Rizzle Kicks - Traveller's Chant (Video)

A year ago this week Rizzle Kicks burst onto the scene with their cover of Jessie J's 'Price Tag', and to celebrate they have uploaded the video for the fourth single to be taken from their debut album 'Stereo Typical'. Without a doubt my favourite track on the album, and as ever they come through with sick visuals to match. Get your copy HERE.

Joker - Lost (Feat. Buggsy & Otis Brown) (Video)

Check out the new video from the genius that is Joker. This tune doesn't pack quite as much of a punch as tracks such as 'The Vision', but it's still a cleverly mastered single with that epic Joker sound. The storyline of the video is very relevant after the past 12 months, too.

Dot Rotten - Laughing (Video)

It's grimier and darker than 'Are You Not Entertained', but it's what we love Dot for, and he's delivered something that we all wish we were out raving to on this dull Tuesday afternoon. Keep it up Dot Rotten, loving the grime explosion. Oh also, watch out for killer lyric "looking at females kissing your woo hoo."

Apollo Brown & O.C. - Prove Me Wrong

Premiered by the one and only DJ Premier on Hip-Hop Nation the other night, here is the lead single from Apollo Brown's forthcoming collaborative album with Brooklyn-born legend O.C., which is set for a May 1st release date. Brown is one of the most under-rated beat makers in the game and O.C.'s 'Word Life' from 1994 is an all-time Hip-Hop classic, and it sounds as though he as hungry as ever. Can't wait for this, 2012 is going to be a big year for my favourite genre. Pre-order HERE.
