NEW Team / NEW Too Short / Lay Low

The Team - Good Girl
Off the upcoming album, World Premiere, this isn't hyphy, but its a perfect example of The Team's ability to create hit songs. Its a very feminine song, ambient female r&b vocals join at the seams with twinkling piano over a slow 808 bass beat. Kinda cheezy, but cute.

Too Short - She Know What it Is
Unreleased, from his upcoming album. Nothing exceptional here, typical Short Dog vocals. Some other rappers on here that I can't ID. The beat has an old school feel to it, very clean kicks and handclaps, cowbells everywhere. It does have some hyphy sounding synths, but the beat is too slow to be hyphy. Putting this up for posterity more than anything, really.

Lay Low (feat. Federation) - What the Fuck?
This is the fucking slump of the week right here. Law Low is some up'n'coming 16 year old emcee from Vallejo, this song is from his album Deep Waters, which is out but nearly impossible to find. Regardless, this is a fucking BLAP. Federation spit hella hard, stealing the limelight. The beat is insane, a staircase of synths create pure energy.

Sorry for the downtime in posts, I got a bunch more shit to throw up on here so keep checkin back!

'thats my word' isnt really keaks "new album". its mostly a bunch of stuff from the dopegame recording sessions that was leftover. thats why theres a few tracks on there that were already released. its not that bad, the dopegame stuff is pretty cool IMO, with good production. however, i personally wouldnt pay full cd price for it, but also im truly broke. keak's 'real' upcoming album is called kunta kinte and should be coming out before the end of the year.

yea, actually looks like kunta kinte got pushed back to first quarter 2006, so, mixtapes aside, 'thats my word' is gonna be the newest keak stuff out for a minute.
