RESPECT. The Collab: AWAR – “Bricks Like ’86” (feat. Styles P & Jadakiss)

AWAR is part of a tight knit faction committed to leading New York Hip-Hop back to dominance. If you’re not familiar with his name, just know he has rapped with the best of them — including Roc Marciano, Evidence, and Freddie Gibbs — and has more than held his own.

Today, AWAR delivers the lead single from his upcoming album, “Spoils of War.” The track is titled, “Bricks Like ’86” produced by Vanderslice and featuring 2/3 of The Lox’s Styles P. and Jadakiss. The single is now available for streaming on all platforms, and is also available on a coke white 7″ featuring a non-album cut titled, “The 87 Getback” on the B-Side, that is also produced by Vanderslice. It should be obvious from the titles, these companion tracks are a throwback to the Coke era, when the rise of crack first made millionaires out of street hustlers.

AWAR’s album, “Spoils of War” is scheduled to arrive October 26, 2018. Stream below.

Millyz got BARZ!

That’s really the best way to put it. In case you aren’t familiar with the spitter yet, you might want to become knowledgeable about the promising Cambridge, MA native. Millyz has been treading his own path, building a solid fan base within the New England district and clearly beyond. Having already been featured on Funk Flex’s show, where we heard him flow the first time, as well as Statik Selektah’s show on Shade 45, Millyz continues to further his name and brand.

A strong affiliate of the legendary LOX collective, he has collaborated with the likes of Jadakiss and recently, he unveiled his brand new cut titled “Young Tommy.” Inspired by Joseph Sikora’s character on the hit Starz program “Power,” the track finds Millyz trading bars Styles P of The LOX.

Check out his latest offering at the top of the post and feel free to drop us your thoughts in the comments section.

New Video: The LOX – “Summer Too Hot” (prod. Scram Jones)

The LOX is back. Rapping over an instrumental that samples a Kanye line from “New God Flow” and some dialogue from Spike Lee‘s Do the Right Thing, Yonkers’ veteran spitters easily remind us how they earned their status as some of hip-hop’s most respected emcees.They also reference The Hangover. Watch below. This is definitely one of the more engaging samples that we’ve heard in awhile. Props to Scram Jones.

Note: Jadakiss‘ laugh will never get old.
