For the second leak off JSOUL's upcoming remix project, the Baltimore producer/singer gets down to his R&B roots with an Extended Funked Out Mix of D'Angelo's "Devil's Pie". Originally produced by DJ Premier for the 2000 album Voodoo, JSOUL's version of "Devil's Pie" brings out the funk and really showcases JSOUL's production skills.

Check out the track below and lookout for the entire remix project to drop in July.

As a kid born in 1980 and being privileged to witness Hip Hop's rise from its start into the Golden Era & beyond, JSOUL wanted to pay homage by taking it back to a time where lyrics mattered and the beats were crafted to paint pictures with cinematic accuracy. In Hip Hop, the beats made you fall in love with the artist just as much as the artist made you fall in love with the beats.

JSOUL tells us, "When I first started producing music, I made up in my mind that I wanted to make music that gave me the same feeling I had when I first heard, Enter The Wu, ILLmatic, Ready To Die, Midnight Marauders, Reasonable Doubt, Doe Or Die, My Life, Do You Want More, Fantastic vol 2., Like Water For Chocolate, The Score, Baduizm, etc. Those were the albums that were the soundtrack to my life when I was in high school growing into a man. That head nod, that feel good, that real."

On his new remix project, JSOUL Remixed It, JSOUL pays homage to that time and attempts to be a bridge from the music lovers of his generation to the future generation of hip hop heads.

"I wanted cats from my era to hear these re imagined songs and fall in love with the songs all over again. Take them back with new beats and never lose the integrity of the song. I wanted to match each artists feel perfectly but with my own spin on it, while perhaps introducing the younger cats to the artist and songs that created the foundation for them to stand on." - JSOUL

In promotion for their upcoming album dropping at the end of the month, Lessondary enlists DJ Low Key to provide a mix of Lessondary crew tracks from over the years. The 10 year collective has collaborated on each other's solo work over the years and now you can hear them all in one mix.

Lessondary's debut collective album, Ahead of Schedule, arrives June 24th.

Following the success of their collaborative albums with Von Pea and Substantial, DMV production duo The Other Guys return with their new album, Life in Analog. Busting at the seams with the soulful sounds and hard hitting drums the duo has been known to provide, Life In Analog features guitarist Brian Woods and bassist Mitch Beer, with vocal performances from veteran artist Skyzoo, Tanya Morgan, Kooley High & Substantial. Life In Analog careens through tales of friendship, family, and the everyday grind.

Kicking off the first single is the Kooley High assisted "For My People". Life In Analog will be available worldwide on July 22nd and can be preordered on Compact Disc and Mp3. Preorders will receive an immediate download of "For My People".

This past week on The Platform (HiPNOTT Records' premiere radio program hosted by DeeJay Crank), we were treated to a 60 minute show dedicated to the label's vast catelog, past and present. During this hour long mix, DeeJay Crank spun new singles from LiKWUiD, Greenspan, P.SO and more. He also threw in a ton of classic cuts from The Regiment, Intelligenz, Von Pea, and The Other Guys; and gave us three world premieres from Bop Alloy, Deep, and Lessondary.

You can catch DeeJay Crank on The Platform every Tuesday and Friday evening from 6pm - 7pm EDT on radio.hipnottrecords.com.

On this second single from Substantial's upcoming EP with fellow Bop Alloy producer Marcus D, the Maryland rhymespitter raps about the path of life. We all have a different path to travel, and the right way is not neccessarily set in stone.

Sub cleverly weaves​ together​ the story of ​his journey with​ ​the various train stops​ he grew up near in​ ​​the DMV area and later in New Y​ork​ City​​.​

Not everyone will take "The Sub Way"... we all have to find our own way.

Present - The EP drops May 27th.

Synthaesthesia is a neurological condition where two senses entwine. In this case when P.SO heard that 2 Hungry Bros beat, he tasted Moo Goo Gai Pan and then invited K.Gaines and LiKWUiD to partake in the feast that is now being shared with you.

The Paleo Tuesday tradition continues with P.SO & 2 Hungry Bros' "Moo Goo Gai Pan" featuring K. Gaines and newly signed HiPNOTT emcee LiKWUiD. Last Friday, Deep's second album, Bushwick Beatfeed was released on cassette and digital format. Maybe the beat on this song will intrigue your pallate for some more of Deep's unique seasonings.
