Some might find irony in World Around Records and Zilla Rocca's release of an EP named "Bad Weather Classic" on what has turned out to be the nicest day in months, but as for me I've been too busy hitting rewind on the lead single to come up with an appropriately ironic bon mot. Over a beat from producer Face One, Zilla, Mally and Curly Castro spit rhymes hot enough to melt the ice and snow that's accumulated from the previous month's bad weather. It's destined to be a classic regardless of what the temperature outside happens to be. Check it out:

You can grab the full EP, which also features a great cut from Small Pro, for free over at World Around Records.

But we're not done yet! Zilla and Castro recently recorded a set of 5 O'Clock Shadowboxers material backed by a live band for XPN, Philly's NPR affiliate. XPN has made all of the recordings available for free over here. Here's one of the live songs, which includes a tribute of sorts to Biggie's Story To Tell:
