7 G.E.M.S. (Tragedy Khadafi x Tragic Allies) – Golden Era Music Sciences (Ill Adrenaline) 5.14.2013
Massachusetts based (Lynn, MA) but internationally respected group Tragic Allies teamed up with Queensbridge’s legendary MC Tragedy Khadafi to form the crew 7 G.E.M.S. The entire project is produced by Purpose who recently opened eyes with his emceeing on last year’s The Purpose Of Confidence. This time around he gets to shine for his boardwork as his entire crew trades bars with lyrical monsters such as Roc Marciano, Killah Priest, Shabaam Sahdeeq & Relentless. If you’re a connoisseur of quality beats and bars then you need this album in your collection. Golden Era Music Sciences can be acquired from iTunes, Amazon, UGHH & Sandbox Automatic.
Dexter –The Trip (Melting Pot Music) 5.17/5.21.2013

Dexter uses 60’s era psychedelic & progressive rock as sample sources to take the listener on an intense audio odyssey you can’t afford to miss. Dexter’s latest opus The Trip can be purchased via iTunes, Amazon, UGHH, Juno, streamed and downloaded from Dexter’s Bandcamp or ordered direct from Melting Pot Music.
