It’s no secret that Seattle’s hip-hop scene is thriving these days and the rest of the country is rapidly taking notice of the talent we have in the town.  Macklemore is leading the way, but there’s a bevvy of artists making great music with breakout potential.  People already know about folks like Sol, The Physics, Grynch, J. Pinder, Nacho Picasso, etc., but from what I’ve heard of Raz Simone, I think it’s safe to put him on that list as well.

Here’s the video for “Cold,” a record Raz debuted on Sound Session last week from his upcoming Solomon EP.  Great stuff.

Seattle people: If you’re interested in checking out a free show from Nacho Picasso, Capital Cities, and CRKNKN this Saturday, Hyundai is putting on this Re:Mix Lab event at Showbox Sodo and you can RSVP right here.  Along with the performances, there will be “state-of-the-art gaming systems, revolutionary technology, and cutting-edge sound systems,” plus, “Hyundai will reveal three custom built vehicles representing the ultimate in style, design, performance and innovation.”

SNSS listeners know that we welcomed Thaddeus David, Nacho Picasso, and Avatar Young Blaze in to our studio last week to debut their new “Sir Lancelot” record and now you can download the mp3 for yourself.  It’s somewhat of a different sound for Thad, but as you’d suspect with a MC of his caliber, he adapts his flow well for the track.  Nacho and Avatar sound at home too, with Nacho’s vocals cutting sharply through the beat and Av’s closing it out with his “scumbag of the year” verse. Download it below:

On what appears to be the most packed couch in recent memory, Thaddeus spits a quickie from his upcoming album, Maven.  Thad will be coming through SNSS this coming weekend to talk all about the project.  Coming off one of the best releases of last year with Taysean for Helluvastate, everyone should be anticipating Thad’s first solo project.
