Wise Guise - The Tommy Gun Edition (Limited Edition Double Disc)

Omega Level Records proudly presents:


Wise Guise: The Tommy Gun Edition (Limited Edition Double Disc) featuring both Wise Guise albums, The Knowbuddies (2022) and Couldfellas (2025). Only 20 copies available!!

Wise Guise is a classic, bar fueled, Hip Hop supergroup consisting of members: Hi-Q (US), Absoulut Karnage (US), Fubar (US), Jake Haw (Canada) and Edd Bundy (UK). Starting as just an idea and a suggestion, having already worked together numerous times in the past, a collective project was the next logical step and thus blossomed 'Wise Guise'.
A mixture of styles compiled in one place with roots firmly steeped in Boom Bap, Edd Bundy production provides a base for Fubar, Karnage, Hi-Q and Jake to implement their varying, yet complimentary skills, through their own brand of rap.
December 2022 saw the release of their debut album 'The Knowbuddies' which was released on all digital streaming platforms.  "Couldfellas" is the 2nd full album released by the collective once again available on all popular streaming services.

LYRICS:


Suit of calluses, active and moving callous
Anomaly in the algorithm, do the algebralculus
I’m all of Alexandria’s information in aggregate
Ruling elder giving you the hell that melt the valuables 
Riddances, grid at my back I’m in the diagonals 
Evolving, shiv in his back he shatter the manacles 
Man down, damnit can he manage the variables 
Manually override these overnight Emmanuels
Man, m-m-m-mayday, it’s the tapering of the straightaway
The making of a bedlamite, the straightening of the theta wave 
Working on a way to cure this sudden inexplicable 
Urgency to secure a sure-shot-shaped paperweight 
Pay the man, simultaneously in survival mode 
And looking like a hundred violations of the firecode 
Designed to die alone moments out the styrofoam
But not before these no names go the way of the dial tone, don’t

Staring at the sun until one of us blinks
When it does I’m running for the tunnels, hater blood in the Krink
Bloody hell, everyday I wake and one-up a king
Whose kingdom come to refer to me as “you wonderful thing”
One of the filthiest fish in the azure
Cut a political actor to particulate matter
Should it present as a pattern put the pig out to pasture
This ain’t that action figure in the original package, we in the shit with the taggers Bastards and bullies and baddies, and bitches and bummers 
Who shuffle out of the shadows with the limbs of another
Trapjaw’s head, Stay-Puffed arms and the cape of Vader
Over rollerblading Barbie with a bow from Hank the Ranger
Bullseyein’ danger, I’m a surgeon at 70 yards
As long as the target is not a Snellen chart
Hello from some hell and back to autograph an x-mark 
Leaving the treasure for the next man, the best part, don’t

Don’t show up at the get down talking that holy as if you ain’t hell-bound
Similarly don’t show up at the get up, talking that hellish 
As if you ain’t blessed up, just just don’t

I‘m on a higher kinda of prowess
I’m somewhere in the melee while I’m somewhere doing tai chi on a mountain
Only out of bed to pick the lock and smuggle in his Visigoths
Who’d love to redesign the hillside little box by little box
Or get these businesses to page a stranger on they intercoms
The kind that sound real ‘till you realize they did you wrong
Oh this is definitely checkers I don’t play chess
I sack a city, atlases actually weigh less
After, mermaid leather in the truck
It’s only in poor taste if you ain’t never been the one
Pickle the hand of whoever signal his mans
That’s a 5-wick candle and a bib in the sand 
My advice is: don’t approach him whether sobbing in the copy room
Or eating hot pretzels in the mezzanine at Nas and Wu 
Or at the hobby shop with Hanni copping model glue
Or meeting Bobby at the Bronx zoo, don’t

Don’t show up at the get down talking that holy as if you ain’t hell-bound
Similarly don’t show up at the get up, talking that hellish 
As if you ain’t blessed up, just just don’t

Jak Tripper x Aloeight - Toadmilk 2 (2025)


Every true hip hop head should have this gem in their collection. A sound that not only defies normalcy, but also gives you high level wordplay, rhyme styles, schemes and beats that keep the speakers knocking. Jak Tripper and Aloeight connect with M25 to bring you the highly anticipated follow up to the classic album Toadmilk, Toadmilk 2. A intricate joust between lyricism and neck breaking beats. Jak Tripper gives you gritty, aggressive, high level wordplay while Aloeights beats paint murky soundscapes, filled with heavy drums and obscure instruments, both styles fit perfect. Toadmilk 2 features some heavy hitters, MCs like Vega7 the Ronin, Cambatta, Twisted Insane, Wakizashi Jabberwockyz, Hus KingPin, Blu and eLZhi. Toadmilk 2 is a clear sign that this raw hip hop shit is in full force!

AMC (of Wildstyle) - The RAGE CAGE (The 90's Mixtape) (2025)


This project is something I put together over a week last May when I didn’t have a laptop and needed something to do. When looking for options, I stumbled on a folder (on a OLD laptop) of beats I made in the 90s for other MCs who never laid vocals to them. I was originally going to do an instrumental release of those beats, but since I needed something to do, I decided to time travel back to that time and write a full mixtape capturing and celebrating that time.

The RAGE CAGE was my home studio circa 1986-1995, and this is mixtape showcasing the sound of that era. In short, it’s a bunch of battle rhymes, along with some abstraction, a few personal reflections, a teasing of some Vocal Violence (what I called my primary style back then), an Electro Vocoder Jam, a Hip House track, and lots of celebration and shout outs of people, places and things I remember about the Lake County Hip Hop scene circa 1986-1995.

For many, many years I have wanted to do either a documentary or write a book to document the Lake County scene (1986-1995) but have hit so many walls getting people to participate or tell me their stories, or get me the other tools I need to make it possible. I’m hoping this will encourage people to get on board…

Ilkay C. & Skinny Bonez Tha Godfatha - Higher Ground (2025)


Dutch producer Skinny Bonez Tha Godfatha links up with German-Turkish MC Ilkay C. (who currently lives in Switzerland).

Ilkay C. is an MC who, besides not being from the UK/USA, raps in fluent English and takes inspiration from artists like Big Pun.

Underground hip hop fans can know him from his work with heavyweights like Vinnie Paz, Blaq Poet, R.A. The Rugged Man and turkish heavyweight Sayedar!
