Put Some Llama Spit in Your Tape Deck

In 2007 Midwestern Hip-Hop duo Uncut Raw, comprised of emcee/producers Selfish and Fluent, dropped ‘First Toke’ which was instantly recognized by heads with taste as a modern classic of the genre.

Though Fluent teamed up with fellow Green Llamas crewmember Decay for an album titled ‘The Antique Black’ under the group-name City Slick soon after that little has been heard from the Llamas since.

Thanks to the newest addition to the Green Llamas, Watts-bred beatmaker/emcee Dibia$e, with whom the entire Llama posse has recorded an album titled ‘Llamaville,’ that silence is about to come to an end!

Produced in appropriately grimy “tapedeck music” style entirely by Project Blowed veteran Dibia$e the free-to-download ‘Llamaville’ project is a 19-track breakthrough for the Green Llamas as a collective.

And don't forget to keep an ear open for more from Green Llamas including an as-yet-untitled City Slick record, Tone Liv and Vincent Price's ‘Timberland Boots’ and Uncut Raw's long-awaited sophomore LP ‘Heavy Dose.’

You should know Sacramento, California-based Hip-Hop duo DLRN (formerly Delorean) from the artsy-fartsy video for their languid-but-uplifting tune dear “Dear Langston” which I shared in this space not too long ago.

That track was taken from emcee 5th Ave and beatmaker Jon Reyes' 2009 debut full-length ‘No More Heroes,’ which they‘ve since made available as a free download in an effort to whet appetites for their sophomore LP.

You can download ’No More Heroes' at the link below and enjoy listening to it while you count down the days until DLRN make their new record ‘The Bridge’ available for free download as well on July 20th, 2010.

Nuke Fam stalwarts Tone Tank and Scott Thorough team up with Kool A.D. of Das Racist for a bouncy, Reggae-splashed Summertime single titled “Crack Selector.”

The tune is essentially a sequel in everything but name to Das Racist's instant classic “Fake Patois” from their ‘Shut Up, Dude’ mixtape which dropped a while back.

So cool. I actually was looking for a decent priced OG AT-AT on eBay the other day. I have no clue where mine disappeared to. Oh and arriving soon is an all new 24" AT-AT that looks insane. I need to get my hands on one.
