• 5 Active Underground Hip-Hop Supergroups That AREN'T Run The Jewels: Hail Mary Mallon, Deltron 3030 and More

    The Run The Jewels craze has gotten out of hand. The gun-and-fist logo is showing up everywhere, from Instagram to the cover of Howard The Duck comics. Seriously though: Supergroups among underground hip-hop groups aren't a new thing. Run The Jewels just happens to be the one that has gotten everyone's attention at every magazine. Deservedly so. But we advise you check out some other off-the-wall acts in existence (or hopefully still in existence) that are well worth your time.

  • 7 Solo Artists Who Have Performed Under Multiple Names

    As good as your music may be, one of the most important aspects of "making it" in the music business is simply getting your name out there, and making sure people remember it.

  • Action Bronson Shares 'Actin Crazy,' Details 'Mr. Wonderful' [LISTEN]

    Queens rapper Action Bronson has shared a new track titled "Actin Crazy" from his upcoming album "Mr. Wonderful," which you can check out below — you can check out the insane yet incredible cover art above. The track, produced by 40 and Omen, is a refreshing change of pace from the typical trap beats you hear in modern hip-hop, with a woozy, constantly swelling sound reminiscent of something that MF Doom or Madlib would have done on "Madvillainy" — in simpler terms, it is great. Though Bronson shared the tracklist for "Mr. Wonderful" late last month, "Pitchfork" reports that he has revealed the featured artists on the album, which include Chance the Rapper, Meyhem Lauren, Big Body Bes, Party Supplies and Chauncey Sherod. In addition, Mark Ronson, The Alchemist and Noah "40" Shebib are among those contributing production. You can check out Action Bronson's "Actin Crazy" here:

  • Flying Lotus Shares Doom Collaboration 'Masquatch' From 'Grand Theft Auto V' [LISTEN]

    Just yesterday, experimental hip-hop producer Flying Lotus shared a new track from the upcoming re-release of Grand Theft Auto V called "Medication Meditation," featuring Krayzie Bone. Today, FlyLo is back with "Masquatch," another weird yet incredible song from the soundtrack, featuring underground hip-hop visionary DOOM (a.k.a. MF DOOM, a.k.a. Viktor Vaughn, a.k.a. King Geedorah). The track's extremely brief running time (it comes it under two minutes) is reminiscent of DOOM's classic Madlib collaboration Madvillain, and its abstract, hookless production wouldn't sound out of place on their Madvillainy LP.
