Context - I'm Bitter (Freestyle)
With a new EP on the way, Context decides to drop a freestyle to hold us over till then. Cool concept, great rhymes and another piece of music that excites me about this upcoming MC.

Official visuals for the dope collaborative single between Lupe Fiasco & Ed Sheeran. Absolutely love this...
Uploaded earlier today, here are the monster visuals for the lead single from Murkage's forthcoming album 'Of Mystics And Misfits', which will be out soon on Archetype. The video is directed by Murkage's own Gaika, and is one of the best this year. You can get your copy of the single HERE.
The Murkage boys team up with fellow Mancunian Bipolar Sunshine for their new single 'La Plage', which as always spans across a wide variety genres, to create a fresh forward-thinking sound. My favourite Murkage track to date, with a big video to follow.
As part of his in-depth interview with Zane Lowe aired earlier this week, Eminem stopped by Maida Vale studios in London and gave a rare live performance of 'Stan' & new single 'Berzerk' backed up by his full live band. Probably my favourite rapper alive today, great to see him back doing what he loves best.
Part 1 & 2 of the Eminem interview with Zane for BBC Radio 1. What a series. Watch and listen.
Riding high in the Hype Machine chart, here is Benji Boko's latest remix, which sees the super talented beatmaker bring Craig Mack's classic right into 2013. Loving this.
Following on from the huge success of the first installment, Mikill Pane returns with the You Guest It Too EP, which features, Newton Faulkner, Sway, G Fresh & more. The video after the jump is a behind the scenes insight on the making of the EP, and is the video for my favourite track from the EP, which features Gnarly Ventura (aKa Jordan of Rizzle Kicks). Dynamite material - download HERE.
What do you get when you throw together Mayer Hawthorne, 2 of the most exciting underground MCs around and a producer whose credits range from work with MF Doom to the late J Dilla? Quite a serious record apparently, 'The Buzz' forms the A-side to Californian duo MED & Blue's second EP, which shares the same name as the title track, and is due for release on November 26th. Hip-Hop as it should be.
Los Angeles based singer-songwriter Jhene Aiko hooks up with Kendrick Lamar for a smooth new track entitled 'Stay Ready'. The track is featured on her forthcoming Sail Out EP, which marks the singer's first release since signing for Def Jam Records in 2011 and is available for pre-order HERE now.
