Reckonize Real & Guilty Simpson: Carved From Stone (Stream)

Happy to see the full release of the latest Guilty Simpson project, as the Detroit legend joins forces with Queens-based producer, Reckonize Real. The EP manages to pack a lot of dope into its five full-length tracks, including features from Georgia Anne Muldrow, M-Dot, Mayhem, Chuuwee and Deff Cutz. Guilty is on fine form, as to be expected and he’s found a good ally in Reckonize Real’s production. Carved From Stone can be streamed below and downloads/physicals are available via Real Deff Music Group.

Phat Kat ft. La Peace: It Don’t Get No Liver Than This

Detroit underground legend and J Dilla favourite, Phat Kat, is reissuing his 2007 Carte Blanche album. Phat Kat said that the decision to reissue was made “because it was put out right before the internet blew up, so it never really got to a lot of listeners. And it was a really good project that slipped through the cracks”.
Along with the reissue, he has also dug up a previously unreleased track for us to savour. It Don’t Get No Liver Than This is produced by Dilla and features fellow Detroit MC, La Peace. Originally recorded in 1997, it is one of two Dilla-produced bonus tracks on the updated version, alongside World Premier.
