Evidence - Unlearning Vol. 1 (2021)
In March 2020, right as the whole world was entering into a transitional phase, Evidence released a single titled “Unlearning”. Now, a year later, Evidence launches the campaign for his upcoming album, Unlearning Vol. 1, picking up where the single of the same name left off, and going beyond.
Throughout his career, Evidence has always been adept at both staying true to his roots and evolving as he grows and learns from life experiences, including recognizing when the time comes to unlearn. During the campaign for his last album, Weather or Not (2018), he expressed a desire to close the chapter on the weather-related theme that had been a staple of his solo career to that point. Unlearning Vol. 1 not only sees that vision come to life, but shines brilliantly in the process.
Unlearning Vol. 1 pairs Evidence’s own production with works from The Alchemist, Nottz, Sebb Bash, Animoss, Mr. Green, V Don, Khrysis, Daringer and EARDRUM (QThree). This highlights perhaps an undervalued skill of Ev’s—his ability to collaborate with a multitude of producers on a project, while still creating an album with a cohesion and consistency rarely found in such extensive collaboration. While the album’s musical soundscape sets the scene, it's Ev’s gift for relatable yet inventively clever writing that really paints the picture, continually pulling the listener in. That said, a small but powerful cast of guest appearances also decorate the landscape, courtesy of stellar performances from Boldy James, Conway The Machine, Fly Anakin, Navy Blue, and Murkage Dave.
Unlearning Vol. 1 embodies the sound and feeling of pure artistic expression, capturing a moment in time where marketability, album sales & streaming potential, and the desire to please anyone other than the artist themselves, are all just an afterthought. As one could expect, such freedoms allowed Evidence to tap into something special that sounds engaging and unique, and also remains true to his foundation. In essence, Unlearning Vol. 1 finds Evidence at yet another creative peak, creating a listening experience poised to catch the attention of new listeners while strengthening his core fanbase.

Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra - Cult Theatre (2021)
Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra’s debut collaborative album, Cult Theatre, is a celebration of surreal, grimy hip-hop that comes to life through visually provocative lyrics, experimental songwriting, and equally chilling and booming production. The entire record is produced by longtime collaborator Pyramid Tapes, the New Orleans beatsmith who surrounds the emcees with smoky, macabre instrumentals.
When Calig came up with the idea for the project, Cult Theatre just clicked because he heard the album as “a soundtrack to an old grindhouse-type film from a projector screen.” Moemaw knew they had the right name, too: “I thought it was perfect since we’re both so visual with our bars and the album has a non-stop cohesive feel to it, like a movie, and the vibe is dark and psychedelic in typical ‘cult’ fashion.”
That vibe is apparent from the jump as the two emcees get underway on the opening track, “A New Abyss,” a sinister jaunt through “broken beer bottle glass and microphone boom bits.” Moemaw and Calig keep the pace on the ensuing eight cuts that include a woozy back-and-forth banger on “Pass the Vodka” and a dream collaboration with Lord Goat (fka Goretex of Non Phixion) on “Witches Sabbath.”
Another instant standout is “Future Dystopia,” which Calig calls his favorite track. “Moemaw blacks out on that verse and hook,” he explains. “Plus I think it summarizes the album pretty well.” It’s actually that shared reverence for one another’s craft that makes Cult Theatre such a success. Moemaw and Calig don’t only sound great together on the record; they’re also quick to praise the other with rich details that only two close collaborators could really understand. And with Cult Theatre sounding this damn good, we can only hope that they bless the hip-hop community with more music in the future.

ThiNXx - Witches LP (Official Music Video) (2020)
“Witches” is the all new full length instrumental diy video album from Johannesburg Hip Hop artist ThiNXx available July 31st, 2020 on all digital platforms.
It’s the culmination of around 5 years of catch-as-catch-can productions, vintage movie footage mixed audio-visualization, heavy effects throughout and a chilling hypnotic undertone.
This is a collection of many hours of hard work and frustration that seems to have paid off quite beautifully in the end. This end result was not foreseen beforehand and rather evolved as a result of the music and attempt to achieve something special. Thanks to the vast wealth of archived, long forgotten footage available now due to the artists and producers of the past. As long as the cycle continues we all live on forever.
This album quite simply is about witches. This is the tale of a witch.
