Statitk Selektah & Termanology, “Shining”

I was on the Smoking Section the other day, and to my surprise, Statik Selektah & Termanology dropped their debut single from their forthcoming sophomore LP 2012. Their debut album, 1982, was one of my favorite albums of 2010, and I still constantly give it spins; Statik’s beats are crazy, and Term’s rhymes are as potent as the dopest red bud out there. These guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite tandems, and “Shining” further solidifies that status; Stat uses a myriad of samples to concoct a beautiful beat, and Termanology does his thing and leaves the mic battered and bruised.

Video: Skyzoo, “Could’ve Struck the Lotto”

I was on Twitter yesterday when I noticed that Skyzoo was getting a lot of tweets about a new video; it turns out that everyone was buzzing about the visuals for the track “Could’ve Struck the Lotto” from his most recent outing The Great Debater. In my opinion, Skyzoo is one of the top three emcees in the game right now. The way he writes his material is incredible; I love having to go back and peruse through his albums so I can delve further and solidify my understanding of what’s being said. Do yourself a favor and check out this top tier lyricist.

Hip-Hop Quotable: “All that we In Search Of… is to Fly or Die/so to have you Seeing Sounds that’s inside the Sky/is Nothing I suppose/so if I was alone/them sounds that you seein’ is all that I really know”

Many of you might have wondered… “What the hell happened to Mind Inversion”? Well, we don’t really have an exact answer for that; it’s really a culmination of things from school to legal issues, but we can assure you that we are going to be back and better than ever. We will have the usual daily music news that you came to love from Mind Inversion, but you will also be getting concert reviews and weekly columns. We hope that the hiatus we’ve taken hasn’t completely lost all of our followers, and we can assure you that 2012 is going to be the best year Mind Inversion has had yet.

Thank You,

The Mind Inversion Team
