Montreal producer Teck-Zilla releases Sade-sampled beat tape

With a career that spans nearly 30 years, Sade has earned her spot in the soul hall of fame. Sure, many artists in the past have remixed and sampled her work, but none of those projects are as ambitious as Son of Sade: An Ode FreEP. Brought to you by the Montreal-based beatsmith, Teck-Zilla, this near 20 minute jam blends the work of the singer with Teck's Boom bap production savvy. What's interesting to note is that like Sade, Teck was born in Nigeria and spent time living in London, so it's no surprise that both of these artists' sounds can pair so well together. Son of Sade: An Ode is now available here https://soundcloud.com/diamondmedia360/sets/teck-zilla-son-of-sade-an-ode for free download. Official track list: 01. Sade's Intro 02. Theme To S.o.S. 03.

El Gant releases single with Chris Webby & Ill Bill off his new album

With three different flows: El Gant's breakneck style, Chris Webby's rap attack and Ill Bill's legendary heavyweight bars, "Three Amigos" offers the perfect blend legends and new school talent on one dope track. Whether you're a new head unfamiliar with Bill's classic catalog, or a Boom bap aficionado unfamiliar to Webby, Gant skillfully brings both artists together in a way that you'll inevitably become a fan of both. Over this guitar heavy instrumental, JOAT (Jack of all Trade) provides a beat that begs to be rapped over; thankfully, the three emcees do it justice. "Three Amigos" is the lead leak off El Gant's Beast Academy LP, which is available now. For those who haven't been paying attention to El Gant, stop sleeping.
