Catch Lungs Does Just That!

Yo! This is the first official article from our new author, HISIDER. Its a review of Catch Lungs's "Food For The Famished" (Hosted by The White Shadow aka DJ BEDZ). Peep it.

















Catch Lungs comes out swingin over a Black Milk track, I think the Mixtape should have started with this joint, It grabs you right away. Catch Lungs sounds really fresh over the Industry Instrumentals. Catch Lungs and Purpose sound good together they should team up for a project I think, but back to Food For The Famished.... Here are some of my favorite joints.... "Swishers And Doja" (Ft. Fo Chief & Kontrast) is ill crazy style and flavor I will be adding this to the Hisider play list below. I think they did a good job getting on some player shit with the "Take a Ride" Joint(Ft.
Purpose & Kontrast). O.D. and Kontrast made a smooth beat here. "Game Spitters" (Ft. EMB)... This is a Classic Hip Hop Joint in my opinion (Good Lyrics to a Dope Beat) and EMB if you out there reading this please please holla at us at The Colorado Rap Report.

Both these albums are available on ITunes and Amazon so support the artists and buy!

DISTRAKTIONS

A Colorado Classic, from Distrakt.





















Press Play.



Distrakt "Stereotypes"

One of the best albums of the 21st century, of the 20th century, of the 22nd century, ever. GET IT!

Oh and if you have one of these you are a G...


















BONUS:

Distrakt "Fire Escape" (From the album "DISTRAKTIONS")



IN THE STUDIO WITH DENT AND NOEL Z.

Press Play.





This is exciting. Dent is a veteran MC who always brings his good vibes with him to the booth. And Noel Zancanella is kind of a big deal, from the legacy of The Creeping Ear (Radio 1190), to his professional work producing and engineering for prominent artists all the way from Raashan Ahmad to Nelly (hearsay, we heard he engineered some joints for G-Unit too).

Anyways peep the video above for a sneak preview of the new Dent, including footage of him recording a new song called "Earthquakin".

BONUS:



Dent ft. D.O. and Sol Powa "Just Ride" (prod. by Sol Powa)


(Taken from Dent's most recent release, Confi-Dent, Available for Free Download)

It's bad enough that dope Hip Hop artists have to give their work away for free in '09, what is worse is if the you all don't cop all these free gems lingering around the internets!

OBAMA ON HIP HOP (WHAT!?)

Press Play.



You don't have to agree with him about Hip Hop, even though he definitely loves Hip Hop way more than a lot of young "fans" out there criticizing and categorizing and hating on the "mainstream".

The point is, The President of The United States is a Hip Hop Head! A Real Hip Hop Head!

Crazy...

Our favorite part is when he says "American Gangster", followed by "the biggest thing I am worried about in Hip Hop is the materialism."

Its good to hear him talk about the issues WE care about here at The Report. Obama!

INTERVIEW W/ IMAN S.

COMING SOON: THE NUMERICANS






















Shout out to the OG Selector Sam. Who plays drums on this project.

If you aren't up on Cowboy Zac this dude is like Colorado's very own Beck. Only probably more talented (yes). His Myspace music is one thing but seeing him in person just playing music for fun, at some house party is imperative.

Anyways these two guys and Rapper Lundy are going to be landing on Earth soon and upon impact we expect them to go on tour, and make much monies, and sell many records.

We will update you upon entry into Earth's atmosphere.

ITS DENVER


























Press Play



The Colorado Casuals "Its Denver" (Produced by Jonny Brasko)

Shout out to G.Rhae for sending this over.

"The CasualS originated back in 1966 when 4 primos and one close homie started what was originally a band. The Original CasualS were: Adolph and Mack Jaramillo, Gary Howell, Manuel and David Apodaca. Their love of music went hand in hand with their love for cars. David Apodaca the original President started their annual cruise called “the Annual Manuel” after his brother to reflect both the love of cruising and more importantly the love of Family."

Damn, that's whats up!
