"To Live Another Day" by Warren B. (Rap Artist from Texas(TX))

The newest release from Warren B. is "To Live Another Day" and is an album comprised of hard hitting and high energy Hip-Hop/Rap songs over which Warren B., along with a handful of guests, skillfully lay down their lyrics. "We At War (feat. Tha Dawn & B-shad)" has a consistent building low end and clapping snare that combine to make for a truly bangin' beat, over which we hear an easy flowing Rap rhyme. "Put'em Up (feat. Willie James)" is a raucous number with intense lyrics along with a consistent escalating sound to the beat. "Southwest (feat. B-shad)" is more of a fun number with a bouncing, southern-style, beat to it. This is an album for those who appreciate consistently spirited Hip-Hop/Rap beats and relatively fierce lyrics. Fans of Scarface would thoroughly enjoy the selection of songs on the album "To Live Another Day."

"Stone Biscuit" by Jubal Kane (Blues Artist from North Carolina(NC))

The latest release from Jubal Kane is "Stone Biscuit" and is a double album with the first disc being a collection of raw live recordings of the band playing their brand of thick and hearty Blues/Rock, and the second disc contains cover songs as well as a couple of bonus recordings. "Heavy Load" is a high tempo blues song with a great shuffling sound to it, in which we hear how the harmonica can really rock out. "Long Road" is a slower paced number with a hefty Blues groove to it. In the song "Tight" we might have the best use of the Blues harmonica as a leading instrument, as it interplays with the vocalist with a gritty and wide sound. This is an album filled with a plethora of passionate live Blues/Rock songs, with a heavy emphasis on the soulful harmonica. If you are a fan of Blues Traveler then you would really enjoy the compositions on "Stone Biscuit" by Jubal Kane.
