Palaces For Machines, by TOKYO CIGAR MUSIC 17 track album

*98 DJ Clue voice* NEW TOKYO CIGAR!
I got 5 (beats) on this one and everyone came correct.

Love working with Tokyo - always keeps me on my toes with his beat choices and elevates them with fly, abstractions and masterful storytelling. Plus that voice!

For what it's worth, I can vouch for the awesomeness of this EP. At least once a week I get the hook from their 2023 song "The General" stuck in my head. Also, shout out to Five Steez for including lyrics on his Bandcamp page. I'm always surprised more rappers don't do that!

The Dharma of Lex Boogie and Senz Beats For the release of their new collab album Dharma, Son Raw linked up with Lex Boogie and Senz Beats to break down each song, its beatmaking process, life lessons, and more.

A track by track breakdown of Lex Boogie & Senz Beats' "Dharma" – an adventurous take on post-Roc Marciano, post-KA strain of hip-hop.
