I really like Stones Throw Records. Not only because they are the home for a variety of awesome artists such as Madlib, MF Doom, Aloe Blacc, Mayer Hawthorne and others, but also because they are kind enough to release cool stuff for free downloads from time to time. Here's one of these releases: Detroit rapper Guilty Simpson with Bumps on a track called Drums. Gymbag remix added as a bonus. Enjoy!

Henry Bowers is an enormously talented Swedish rapper. Not only does he make good songs, he is also one hell of a battle rapper and a skilled poet. Plus he has a cool beard. The TV OD LP was officially released for free download on the 24th of April, 2011. And no, he does not rap in Swedish. He raps in English.

The LP is a prime example of what underground hip hop should be about. Bowers takes a shot at the society of today: mass media (duh!), globalization and hypocrisy - all that on smoking hot dubstep-influenced beats. Just awesome!  Henry Bowers is definitely a dude that needs to be checked out by every true hip hop fan out there.

Chamillionaire is a critically acclaimed American rapper who recently released a new mixtape called Major Pain 1.5. The mixtape is, without a doubt, a quality product. Great sound, on-point lyrics and a great beat selection are the keywords of this mixtape. The mixtape is something that should satisfy both underground lovers and the-latest-radio-pop-rap-hit lovers... especially if either of them loves that little "dirty south" feeling.
