In an effort to catch up on all the music I've been sleeping on in 2013, here's a trio of videos that came out recently that are worthy of far more than the meager handful of sentences I'm about to use to describe them:


Curly Castro - They Call Me Castro

Head nodding political rap that's based more in reality than Illuminati fairy tales? You don't hear that too often in today's hip hop, but the first single off of the homie Curly Castro's new album Fidel suggests that it's more than possible. The album drops today, so put down your OWS picket sign for a minute and grab a copy!


Mally & The Sundance Kid - Winner

I can't think of a better endorsement for a rapper from Minnesota than getting Brother Ali to appear in your video and lip synch a lyric that you wrote. If you didn't know Mally was official already, consider Ali's guest appearance at 1:30 from the above video as confirmation of his ascendent career. And go cop Mally's album, The Last Great...!


Charlene Kaye featuring Kalae Nouveau - Woman Up

The estrogen levels on this one are significantly higher than what would normally be found on this site, but I feel like I've been neglecting the handful of female readers in my audience for far too long. She may have changed her name to Kalae Nouveau from Kalae Allday but she's still got skills behind the mic that surpass just about every female emcee out right now.
