[RH Premiere] Kembe X: Soundtrack II Armageddon EP
Kembe X is one of the best rising emcees in Chicago. After dropping Self Rule in late 2011, Kembe spent most of 2012 laying low and working on his craft. I think the biggest complaint anyone had against Kembe is that there simply wasn't enough new music. Today he silences some of those chants with his new EP, Soundtrack II Armageddon. The seven track EP includes features from Julian Malone, Alex Wiley, and Isaiah Rashad and is the first of three EP's Kembe will be releasing this year. Peep the RH premiere below.

[RH Video Premiere] Dotkom x Japandrew: "Rhythmatik Composure"
"I'm good but how are you doing?
We're happy to premiere the new video for "Rhythmatik Exposure", a fantastically laid back cut from Dotkom (of theWHOevers) and Japandrew. The record appears on the duo's very dope collaborative project DayDreamer, and is nothing short of the top notch shit that Dotkom has been giving us since 2011. I don't know why more people don't know about these dudes, but they should. Peep the video below.

[RH Video Premiere] Jarred A.G.: "Humiliation"
Chicago rhymesayer Jarred A.G. has emerged as an artist to watch over the past months and with his debut project American Stepchild coming down the pipeline, we're proud to present his first video from the project, "Humiliation". Produced by Benny Nice, the track has a mellow groove, and A.G. lays down a smooth and melodic chorus to compliment, something we have yet to see from him. This is sonically the tightest track we've heard from the MC and is a preview of more things to come. Watch the visuals below, directed by Kyle Garcia and edited by Yung Pharaoh, and stay tuned for more content from Jarred A.G. here at RH.

[RH Premiere] Nick Astro: "Scarlett Johansson"
Nick Astro is finishing up his forthcoming SUPER16 project. Before the mixtape is released, he has one last drop in the form of this new cut, "Scarlett Johansson". The record is directed towards Nick's girlfriend, telling her that she's number one, but if the opportunity arose with Ms. Johansson, he would need to take it. I think we all can relate.
