ONE WAY TV | D'LYFA - ORION NEBULA Video

D'lyfa Reilly is back with this stunning visual for Orion Nebula. Not only is this the most relaxing track to ever come out of Manchester it is also one of my all time favourite tracks off one of my all time favourite releases ever. About time it got a video and I'v not been let down. #redIQniverse

whYJay - WHOSWHYJAY? Mixtape

whYJay is one of my favourite spitters from Manchester right now, it seems like every week he's either realising a video, doing a freestyle, jumping on a set or performing live, and now his much anticipated mix-tape WHOSWHYJAY? is finally out now for free download. This is a collection of some real tracks that cover intelligent subjects rather than the usual guns and bitches that seem to be what every MC these days seem to think people want to hear. I think my favourite track on the mix-tape has to either Balance or Myself, whYJay is breath of fresh air in a slightly stale scene right now with his unique flow and hard lyrics he is defiantly the difference between a YouTube Mc and an artist, whichis good since most people seem to have forgotten the difference. Not to mention this mix-tape has features from the likes of Predz, CDot, Sin Seer and Mr Meening, as well as producers such as Dirtklod, Riddle and Katapullt. This is defiantly going to be on regular rotation on my iPod for the next six months. Go get it now!

Nutty - Ft. whYJay, Dorris & Predz (Prod. By Dirtklod)

The Spotworks Recordings gang have been putting out some utter bangers right about now, what with Greef and Sin Seer releasing On Another Beat earlier this month and the North Manny link up North of The Compass last month, and now with Nutty featuring whYjay, Dorris and Predz. The beat is pure madness made simply to skank to while out of your mind! As if that wasn't enough three of Manchester's top Grime Mcs are spraying some of their best lyrics I'v heard in a while. This track is quite honestly my favourite thing since Snoopy and Anoyed put out Devil in My Mind. Not to mention the insane video to accompany it is a who's who of recording artists at Spotworks. Produced by the one and only Dirtklod.

Tap D - Tapped and What

From beginning to end Manchester's Tap D's stunning new release "Tapped and What" is an utter Hip Hop classic with features from the likes of Skanka, Geko, Ideal and more. After my first spin of "Tapped and What" my first impressions were that Tap D could fully push through to the mainstream with a deep flow filled with lyrics so hard they leave your ears feeling like you'v just been ten rounds with Tyson. The first "Hands on Deck" is an explosive way to start an album, considering its bodying fellow Manchester MC and Don't Flop organiser Chronicle.Hands on Deck is swiftly followed by the epic future Hip Hop anthem How You Feel, this track could easily be found in the mainstream with its easy to listen beat yet hood lyrics that can almost never be predicted! The levels are kept high through out "Tapped and What" with stand out tracks like Life In The Ghetto, Big Shit Ft. Skanka, My G Ft. Geko & Skanka and Run The Roads Ft. Skanka, but don't be fooled, each tracks could stand on its own as a single release. If he keeps putting out release like this Tap D is going to be the name on everyone's lips.

D'Lyfa Reilly - Cloud Rhyme

The Manchester lyrical master known as D'Lyfa Reilly is back with his musical masterpiece Cloud Rhyme. This seven track release is a intense journey into the mind of D'Lyfa from the beginning track "Nimbus Proem" featuring fellow Red IQ member C Aye Monk, to "FreeDumb" which is an eye opening listen which opens several truths and also shows off D'Lyfa's lyrical skill whit its quick pace flow and intelligent bars. Of course there's a track for the blazers out there, "Amsterdamnesia" is a clever track playing on all the strains of bud and the many ways you can get lifted. For me the personal highlight of Cloud Rhyme is "Orion Nebula" which is an absolute Hip Hop anthem!
With Cloud Rhyme only costing £1 for a download I highly suggest downloading it, then sit back light a reef and let the Red IQniverse take you to a better place

Frenzy - Viiper Diss / Reply

Jheeze and I though the Viiper track was hard but this is evil as fuck! This is a very interesting clash, a Hip Hop Mc and a Grime Mc both going toe to tow. I think this one is going to hard to judge, so I'm not even going to try but all I'll say is I said Frenzy needed something hard to send back and he achieved just that!

C4 The Polymath - Project MK Ultra E​.​P

If you don't know who Manchester's C4 The Polymath is then the government must be wining. This ultra-political Hip Hop Mc is a breath of fresh air in a vastly stale world of Brostep and auto-tuned boy bands. Project MK Ultra is his latest offering and with his hard hitting flow and brutally truthful lyrics C4 The Polymath is one of the kings right now in the Manchester scene right now. Having proven he's as versatile as he is clever, by featuring on all manner of tracks including an all star Grime track with the likes of Dorris, LK, Sin-Seer, Xtra and Lady Ice, he has shown his influence stretches all the way across the pond since the mighty Diabolic has done a monster of track with him entitled Politricks Pt.II, this track is worth your money on its own let alone the other tracks. Cold World with Manchester's hardiest younger Inflict is another highlight along with Love and Money with paints a picture most of us can relate to. Rotten Apples Freestyle featuring again Inflict as well as Sin-Seer is by far one of my favourite freestyles I'v heard in a long time! I could listen to Project MK Ultra E.P. over and over and over and over again.
