Cassie – Must Be Love

I Am Kane — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:47:53 +0000

Love it when you hear a track and straight away your thinking… dam!!

Had this on promo since about mid April and now the video for this is about to drop. Directed by Bernard Gourley, a dark sexy smouldering scene, involving ice and Cassie (that sounds good ). The track is somewhat reminiscent of classic Bad Boy from the 90’s all thats missing is cold ass verse from Big (Rip). Produced by duo Bryan Michael Cox & Mario Winans, this is cassie’s first single from her “Electro Love” album dropping in the next few weeks.

But for now check this tribute to Dilla……

We Love NY – “And Crispy Leaves Always Seem To Blow My Way”

I Am Kane — Thu, 14 May 2009 18:57:36 +0000

At last….. A new track from Lady Ny!! I been starved of material from this girl since Split Endz Vol II came out few years back now. Really cant remember where i heard “Fire” in the first place, but straight away i was hooked on this girl . A UK Female vocalist with some real talent and two very nice independant albums/mixtapes under her belt.

She has worked with alot of grime artists in the past , featuring on one of my all time favorite Uk mixtape/albums “Eye Of The Tiger Vol 1″ (which of im still waiting on vol 2 STANZA!!!!) If you actually never heard Eye Of The Tiger Vol 1, shame and go cop NOW!

Really gets my back up when people like this aint signed and pushed to there full potential, she’s got a great voice and has proved her versatility by working with varied producers/artists from the likes of Wiley, Plan B, Sincere, Jonny Rock stars and more recently the Count and Sinden . This latest track Dangerous is kinda Uk Funky, not a road i expected her to go down at all but well produced and great vocals from her as expected.

Personally its still all about “Falling Again” the vocal to Wookies Gallium. Ny get signed ,get out there and do us proud.

Uk Goin On Hard!!

Got to say I’m loving this track and the video aint turned out to bad either, i’d say a good few pound notes was spent! Great choice to have Doneo feature on it as well because it seems that boy can do no wrong. One of his Party Hard vids on youtube has hit the 350000 mark now that’s some serious viewage baby!!! That funky drummer break just sounds so good in a club as well, mainly because nobody has used breaks like that in this way since the early jungle days. This is set to be Bizzle’s 1st single from his 3rd studio album out in Sept 2009. POW Indeed!!!

Kanye West LVs And Autotune Vol 2

I Am Kane — Wed, 29 Apr 2009 02:57:20 +0000

If ya aint already come across this today, you have now. Volume two in his LVs and Autotune mixtape series features some of his finest cuts of late , as well as some older joints. Caught my eye just simply cos of the dope artwork , the covers so dam cool!! cooler than kanye? well the guy seems to be goin off the rails a bit recently but loss of a mum and a spilt from a fiancee would tip any average guy over the edge. After 808’s and heartbreaks im still waiting for a college dropout style album from him and after some of his recent productions goin back to basics we wait with baited breath……..download this and jam……..

Poke Her Face??

I Am Kane — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 02:29:44 +0000

Would ya? Even if she is a tad nuts? Well regardless Cudi , Kanye and common have. Teaming up on this little number for a take on Lady Gaga’s Poker Face. Well the title says it all really…. Featuring cuts from A Trak , 2 superb verse’s from Cudi and Common, and the best verse from Kanye ive heard in a while. Been enjoying the vibe on this one all week. Surprisingly i found the sample from Gaga quite enjoyable , apparently they sampled her from a live recording and to be honest she sounds quite dope on it !!
