Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott - Awesome Environment

 

In their slick new video for “Awesome Environment,” Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott embrace the sunny, laidback summer vibes that inspired their collaborative album, River Rats, and provide a guided tour of some of Pittsburgh’s river banks.

What may not look like much to the every-day viewer was a true source of inspiration, meditation, and comfort for the duo, as explained by Moemaw himself. He and C.Scott would meet up during the summer of 2020 for riverside hangs that served as an escape from the harsh realities of the world.

“We were previewing each other’s new music from a Bluetooth speaker, sipping our favorite canned beverages, passing the smoke, and discussing the real-life situations that shaped the lyrical content on River Rats,” Moemaw said. “That’s what makes it an ‘Awesome Environment.’”

It was a bastion of both hope and creativity for the two artists, who found solace on the shores of rivers at a time when the country was consistently on fire. And it serves as a welcome reminder that sometimes, even when it seems counterintuitive, your best bet for sanity is to head outside and enjoy your surroundings. We all have our own awesome environment; it may just take some trial and error for you to find it.

Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred DSP to stream through your preferred platform. The album is also available on cassette in limited quantities via Soul Slime Records’ Bandcamp profile.

Moemaw Naedon & C.Scott - Off the Path (feat. El Da Sensei)

Moemaw Naedon and El Da Sensei connect for “Off The Path,” a hypnotizing new slapper that showcases their tongue-twisting bravado over the head nodding production from C.Scott. It all fits into the premise that both rappers are “Off The Path” with their approach to their art. And the same goes for C.Scott’s prog-leaning instrumental.

“Off the Path” is available now through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms, and is set to appear on Moemaw & C.Scott’s collab LP, River Rats due out Sept. 2 via DSPs and cassette through Soul Slime Records. The cassette includes two bonus tracks, “Frog Work (instrumental)” and “P.K.E. (C.Scott Remix).”

Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra - Cult Theatre

Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra’s debut collaborative album, 'Cult Theatre,' is a celebration of surreal, grimy hip-hop that comes to life through visually provocative lyrics, experimental songwriting, and equally chilling and booming production. The entire record is produced by longtime collaborator Pyramid Tapes, the New Orleans beatsmith who surrounds the emcees with smoky, macabre instrumentals.

When Calig came up with the idea for the project, 'Cult Theatre' just clicked because he heard the album as “a soundtrack to an old grindhouse-type film from a projector screen.” Moemaw knew they had the right name, too: “I thought it was perfect since we’re both so visual with our bars and the album has a non-stop cohesive feel to it, like a movie, and the vibe is dark and psychedelic in typical ‘cult’ fashion.”

That vibe is apparent from the jump as the two emcees get underway on the opening track, “A New Abyss,” a sinister jaunt through “broken beer bottle glass and microphone booth bits.” Moemaw and Calig keep the pace on the ensuing eight cuts that include a woozy back-and-forth banger on “Pass the Vodka” and a dream collaboration with Lord Goat (f/k/a Goretex of Non Phixion) on “Witches Sabbath.”

Another instant standout is “Future Dystopia,” which Calig calls his favorite track. “Moemaw blacks out on that verse and hook,” he explains. “Plus I think it summarizes the album pretty well.” It’s actually that shared reverence for one another’s craft that makes Cult Theatre such a success. Moemaw and Calig don’t only sound great together on the record; they’re also quick to praise the other with rich details that only two close collaborators could really understand. And with Cult Theatre sounding this damn good, we can only hope that they bless the hip-hop community with more music in the future.

 

Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra - Pass the Vodka (prod. by Pyramid Tapes)

Moemaw Naedon & Calig Kontra are hosting a rapping clinic on their new banger “Pass the Vodka,” which fittingly boasts woozy, drunken production from Pyramid Tapes. The single stems from the duo’s forthcoming ‘Cult Theatre’ LP, and it shows off the strength of what real artistic collaboration sounds like. “Pass the Vodka” sounds like two talented friends having one hell of a time as they pass the mic back and forth.

Check out the lyric video and head over to your preferred streaming platform to support. 'Cult Theatre' is available now for pre-order and officially drops on Thursday, June 03 on classic black vinyl and through all major DSPs via Soul Slime Records☛ smarturl.it/CultTheatre
