IQ's last full-length release was IQ Test (Bandcamp). "I started experimenting with some faster trap beats, came up with a nice little track I was feelin and started spittin some battle type rhymes on it," IQ says about the new single. "I think it's a nice little intro to what I'm about to do."

Los Angeles emcee/producer IQ presents his new self-produced single "Everywhere I Go". IQ's last release was IQ Test (Bandcamp). "I'm releasing this single because I need to start somewhere and I have tons of rhymes that I plan to deliver to anyone who wants to hear them," IQ says about his new single. "I make my own beats, do my own mixing, and record my own vocals. I just started feeling the heat from this beat and decided to let people know how I feel about certain things and even how I got started, and then speed up the flow at the end a little bit Big L style."

Richmond, CA rapper Mani Draper presents the SLVTR Films-directed music video for "Blood In The Water" featuring and produced by Kevin Allen, formerly known as Erk Tha Jerk. "Blood In The Water" appears on Mercy, Mani's new album featuring Locksmith, GQ and Emily McLean as well as production from DJ Flow, Sndtrak and Zenan of ODS. The video's animation was handled by Bay Area art collective The Illuminaries. Mani has several albums under his belt including The Unauthorized Biography of Ella Mae, Last Marauder and RAWK(Mani on Spotify) and has collaborated with Jake One and Terrace Martin. Mani has composed original music for Tommy Hilfiger, Adidas and Calvin Klein, and was the narrative voice on IAMSU's Sincerely Yours album. Mani co-founded the Brave Area collective and partnered with Bay Area boutique label At The Ave Records in 2017. Mani says his new single was "born out of a conversation centered around legacy. All of my successful creative friends (Kevin Allen specifically) are family men and women. When I was able to slow down and process that, it was inspiring to sort of recognize that the stakes are always higher for them. So they dig a little deeper and push a little further than most and ultimately spawn something impactful every time out.” Mercy is out now on At The Ave.

Bay Area, California rapper and Distant Relatives member Vocab Slick presents the William Rushton-directed music video for “That Money”, Vocab's new single produced by HG Beats and co-produced by Starski. The new clip comes on the heels of visuals for "Highway", Vocab's collaboration record with DJ True Justice and Z-Man (watch), and "Flying" (watch). Releasing his debut solo album Lyrically Conscious in 2003 following several stints in jail, Vocab formed the group Distant Relatives with his childhood friend Emotionall and rapper Maynee (stream "Celebrate" featuring The Grouch and Eligh). Emotionall was subsequently deported to Mexico, and Maynee passed away in 2014, one year after Vocab's mother passed and his daughter was born. Vocab bounced back with 2014's Somethin' Slick EP (Soundcloud), followed by the Issues & Episodesfull-length (stream "Priceless" featuring Opio of Souls of Mischief). Vocab co-founded the Slap Frost Tour, which grew into an annual festival featuring the likes of Planet Asia, Locksmith, and Chino XL. Vocab recently toured with Tha Alkaholiks and Gavlyn following the release of his EP The Day After Yesterday(stream "Pusha" featuring Planet Asia). ''I just wanted to write a song for working class people," Vocab says. "There is a whole other side to the get money mentality that a lot of artists don't address. It doesn't always have to be duffel bag boys and fancy cars. I come from a back ground where my parents got up every morning and went and clocked in at a 9-5 job. I wanted to shed some light on that because I feel like were getting to a point in Hip Hop where the majority of the message conveyed is you have to have some kind of dope hustle to get ahead and that's not always the case. If that's your thing by all means get your money. On the other side though it's ok to have a ''real'' job if that's what puts food on your table and takes care of your family. Salute to all the grinders."
