Divine Minds - Divine Intervention [Mixtape]



I like to do my own research on new acts but considering Black J gave me the information so neatly, I'll simply pass the bio onto you:
Divine Minds is a hip-hop duo consisting of an MC and producer from Cleveland, OH. Black J, the MC, and Mike A, the producer, have been lifelong friends and lifelong music fanatics; however, it was not until after their graduation from Shaker Heights High School in 2004 that they joined forces to begin creating music of their own. Years later, with a great deal of recording and performing experience under their belts, Black J and Mike A are ready to take the world of music by storm with a divine sound and a heavy debut album, “Divine Intervention”.
Their music is crazy people, I see a very solid future in their music. Be sure to check out the tracks below as a sample because they're real dope. Personally That's Cool is going to be my jam for the next week or 2. Arms Reach isn't one to be slept on either. Don't be surprised to see a review of this mixtape in the coming weeks.

Nique - Purple

I would advise everyone to really read into Nique in the near future because I think he can do better than just this. Its a solid song with a lot of style but something tells me that he has a lot more in him. His Newest mixtape "Framed and Unfocused" is due out in October.

Wow so something happened, thats pretty rare. You can make the argument that it never happens: I slept on something, and it doesnt help that the mixtape is incredible too. AND it dropped in late August too....SMH. Today I been handing in late passes left and right. But anyways, on to the mixtape itself. It is a great body of work over production that fits each track, and each track fits perfectly creating a mixtape that shouldnt be free. Yeah, I said it. With all thats been said, if you still dont download it, its your loss. And if you have twiiter and wanna tell Add-2 how much you enjoy the tape (because you will), tell them Dmack sent you haha.

DOX - Midas Touch (Feat. D. Julien)



DOX has some very solid talent. He has a certain approach to the music that's more street and a lot more raw than what dudes are coming out with right now. Its not new age shit like you're used to seeing on blogs, its street. Which is surprising refreshing considering the mass inflow of carbon copies we're getting of the Freshman 10 from last year. If you're up for some raw street material, get into this joint.

Nero Re-Invents The Rubix Cube Cancelled?



Nero Re-invents The Rubix Cube has been a project that's been worked on since last year. Since 2008, Nero has kept certain tracks that he felt were his best and stashed them away, many were to debut on this project. However, this announcement leaves a lot of things up in the air. We have no idea what the plans are at this moment but we'll get update you as soon as Nero decides to update us.

Sermons Domain Reviews: The Blueprint 3

Sermon is an old friend of mine, dating back about a year and a half ago, when I first started blending. If you're unfamiliar with his reviews, I'd suggest you check it out, because they're pretty reliable. His lastest features Jay-Z's Blueprint 3, which hits stores September 8th. You can see the original review here.


This is the same man who blew you away with his classic “Blueprint” album back in 2001. He came back with a good, not better than the original, “Blueprint 2” double album in 2002. He fell back from the game for quite some time and dropped 2 solo albums that couldn’t flare up with his “Blueprint” collection. Fast forward to 2009, Jay is still making music and has finally gave us “Blueprint 3.” Some are saying this didn’t need to be made and others will argue against you. Can Jay make another classic album to add to his extensive career?

Jay’s introduction, “What We Talking About” is a more “look at what point we’re at” type song. He mentions various Hip Hop events and names. Most notably, the first verse when he spits “I ain’t talking about Game/I ain’t talking about Jimmy/I ain’t talking about Dame.” Jay knows exactly how much to say before getting borderline disrespectful like with “Dame made millions, even Jaz made scraps/Would’ve made more but he ain’t sign his contract.” The singles (“D.O.A,” “Run This Town”) have been exhausted quite a bit but still stand tall on the album.

It seems as though Hova has finally passed the torch on “A Star Is Born” (Click to Listen) to young J. Cole, one of Jay’s newest signees to Roc Nation. He doesn’t give much of a co-sign to Drake though because “Off That” (Click To Listen) only showcase him on the chorus and it isn’t his best effort. The complaints that Hov was trying to stay relevant using a lot of up and comers has been at all time high but they actually help the album a lot. Mr. Hudson surprises with an amazing chorus on “Young Forever.”

Although the new comers seemed to have taken over, Jay doesn’t forget about some of the people who been down with him for quite some time. Timbaland’s beats aren’t up to par as well. He has also said he was saving his best material for his album which is a selfish act but he does a decent job on “Reminder.” (Click To Listen) His best effort comes with “Venus Vs. Mars.” (Click to Listen) The club potential shows a rare side of Jay now: talking to the shortys.

Kanye gives Jay a 2nd run for his money on “Hate,” (Click To Listen) killing him once again. The duo goes back and forth about the haters on the spaced out Kanye production. The beats don’t match up with the lyrics most of the time. Kid Cudi assists Jay on “Already Home” but the beat gives it a poor showing. However, Jay gets overly cocky, with his rhymes, on “Thank You,” boasting about rappers he could’ve finished but didn’t ‘cause of some unknown reason. He also spits “Please don’t bow in my presence, how am I a legend?/I just got ten number one albums, maybe now eleven.”

Sadly, this won’t make number eleven for Jay. With the exception of about 4 or 5 songs, this is far from a classic. You can’t compare this to the first installment nor should you. Jay has evolved. To some, for the better but judging off of comments, most agree, it’s for the worst. You can’t count out Shawn Carter though. When he finally does retire, he’ll surprise even himself.


Purchase the album here. Or at any retail music seller on Sept. 8th.

Max B Updates: Sentencing and Motions for Re-trial


Now if you keep up with the wave master at all. You'd know that there were alot of reports that Max B was sentenced to 75 years in prison yesterday. However, Max's good friend French Montana, had some news to spread via twitter.


So what French was trying to say is that it looks like Max has 30 days to go to the judge with the new evidence and new lawyer to try to convince them that the evidence gives then the right for a re-trial. If they can't get the re-trial ...75 years.

D.O.Z. (Death Of Zshare)



As many of you have probably realized by now, A few days ago Zshare clocked out of the hosting game, most likely for good. Now typically this wouldn't pose a problem, as I tend to host from Usershare about 70% of the time. However, for the unsuspecting souls who have made Sound Society submissions over the past week and a half, you may not be so lucky. Luckily for you , I've decided take it upon myself to review any re-submissions. So if you have any submissions from the past 10 days or so that had links to Zshare, don't go flooding Dmack's or Redline's email. I'm taking one for the team. Hit me up at Natac.waveclub@gmail.com and I'll review it within the next few days.

JustNice - Drive (Feat. Brey Quick & Choze)


This next song is from Pennsylvania rapper JustNice (Right). He's one of the latest artist we stumbled across via twitter. Shoutout to Choze for the heads up on this track as well. Coming off the Choze & JustNice collab mixtape entitled Respect Earned, Drive is a very smooth track, the concept is dope and the production has a sort of R&B feel that surprising works perfectly with the tone of the track. Good shit all around, highly recommended.

Rickie Jacobs – What a day (Prod. By 9th Wonder)



Rickie Jacobs is definitely onto something here, I didn't think he could take on a beat like this to be honest. At this point I have no problem saying Rickie Jacobs has a solid future in hip-hop, considering the fact that he has the ability to entertain as well as focus on his concepts. You might take those qualities for granted, but without both you'll never be able to make an album (See Cassidy, Papoose, Uncle Murda etc..).
