I think this is one of those songs that inspires you to dream by touching upon feelings of aspiration we can all relate to. These three MCs take you on a journey by outlining their visions of achieving greater fame through Hip Hop. The combination of style and approach to the mic between each artist makes this song more interesting than your average Hip Hop song which reflects upon the past.

"Fame" is from the full length LP by Evidence "Cats & Dogs", out now on Rhymesayers Entertainment.



Evidence is known for focusing on the boom-bap in collaborating with some of the best producers the underground has to offer. Check these snippets from the instrumental version of "Cats &Dogs" which features the production of Alchemist; Charli Brown; DJ Premier; Evidence himself; Rahki; Sid Roams and Twiz The Beat Pro.

You can always count on Beat Society producer Shuko to bring fresh sounds and ideas to your ear in the art of boom-bap. Fashawn, Avius & Evidence express the fundamental aspects of their life purpose in rhyme form on "Same Ol' Line", letting you know nothing's changed and they still have a determined path. Shuko comes with a haunting Folk sample and hard-hitting drums to set the tone. His choice of sounds is refreshing to hear as a producer who embraces the power of his imagination.

This track is from Shuko's forthcoming "Foundation vol.2" mixtape hosted by DJ Green lantern and mixed by DJ Illegal from the Snowgoons.

The lead single off of Apathy’s "Honkey Kong" prod. by Evidence speaks from a Hip Hop perspective for those of us who are coping with the latest economic times on a tight budget.

Honkey Kong drops August 23rd and features production from DJ Premier, The Beatminerz, Vanderslice, Stu Bangas, and more. Guest appearances on Honkey Kong include Xzibit, Slaine, Vinnie Paz, Esoteric, Ill Bill, Celph Titled, Action Bronson, General Steele (Smif N Wessun) and Mad Lion. Sounds like an album to definitely look out for..










I'm pretty sure this is the drum break Evidence used on the song, Lou Rawls - Lifetime Monologue 1968. Check both songs out and compare for yourself.
