New Music: Blowed Old and New: Volume 10 - Brain Damage and AllCityJimmy - DRFTR

     


Aside from Ngafsh's latest terrific project, a couple other Blowedians have blessed us recently with new albums.

First is OG Volume 10's new one, "Brain Damage." The Pistolgrip Pump king has been releasing weird compilations over the past couple of years, but this one, put out by The Order Label and Alpha Pup, is his first real proper album release in well over a decade. The album is interlaced with mock-interview interludes which do get a bit tedious, but the album's meat and potatoes are more than worth a listen, with Volume 10's energy and presence on the mic being as strong as ever. 

We also recently got a surprise drop from AllCityJimmy, formerly known as Nocando (aka my favorite rapper) - "DRFTR." The 7 track project technically consists of tracks that got cut from an upcoming release, but there's really no filler to be found here. Name change or not, Jimmy's newfound dark and moody song-writing and delivery is really top notch. The standout track is easily "Mobbin" where Jimmy connects with the older Blowed vets and delivers a killer posse cut alongside Rifleman, Mister CR, and Myka 9.
