Open Mike Eagle - "Degrassi Picture Day"

Open Mike Eagle looking snazzy in this session video over at Kinda Neat. With school picture day as a thematic backdrop, Mike drops some pretty clever, hilarious lines that are delivered this a flow that grows more passionate as the song progresses. I've gotta say his singing is shaping up a bit, too. Enjoy!

"Manchester" w/milo, Busdriver, Nocando (prod. Super)

Nocando, Busdriver, and milo are still repping Hellfyer, hopping on a track that looks like it'll be appearing on a compilation formed by the alternative hip hop label in November. It's not a bad cut either, and kicks off with milo spitting with a flow that reminds me of something out of a Kimya Dawson song, oddly enough. Nocando's familial bars are some of the most personal I've heard from him, and the Busdriver hook is, uh, well, tolerable. Enjoy!

Milo- I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here

Art rapper Milo recently dropped this set of track titled "I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here," which is hilariously titled after the first Del the Funky Homosapien album.

I know now that Das Racist is huge, comedic and "post-modern" raps are all the rage, and Milo definitely has that. But there are lots of odd, personal observations and experiences laced into his rhymes, which makes him really relatable.

I haven't heard the whole thing yet, but here's my favorite line so far: "I went to school to become a philosopher, but dropped out to be a sober Kid Cudi imposter."

The dude's got a lotta personality, great beat choices, interesting lyrics, and a bright future, I hope. Stream I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here above and download it at Bandcamp.
