Underground Fossils was an indie rap focused blog run by myself (Dimxsk) and by Trylemma, who passed August 3rd, 2024 from liver failure of unknown origin at the age of 34. We mostly posted week or twice weekly, the bulk of which were rare rips we made, found on old blogs, he acquired through his insanely broad connection to the scene, etc. We did all we could to make sure we didn't post stuff that (1) You could still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You could reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You could download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asked us not to for any reason. Being involved in this blog was some of the most fun I ever had, even if at times it was time consuming, challenging or intimidating (having a readership). It was the product of one of the best friendships I've ever had. If I could say one last thing, it's to encourage all of you: if you have the time and desire, make your own UGF. Find a friend who loves this shit like you do and build it together. It will bring you incredible joy, enhance your connection to this amazing community, and change your life in unexpected and exciting ways. I know it did mine. Love you all!

New Music: Ruby Yacht - 37 Gems





The Ruby Yacht formed voltron last Friday with album "37 Gems" and wowee do things sound good. 

Headed by the artist formerly known as milo, and currently known as R.A.P. Ferreira, the likes of Safari Al, Pink Navel, SB The Moor, Kenny Segal, Eldon, and Elucid come together for the first official Ruby Yacht crew project. The album, which is produced in-house, showcases both the uniqueness of the, mainly, young artists as well as their chemistry with one another. The body of the album's rhymes are handled by Ferreira (who, along with SB, still shines the brightest,) Safari Al, Pink Navel, Eldon (a welcomed British addition,) and SB The Moor, each of whom has a distinctive voice and style of writing. Hopefully this will get some milo fans to check out the extensive back catalogues of the other members before the next bigger Ruby Yacht project drops (which it is set to.) 

Stream/Cop the album below and be sure to check R.A.P. Ferreira live on an upcoming tour date (the only place you'll be able to buy the first R.A.P. Ferreira project - "The Truly Ancient And Original Lefthanded Styles Of The Hoodwinkers and Penny Pinchers"!)
