Review: New York's Gregg Green teams up with Pimpernel Jones (Herma Puma) to deliver a release that operates around the more soulful, thought-provoking end of hip-hop. The title track 'Hypocrite' delivers a powerful message, calling out the hypocrisy of those in power while showcasing Green's signature emotive vocals. The track is set against a smooth yet compelling backdrop, with Jones' production adding depth and warmth. On the B-side, 'You'll See' offers a cautionary tale, urging listeners to stay true to their values as they navigate the pursuit of dreams. It's a track filled with subtle wisdom, offering both an uplifting and introspective vibe. This release exemplifies the duo's ability to create soulful, engaging music with both heart and purpose.

Review: Cheeba Cheeba Records is back with another superb instrumental compilation. The 10th volume of the Bake Sale series features exclusive jams from plenty of accomplished beatmakers and the album even includes part one of an ongoing original comic book series from illustrator supreme Dan Lish. Plenty of different hip hop sub-sounds are explored, from the soulful and lo-fi MPC jam of DJ Nio's 'Es Campur' to the bliss doit smoking soundtrack that is Kuja's 'Stoned Days' (Featuring Bugseed) and Chilla Ninja's low slung boom-bap delight 'I Revolve Around Science.' A superb addition to the shelves for anyone who likes their beats soulful and perfectly undercooked.
