Season Two — Episode Three (Feat. Daniel Schultz)

With Daniel Schultz—RCA Records' rap-focused A&R—at the shop for today's episode, hip hop comes to the forefront. We explore New York rap's vast spectrum of classic sounds from sharp-lipped Brooklyn lyricist Latasha Alcindor to the effortless flows and intricate stories of Gabe 'Nandez. The tight and dynamic Vancouver five-piece Peach Pit offers "Alrighty Aphrodite" and a mesmerizing single from Denmark duo Smerz is played. We dive into "Lost Inside You" by Uhmeer, a song co-producer by illustrious London DJ Eric Lau (previously featured on 2.2). Lau shared with us high praise for the furtive young artist: Uhmeer is "one of the most gifted young people I've met," he says.   01 "Plaques" by Gabe 'Nandez 02 "Revoke Thee" by Latasha Alcindor 03 "Lost Inside You" by Uhmeer 04 "$on of a Queen" by Melodownz 05 "CYCLES" by Tamara Renée 06 "Let It Play" by Lil Cobaine 07 "No Harm" by Smerz 08 "Alrighty Aphrodite" by Peach Pit Playlist available: soundcloud.com/not97/sets/not-97-season-two-episode Artwork by Irene Chin © NOT 97.
