The Indiecision Five at 5 is our attempt at sharing our musical tastes with you, and showcasing music from around the world. Each weekday at 5pm sharp, one NH7 writer or staffer will bring you five songs he/she is listening to on the day. Sub-editor Abhimanyu Meer got some in his bag for you today. 1. Ab-Soul ft. Mac Miller - 'The End Is Near' Soul's a true hip-hop poet. Remember his slam-style 'Ab-Soul's Outro' off good kid, m.A.A.d City ? That was a fine example of his slam-style [...]
While last week's playlist managed to keep things on the lighter side in preparation for the summer, this week's load is a bit heavier. Featuring a wide array of crafty wordsmiths and lyrical masterminds, the eight edition of the Hip-Hop Dojo is bound to get your head nodding and your mind racing. While I won't be elaborating on every track this week, please note that we do have quite a bit of diversity in this group. Most of the names on this list should be familiar to you already, but there are a few newcomers this time around too. [...]

I'd characterize my viewing of the television series Love and Hip Hop as a guilty pleasure, but I don't really enjoy watching the reality show. Yet I can't tear myself away from the shrill drama perpetuated by misguided rappers and their farcical love interests. The supposed real life of Joe Budden looks miserable. I've always liked the guy and I'm a big fan of his supergroup Slaughterhouse. Unfortunately, nothing on Budden's new hit album No Love Lost is remotely as good as the [...]
If Eminem's 8th studio album was going to be the soundtrack to your Memorial Day Weekend bad decisions this year, think again: Shady Records President Paul Rosenberg has revealed some details on the project to Billboard . While the album still lacks a title, Rosenberg stated that Em is "far into the process" of recording the album. Rosenberg also explained that Shady's been working on the follow-up to 20102s Recovery "for some time" now, and that Em has some performances coming up in Europe in August; perhaps the album [...]

And here I thought these year-end lists were done! Well, hey, it's OK to break the rules considering this one comes from none other than DJ Premier. His fan site has provided a rundown of Premo's 20 favorite albums of 2012 along with his picks for honorable mentions and the guide he uses to make his selections. While I don't agree with about half of his list, it's hard to argue with the other half. If you saw our list of the year's best albums , you'll understand which ones I'm talking about. [...]
Day 4 of our 4-day countdown of the best of the year. Part 1 (80-61) can be found here . Part 2 (60-41) can be found here . Part 3 (40-21) can be found here . To recap: AlbatRoss and I had 2 guidelines that we stuck to in compiling this list: 1) it had to be rap (meaning no R&B - Frank Ocean and Miguel had killer years but they won't be found on this list) and 2) one song per project on the list. We did this (including honorable mentions, of course) to make sure we brought a [...]

Is it really that time of year again? I have no idea where 2012 went; it seems like it was just January a few short months ago. In this seemingly short year, there has been a slew of superb releases - especially in the Hip-Hop realm. Like I've always said, making a year-end list is no simple task, and it's inevitable that someone (or a lot of people) will disagree with my choices; however, opinions are unique to each individual, and we are all entitled to our own. If you feel the need to voice your opinion, leave a comment [...]
Here's the Rik Cordero directed video for Slaughterhouse's "Goodbye" single. Video: Slaughterhouse – Goodbye is a post from: That Hip Hop Blog

Here's another visual off of Slaughterhouse's welcome to: OUR HOUSE album for a track titled "Goodbye". Wasn't exactly feeling this album at first but it has grown in me in a matter of 2 weeks. Definitely been in heavy rotation lately. Check the visual below.

Ty Segall's 2012, from left to right: Hair , Slaughterhouse , Twins Ty Segall knows how to save the best for last. Twins —out this week on Chicago’s Drag City Records —is the third Segall-related release of the year, and his solo follow-up to last year’s breakout Goodbye Bread . The most enigmatic and schizophrenic rocker this side of Jack White, Segall has delivered a piece that flawlessly combines his stoner heavy blues jams with his British Invasion psych-pop gems with his punk ragers.

Slaughterhouse - Welcome To: Our House Shady Records: 2012 How’s this for an idea: take four technically gifted rappers with more flops under their belts than successes, and put them in a group together. Give them an album, the entirety of which they will spend soullessly trying to out-rap each other, listenability be damned. When that inevitably flops, give them a major label deal and throw buckets of cash at the next project. The Slaughterhouse gambit is irrational, but it seems to have paid off: Welcome To: Our House arrived to glowing reviews [...]

When I saw Slaughterhouse was on Hot 97 recently, I knew this one was on it's way. Rosenberg calls this the best interview with SH that's ever been done, and I tend to believe that statement. Big up to this. Also, the Juan Epstein App is available now - check that out!

Only Tef could shoot me a heatrock at 10PM on a Saturday and I'd have to instantly drop it. This shit is serious. Second single status from War Machine 2 , which is hosted by DJ Smallz & DJ Shure Fire . And yes, Nickel Nine contributed some heat. The beat from Bashment Beats is perfect for these two.
