Grammy Nominated, R.I.A.A. Double Platinum and Gold Certified
Mega-Producer, Fantom of the DOPE Production Unit, Fantom of the Beat
drops the long-awaited video for his new Single, “First Time Ever”.
“First Time Ever” dropped on March 21st, 2017 and features G Snyder and
AB Money. Both the Song and the Video reflect and give us that
authentic New York Hip-Hop sound that is sorely missing from today’s
so-called Rap music scene. Both G Snyder and AB Money address that fact
on their respective bars on “First Time Ever’.
G Snyder, delivers
a flow that is steady, deliberate and precise. He boasts a confidence
that cannot be denied on this track. AB Money is a musical veteran who
has run in the circles with the late Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls and a
host of other prominent DJs in the Rap arena. His veteran stance on the
record is quite clear; artists need to get it together because AB Money
will show you how it’s really done.
Together with the authentic
Hip-Hop track that is constructed by Fantom, this record is already a
favorite amongst Mixshow DJs and Hip-Hop Radio. So take a look at
“First Time Ever” over here on YouTube!!! Give us a “thumbs up” because
we know that you will love it!!!

This is an opportunity I have been waiting a lifetime for and I am excited to do it alongside some of my favorite artists from Connecticut. Stay tuned for more information!!
Check out the video for "Wait" by Oscar Black. Be sure to check out the new mixtape "Always Wanted". This is an automatic banger and an ill video directed by Mike Rawlings. Share and show support! - CTHipHopBlog
I gotta S/O Young Steady for putting out, in my opinion, one of the best CT songs this year. This is a song with both commercial and street appeal to it, the visuals are top notch, the beat is crazy, but above all Young Steady does what he does best and brings the bars!!- CTHipHopBlog
I gotta S/O Mike Nash and KxngCrooked! Always lyrical, always dope, super talented and consistent. Here is another video that is only more proof that lyrical artists belong on top! Be sure to check it out and share!! - CTHipHopBlog
I could pass my biological parents in the street and never know…
I want to thank my fans for giving me the strength and courage to use my upcoming album “Deep SeeS” to share my story with the world. “Adoption” is a song I wrote to finally explore and express the many feelings I have felt around not knowing who my biological parents are. I hope this song can help people who have had a similar struggle and let them know we will “BE OK”!!
If you don't think this hook is an immediate banger, then we will clearly disagree. This song captures an energetic mood that will be undeniable by countless fans. CB Smooth is on the rise! - CTHipHopBlog
Hailing from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, CB Smooth is a rapper and singer
who focuses on Hip Hop but also infuses his work with the Blues, Jazz,
R&B, and Bounce. Part of Dame Grease’s Wave Gang Crew, CB Smooth has
partnered with the independent label Entertaining Mindz to release his
debut album “All I Do” as a follow up to his mixtape “Country Boy
Smooth.” Mixed by famed engineer Fabian Marasciullo, “All I Do” features
Jazze Pha, 8Ball, Boldy James, Cory Jones, and Big Moeses. The first
single, “Never Had” featuring Johnny P, was produced by legendary
hitmaker Zaytoven.
CB Smooth’s love for Hip Hop started at a young age. At 8 years
old, CB purchased Naughty by Nature’s “Poverty’s Paradise” album, and
soon followed that up by picking up 2Pac’s “All Eyez On Me” and
Notorious B.I.G.’s “Ready to Die.” In addition to Pac and Biggie, CB’s
favorite artists growing up included R. Kelly, G-Dep, Rakim, DMX, Max B,
50 Cent, DJ Screw, Cam’ron, Black Rob, and Ma$e. These artists proved
to be incredibly influential on CB Smooth’s style as a Hip Hop artist.
His love for the soulful nature of R. Kelly’s song-writing, as well as
the infectious hooks of Max B’s music, provided him with the insight to
focus not just on the standard bars dropped by most emcees, but also on
the choruses, bridges, and production that are key in making quality
music. For CB Smooth, the best things in life are music, basketball,
boxing, and hustling.
"Gone But Not // Duality // Progression" is where two seemingly different worlds meet, where classical jazz is deconstructed and reconstructed into the current sound of the streets. By merging the old with the new, we are redefining what it means to be relevant in this three part musical project. - Gone But Not
I am truly honored to be part of this project alongside many artists who I have looked up for for a while, including Rockie Fresh and Towkio. IRA and DM are both very established musicians and they took the time to select the beat, listen to my verses, give feedback and recorded me in the best studio I have recorded in to date. The engineering in this song is incredible. This opportunity was truly a blessing and I hope you listen to this song keeping in mind how much I poured my heart into this song. - SeeS Music
This may very well be one of the best Grind Mode Cyphers Bar 4 Bar that I have heard yet. My personal favorites on this are Big G's and FNX, but everybody went in! This is a must watch cypher!!
Shout out all the dope artists in CT and around the world that are celebrating 4/20 today. I wanted to share a bunch of "feel good" music from local and independent artists. If you would like to be featured hit me up @ facebook.com/sees09!
