Elro - Scrabble (Feat. JME & Manga) (Prod. Preditah) x Pointless (Prod. Toddla T)

Following on from his well received debut single 'Bad News', which features The D.O.T. (Mike Skinner & Rob Harvery) on the newly resurrected Beats label, Welsh rapper Elro drops off a sick 7-track mixtape called 'Porcelain Corse'. Most of the production is handled by Markus Jakes, but it's the Preditah & Toddla T tracks that stand out for me - 'Scrabble' is the type of witty Grime track you would expect with the Brummy beat-maker behind the boards and JME & Manga providing verses. 'Pointless' is a refreshing sound though, with Toddla providing a Gorillaz-type beat to allow Elro to showcase his lyrical prowess on the mic and his incredibly unique flow. Check them both out after the jump, along with some words from the man himself - download HERE. Love this guy, can't wait for an album.

Behind The Music: The Notorious B.I.G. (Full Episode)

Premiered last night on VH1, here is a look back at the life of iconic rapper The Notorious B.I.G. The one-hour episode is updated from the original 2001 airing, and documents Big's rise from the streets of Brooklyn to the top of Hip-Hop, before his life was taken from him at the tender age of just 24 in 1997. Commentary comes from Diddy, his mother, Faith Evans and many more - a must watch for any Hip-Hop fan, with some eye-opening evidence/revelations related to Big's death and the case that followed.

WIN Exclusive Signed Wretch 32 Print by Urban Artist Soap

I'm very excited to bring you the first collaboration between The House Of Coxhead and Adam Klodzinzki, who is based in Bournemouth and is better known as Urban Artist Soap. Adam's main passion in life is graffiti, and he uses a special paint/technique to create scarily realistic looking images that have been blowing people away for the past couple of years. He also has a huge love for music (Hip-Hop in particular), and has been a fan of my blog for some time now, so it was only right that we got together to bring you something a little special. Over the past two years he has painted the likes of Ed Sheeran, Goldie, Mistajam and many more - over the next 6 months we have decided to do portraits of Wretch 32, Rizzle Kicks & Harry Styles (Example too, although that was painted last year), and give you the chance to win 5 exclusive signed prints of this incredible artwork.

Adam Kanyama - The Golden Child

Brought to my attention by Discobelle earlier today, 'The Golden Child' is the debut single from 16 year old Swedish rapper (yep, you read that right) Adam Kanyama, and it's beyond sick. His slick flow coupled with the extremely funky production and massive chorus makes for the most refreshing sound. One of my favourite finds of 2012 - get your copy HERE.

Some refreshingly unique visuals for the lead single from Rewd Adams & The Last Skeptik's forthcoming collaborative album 'Hot Not To Make A Living', which is set to drop May 7th. With the upbeat production from Skeptik and Rewd's effortlessly cool flow, this has a bit of an OutKast feel to it, and is a heartfelt Hip-Hop love song done right, which is something we don't see enough these days. Top track, can't wait for the album.
