TiRon :: MSTRD
A follow-up to last year's Ketchup project (which was mixed by my good friend, Dj Low Key) is definitely on my most listened to list for the month. TiRon's just simply sick with it.... I only wish there were more tracks (project production credits include MF Doom and ... Continue Reading

One of the most important roles of a proper dj is to tell his or her audience what's hot through a properly compiled track list -whether this happens under club lighting or via MP3. Dj Low Key and Sounds Supreme have solidified their places within the definition of true disc ... Continue Reading
Ayomari :: The PB&J Solution

Ayomari is dope. I can't really say enough or even justify how much I've rocked this album since it was released a few days ago. I'm impressed. Truly, a solid effort featuring production by heavy-hitters Just Blaze and Large Professor (and PopLemon's 2009 best mixtape award winner, Cook Classics) and ... Continue Reading

I love a good mixtape, and this year has been one of the best as far as pushing the envelope with creativity goes but also in redefining what a mixtape actually is. For this reason, I have broken the mixtape category into three sections: dj-based, emcee-based, and production-based. Ratings are ... Continue Reading
TiRon :: Throwing My Money (video)
I like TiRon's shit a lot right now. In fact, if I had a theme song for the summer in my personal life, it would probably be this track right here... at least I'm not the only one with a rampant shoe shopping problem. I posted the snippet to this ... Continue Reading
TiRon :: Throwing My Money (video preview)
Published By Miss Rachel On Wednesday, September 16th 2009. Under Exclusives Tags: Dj Low Key, TiRon
TiRon has been one of my favorite graduates of the class of 2009. I've been steady bumpin 'Ketchup' since it dropped earlier this year (mixed by one of my all-time favorite djs - Dj Low Key). I've been really impressed with how much work a lot of independent cats have ... Continue Reading

Cali is killing it for me right now, I've been steady bumping U-N-I, Pac Div, TiRon all summer long. I'm super impressed by his beat selection, which is a nice mix of some of the best beats I've heard throughout 2009. Dom Kennedy is quickly becoming one of my most ... Continue Reading
TiRon – Ketchup
Published By Miss Rachel On Friday, April 17th 2009. Under Mixtapes Tags: Dj Low Key, Mixtapes, TiRon
Apparently, it isn't too early for 'Best of 2009' lists. I was scanning thru the online edition of the LA Times and stumbled across Jeff Weiss's The Quarterly Report: The best hip-hop albums of 2009, thus far. Although I completely disagree with Doom being at the head of the class ... Continue Reading
