An artist that goes by the name of Ali Tomineek is making his Lyrical Lemonade debut today with his brand new offering titled “Whoa Now” featuring Jayhavoc. Ali Tomineek’s lyrical capability really stood out to me after running through this song a couple of times, you can tell that he takes pride in placing words at the perfect point in the song, he even stressed his voice in certain directions to match the energy of his self produced instrumental. As if Ali’s contribution to this record wasn’t enough, Jayhavoc blessed this back end of this one with an impressive feature to put the cherry on top. Listen to this brand new song below and if you like it go ahead and give him a follow on Soundcloud here.

A few days back Lyrical Lemonade favorites Mulatto and Cangelosi teamed up for an amazing to mix titled “Grand Prix Mix” to honor the legendary Frankie Knuckles on his birthday. These two creatives really did a great job at putting this together, it felt more like an experience than just a mix because of the well timed skits that they would strategically place in there, it would leave you with a thought just as the beat switched up. I really enjoyed this record and I believe that you will too, take a few minutes of your day and stream this amazing new mix below! artwork by NIPZ

Today we are more than excited to introduce you to 16-year-old rapper Lil Tecca as he drops off his new single, “Did It Again.” The New York based artist teams up with Nick Mira and Taz Taylor on this one who lay down the perfect production for Tecca to ride over.

Han Vader is a creative from Atlanta that I have posted a handful of his records up to this point, and today he is back with his latest release titled “New Sheriff” featuring Mak Sauce! The feature on the back end of this track from Mak Sauce gave the track an extremely energetic feeling to compliment the foundation that Han Vader paved for him, and together these two made an all around catchy & memorable song. My favorite thing about Han Vader is that he seems to bounce from topic to topic with ease during his verses, plus he has this light-hearted & comedic quality to him that makes the music that much better.

Chicago native MC Tree is making his return to our website today with his brand new thought provoking record titled “The Day After The Verdict”. When it comes to straight lyrical ability not many can go bar for bar with MC Tree, he never wastes a bar and he tends to improve any record that he jumps on. The main topic throughout this record are essentially his thoughts the day after the verdict of ex Chicago police officer & murder Jason Van Dyke for shooting Lawuan McDonald sixteen times, and MC Tree truly poured out his soul and you can hear it in the conviction in his voice. Along with the release of this new offering MC Tree left us with some words adding: “one day after convicted child killer and ex chicago cop jason van dyke was sentenced to 81 months for the murder of 16 year old laquan mcdonald. i felt compelled to express my feelings in a song last night.. i was heated to say the least, although this was the first time in the history of chicago that a chicago cop was convicted of wrongful murder on the job, which in itself is a great achievement …
