Captain Murphy - "Crowned"

Praying there'll be another full-length Captain Murphy project in the near future...

Jonwayne - Cassette 3: The Marion Morrison Mixtape

Rapper and producer Jonwayne has a new mixtape available through Stones Throw Records. Cassette 3 is a delightfully whacky and eclectic affair, beginning with the soulful and jazzy "Ode to Mortality" and going on to co-opt the clunky, jarring instrumental from Pusha T's "Numbers On the Boards" on the following track.

The tape also features verses from fellow Brainfeeder affiliates Jeremiah Jae, Zeroh, Oliver the 2nd, and even Flying Lotus himself (under his Captain Murphy moniker.) Enjoy!

Download: Captain Murphy- Duality (Instrumentals) Here's the instrumental version of Captain Murphy's Duality, which is the abstract hip hop project that had the Internet's attention for a good couple of days as people did their best to guess Murphy's real identity. Check a review of Duality here.

As some had correctly guessed, Captain Murphy might, in fact, be Flying Lotus according to some Instagram photos of a Murphy performance that went up a few hours ago.

This still leaves the question of who some of the other rappers on this tape are, because it's obvious--even after a single listen--that there are numerous voices on Duality, not just one. Maybe more of those involved with this project will be revealed in the near future.

Captain Murphy- Duality

Captain Murphy's debut project is pretty impressive, and boats some of the best hip hop production you'll hear this year. The most glaring issue that faces this project into the future: Lyrics.
