queens, New York MC Alec Reinstein, [...]
![Get Familiar: NY Nostalgia [Visuals] x CeeZo](http://i0.wp.com/front-free.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/5a4375792590856dbcd2d459340dcd30.png?fit=150,150)
New York hip-hop definitely made noise in 2011 and 2012 with serious output from the likes of Action Bronson, Maffew Ragazino, Troy Ave, Meyhem Lauren, and plenty others, but get ready to add my man CeeZo to that list. “NY Nostalgia” brings the kind of flavor that even a California hip-hop head such as myself [...]
![[Video] Gusto x Isaiah Rashad f. Brian Cameron](http://i0.wp.com/front-free.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/70ae5067ebafac13e70a7bcbf16bfc68.jpg?fit=150,150)
New music from my guy Isaiah Rashad and his homie Brian Cameron. When I first heard Isaiah Rashad, I was impressed with his honesty and unique approach to flow and song-writing. It seems like he is putting the same energy into some new material. Check him out.
This track represents week one of what York calls “Shoot Around Sessions”, which is him releasing a joint each week until February. Keep up with it each week at Shootaround Sessions. Check it out.
I stumbled across this mixtape on Twitter and was pleasantly surprised. My guy Dom Mahoney (@DomMahoney aka Faceman or “The Face” although he says “nobody gets the A-Team reference”) and his younger brother Keys (@DoughboyyFreshh) came together to lay down the TMETape, which can be heard below. It’s always dope to hear something that started [...]
Singer/songwriter Whitney White is from West Palm Beach and after years away from performing live to focus on writing for others, she has returned with W, an inspired collection of R&B driven by strong vocals and smooth production that compliments and doesn’t overpower. Whitney’s subtle approach is definitely something missing from the pop-heavy R&B [...]
Get familiar with the dude Allen York (@AllenYork) and this mellow joint, “Six Line Fine” off his new album One Ear At A Time, which just dropped on the 30th. Go cop that on iTunes. Shoutout to Homeless-Millionaire.com.
