DGK and DJ Don Cannon put out this monthly mixtape hosted by Dj Fu called MC’s U Should Know to provide an outlet for up and coming artists. As you would expect it features a shitload of rappers I never heard of, but a few familiars include…. Priceless, GLC, Black Milk, Senor Kaos, Mach Five, Mums FP, Sean Falyon, and Young Scolla. Some of the songs are kinda wack, but must of them are pretty dope. You be the judge… To vote visit: http://sk8tique.ning.com/ and click on “MCs You Should Know” link to pick your favorite song!

Keep Going -Black Milk

Friday Today eLZhi from Slum Village, drops “The Leftovers Unmixedtape”. Available via eLZhi.com right now!! The album features Rapper Big Pooh, Phat Kat and Royce Da 5?9. On the production, Oh No, Black Milk, DJ Spinna, Jake One and DJ Dez are the big names production wise. This project is crazy ive been a pretty big fan of Elzhi for a while now.. impressive

If you haven’t heard of Black Milk yet you have no idea of what you’ve been missing.  This Detroit producer has been compared to the late J. Dilla in production style, he’s truly what hip hop needs right now along with fellow rapper Royce da 5′ 9″, whom is also in the underground group Slaughter House with Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz, and Crooked I. Not to mention this video is raw!
