CD-BlacksheepA

Constant Deviants release their fourth studio album Avant Garde on 12th May 2015, and the UK’s online publication Blacksheep Magazine have just published their review, affording the release a 4 star rating.

The veteran duo of Baltimore emcee M.I. and New Jersey producer DJ Cutt have been prolific over the past few years since the setting up of their own Six2Six Records imprint, with a string of releases on vinyl, CD and digital formats. Their early releases “Competition Catch Speed Knots” and “Can’t Stop” date back to the 1990’s and led to a time in the Major sector working with Arista and Roc-A-Fella records before returning to the independent fold since 2009.

Their musical evolution still retains the classic hallmarks of hip hop’s Golden Era as is reflected in Blacksheep writer Andrew Kay’s review which can be read HERE

Taken from the new album, their most recent official video release was for the track “Breathin'”

You can connect with Constant Deviants online, via twitter @Cnstnt_Dvnts & @Six2SixShift and on Facebook “ConstantDeviantsMusic“.

Look out for extensive international media coverage of this release in the weeks and months ahead, including an appearance by M.I. on the new “Rapping with Leiberman” online video show on Wednesday 8th April. Hosted by Sirius FM’s Jon Leiberman, the new show streams live on Youtube, Google Hangouts and EasyJoe.com at 7pm EST every Wednesday. His guests this week include Bishop Lamont

TimingIsEverything-DeadEndHipHop

4 days to go until the release of the debut album by Detroit’s MC Kid Vishis on Tuesday 22nd July 2014.

Produced by Mr Porter (Shady / D12), Chase Moore (Hippie Sabotage), New Jersey’s Nemisis and Canada’s Nick Zervos, “Timing is Everything” will be available worldwide on digital & physical CD formats, and autographed copies can be ordered from the label Seven 13 Entertainment now at www.seven13ent.com

It is also available for pre order now on iTunes & Amazon

Latest review comes from online publication Dead End Hip Hop based in the USA.

Writer Samuel Odunsi Jr puts the album in the context of the Detroit scene and the emergence of this artist over the years from releasing mixtapes as part of the “Sick Em” series, working with his elder brother Royce da 5’9″ and now stepping out in his own right with his first official studio album.

Unsurprisingly, props are given to Kid Vishis’ mic skills, concise rapier-like delivery and range of subject matter, notably in this case on the track Beautiful Day “anytime an MC takes the time out to drop some positive knowledge should be an A grade in everyone’s book.“. Read the full review HERE

Kid Vishis has had a busy time with media recently, the results of which you will see over the coming weeks, and is also in the middle of planning tours of Canada, the UK & Europe while working on his follow up sophomore album.

TimingIsEverything-Rawroots

The long awaited debut album “Timing is Everything” by Detroit’s Kid Vishis (younger brother of Royce da 5 9) releases 22nd July on Seven 13 Entertainment.

One of Michigan’s most highly rated emerging rappers is no novice, having toured throughout the United States, Europe & the UK, produced a series of “Sick ‘EM” mixtapes since 2007 and featured on several of his brother’s albums and also worked with Crooked I’s fam Horse Shoe Gang.

He draws his influences from legendary lyricists down the years, and as debuts go, it’s a bold move that throughout the album he showcases his own mic skills with only one feature appearing on the track “Coward” – appropriately enough from his older brother

Production is courtesy of Shady’s Mr Porter, Chase Moore (Hippie Sabotage), Nemisis and Canada’s Nick Zervos

Unsurprisingly there’s been much international media interest in the release, and British online Rawroots have just featured the release HERE

Expect to see a lot of coverage on the album over the summer which can be pre-ordered at www.seven13ent.com
