Scholarly Pursuits - The Schmagilla Incident
Global Awareness Entertainment and Universal Indie Records have teamed up to bring you the The Schmagilla Incident, the debut album by Scholarly Pursuits.
This first studio album represents a combination of strong passion and artistic creativity. The Schmagilla Incident is at it's most powerful when experienced as a single audio experience, taking the listener on a enlightening sonic journey. It is an original project pairing poetic lyricism with bass-filled, emotion-driven beats. The Freshman release by Scholarly Pursuits shows why they are at the top of their class.

Cartel - The Lost Tracks
As a way of saying thanks for supporting his first album, "Prepare For Glory", underground hip hop producer, Cartel has cooked up a special treat with this exclusive album of tracks that he produced and recorded between the years of 1990 and 1997. The song, "Nobody Plays Hard In The Graveyard" features the first appearance of Murder Inc's Cadillac Tah.
Note: This is not an official album and so it hasn't been mastered. Some songs were taken off old cassettes so the sound quality varies. But that shouldn't stop you from enjoying the tracks featured below.
