Today, we bring you some of the freshest, newest, cleanest and leanest Hip-Hop tracks that you will hear.  Forget top 40, forget whats 'popular', as we live underground and below radar.

This week, we have a bunch of tracks coming from all across the globe.  We go to Australia, to visit a world class artist, dip to Utah to and then bust over to England.

Trife Diesel and Termanology set off the episode with a 1520 Classic Radio produced track called "Trife & T".  Trife is from Staten Island, NY and Termanology is from Boston, Mass.  The Beat is produced by KendeR of (ahem) Bowmanville (look it up son!) and co-produced by the legendary DJ Flatline of Mississauga.  Shout outs to Clockwork Music on this track!

Leaf Dog, one of The Four Owls and renowned beat maker sends us a Quincy Jones sampled track called "Sweet Thing" all the way from South London, in the UK.  High Focus is the label that Leaf Dog runs, and has worked with many legends within Hip-Hop.

Fliptrix, another member of The Four Owls shot over a new track freshly released called "The Warning", Produced by Molotov.  We gotta hand it to High Focus, they are consistently putting out AMAZING tracks that set a high standard.

Boston Producer Statik Selektah and and New Hampshire MC Chatham bring us a track called "Something For You" Featuring Mr. Cheeks.

Rob Carney is an Instagram find, who sets the tone with his track called "Go Big".  This New Jersey native shot on our radar with his album you can find on iTunes or Google Play.  Be sure to check out his website too.

Hopping aboard a big Jet Liner, we check in with 4thEye from London England with a Youtube freestyle and track from his album (on Bandcamp) called "Soul Rich".  This MC's flow is flawless and creative.  4thEye is a must hear!

Flipping a classic sample, and coming all the way from Ogden Utah, Linus Stubbs produced the track "Commercial Kingz" for Wildelux (of no fixed address).

Of course, DFlowetry, the precocious, ambitions and talented MC from Las Vegas Nevada brings a banger called "Nice as I am".

Let's go to the land where everything wants to eat you.  Perth Australia is where Kid Tsunami hangs his hat, but make no mistake, this beat maker is a BEAST on the beats and production.  Kid Tsunami brings "No Guarantees", and be sure to check his catalog as he has worked with many including Sean Price and Masta Ace.  This guy is simply amazing.

Dro Pesci from New York hit us up with a bunch of bangers, and this week we played "From New York", ft. Infamous Haze.  This raw MC is so talented and real that we just can't get enough.  We hope to do some work with him soon.

King Mean isn't that mean, and in fact, he sounds nice on the Mic.  King Mean sends us "Broken Diamonds" through Twitter.

Lil Doodie from Baton Rouge, Louisiana holds it down with a banger called "Intro", which is the intro to the mixtape THC.  This track also has a video on Youtube, so please, check that out too!

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada bred MC, producer and Juno nominee Muneshine teams up with KendeR of the 1520 Classic Radio Show as we put our "Best Foot Forward".  This track drips with chilled out drums and a plunking bassline.  Shoutouts to Muneshine for repping this, as it was a Japan only release on his album "Status Symbol".

"Long Live" is an homage and dedication to the memory of Justine Aristide (10-31-1996 to 12-30-2014).  Thank you Skylar And Lamb for bringing this to us.

Tinman needs not to see the Wizard, though, he still is heartless with the track FWT (Fuck With This). Tinman is an actor and rapper from Los Angeles California.

Someone call the dogpound, Stray the Rabid Dog from Madrid Spain is on the loose again with his pal Snud from Scotland on a track called "The Rap Undead" featuring Ikue and Kapes.  Snud brings banging production while Stray holds it down on the mic.  More please.  The tracks coming from this pair are incredible.

Topping up the show, we have Venemous2000 from Planet Rock, England (couldn't find that on Google Maps...) with a track called "This Ain't It" produced by Layzee D.  This track swings with a dope flow.

EPISODE 009 - I HEAR VOICES

In this episode we hear voices. Voices of those MC's who have distinction on the microphone.
What is the hallmark of  a distinct MC? Is it a growl?  A signature sound? Intricate word play?


Well, we dug deep into the crates this episode to bring you some raw, edgy and amazing voices that when you hear them, you will be like "DAAAAAMN SON".  

The 1520 Classic Radio Show loves beats, lyrics and intricate rhyme flows and we showcase the likes of all those who can spit a hot rhyme and be remembered by just their voice.

So don't be alarmed when you Busta Rhyme, because we've got the Tone Loc'd after Nine, so Get at Me Dog while I proclaim my fame Celph Titled!

In this episode, we take a trip around the globe from the UK to Canada, Germany, USA and even Spain!

What you hear is literally what is happening in the streets all across the world!

Illa Ghee blesses us with a 1520 Classic Radio produced track called "Incredible Math",  The arithmetic is correct on this equation as Illah Ghee spits hot bars over the 1520 Classic Radio produced beat, Shout outs to DJ Flatline!  You may have heard Illa Ghee on "Hold you Down" produced by Alchemist on 1st Infantry with Nina Sky, and on Mobb Deep's "Hell on Earth".

Illa Ghee also hits us up with an insane track with an equally insane title "Razor Blade Vomit".  Go grab "Social Graffiti" on iTunes now and support this MC, who, in our opinion is the epitome of true Hip-Hop!

If you like true Hip-Hop, don't sleep on this MC from Paris, France who, has a venomous flow and lays it down in French. Venom,  brings us to justice with a track called "Punisseur".

ConciousQuis  brings us the "Best of Both Worlds".  This Jersey City, New Jersey native is a Renaissance man, and brings us this song through our Twitter handle.

We love this name, and we love this track....Mr. Muthafuckin Xquire  has "Conversations With God" in this Mr. Len produced epic.

Strolling across the street from 1520 Classic Radio Headquarters, we hook up a beat and rhyme from Malvern's (Scarborough, Ontario, Canada) own Abaddon and he get's sick on a track called "Swine Flu".  Abaddon is wears both the MC and Producer hats having worked with Gee Wunder, Madchild and a host of other artists.

1520 Classic Radio throws a way back track from their library of songs as Atlas Da African wears his crown proudly.  An African Prince, Atlas brings us a 1520 Classic Radio produced banger called "Quarter Past One".

Hassani Kwess & The Kings declare to us "I Can Rap On Anything", produced by Scarecrow Beats.  This collaborative project between Pittsburgh's Mr. O2tha, Nick Lewis and DC's very own Hassani Kwess blesses us with proof of microphone prowess.

Cortavious Vaughn pens a "Letter to America".  Cortavious Da'Rell is from Cleveland Mississippi, USA and started rapping at the age of 16.  Coming from poverty, racism and other of life's challenges, it's his hope to leave a legacy of hope.

King Piff opens his dictionary and provides "Definition" on a track that slid through to the 1520 Classic Radio Show on Twitter. Originally taken from a video on Vevo, this short taste of this MC's talent defines King Piff's elegant flow.

True Vintage declares every day "My Day", with a track that features Pep Love of the legendary collective "Hieroglyphics". Hailing from above the clouds in Denver Colarado, True Vintage are an outfit that brings true Hip-Hop to the core.  Find them on Kickstarter now, and fund some real deal music.

Marc Vinyls, an alumnus of "It Came From the Streets", and in fact appeared as our very first artist featured, sends us another banger on a more conscious tip.  The track is called "Winter Dayz", produced by Nick Gallow, featuring Yung $.K.R.A.P.

Juxx Diamondz is a raw Brooklyn, New York MC who has teamed up with the legendary Royal Flush from Queens, New York to bless us with a track called "Strapped Up".  Miss Fortune declared this beat to be DIRRRRRTY, mad grimey.  And she's right.  This pair have produced a video for this track as well, and can be found on YouTube.

Jumping across the globe, we land in Madrid Spain, where the streets has produced a dude by the name of Nano, who paints a Spanish picture over Inolbeats with a track called "Turbio".  The flow is smooth, the beat is sick and the video makes me long for warmer weather - this is the epitome of what "It Came From the Streets" is about.  A world ghetto, speaking only one common language - music.

Sinartistix does a "Driveby", produced by SCNTST and delivers this track in German - a first for our show and definition of what this segment is all about.  The Beat, The Flow, the feel is gritty and real.  This is What Hip-Hop is!

Lock up your kids, Stray the Rabid Dog is on the loose as "The Drifter" kills the speakers on this rich flute driven beat produced by SNUD of Glasgow, Scotland.  This Spanish/Scottish mixture is pure underground with a gritty sound causing Miss Fortune and KendeR to nod their heads like some one having a stroke - Well done! We want more from you - please send it to us 1520classicradio@gmail.com

Dirty Dike on the High Focus Label from the UK gets "Agitated" and features Skuff on the track.  This one is another head nodder, from same folks that brought us "The Four Owls" on Volume 3 of "It Came From The Streets".

EPISODE 008 - REST IN POWER

It's another episode of the 1520 Classic Radio Show, and Miss Fortune and KendeR celebrate the lives of those who have passed on.

Though we didn't know these artists personally, their bodies of work have left an indelible imprint on Hip-Hop Music History.

We could talk about ODB, Notorious BIG or even 2pac, but wanted to pay respect to those who have shuffled this mortal coil who may not get the moment that they deserve. 

Some are famous, some are infamous.  Some met their fate through natural causes.  Some were unfortunately murdered in their prime.

So let's not cause any Trouble T-Roy, and take it Eazy-E as we sit back and puff a Big L.

All of them have left impressive bodies of work, to which we raise our O.E., and pour some on the ground.

They may be dead and gone, but their legend lives on.

We also celebrate that Miss Fortune steps up to the mic and firmly asserts herself as the one half to the 1520 Classic Radio Show that completes the ensemble.
