Argentinian paisanos / emcee duo Los Chicos Criollos have returned with a new single this morning. “Verdadero Argentinos” (which literally translates to “true Argentinians”) according to the group’s statement “Verdadero Argentinos pays homage to Argentina’s original Indigenous peoples, whose cultures, histories, and existence were systematically erased, silenced, and marginalized through centuries of colonization and state violence.”
“Verdadero Argentinos” will also appear on Merca Musica the forthcoming Los Chicos Criollos LP to drop on November 10th (via Walking With Enoch Music). The entire album is produced by frequent collaborator RUEN and has already yielded two singles with accompanying music videos.
Studio album “Grateful is an Understatement” out now by Anthony Church with lead visual "Push Love"
Anthony Church - Push Love (ft. Jacobdeloakland)
Featured on the recently released album “Grateful Is An Understatement”, Anthony Church rolls out “Push Love” with Oakland, California artist Jacobdeloakland as the project's next single.
The track embodies one of the album's core messages, to push love in the face of hate, which is on full display in both Jacob’s vocals and of course Church’s melodic sound.
With a Boom Bap flare and ability to keep the core of its story at the forefront, “Push Love” has all the makings of an easy and smooth listen with the message to match a true Hip-Hop fan's sensibilities.
Anthony Church - Grateful is an Understatement
Grateful Is An Understatement offers a dose of reflection and is a testament to Church's perspective on life at the 10-year mark of his music journey.
The 12-track effort brings together 15 artists over entirely self-produced soundscapes, blending soulful boom bap textures with melodic, emotionally rich cuts. Every record creates space for honesty with stories about struggle, growth, faith, resilience, and the quiet victories we sometimes overlook.
Featuring appearances from the likes of Chester Watson, Jacobdeloakland, Heno. and more, the album feels cohesive yet diverse, unified by intentional decisions and a shared willingness to speak truth.
At its core, the project explores appreciation in its purest form. Gratitude for health. Gratitude for creativity. Gratitude for community. Gratitude for simply waking up and having another opportunity to try again. It acknowledges that even the smallest blessings, the ones we often take for granted, deserve recognition.
For Church himself, the album also served as real-time healing following a rough patch of personal events. Each beat crafted, each collaboration formed, and each story told became part of a path toward clarity. The result is a body of work that feels lived-in, thoughtful, and grounded.
Gillversablez is a new EP from the quartet of Gibby Stites, ILLtemper, VersaTilla and Gamblez Tha Lucky Bastard, and the title is the roster: Gibby, Versa and the Blez of Gamblez, fused into one word. Five tracks, all produced and engineered by Gibby Stites, out of New Jersey, and the download is free for anyone who enters zero at checkout. The crew logic has precedent in the catalog: Gibblez paired Gibby with Gamblez for ten tracks at the end of last year, and Gilltemper paired him with ILLtemper. Armageddon Now opens, Leave The Lights On closes, and in between sit Guttermouth, I'm Not Well and Dungeon Music.

Deadstock Pasta is the new single from Meyhem Lauren, taken from Table For One, an album of eleven tracks produced by Don D and the first release on White Truffle Records. The Queens native has spent two decades making the kind of rap that does not ask permission, and the new label name fits the brand: truffles, pasta, the good life rendered in street terms. The album title suggests solitude as a posture; the single title suggests what is cooking. This year the site has traced his name in passing, in the Action Bronson and T.F coverage; a single of his own puts him back at the center. The menu is short, the portions are honest. Deadstock only.

Never Feed The Apes is the new album from Starz Coleman, produced by Bad Lungz with the exception of the GLC Intro, which comes from Ched Beats. Guests include Reno Rx, Bad Lungz and 448 Brad, with a bonus track titled Smoking Mirrors attached to the announcement. The album continues the partnership behind The Guillotine, the record Coleman and Bad Lungz released together, and the French Connection project that followed. Coleman's name has been surfacing across the underground for a while, both behind the microphone and behind the camera: he directed videos for Eto and appears on Flee Lord's Everything I Never Said and His Imperial Majesty's The 7 Principles of Truth. Hawaii Stoney already has its video. The title works as a rule of engagement; the tracklist makes the cage explicit.

Murder House is out now, the new album from Swamp Thing and T.O. Huxtable, released through URBNET on the holiday the Toronto trio has claimed as its own. The ritual is documented: a dark record inspired by B movies every Halloween, with Timbuktu, Chokeules and Savilion on vocals and Huxtable on every beat, five albums into the partnership. The guests this time are a Canadian underground roll call: More Or Les, Jesse Dangerously, Ghettosocks and Bazooka Joe. The physical editions match the tradition: the LP on mystery color vinyl, a CD, and a double cassette collection that brings World War Swamp to cassette for the first time, in fluorescent orange and green. The Final Year video, covered here earlier this month, told the story; the album is the delivery. Granny Knuckles, Slap Slap, Golden Crab, and now Murder House. The streak continues, right on schedule.

Halloween Boogie Woogie is a seasonal release from NIC C, arriving as a video that runs one minute and forty four seconds, with 4-IZE on board as guest and Carlos Homs credited on keys. 4-IZE, born Tony Hayes III in Chicago and long based in Atlanta, grew up alongside Ludacris and appeared on Mouthing Off from the album Back For The First Time; he runs Soular Sausage Productions and has spent years building a reputation on daily freestyle releases. About NIC C himself the record is quiet: a name on a Halloween release, no visible catalog behind it. That makes the clip an introduction rather than a continuation, which, for a song about boogie woogie on the scariest night of the year, is a fitting way to arrive.

Hell Is The Mo(u)rning is the new album from Son Brave, out now: twenty one songs, produced entirely by the Baltimore artist himself. The title's parenthetical does the conceptual work, morning as mourning, and the rollout has been building all year: SUPA was the first single, Outta Control and Azimuth followed as a dual release. The guest list runs deep: Skyzoo, Graveyard Shifter, True God, Tommy Danger, Bishop Tha DJ, Ullnevano, Jadin Shropshire, Legendary Jay, Bari Lutalo, Shango $upreme and Lilliy Velvet. An album of this length, produced by its author, is a statement of control; every track serves the collection. For an independent artist, authorship is the whole argument, and Son Brave has been making it all year.

Monk Money is the new collaborative project from Thezes and Foule Monk, released through the DITCD.COM platform. The pairing has a history: Foule Monk produced a run of tracks on Thezes's The Chronicles, a marathon project at the start of the year. The label's release schedule around them reads like an underground roll call, with recent entries from Estee Nack, Tha God Fahim, The Bad Seed and Shade Cobain, Passport Rav and Sayzee. Nine tracks, and a working method the two have already proven. The title does the rest: monk money, the sound of a vow kept.

M4th3m4t1cs is a new single from The Holocaust, released under a billing that stacks his identities: The Holocaust, the West Coast Killa Beez and Warcloud share one cover. The track runs four minutes, arrives through Black Stone of Mecca with Blackball'd Productions and Northsteazor, and belongs to the West Coast Wu-Tang Killa Beez album project. The first name was built in the Black Knights, with features on The Swarm and contributions to RZA's Bobby Digital records; the second reinvented him, from Smuggling Booze in the Graveyard onward. He died in custody at 45. Releases have kept arriving under his various names, from Robot Tank: The Signs of Hells Winter II to the S.T.A.R. Pt. 2 single, and a new Holocaust song remains an event in the underground. The video is out as well.

Divine Ashes is a new single from Lord Goat and Sam Seed, out now through Hidden Hobby Records and pressed as a limited seven inch: one hundred copies across three colorways with hand numbered obi strips, the instrumental on the B side. Sam Seed produced; Will The Weirdo Wilson mixed and mastered. Lord Goat is the current name of Goretex, one of the founders of Non Phixion and a childhood friend of Ill Bill from the Glenwood Houses; he went on to run the Supercoven label and reunited with Bill on Watch The City Burn. Seed is a London based producer and DJ whose previous work with Lord Goat includes Freedom of Death and False Narrative. The single lands on the label run by Montener the Menace, whose own release arrives the same day.

Diggwutumsayn is the new video from Conway the Machine, out now alongside the song's full release. The clip runs under four minutes, directed by Marques Mosley, produced by Paula Ray, with Marcin Biegunajtys on cinematography and, in a credit that says something about the production, a camera robot operated by Manmade Studio. This year already brought The Long Kiss, the video that first named the coming projects I Heard You Paint Houses and Reject 3; Diggwutumsayn continues that rollout without announcing which of the two it belongs to. The Griselda co-founder remains on his own schedule: no album confirmation, no featured billing, just a title that sounds exactly like what it is, a question New York asks when the answer is already understood.
