Digi Crates Records Presents: Tha Connection – Connect 102 : Fresh Sly Remixes (Digi Crates Records) available late Sept. 2010-
Another banger from Tha Connection? I think so. Bloggerhouse approved Tha Connection is set to drop some more jams, so be sure to check the album when it drops….
King AL (who’s produced some heat for Bloggerhouse favs, Tha Connection), a jazz-soul/hip-hop producer from Sweden featured on Tokyo labels, Goon Trax and Libyus Music, has just released his debut self-titled album on 8/24 via Digi Crates Records. You can cop the album at all digital outlets, and be sure to peep “Double Up” and “Peanut Butter Oil” after the skip…
Here’s the new ill compilation from The Custodian Of Records titled, “The Sampler Platter”. Pretty impressive production and line-up on this one, project features the likes of Tame One, One Be Lo, Tone Liv and the Connection, to name a few. You can get it HERE.

Here’s 1/2 of one of my favorite duo’s, Tha Connection, Hus, with the album samper for his forthcoming LP, “Cognac Fruit”. The album is due out on Digi Crates Records in August.
My man Corey from tha Connection just sent over “Cool, Calm, Chill”, the debut single from Tiff The Gift of her debut of the same name, to be released on Digi Crates on July 13th. I’m really diggin’ the production on this jawn. Peep the sampler above, grab the MP3 below…
My dude, and 1/2 of one of my favorite, hardest working duos in underground hip hop that Connection, Smoovth, sent over this recent mix of some of tha Connection’s best on DJ Kingstun’s Main Ingredient Radio Show.
Tha Connection – DJ Kingstun Main Ingredient Radio Show 2010 Mix. Hus X SmooVth are Tha Connection, previously releasing material on labels such as Goon Trax (Tokyo, Japan), Feelin’Music (Switzerland), Domination Recordings, Libyus Music (Tokyo Japan), River City Music Ent. (Yokohama, Japan), Peak-A-Boo (Sweden).
Now available for free download is the official album sampler from The Strangerz for their debut album “2nd To None” to be released on May 4th on Digi Crates / Domination Recordings. Compiled of the duo Hus and Smoovth of Tha Connection (who have released projects in the past on Goon Trax, Domination Recordings, Feelin’Music, Libyus Music, River City Music Ent.) and Marvelous Mag (his debut release “Selfless Acts” features Skyzoo on the underground smash “Still Alive”) emerges as the Long Island, N.Y. trio The Strangerz.
Their debut release “2nd To None” explores soul, jazz, and love songs with a street vibe. The debut album “2nd to None” is a 15-track masterpiece of the classic hip hop sound that is truly missing in today’s music!
Now available on Itunes is Smoovth’s (1/2 of B-House favs, tha Connection) Digi Crates single, “Backwards”. The single serves as Smoovth’s debut single from his forthcoming album, “Checkmate”. If checkmate is comprised of more of this same heat, count me in for a purchase.
You know, ever since I’ve been blogging, I don’t know if I’ve ever taking a liking to a duo quite as I have the combination of Smoovth and Hus aka Tha Connection. Yeah, I’ll be the first to admit, I have my favorites; acts that have emerged from the depths of wackness, better known as the current state of “overground” Hip Hop. Artists such as Apollo Brown, The Left, 14KT (the whole Athletic Mic League, for that matter), Ill Poetic and the Jazz Addixx, to name a few, have rekindled my love for the music and art form. And while the pickins’ can be slim at times, it’s dudes like the aforementioned cats that spark originality in Hip Hop, and it’s THEM whom will be left standing when all the dust has cleared.
