Audio: Lupe Fiasco – “B.M.F.” (Building Minds Faster)

Yeah, Rick Ross’ “B.M.F.” is a huge anthem (and Jeezy’s too), but this joint is some well needed brainfood. “I think I’m Tupac…Bob Marley…Fela Kuti…Marcus Garvey!” Word.

Audio: RK9 “Arkaeology”

The homie and SQUARE BIZ fam member, RK9, is a dope rising talent here in Miami. My man gets it in on the turntables and in the studio. This project was released not too long ago and is something not to be ignored.

In his own words:

This EP represents a lot of my life. Without getting too much into it, it’s about aliens, gods, fantasy, spirituality and childhood. I sampled throughout from Final Fantasy, but the majority is my own sounds. All of the work was done with Reason + Recycle. It’s a true expression of myself so I’m not sure of an exact genre.. but let’s call it psychadelic rock + hip-hop electronica. And me, I’m Meek, holler at me: meekletron@gmail.com
