 Most people would need to hold a séance to invoke the spirits of two of America's most notorious mobsters, but all rapper
M.I. and producer DJ Cutt (collectively known as Constant
Deviants) needed was some studio time.
More... Haka Beats is a producer from Ladbroke Grove in West London. He has recently dropped his
Man On The Moon EP and has secured spots from some of the dopest in the UK game. In order to find out more, Nikhil Sharma caught up with him to find out about his background, his new EP and ... More... If Horseshoe Gang were standing for election, their manifesto would be simple: make
Hip Hop great again by keeping trap music out. Any floating voters would soon be won over after the gang play their trump card - new album Anti-Trap Music.
More... New Jersey’s 050 Boyz, consisting of rappers Riq da Kid, Tru Trilla and Prince AK, have been making moves in New Jersey's underground scene over the past couple of decades, whether as solo artists or in local collaborations, making them undisputable veterans in the field of pure, authentic hip-hop.
More... There's truly few artists out there who possess the formidability to see their careers survive through the unpredictability of the past fifteen years in the music industry, however Constant Deviants are a prime example of what real dexterity and determination can achieve. The New Jersey and Baltimore hip-hop duo of lyricist M.I. and producer DJ CuttMore...  DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist answer some questions about their Renegades Of Rhythm 2015 vinyl-only UK tour, which honours Afrika Bambaataa's influence on hip-hop's beginnings.
More... It certainly takes something special to pave a path to success in the current hip-hop climate.

![George Fields - Beyond Realm LP [Under the Sun]](https://www.britishhiphop.co.uk/images/stories/george_fields/george_fields-beyond_realm-frontpage.jpg "George Fields - Beyond Realm LP [Under the Sun]") To say George delivered the goods with this album is an understatement. Continuing where
'From the Sticks' left off, he takes us on a cosmic journey, from the dreamy countryside of Dorset and into the stratosphere and the unexplored universe. The soundscapes he creates have both an originality and a familiarity to them -perhaps the key to his magical powers, alongside his fastidious attention to detail and quality control
- which turns the album from a collection of individual pieces into a unified theory of George's essentially 90s Hip Hop sound.

![The Summit - Nocturnes LP [Soundweight]](https://www.britishhiphop.co.uk/images/stories/the_summit/the_summit-nocturnes-frontpage.jpg "The Summit - Nocturnes LP [Soundweight]") The Summit aka DJ Drinks is a UK producer known to a few for the quality of his productions, and epitomizing the 90s jazzy boombap sound that is currently enjoying a mini renaissance both in UK Hip Hop and globally. This album is somewhat of a hidden gem, stylishly presented and opening with a superb moogy-analogue thing, it then breaks into a series of lush beats with heavy drums, low filtered bass lines, vibes
and / or echoed voice samples etc.

![Chairman Maf - 1976 LP [Village Live]](https://www.britishhiphop.co.uk/images/stories/chairman_maf/chairman_maf-1976-frontpage.jpg "Chairman Maf - 1976 LP [Village Live]") Fortunately for the world, the Village Live label has released the Chairman Maf
album '1976' on wax, originally only available digitally (released in 2013). Maf has already gained quite a bit of attention from his other instrumental albums which each bring to life the musical universe inside his mind, drawn from an extremely diverse range of sounds and samples. Both
'Paint' and 'Soup' are great listens and '1976' also has many layered bangers.

![DJ Moe Love - Digging in the Tapes, I Ain't Dead Yet LP [King of the Beats]](https://www.britishhiphop.co.uk/images/stories/moe_love/dj_moe_love-digging_in_the_tapes_vol_1-i_aint_dead-yet-frontpage.jpg "DJ Moe Love - Digging in the Tapes, I Ain't Dead Yet LP [King of the Beats]") Moe Love from Ultramag is back with this selection of beats recorded between 1993-2015 made on the SP 12/1200. Moe's beats contain many of the elements you would expect keeping it simple throughout, with some easily recognizable samples (Skull Snaps etc.) and whole lot of other seriously ill dusty stuff he's chopped and looped for your listening pleasure.

Consisting of Ben 81 and One Boss, IMS have quickly gained a reputation as some of the most promising hip-hop producers the UK has to offer. A reputation earned from slew of well received releases over recent years, which have undoubtedly helped expose some of the finest emerging MC's in the UK right now.

![Sofa King And Big Toast - Live Beige MP3 [Revorg Records]](https://www.britishhiphop.co.uk/images/stories/tps_fam/sofa_king_and_big_toast-live_beige-frontpage.jpg "Sofa King And Big Toast - Live Beige MP3 [Revorg Records]") Rising underground British powerhouse Revorg Records kicked the start of the week directly in its face Monday, with a surprise banger from TPS Fam clansmen Big Toast, and producer Sofa King. Live Beige, taken from the upcoming EP "Save Yourself, Kill Them All" is, yet another, counter-cultural anthem from the Revorg camp – a delightful 'off you fuck' to the monotony of day to day life, and those who operate within it – set to Sofa King's thumping, rock-laden boom bap soundtrack.
