All eyes are on Isaiah Rashad following the release of his acclaimed Cilvia Demo EP. Hip-Hop Wired recently sat with the Chattanooga, Tenn. MC at the height of his newfound popularity to discuss his debut project, joining TDE, and his thoughts on the Grammys following Kendrick Lamar’s highly panned loss to Macklemore.
The Internets have spoken, and many will say that Isaiah Rashad came out of the corner swinging with Cilvia Demo. Today, TDE released a short documentary that gives the project a little added context.
Isaiah Rashad may be on the hottest rap label on the planet but ultimately he has to work thrice as hard to meet the lofty expectations set by Kendrick Lamar and ScHoolboy Q.
This February doubles as ScHoolboy Q season. With his highly anticipated Oxymoron debut set to release in a few weeks, the TDE wordsmith unveiled the tracklist to build anticipation.
ScHoolboy Q easily has one of the most anticipated albums of 2014 in Oxymoron. Hip-Hop Wired recently spoke the self-described “gangta rapper” about his upcoming debut, TDE planning to release six projects this year, and more.
Hours shy of releasing Cilvia, TDE’s new recruit, Isaiah Rashad, delivered a visual for a track title, “Soliloquy,” for your viewing pleasure.
Kendrick Lamar is unavoidable these days and considering he’s arguably the hottest young rap artist in the game, the high visibility makes sense. K-Dot’s latest media splash is gracing the cover of JET magazine for their Black History Month special issue, and the TDE standout shares more of his story.
TDE’s only Tennessee Titan, Isaiah Rashad couldn’t wait to announce to the Hip-Hop community that his new mixtape Cilvia would be entering the fray in 2014. No worries, that is still definitely happening. His label just put an ixnay on that mixtape title and are deciding to release it as an EP.
The latest MC to join the TDE fold, Isaiah Rashad, returns with a new track titled “RIP Kevin Miller.” But that was to be expected after the imprint’s boss Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith promised a new release today.
Remember when TDE promised six albums in 2014? Well, CEO Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith never specified who would release what or when, and that becomes all too apparent with Ab-Soul‘s recent revelation.
93.5 KDay’s Fresh Fest 2013 was on and popping in the City of Angels last night, December 28. The premier West Coast attraction featured Hip-Hop at its finest as the rest of the world prepared themselves for the coming of 2014.
Each new release makes the fact that Cilvia will be Isaiah Rashad‘s first project ever all the more vexing. Yesterday, he debuted a smooth cut named after Houston legend Scarface that he calls “Brad Jordan,” featuring Michael Da Vinci.
