When Apollo’s blaring suites soothe your soul, it’s an ontological fact that he ranks among the best producers in the game. With Blasphemy, the duo has delivered the truth. The new album comes … Continue reading Apollo Brown & Ras Kass Announce New Album Blasphemy

Royalz Man Vs Maschine Vol 3

Whether you think hip hop is evolving or falling apart is purely up to individual perception. In the eyes of Melbourne label Grhyme Productions, it isn’t necessary to dig up the soil and rip apart the foundations of the artform that many pioneers toiled over in order to produce something ‘new’.

However, among those triumphs there are always those third instalments that fall flat, and the dynasties that don’t quite … Continue reading Royalz Man Vs Maschine Vol 3
