PAPOOSE x JUSTIN TYME x SAVANT AKA STANSTRO x KOOL G RAP
In preparation for the 2nd installment of DJ Jesaya and Flaming Monkey’s “Operation Hope” compilation and his own “Initial Entry” mixtape, recently minted Los Angeles (by way of Chicago) emcee, Savant aka Stanstro unites with hip hop legend Kool G Rap, NY rap staple Papoose and Flaming Monkey flagship Swiss barsmith Justin Tyme over an orotund J.Cardim sonic backdrop.
MdotforMayor and El Prez definitely rep LA on “Missions”, the latest release from his ModelsSuckProject campaign. @elprezdeLA checks in for the hip hop heads of the left-coast, while Mdot delivers what seems to be his best verse to date. LA may be known for palm trees and sunshine, but there are also plenty of hardworking people that hit the pavement everyday and who’s only Hollywood experience is seeing the sign from a highway. ( The hollywood sign is visible from south central, east L.A. Compton, Watts, etc). Produced by @MdotforMayor and mix courtesy of Jhair Lazo, via the Penthouse Recording Studio. Exclusive artist interviews, behind the scenes footage, studio sessions, etc. can all be viewed @ modelssuckproject.com.
MdotforMayor keeps it in LA with his latest feature, connecting with Mr. hardwork himself, Thurz. The beautiful Asia Shabazz serenades us on “Give It To You“, which is definitely inspired by the 90’s, and the feel good vibe, music from that time period carried. Enjoy the last few months of summer, with the latest single off the ModelsSuck album. Production courtesy of @MdotforMayor and mixed by Jhair Lazo at Penthouse Recording Studio.

“At age 27, Portland MC Tope has become an old hand in the Portland, Or hip-hop scene. His career stretches back almost a decade, but this year, he seems to be hitting his stride. His new EP, Trouble Man, is a heartfelt snapshot of where he’s at now, musically and emotionally.
Lyrically, the record is steeped in nostalgia. Tope has always been somewhat of a romantic, crafting love songs that walk the line between sincerity and smooth talk. He spits pick-up lines at girls in coffee shops on “Church Girls” and bickers with his girlfriend for smoking his weed on “Stuck.” Elsewhere, he takes a more serious tone, addressing the death of his grandfather and mother as well as his rocky relationship with his father on “About You” and “Birthday Song,” respectively. His personal insights are brief and to the point, but they’re refreshing on an album that is mostly devoted to life’s good times. But the most captivating aspect of Trouble Man is the production. Tope really has come into his own as a beatmaker, chopping samples so they coo and hum at just the right moments. “Start” blends chopped guitar lines, sped-up vocals and splashy drums to create a breezy tune built for the sound system of a vintage car. He gets smoother on “Take Your Time,” which samples Erykah Badu and features live instrumentation from trumpeter Farnell Newton. He even wanders into pop territory, turning Cheryl Lynn’s “Got to Be Real” into a party jam on “Family Affair.” Trouble Man is a display of Tope’s versatility, not just behind the mic, but behind the boards as well.”
