@yUthe78er - Never Burning Out (Produced By @DrewliusDave) (Single)
*I dedicate this song to my father, Michael Willingham Sr., who just passed on Fathers Day. The song kinda reminds me of how he'd break things down to me. Of how he didn't exactly understand my world, being 18 years older than I, but by principle, we still found things that we could relate on. As people, we all are different, but still very similar when u get to the root of things.

Dyslexia and Sik Sense - Habits (Album)
"Habits" introduces a much darker soundscape than previous work. Inspired by, and drawing from themes generally avoided in Hip-Hop; addiction, anxiety, disdain and malice are coupled with equal parts braggadocio, self-doubt and a love stain size smattering of self deporacating humour which leads you on a dizzying spiral into the minds of Dyslexia and Sik Sense. With features from Fugitive 9 kingpins; Cosmo TX, Cuda Brown, Moe Hendrix, Sintax 0 and Whyze Oner you are welcomed into the re-emerging pattern of habits with an awkward handshake and a tipped stetson.
This album will make you ask questions that we can not answer.

@lokiscottishrap - GIMP (Government Issue Music Protest)
Now, Loki presents his most ambitious project to date - G.I.M.P. (Government Issue Music Protest), an album detailing Loki's thoughts and fears about the impending Scottish referendum on independence, incorporating dystopian satire, impassioned polemic and his brutally frank analysis of Scottish class, poverty and politics. A multi-media, cross-platform event with elements of journalism, visual art, filmmaking and of course hip-hop, this is an album that demands to be experienced.
Pre-ordering your CD, here and now, is the ONLY way to hear G.I.M.P. in full. Available, in a limited edition of 200, via this Kickstarter campaign.
HERE
Scotland's hip-hop scene and beyond have already been set alight by Loki's video for lead single, The Obituary of Thomas Sheridan, which clocked more than 10,000 views in 24 hours of its release.
Black Lantern Music are proud to present G.I.M.P. in association with Loki. Get involved in the crowdfunding campaign, and you could be rewarded with exclusive Loki tracks, specially-produced art prints, and much more. All donations above £3 will get you a free EP of Loki tracks, delivered by download code, including 'The Death of Thomas Sheridan.' Donations above £8 act as a pre-order - you will receive the EP immediately via a download code, and you will receive your copy of G.I.M.P. before it hits the streets.
LOKI - THE STORY SO FAR...
Loki's central role in the development and evolution of Scottish hip-hop cannot be understated, and his influence as a writer and performer can be felt wherever Scottish rap is found. Loki works across a variety of other platforms including broadcasting and theatre. Between 2004 and 2006 he wrote and presented 8 programs for BBC Radio Scotland which attempted to examine the root causes of anti social behavior and social deprivation. In 2012 he co-wrote the National Theatre Scotland production Jump. He has appeared as a commentator on STV's Newsnight and other programmes.
In 2009, Loki founded Volition Scotland, an organisation which attempts to put young people in charge of the services they use. Volition has a small premises in Ibrox where the young people designed and built a community recording studio. A firm believer in community action which benefits young people by empowering and ecouraging them to develop their talents independently, rather than following a leader or teacher, Loki's role as mentor and facilitator has resulted in a tight-knit and motivated group who can achieve real results on their own terms. Many people, including Sir Tom Hunter and First Minister Alex Salmond, have expressed support for Loki's work, which is noted for its potential to empower those on the margins of society.
PRESS FOR LOKI
“Whether rapping on the serious or launching into one of his side splittingly funny freestyles Loki is the all round emcee people dream of being." - The List Magazine
“Loki may be the first great Scottish Rapper, he’s got a hard Glasgow stare and a South-side brogue, raps like an elastic band snapping paperclips into the dark. With a suppleness that faulty recalls Nas or The Streets. Melancholy without being trite, honest without being sentimental. Heart breaking hip-hop that reveals 'Dry your eyes' for what it is: candy floss, soap opera, anachronism.” - The Skinny Magazine
“In our Restorative Justice Project we work with juveniles who have gotten in trouble with the law. Most of them are poor, many of them are involved with drugs or alcohol, and most turn to others close to their age for guidance (whether good or bad). Hip-hop is a language that can reach them. Loki's approach is solid and promising.” - T. Richard Snyder
“Loki is a local hero. Passionate, articulate, with his own, unique voice and a commitment to encouraging others to find their voice. We're lucky to have him in Scotland - this project and the guy himself deserve our vote.” - Janice Forsyth, BBC Scotland, TV and Radio presenter"

@Dynamic_EQ - Post Crack Era (Album)
Part of Dynamic Equilibrium's allure is the cinematic style of their music videos. Their first release, "Pangea", captivated people across the world, with its usage of Charlie Chaplin's infamous scene and a gritty, post-apocalyptic backdrop.
But beyond the visuals, the chemistry the duo has together sets them apart. Queens native Alpha Memphis oozes in confidence, evident in the variety of flows and cadences he has at instant command. Brooklyn's MACHIA shows tremendous range in production throughout their works, and even occasionally trades rhymes with his partner.
Their music is conceptual and yet remarkably smooth to the ear. And with their first album, they are set to introduce the world to a new age: This is POST CRACK ERA.
