Hawthorne Headhunters - Myriad of Now EP

Groups breakup! It's just something that happens. Sometimes the answer is obvious (friction), while other times it's just simple differences that don't even matter. Well, St. Louis natives Black Spade and Coultrain, the two remaining members of Hawthorne Headhunters have no beef whatsoever with former members, MC Adad, I -Ced & Pro Mic. The desire to go solo was just imperative for the former three. Good for them. MC Adad is currently working on his solo while both I-Ced and Pro Mic have release dope debuts. Now Hawthorne Headhunters follow up and carry the name strong with their Myriad of Now Ep. This is just a glimpse of what's to come from the full length 14 track album due out next year. A combination of Electro, Funk, Jazz, and Soul music fused with free spirited lyrics. I'm a fan of both artists, so when I pressed play, I allowed the music to do what it do: ENGAGE! 

Myriad of Now released last month, and I've had this since the 24th of then, but for those who are still sleeping or just not at all aware, peep two gems from the EP below. Groups like Hawthorne Headhunters in my opinion deserve to be a household name, but I do understand, some things are just not for everyone. But for those that feel their eclecticism, support them on itunes and stay tuned for more.

Black Spade - Build & Destroy

On my ride to check out the Theophilus London show out here in Tampa this past Wednesday, I equipped my ipod with the eclectic vibe of Black Spade's – Build & Destroy Mixtape. 2008's To Serve With Love was in my opinion one of the best albums of that year "serving" souled out hip hop to old and new fans such as myself. With Build & Destroy being his first mixtape ever, he's done exceptionally well showcasing his varied styles, his passion for diversity and uniqueness in his sound and art. Stoney Rock as he is also known will delight the eccentric listener with stories of disdain for the b.s in music and entertainment and the reputations built around it, the strength of life and love and of course, just straight up hard hitting lyrics and beats. Peep the track below then go download the mixtape following.
