    Death Grips is the freshest thing I've heard in a while.
    Word. The Money Store is the dopest of the dope. I can't stop listening.

    The good/bad news is that I was really stoked to see them live at the end of June but they cancelled their US tour to start work on a new cd.

    Hilltop Hoods just raised the bar for the entire Australian hip-hop scene.

    SpaceGhostPurrp is what happens when G-Funk and Animal Collective have a baby and rear it on a diet of purple drank and blotter acid.

    Wowie, this kid has got something good going.

    Some pretty good new Hip-hop from my city.

    If the words "progressive hip-hop" mean anything good to you, go find Aesop Rock's new album Skelethon right now and listen to it.

    Saw Danny Brown, A$AP Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, and Schoolboy Q at Pitchfork. If you're not listening to this shit, fix that.

    Not that interested in A$AP, dunno Kendrick Lamar, but fuck you I'm jealous. Schoolboy Q I definitely wouldn't mind seeing and I really want to see Danny Brown.

    Danny Brown was fucking nuts. 600 people shouting "FUCK A P.O. FUCK A PISS TEST" at the top of their lungs in a giant pulsating mosh, smelling like a growhouse, and Danny on stage doing his high-pitched rap thing while striking poses and going nuts. It was so, so good.

    Schoolboy Q was hilarious. Kept cracking jokes and doing all his own hype work between songs. At one point he got hot and took his shirt off, and then went, "Shout out to Frank Ocean, nawmean?" The crowd went fucking nuts. He was trying to get the mostly-white crowd to chant the chorus to "Blessed," but everyone was uncomfortable with the obvious racial terminology in the chorus. He stopped the song, talked about how everyone at a Schoolboy Q show can say "nigga" due to the nature of hip-hop shows, and then demanded audience participation. We brought that shit down accordingly.

    And don't even get me started on how crazy FlyLo was. I wish I had that set on tape; he dropped Pharaohe Monch's "Simon Says" just because he wanted to. I was in front of a group of seven people who were rolling the hardest I've ever seen people rolling, and I thought someone was going to die. It was so cool.

    Check out Snowgoons Dynasty by Snowgoons. It's like AOTP but bigger and badder.

    Deltron did some of the new tracks at a festival in Toronto. The recordings are shoddy, but sound in-line with the earlier stuff. Album confirmed for November.

    Dude, SO glad you're on that Capt. Murphy tip. FlyLo really went absolutely ape on that tape; it might be my favorite hip-hop drop of 2012.
