about

Illgil is the same age as Jesse Dangerously, has loved hip-hop for just as long, played drums and percussion in high school just like Jesse did, and was even in Wordburglar's teenage rap clique, The Dregs of Society, but somehow this is her first appearance on an officially released recording. The cousins trade terse and pensive quatrains reflecting on their respective past relationships - romantic and platonic - seeking a sanguine and tranquil vantage point from which to look back without anger or bitterness; seeking the comfort of goodwill as distance softens the edges of hard times long gone by. The effective exchange, propelled by Ambeez's choppy strings and piano and the whirling shards of a classic Nova Scotian breakbeat, sounds like just what it is: two adults having a heart-to-heart conversation, looking back together over their parallel paths, bonding over their shared desire for resolution and warmth, and also that they can friggin’ rap good!

Well Wishers is the second single from The Library Steps album, Rap Dad, Real Dad, which returns in full to digital realms to coincide with its vinyl reissue on January 7th, 2022.

Cherry Mongoose
by Swamp Thing

Every Halloween Swamp Thing impress with a new collection of songs with a sci-fi and horror theme, and their newest is one of their best (after their Creature Feature debut album on Hand'Solo). Hand'Solo Records

SpaceVerse
by Wordburglar

Witty wordplay, hilarious punchlines, bumping boom bap beats, and a sci-fi concept, make for an awesome record for the MC best known to burgle the words. Hand'Solo Records

by The Mighty Rhino

Now nearly nine years old, the debut album reveals the raw roots of The Mighty Rhino with crowd-pleasing classics like "Whatupwitcha", "Put Your Ankles In It" and verified hit "Company Policy". Hand'Solo Records
