Carl Roe - "S. State St. (feat. DJ Revolution)" [prod. by Nottz]
Seattle-based Carl Roe pays homage to his former stomping grounds while delivering dizzying raps on his new single, “S. State St.” In addition to featuring funky and slapping production supplied by Nottz, and cuts from DJ Revolution, the track serves as the first preview of Roe’s forthcoming LP, Eleven Chuck.
If you’ve followed Roe’s career just the past few years, you know he’s been on an absolute tear. Either on his own, or with collaborators—like with Ripynt on 2015’s great, Martians—the rapper/producer’s output is nothing short of impressive. And that trend only looks to continue with Eleven Chuck.
The album arrives this November 11th, Veteran’s Day. This is a significant day for Roe, a veteran of US Army, with a total of over eight years of service under his belt. He also has the skills to tussle with any wack rappers who come his way, and they’re all under fire on “S. State St.” More than just bravado, the track serves as a memory of where Roe came from, and what it’s like to go back there—something he teases during the intro with a Talking Heads-like riff .
“S. State St.” can now be streamed, and is available as the first instant grat track off the iTunes pre-order for Eleven Chuck. In addition to DJ Revolution, the 17 track LP includes features from his long time partner in rhyme, Ripynt, as well as Fatal Lucciauno, Mic Handz, Landon Wordswell, and more, and boasts production from Brainstorm, GrandRiggity, Carolinah Blu, and of course Nottz, among others.

Malik Ninety Five - "Link Up"
New Orleans-bred artist Malik Ninety Five is making some of the most interesting and left field Hip-Hop right now. His latest single, “Link Up,” proves that point by deftly bridging the gap between pulsing early ‘90s Hip house and the more melodic Rap of the past decade.
The track also proves that the 21-year-old rapper/producer is on the cusp of something bigger, though he’s already received notable accolades through coverage by tastemakers Pigeons & Planes and DJ Booth , among others. And if you’re not hip to the kid yet, consider this your opportunity to catch up—and enjoy a good-ass tune while you’re at it.
The music of “Link Up,” which was produced by CLBTS and Malik, is built on driving percussion and a slick flip of the same Isley Brothers sample that heads will instantly recognize (“Between the Sheets”). It’s the ideal setting for the young artist to straight-up float with his smooth cadence and vocals, which reach those super-catchy, earworm levels on the hook.
“Link Up” is now available for stream and download through all major digital retailers, and serves as a sampling of what we can expect from his forthcoming LP, The Paradise Project, which is set to drop April 28th of next year.

Spiffie Luciano Releases Self-Titled Mixtape (LAOnLock.com Exclusive)
Spiffie Luciano released his 9th consecutive mixtape; & in exchange with the typical theme find for projects, he went with the self-title option for a bigger purpose.
This year has been a successful one for the independent artist from South Central. Connected with SODMG artist ReeseMoneyBagz about 5 months back for a remix of Desiigners "Panda" along with a music video that hit over 30k views since then. Then shortly after that an original single with up & coming Bay Area artist Mozzy featuring Poppa XO. Which was shortly followed by yet another single featuring recent Doggystyle Records signee Jooba RC.
I had the opportunity to be behind the scenes at an interview hosted by Refuse Media for Spiffie, & one of his main statements in response to why he self titled this project was:
“I’m giving the world the real me. This is what I really went through & I just want to tell my story the right way.”

Lily Elise - Palm Trees
Lily Elise is an independent alt-pop artist from the Bay Area. Influenced by a multitude of artists and genres, Elise pulls from each of those when writing songs, creating a unique blend of music that doesn't live in one specific genre. Her music has been referred to as a "mesmerizing mix of ... edgy pop, R&B, or even EDM" by Billboard, and "a stunning combination of pop and R&B that few can pull off" via All Things Go. Elise loves collaborating with artists from a variety of genres, which has allowed her to write for and/or feature on songs with artists such as Dillon Francis, Twin Shadow and Felix Cartal, as well as performing with legendary former Eagles frontman Don Henley. Elise began her musical journey singing in a cappella groups, eventually finding herself on Season 1 of a then-unknown vocal competition show, The Voice. Being a contestant on the show made the young artist realize she needed to have her own voice, driving her to start writing. Solely drawing from her personal experiences, writing songs has become a form of therapy for Elise, who pours her heart and soul into each and every line. Releasing her music completely independently, Elise states, "I don't do music for money or attention. I just want to connect with people and make them feel something.”
