The Honey is #8 on the CMJ Hip Hop charts this week. Interview scheduled with WFMU for tomorrow (?) – details soon – I will post the interview time in the comments section as soon as I know.
Also, here’s a sweet review from Okayplayer.
Also, here’s another trailer I made for Dumb Dumb, premiering at Revelations in Fairfield on Saturday, 8 pm:

Iowan MC Coolzey released his debut full-length this January entitled The Honey (PS Records). Thank God he isn’t on some forced-esoteric Anticon shit, because he could have so easily gone in that direction. Nay, he says, instead embracing melodic, thumping, and always unique hip-hop. An array of help as eclectic as Coolzey’s musical vision helps out on the album–William Elliott Whitmore, Sadat X, Copyright, and Bru Lei all join in the fray. Sure, Coolzey’s a nerdy, white, hip-hop geek, but he doesn’t make that the centerpiece of his rhymes.
