The past 12 months were filled with a wide assortment of excellent releases from a variety of indie label,s and numerous more self-released via either Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Audiomack, DJ Booth, Live Mixtapes or other lesser known venues and methods. Since it’s tough to keep track of what came out, that’s we have compiled this list […]
“While You Were Sleeping” exists purely to showcase quality indie and underground Hip-Hop/Rap releases that are regularly overlooked, under promoted or downright ignored by most supposed “Rap” or “Hip-Hop” sites.
Marco Polo is the producer your favorite producer hates to give props. When Hip-Hop snobs get an ear whiff of the beats that are created from his Canadian liar, they’re likely to invest their attention with him opposed to whatever boom-bap snap they were previously savoring over.
Acclaimed produced Marco Polo drops a visual to accompany “G.U.R.U.,” featuring Talib Kweli and DJ Premier, a homage to late Gang Starr MC Keith “Guru” Elam.
Here’s one for the purists. Well respected producer Marco Polo drops a video for “3-O-Clock,” featuring Organized Konfusion, from his forthcoming PA2: The Director’s Cut album.

Producer Marco Polo drops the follow up to Rakim’s “What’s Wrong” with a track by another one of the culture’s all time greats, Big Daddy Kane. Titled “Nite & Day,” the song is a Hip-Hop lover’s dream.
