Free music from Atmosphere
That's right as well as relasing 3 Sad Clown EPs this year Slug & Ant have put together a free album for us as well. You can grab it at over at Rhymesayers
Love the Christmas Love!
Doooooom
MF Doom is notorious for lip syncing and generally just putting on bad shows. What do you expect from a villain in a mask? Earlier this year a lot of people were upset when they paid to see the super villain only to get a show from a hype man and some impostor wearing Dooms mask.
People did not learn to be wary of the villain so he has come back and done the same thing again. This time he has also apparently stolen all the money that was taken on the door. Obviously upset the club owner has sent an email out telling this story and offering up Dooms phone number so all us hip hop geeks can call him up and tell him what we think. Hit me up if you want the number!
I am loving this story it's great see some controversy in hip hop that is not about explicit lyrics. Here's hoping that the mad villain gives me more stories like this next year. Remember kids, never trust a villain!
On a more positive doom note one of my favourite hip hop crews Doomtree have just dropped their debut posse album. Taking a different route to the likes of Wu Tang each of the MC's have released an EP (all titled False Hopes) first before releasing the full crew album False Hopes
Some of you may be familiar with POS who had his album release on Rhymesayers. The crew is 11 deep and as well as POS includes MCs Sims, Dessa and Cecil Otter DJ/producers include MK Larada and Lazerbeak.
Dessa has quickly become my favourite female MCs. Her False Hopes EP earned many listens this year. Have a listen to Mineshaft and 551 from her myspace and tell me I am wrong.

Dancehall Hip Hop
Its been a quiet year for Oldominion but they have come through at the end of the year with Sleep and Zelly Rocks album Combination Locked. Blending dance hall beats from producer Smoke with rasta chants from Zelly and super fast raps from Sleep this album is a winner.
Sorry no free downloads this time but check out Zellys myspace page to witness some white man rasta chants.

Christmas time is here!
The Bomarr Monk of The Restiform Bodies is back with the third and final Wild Xmas Mix. You can grab it and the previous two mixes here.
He also has an free album of remixes and unreleased Bomarr projects available from the same site. It is titled Scraps and features vocals from Sole, Circus and Ellay Khule.
While I am on the topic of The Restiform Bodies I should mention that Telephone Jim Jesus album Anywhere Out of The Everything has really grown on me since I first heard it.
If you don't know Restiform Bodies they have some good youtube videos
