West coast hip hop group Horseshoe Gang release their fourth official studio album “Anti-Trap Music” on Friday April 29th 2016. Available to buy on iTunes HERE and CD’s from the label HERE

As expected from the younger brothers of KXNG Crooked, it’s a showcase of superior rhymes and wordplay throughout addressing a diverse range of subjects. Targets in the sights of these lyrical marksmen are poverty and aspirations, police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement, and the pain incurred by the loss of those closest. They also provide a tribute to the legends of hip hop while pulling no punches with their take on the state of rap music today.

Their technical prowess combined with intelligent approach has gained much media attention, and seen them feature in a host of local, national and international publications in the past few months.

Production credits include Grammy Award winners Pitchshifters, KXNG Crooked and COB affiliates Jonathan Elkaer, DJ E.D.D.E.H. and Tabu

Omerta-HHK

A year after releasing their highly acclaimed album “Avant Garde”, duo emcee M.I. and DJ Cutt, aka Constant Deviants, return with “Omerta” which drops 28th June on Six2Six Records

Their natural instinct for creativity has developed into the world of movie making in recent years, and they have drawn from their Italian and Russian roots to adopt the roles of Luciano & Lansky in the new themed concept album.

HHK Mag caught up with them early as part of their ongoing “25 Facts” series, where the group discuss more the thinking behind the concept, reveal it is the first time for many years they recorded together in the same studio simultaneously, and perhaps it is due to that extra energy that they have created what they believe to be their best work to date.
