Long before he started to break out on the national scene, the consistently excellent rapper/producer Fly Anakin was known as the leader of the Richmond, Virginia rap collective Mutant Academy.
Fly Anakin and his friend Henny L.O. founded Mutant Academy in 2014, and it grew into a whole collective of rappers and producers. Different configurations collaborated on tons of mixtapes and associated projects, as well as this year’s Talk Soon EP. Now, Mutant Academy are getting ready to release their first proper album as a group.
The duo Unlucky Bastards made the low-key, horn-heavy track for first single “Liberation,” and it’s got verses from Fly Anakin, Big Kahuna OG, Henny L.O., and one guest, the Brooklyn-via-Detroit underground great Quelle Chris.

Detroit MC DA Donnieboy is from and on a different world
BATTLEWORLD EXPLANATION: "Aged Genghis"
The Aged Genghis' actual identity isn't known, due to him now being senile and barely functional. But even with his body almost immovable, be still floats around indefinitely and uses magical spells easily, his powers still being extremely immense. His power is theorized to be the original source of powerful characters, such as Dr. Strange, Dr. Doom and even "The Ancient One".
"Me addressing myself as Aged Genghis is a testament to where I believe my abilities lie, and how even when I'm old and senile, I'll still be able to flex this lyricism"
Jam Baxter, Dabbla and GhostTown return to complete the Dead Players trilogy this September.
‘Faster than The Speed of Death’ expertly represents the most recent
chapter in a decade (or more) of music making from the trio. Born in
Soul-2-Soul’s old studio, turned legendary squat, in Holloway, North
London, before evolving into a collaboration from three different
corners of the globe (Baxter living in Mexico City, Dabbla hopping
around Europe and GhostTown settled in sunny Yorkshire) ‘Faster than The
Speed of Death’ celebrates evolution, while staying true to the
previous iterations of the Dead Players universe.
Collaborating from distance can have its pitfalls, however, this isn’t
Dead Players first rodeo. Once the blueprint was established, Dabbla and
GhostTown flew out to Mexico to be in the same timezone as Baxter;
finalising songs, shooting videos and eating tamales at the summit of
ancient temples all vital parts of the album process.
The result? A pitch perfect listen that emphatically completes the
triptych. ‘Faster than The Speed of Death’ is a powerful reminder of the
Dead Players universe; a joyride back down the rabbit hole where
everything sparkles crimson and green, streetlights
bouncing off the side of the getaway car, Baxter and Dabbla’s
inimitable lyricism expertly propped up by GhostTown’s thunderous
production across 13-tracks.
Speaking on the release, Dabbla explained…
“This album was made with love across time zones and territories. We
almost killed ourselves making it. It might be our last, it might not,
one thing is for sure, it’s the best Dead Players album yet…”
Consitently dope MC Casual drops a thesis on his new release
Casual is a living legend. Straight from Oakland California #Rapgod has been the representative of elite lyricism for over a decade.
The Heiroglyphics representer says "I made this while writing my book; "Black Like Osiris"(on Amazon) During
this time I was debating people about Kemet (Ancient Egypt). Good beats
by Dead Perry, Kash Martin, Dame, Dj Toure, and myself."

One year on from the release of ‘Mantra No. 9’, Fliptrix returns with his tenth solo album ‘Dragonfly’.
Written and recorded off grid in the Portuguese mountains and produced in full by the Leigh Brothers (Leaf Dog & Illinformed), ‘Dragonfly’ is Fliptrix’s lightning in a bottle moment; a series of life-changing events compelling Fliptrix to hole up in the studio to capture the true essence of his recent experiences in real time.
The result is his most alive offering to date; handbrake fully off, emotions and energies dialled up to 11 across 14-tracks. Each unpacking a tumultuous year which included the birth of his daughter and unexpected passing of his father, all this while navigating the ever-shifting music scene he has championed for so many years as the founder of High Focus Records and 1/4 of supergroup The Four Owls.
Exploring the connections between the natural landscape and the spirit world, the dragonfly as a totem to the other, but more poignantly, in the fact that Fliptrix’s late father played drums in his own rock band of the same name in the 1970’s, ‘Dragonfly’ carries a personal weight that sets it apart from his previous album offerings, Fliptrix delving deeper than ever before; incredible highs paired with moments of introspection, reflection and mourning as he searches for meaning in the songs that he writes.
And with a stunning feature courtesy of psychedelic RnB superstar Greentea Peng on huge single ‘Cosmic Scenes’, ‘Dragonfly’ is the perfect body of work to round off Fliptrix’s canon of ten solo albums, spanning seventeen years (and counting) of music making at the very top of the scene.
