Driver ‎– Maintenant Je Suis Chaud (2017)

Posted by ThaIgk

Driver, a French rapper from Sarcelles city, has been in the rap game since quite a long time with a quite a few releases behind his back. This years he’s back with his new EP “Now I’m Hot” (if translated from French) that was released in CD format on his own “Allmade” record label, and it’s the perfect result of the collaborative effort of Driver and Crapulax (the French producer): all the tracks were written, produced and recorded within a week as they both hit the studio and “cooked” all the bangers together.

Apparently it’s one the hottest CD’s out of France this year so far and is very solid work by both the rapper & producer. We strongly recommend to peep it & order a hardcopy @ Addictive Music Online Shop. They are the official distributor of this CD, ship worldwide and their prices/shipping are pretty moderate.

The BREED ‎– Sexbox (August 4th, 2017)

Posted by ThaIgk

It took 11 months for The BREED to release his 2nd album since his dropped his debut “The Beauty and The Breed” on September 4th, 2016. For those who don’t know yet, The BREED is the German beatmaker & talkboxer, and now he’s back with his 2nd release shortly called “Sexbox”. Though we haven’t got a chance to listen to the whole album yet, but based on the first album and new video clips which you can watch below, it’s close to impossible to refuse to peep inside the “Sexbox”.

Once again it was released only in Vinyl format, also limited to 500 copies, but this time it’s Pink vinyl. When you buy vinyl, it comes with A2-sized poster + free download code by default. Order your copy @ VINYL-DIGITAL.COM ONLINE SHOP & your package will be shipped directly from Germany.

And yeah, until this moment we still don’t really know…

Ridaz & Mister C ‎- Ça Tise Mais Ça Taff (2017)

Posted by ThaIgk

Already somewhat known in the underground rap scene featuring on different projects, Mr. Ridaz & Mister C teemed up to work on the the collabo album Ça Tise Mais Ça Taff / We Drink But We Work, which they released independently, without a support of any label or distribution company.

As both of them rapping on the album, Mister C also handled all the production on it. This album literally “features no featurings” at all (they even produced this album by themselves) which is pretty rare in g-funk, especially, nowadays. This is type of g-funk music that you may feel like listening to any time of year and leave you in a careless uplift mood.

Mastered by Hic Box, the sound quality of the whole album is high enough to guarantee ya’ll remain satisfied, especially those who care about it (sound quality).

The album was released in CD format on July 14th, 2017. While the CD’s have been sold predominantly on the streets of France (like back in the days), the hardcopies are available @ Mr.Ridaz Official Site and shipping worldwide.

Posted by ThaIgk

We, at G-Funk.WS, are proud to release the 2nd album by Laidback Black in CD format. Enirely produced by RTN aka Rutran (a producer from Poland), “G-Funk Era 4ever” features well-known guests from USA – Foesum and OG Daddy V along with Laidback’s homies from Poland, nice and smooth talkbox by Nicole Funk, and the combo appearance on title track by El Don & Mista L, who have been working on their album “Visions From The G-Funk Book” which will be released on our label later on. Overall, this album is a more mature effort by Laidback Black and would appeal to any g-funk fan.

“G-Funk Era 4ever” is limited to 300 copies (so it’s a limited edition), but it’s a real press / replication CD at the same time, as you know there are no bullshit CD-R’s from G-Funk.WS!

You can show your luv & support by copping this CD and/or digital album @ G-Funk.WS BANDCAMP.

There’s also a set of 2 Laidback Black’s CD albums available for a good price if you missed it somehow before.

Posted by Logos

It’s really a pleasure to hear new releases from west-coast veterano Kokane, the current king of g-funk (he got all rights to claim that). Though it’s really hard to do smth new, Koka doing it again! Not looking at the extraordinary title, the most featured artist in the world drops album with absolutely no features. Except the dope producers list (Cold 187um, Battlecat, Tha Chill, West Coast Stone, Caviar to name a few…), of course. Pure 100% Kokane! Warning! Listening may become addictive! We do recommend to check the Discogs Page for a full tracklist.

7th of July is the release date, the CD is available for preorder at Bud E. Boy Entertainment Official Website , you can save up 3$ on that, later it will be a regular price. Here are the snippets below:

And that’s not all Kokane prepared for the fans!!! Along with BassBuds company he made a stylized bluetooth speakers and earphones merch! Buying a signed copy or regular one, you will get a digital version of the album + exclusive bonus track. Or just buy a t-shirt… It’s up to you! Go check those out on Kokane BassBoomz Website!

 

The last, but not least, the first video from the album:

MC Eiht ‎– Which Way Iz West (June 30th, 2017)

Posted by ThaIgk

It’s really hard to tell it better then Rodney Carmichael did in his write-up on this album (where you can also listen to all the tracks online), we still could not afford to overlook and not highlight it in our news blog. Being it a soooo long awaited album, Which Way Iz West (that we knew for years it was worked on and just pushed back all the time) but now our dreams have proven to come true and we are finally confirmed that MC Eiht finally drops this album, making it his first full-length solo album in a decade. Executively-produced by himself & DJ Premier, this album was predominantly produced by Eiht’s long-time partner, Brenk Sinatra (a producer from Austria with whom they released Keep It Hood EP before) while 3 tracks out of 15 were still produced by DJ Premier. The album features CMW, Kurupt, WC, Lady of Rage, B-Real, Xzibit, MayLAy, Bumpy Knuckles, Big Mike, The Outlawz & DJ Premier himself.

This album is released in both CD (pre-orders are open) & Vinyl (will be announced soon) formats  and available for ordering exclusively @ PREMIERWUZHERE Webshop (which has been referred to by DJ Premier on his Facebook page as “the only place you can get the cd or vinyl around the world”).
