Lacoste L!VE x Breaks of 10- Selector Sessions Party

Last week at their Soho store, Lacoste L!VE threw a collaborative party with blog site, Breaks Of 10 showcasing some of the freshest and talented artists and DJ's in the London hip-hop scene. Last Japan and DJ Motive committed some crimes on the decks, playing the biggest tracks new and old, from this side of the pond and Stateside. The kid, ItsNate was the main performer on the night, the North Londoner doing no harm to his increasing buzz and rep as a talented wordsmith. Nate also invited TR Fernandez to join him, and the two peformed a new number, that had several heads knocking. Free 'juice' was supplied on the night by Koppaberg, and with many attendants in good spirits in the packed store, the night could definitely be seen as a success. 

Above is a video of the said event and yours truly can be seen towards the end of the video.

Butterflies

Talented lyricist by the name of Kieron Boothe showcasing his skills ahead of the release of his upcoming project, "Still Life". You may have to listen more than once to clock all the punchlines though. 17 year old MC from East London, Kieron may be one to watch in 2012 and beyond.

I Don't Know

Nice, simple and stripped down performance with a strong hook by Joel Baker and well-crafted verses by Barney. The rapper is only 20 years old and hails from Forest Gate. This is the first release from the forthcoming EP #TheAcousticSessions. The project should be with us in the New Year, I for one will be giving that a listen.

Nikes On My Feet

Brewer is back with a new freestyle, and as can be expected does not disappoint over the Mac Miller instrumental. Smooth flow and introspective lyrics, fans and followers of the 22 year-old will not be surprised.

The jacket looks very tidy, especially with the leathered texture on the arms and featuring the group's acronym on the bottom left hand pocket. With two popular videos ultimately leading to a multi-million dollar deal with Sony  look out for more from the Harlem Collective in 2012.
