[VIDEO] Aems- Break Me

New video from DnB and Dubstep artist Aems, this time returning with a thoughtful hiphop track featuring an epic sample from acoustic emo artist "City and Colour". The Video suits the track perfectly, with dark, and transient visuals, cold and lonely, yet strangely haunting. Well worth a look.

Local legend Smoove takes a break from his critic-killing soul duet with vocalist Turrell to deliver this excellent track featuring the alphabetical acrobatics of Jehst and Micall Parknsun. With an excellent video from Nick Light, and keys from Mike Porter, this is a must buy.

[TRACK] Nity Gritz - Misfit



To Scotland now for this track I was linked recently. Nity has a great flow and decent lyrics. I just wish the recording could be better, but still, this deserves inclusion for the skill of the rapper. Worth a listen, and I will be listening to more from this guy as a result of hearing this track. Good stuff.

[TRACK] L&S - Runaway



Leddie and Smoggy cover Joe Budden's "Runaway". Great bars as usual from these two. Boro's finest.

[VIDEO] Rick Fury - Hustlin



Always one to drop quality, Rick Fury shows why is undoubtedly one of the best rappers from the region. Mint.

[VIDEO] Skrufz ft Sophie Quin - Millionaires



Local legends The Skrufz come with a new track featuring the lovely vocals of Sophie Quin. Catchy and poignant, this is well worth a listen.

[VIDEO] PJ & Duncan - Let's Get Ready to Rhumble (Live)



A bit of a tongue in cheek this post, however, north-east rappers would do well to bear in mind that these two went on to a platinum selling album and are officially the biggest selling hiphop artists from the North-East. The LP "Psyche" was, undoubtedly, a commercial rap record. Obviously aimed at a younger audience, and riding the success of TV Show "Byker Grove", they actually managed to make Geordie Rapping mainstream and went on to be two of the most successful entertainers ever from the region. I guarantee a lot of you will remember this track with great fondness. I know I do. Don't hate. Big up Ant & Dec!!
