NEW MUSIC:Fiend International Jones "Smokin Champagne"

After much anticipation and twitter damn near blowing up, Fiend released  his 5th mixtape this year. Entitled "Smokin' Champagne"  If you've been following Jones on his travels you've experienced some amazing music. Conceptually this tape is similar to past tapes. Pure Jazz and Elegance.  Hosted by Don Cannon, who is exceptional in his own right.. This is a great combo.  Fiend takes you on a mental European Tour. Remaining true to the Street sound though, its like a perfect marriage.  Comparable to A lady in the Streets and A Freak in the Streets..   I get this feeling of Ships, Flights, and Smokin the Best of the Best..   Join Fiend on his travels... See the World! You won't regret it.


Favorite Tracks: "Keep The Lights On" Ft.Backbone
                                                                                                              "Buzzin" Ft. Nesby Phips
                                                                                                               "Florence, Italy"

Local Heat: Underground Chicago Hip-Hop "DRE"


Dre has been grinding so hard this year!! Constantly promoting on twitter and recording non-stop! An artist by nature this guy is well rounded and his talents are endless.  His "All-In, Overdue" tape released in July did very well with Downloads and Plays. I've been following this guys music for a while and though I love his sound, All In is completely different from the Dre I was introduced to a year or so ago. I'm excited to hear his new Mixtape "Dreams May Come: The Prequel" Dropping in November.
Check Out Dre and Download his latest tape "All In, Overdue" on ReTwedia also Follow Dre on Twitter @dre_GBM For ALL Things Dre Check Out his Website

Ok Hip Hop heads!! Here's who I've been listening to lately... Check out this Chicago Artist! Bringing that REAL!!!

Duke 
 
I was sleeping on this cat, He submitted music to The Beat and when I finally listened I was pleasantly surprised   Duke has a natural sound.  Lyrics just flow.. Bringing that real, his material is mostly focused on his grind. Be sure to cop his mixtape "Growing Pains" due for release in December. Check Out Duke on Sound Cloud and Follow him on twitter @Chicago_Duke for updates and show dates.

Spitta Live from "New Jet City" VerdeTerrace hosted by DJ Drama



















Wassup JetLifers??? As you all know Curren$y relased his heavily antcipated mixtape Verde Terrace hosted by DJ Drama "Gangsta Grillz" 
 
Spitta brings a different vibe with this one... Still keepin it JetLife of course but a little more up-tempo.  Reminding his fans of the JetLife
Commandments with tracks like "Job" and  "Jet Business" and letting his friends shine on Tracks like "Hennesy Beach" ft. Dom Kennedy and "Crack BC" ft Young Roddy (Roddy killed that track by the way)
 
On this tape I feel a vibe of Boss Hood, Spitta is very relaxed (as usual).  The BEAT selection is impeccable and Drama keeps his tags minimal (Thankfully) he didn't over Gangsta Spitta shit :)
 
 
On Verde, Curren$y spitts over a mixture of original productions and tries his hand at other artist's instrumentals. OutKast's "Elevators" was used for  "Smoke Sum'n," and Jay-Z's "Stick 2 the Script" morphed into "Ways to Kill Em."

Sup Hip Hop Heads, B-Boys, B-Girls.... Rap Enthuisasts and Bad Bitches ! :) I got someone new I'd like to introduce yall to!

So I went to the Mad Decent Block Club Party on Milwaukee and Western to see Spitta.  It was an Awesome show! Spitta held it down for #ChicagoJetLife as usual! Afterwards I'm in Mickey D's to grab a liter lol and this PuertoRican guy with a sign around his neck is in there promoting himself...  I gladly gave him 5 bux for a CD and asked if I could here somethin... This dude Spitt an entire song right in front of me.
His Peers and Fans has named him
 "The Hottest Puertorican rapper in The Chi",
and he definetly lives up to the Title. His music is not the typical Latino HipHop, still high energy but street with it.  Keepin it straight hood, clever and well written.

Man Of The Hour: New Music from Fiend Intl. Jones "Cool Is In Session"


                                                                                                                                                                                 

Fiend "International Jones" has finally released his newest project "Cool Is In Session." 

Following his exceptional Life Behind Limo Glass Mixtape Fiend returns with Cool Is In Session.  This tape showcases his smooth sound.. That pure N.O style. He integrates Jazz, Blues and R&B with heavy base lines and Dope Lyrics.  Fiend's sound is fresh and his lyrics are REAL.  Speaking of mostly two things Pretty women and Good Weed, but don't get me wrong his lyrics are not empty... He's eloquent. There's a level of class that is untouchable. 


Conceptually giving you a lesson in COOL. A instruction manual if you will.. with commentary on how to live that JetLife/IronGang Life...

The tape features other members of the JetLife family of course Smoke DZA and CornerBoy P on two of my favorite tracks "Take A Pull" and "We Get High"  Mr. Jones has had his fans on edge waiting for this release, tweeting constantly and releasing tracks at his leisure.  This is why I fux with the JetLife. Still keeping it grassroots Fiend responds to the luv sent to him on twitter never too busy to RT a shoutout from a follower (especially the pretty ones) :) I mean he is  an International Man of Mystery. 


If you looking for some shit too groove too, smoke too chill too, go and Download Cool Is In Session here  #COOLISINSESSION  Also follow Fiend on twitter @FIEND4DAMONEY

"Grown Man Flow" Fiend International Jones

The "Barry White of Hip Hop" that's what I'm calling this guy. I learned of him through JetsFool.Blogspot.com I've had his mixtape "Sweetest Hangover"  on repeat for about 3days... This is some real sexy HipHop right here.  If you tryna make your girl swoon, throw on some Fiend and you in there! His deep baritone voice puts you in the mood of some silk soul over dope beats... Definetly some of that smooth HipHop... Get you a bottle of whatever you're in to and spark you a doob... lay back and let Fiend take you to that special place! Enjoy!

Here are a couple of my favorite tracks off the "Sweetest Hangover"
