The natural order of things is usually respect then money.  That's the basic shit.  But there's really no blueprint or guidelines on how to go from one to the other.  Many of the most respected people, in any field, are undervalued and underpaid.  This intersection is where Scheme sits right now as well.  He's regarded as one of the best emcees in Chicago, lyrically he's in the upper…

Earlier today Thelonious Martin, Scheme, and Alex Wiley all hit SoundScape to work on some new music for Thelonious Martin's Closed Sessions project.  You can expect to hear the record very soon.  This was the first time Alex Wiley and Scheme met, but the vibe was there early and both share a disdain for veggie burritos.

Scheme and Scend worked with video director…

"I made it out here without you, I know you're loving that." Scheme is on a roll right now, releasing his second new record in a week's time.  Following up on "Young Brotha Tray", Scheme remakes Rick Ross' "The World Is Ours" as part of a series with DJ Scend.  Scheme is on 'with me or against me' mode on this track, and it works very well.  Bar for bar, Scheme is one of the illest.

Allow us to introduce Scheme's new music series, Shoebox Sessions with guitarist Oscar Castillo.  The collaboration began organically, just messing around the DJ Scend's studio and it has really grown into something powerful and a new release for Scheme. As he said, "I want this series to be a venting place for me as an artist. A place where I get to talk about what's going on in my daily…

I do not know what Scheme is saying, but he sounds good saying it as raps alongside Los Rakas on their new "Lo Mucho Que Te Quiero".  Listen to it below. If anyone wants to translate, I'll give you some tix to the Black Milk concert. Read more
