Shabaam Sadheeq AKA S-Dubb - Relentless Hosted by Tony Touch and J-Ronin



I'm really excited to bring you guys this tape here. Shabaam Sadheeq has been one of my favorite underground artists since the late 90's and is supremely gifted lyrically. His unique flow and witty wordplay have made him someone I consider a great representation of real New York hip-hop. Shabaam has been rockin out for a hot minute and all those that remember the hay day of Rawkus Records and the Lyricist Lounge album series undoubtedly know of him and his music. For those that don't find his name familiar brace yourselves; Shabaam is 100% east coast, Brooklyn bred, street lyricist. Having worked and collaborated with some of the game's best and illest combined Shabaam is no stranger to a big stage. Whether he was spitting vivid imagery on "5 Star Generals" alongside Eminem, blessing the "Simon Says" remix with Busta Rhymes, Redman, Method Man and Lady Luck or beating up the beat on "25 To Life" with the Cocoa Brovas, Shabaam has been there and done that dance. Deeq' also has always had a really great ear for beats and that hasn't wavered to this day. Having worked with super producers like Ayatollah, Alchemist, DJ Spinna and Hi-Tek, he's always been around the underground's elite beatsmiths and still demands that type of excellence in his music. For this tape He's recruited a bevy of unknowns, but they are relaible and gifted unknowns. If you don't believe me just check out the beats that man Cosmo did for this project. After a short stint in the clink, Shabaam is back on the scene in Brooklyn and has linked up with one legend and one BK DJ on the rise. In true Sadheeq form, "Relentless" is hosted by none other than the dynamic and legendary Tony Touch (also from Brooklyn), who is assisted by worthy Brooklyn upstart J-Roninl; who in his short time in the game already has become a houshold name in terms of his "All Elements" tapes, in which Shabaam has also been apart of. "Relentless" lives up to it's name an re-aquaints shabaam's old fans with a heap of his new material. Blistering beat after blistering beat, razor sharp rhyme after razor sharp rhyme, Shabaam impresses and intrigues. Despite being primarilly a product of the 90's underground scene, he's still a supremely relevant MC and breaks new ground on this tape. Personnally I was throughly amazed by how well Deeq' has managed to adjust. Tracks like "Tell Me Your Name" and "Get Fired" drip with soul, and yet still maintain their street appeal, while other tracks highlight Deeq's disdain for the new school snap rappers. This is a very concentrated effort and a very focused tape, be sure to grab it.
