Elujay is a Hip-Hop artist/producer who uses his eclectic sounds to put his vision on wax. If you’ve never heard material from the Oakland musician & were looking for an overall jest of his artistry, paint a picture in your mind of jazzy production vibes that promote the rising “future bounce” sound. Elu himself would say that his music is selective and the sound of tomorrow.
Today he returns with a new addition to his growing collection of soulful vibes, this time recruiting R&B songster, YMTK titled “Flagrant”.
This new track is a dark and murky sample of rhodes keys layered with punchy drums and scattering hi hats. The production is brought to life when Grammy-certified trumpet player “Trumpet Dude,” whose musical genius has connected him to the likes of Wyclef Jean, Usher, Wiz Khalifa, Marsha Ambrosius, Eightball/MJG, adds his portion to the record. Subtle 808s give the song its hard-hitting flavor that mixes in well with its inherent soulfulness.
The verses in the track touch on how Elu and YMTK reflect on their past relationship problems and how they dealt with them, using outlets such as weed to “weather the storm” when a woman is pushing you to the edge.
Elu shares a bit of introspect on the record:
This is MY expression of the emotions that a woman caused me to feel when I was in a relationship with her and how I coped to get through it.

Michael Jackson’s 1982 record-breaking album Thriller will undoubtedly be mentioned in history as his most timeless work ever. The album has gone on to influence many greats that are still living today, and certainly paved the way for R&B music as we know it today.
Artists such as Usher, Chris Brown, and many others have built their entire careers following the blueprint that was originally layed out by “The King of Pop”.
Today, Bay Area R&B singer Cash Campain intends to be another artist mentioned in time when it comes to talents that have mirrored The King. His latest body of work Michael In ’79 can be seen & heard as an ode to the late Michael Jackson as the cover art to his new project is reminescent of the original Thriller album cover.
In this 13-track offering, Cash explores the depths of his R&B sound and incoprates the flavor of his native area (The Bay), Hip-Hop in its current stage, and the rhymth of the blues to manifest this music.
He’s aiming for this to be his best project yet:
This album has been a very in depth and personal project for me. It’s personal in the sense that I had the tools to be as creative as possible this time around. Nothing about this album is commercial, cookie cutter or made to continue a fad. Michael in ’79 has a timeless sound (hence the album title). I enlisted truly creative artists like my brother Caleborate, T Carrier and Stina Bates to ensure this album was full of records that will be around for many years to come.
With high hopes to conquer new audiences with his new project, Cash Campain presents to the masses his latest effort, Michael In ’79. Listen below.
The Arab Gang Takeover continues as Matt B drops his second track off his upcoming Summer mixtape, “Believe It,” produced by OhZoneBeats. The first single “Ocean View” was a smokin’ & sippin’ vibe. With this release, “Believe It” follows the trap style stories of his life. Stream above.

Laced with witty and overt conversation openers, OYABUN delivers melodious vocals atop the jazzy Jerry Folk-produced instrumental.
