Ghostpoet releases his second album, again more deep, low slung hip hop, with that addictive lazy flow over bubbling, electronic soul based beats, real tidy! Talib Kweli drops a new solo album with an array of guest talent featuring (Miguel, Kendrick Lamar, Busta Rhymes, Nelly...)

Ex-Banqueteer Buddy Peace releases a new full length on Strange Famous, this time pairing up with US MC Prolyphic - highly recommended, as you'd expect with Buddy beats on there! 

Also check a couple of great 7"s that have just landed, the Brotherman pic disc 7" which is a remake of his classic 'Heart of Dem' track with a full nine piece hip hop / funk band and also the Tall Black Guy 7" who we just can't get enough of here, deep soulful hip hop based beats all the way!!
