Sic Wit It rapper Cousin Fik, who a lot of you may know from his feature appearences on the latest E-40 albums, is gearing up for the release of his upcoming album "Sickest Nigga Healthy". As for that he called out Decadez to provide him with the minimalist and bassy beat to his new single "Old Bay New Bay". The track is a nice little piece of music for people who like the electronic sound of the new bay. Cousin Fik's rhymes are always worthwhile listening to, he sure has some wit and style, although on this one, he sounds kinda monotonous. Enough babbling though, check the video:

Krizz Kaliko releases "Kickin & Screamin"
Strange Music's own Krizz Kaliko just celebrated the release of his new album "Kickin & Screamin". The Kansas City singer slash rapper hence dropped his 4th solo effort and it sure is an ambitious one. Besides guest appearences by (of course) Tech N9ne, T-Pain, Twista, Chamillionaire among others, fans can expect a wiser and more thoughtful Kaliko, compared to his last release "Shock Treatment" from 2010. But he is not forgetting the party and sometimes almost dub-step kind of heaters either.
One of such is the shrugging, electronic and bass-driven "Spaz" for which he just dropped a video. He gets assistes by label boss Tech N9ne.
Another Tech N9ne featured track is the introspective "Hello Wells", which also got chosen to shoot a video for.
These two tracks should give you a proper impression of what to expect from "Kickin & Screamin", so judge for yourself and if you like it, support Krizz Kaliko and Strange Music.

E-40 strikes with a great line-up for his new videos
Vallejo native and bay area legend E-40 has been known for a work-a-holic not only since he dropped a three-disc album called "The Block Brochure: Welcome To The Soil" earlier this year. Combined with the four-disc set of "Revenue Retrievin" from 2010 and 2011 he has released 140 songs within the last three years and shot numerous videos also. While you can surely argue about the necessity of dropping so much music in that short time, I can assure you that his two new videos will be pleasing the quality rap fan. Therefore he has been reaching out to some of the sickest artists in the scene.
Today, E-40 presented his new single "Catch A Fade" on facebook, featuring his son Droop-E and the westcoast's new ambassador Kendrick Lamar. Watch it below.
Just last week he sent another banger through youtube, the gritty horror-visual of "Zombie" featuring Sacramento's finest Brother Lynch Hung and the fastest tongue in hip-hop Tech N9ne. You can find it below.
E-40 also announced that he's gonna "shoot videos for 93% of the songs on all 3 BLOCK BROCHURE albums". Again, you can discuss whether that is really needed, but as long as he keeps dropping heat like this, most of you should be fine.
And don't forget, the duo album "The History Channel" with long time partner Too $hort is said to be dropping later this year.
