I’ve seen the name Skeem Price pop up on several projects like Trek Life’s Everything Changed Nothing, Richard Wright’s #ramdommixtape 4.0, and then on some Black Cloud projects. He’s dealing with some good people, so I had to keep an eye out for this cat. I ran into Skeem Price at the Little Temple Bar, and he mentioned his mixtape was getting ready hit and to keep an eye out for it. I don’t have much to say about Skeem Price’s Hazard Mixtape except GET IT! If this is a glimpse into what’s to come, you need to put Skeem Price high on your list. Gats & Pounds featuring Richard Wright is a banger, and that beat J. Bizness got on Star Struck… ridiculous. I won’t steer you wrong with this one. Download Skeem Price – Hazard Mixtape on Band Camp. BIG thanks to Skeem Price for the heads up. Big shout to DJ Buddy cutting it up & the host Chuck Dizzle.

Skeem Price – Treez Up feat Paradice & PL (prod. by G-Rocka)

I am here to tell you, this Richard Wright is that next cat. I’m not going to tell you what I know about Mary Jane, but you don’t have to be with MJ to know this is dope.  This joint was first featured on Richard Wright’s #Randommixtape1.0 and now has dropped a digital 12” and video. It comes with an A Capella version, but I can’t see how you would make this joint better. Bombay kills this track and director Alex G hits the visuals. Download Richard Wright – Marry Mary Jane on Band Camp. I do have to give a BIG thanks to my man Trek Life for introducing me to Richard’s music. Click here for the Vimeo link.

Normally I’m not telling you who you should keep a close ear to, but this is the one time I am. From this point on you should have Belvi & Richard Wright Players & Peacoats on heavy rotation. Before you know it you’ll be saying, “I leave’em froze dog. I’m just to cold dog.” Trust me, I caught myself saying it when it’s not even needed. Cold, Vann Clayton’s a bad man on that beat. 2 Playa 4 U ain’t no joke either. Kuest 1 took a sunny afternoon, put a beat on it, then Belvi & Richard turned it gansta with the lyrics. Made me want to be that bad dude knocking on some chicks door. I want you to listen to Players & Peacoats, so I’m just going to say… What? Def Sound on this too?!? Just download it. Download Players & Peacoats on Richard or Belvi’s Band Camp site. BIG thanks Belvi and Richard Wright for making quality music. Can’t wait to see what else this creative duo’s got going. And catch a live show if you can.

Belvi & Richard Wright – Too Cools ( prod. by Medi)

This little collabo joint hit the twitternet to spice up your favorite DJ’s set list for tonight. In fact, it’s so good, and I don’t want it to be slept on, that I’m now hitting the real talk button.  ** If you’re not up on Richard Wright, Belvi, Captain & J Bizness and you reside in the 909, 951, 626, 714, 949, 562, 323, 310, 213, 818 (including the overlay area codes that I just don’t know off the top of my head) – how strong is your iTunes collection really? Step your playlist game up!**

Give Creepers a few spins and save Thriller for the next man. Your ears will thank you, in French.

Richard Wright feat Belvi & Captain – Creepers

I was checking the updates on my man Trek Life’s site, and ran across the name Richard Wright.  I recalled the name from checking Brick To Ya Face, Curtiss King’s BIG Drums Come Knockin mixtape, and Trek Life & J Bizness Rhymes Within Reason.  I had to check out #randommixtape4.0, and if Trek is talking about it…you NEED to check it out.  Richard Wright has dropped 4, yes 4 #randommixtapes, and has appeared on a gang of other tracks.  His sound is infectious and if you haven’t seen this cat in your town performing…you will.  Download Richards Wright – # RandomMixtape4.0 from BandCamp.  BIG thanks Trek for being the dope taste maker you are.  And I’ll be looking for that next Trek Life project to drop.

Richard Wright – Ignant Shit

Trek Life is a man on a mission.  Touring Europe, doing shows on both coasts, dropping projects in between, and still making time to drop in at an in-store.  Recently Trek teamed up with J. Bizness to bring you Rhymes Within Reason.  This 10 track EP is produced by J. Bizness and with Trek on the mic, you can’t go wrong.  There’s a handfull of special guest appearances by Oddisee, Ragen Fykes, and DJ Buddy making Rhymes Within Reason ON FIRE!  Rhymes Within Reason is one of 3 projects that Trek is dropping this year, so keep your eyes & ears open!  Also keep them open for my man J. Bizness as he’s always cranking out beats.  You can’t sleep on that cat.   Best way is to follow J. Bizness is on twitter to get a play by play.  Download Trek Life & J. Bizness – Rhymes Within Reason on BandCamp.  BIG thanks Trek for the heads up & J. Bizness for rep’n the I.E.!
