Kingdom Kome has a “Corbata Colombiana” (new video)
Globe-trotting emcee Kingdom Kome returns with new video “Corbata Colombiana.” Filmed in Medellin, Colombia the track was produced by The Equation Beats (who hails from that country and appears in the video).

The track appears on the recent collaborative album from Kingdom Kome and The Equation Beats titled Arepa Y Manteca. Named for a traditional Colombian delicacy, according to Argentinian born Kingdom Kome “we decided to keep the project real paisa, which means countryman. This includes most of the album collaborators Colombian Raw, AjaxLo & CTraffik.”
Other album guests include Che Uno, Sunez Allah and ParaNoize and the result is ominous instrumentals and grimy beats clashing with disrespectful lyrics in two languages.

Hieroglyphics drop new LP & video
All Said And Done, the latest chapter of Hieroglyphics is here! The third official full-length album from the Oakland, California super-crew is now available via streaming, vinyl and CD editions (links below) with hand-drawn album cover courtesy of Shomari Smith. A legendary amalgamation of hip-hop entities, Hieroglyphics is composed of Casual, Souls Of Mischief (a quartet composed of A-Plus, Opio, Phesto and Tajai), Del The Funky Homosapien, Domino, DJ Toure and Pep Love.
Recorded over a nine-month period in 2025, All Said And Done (the first official Hieroglyphics release since 2013 mixtape The Kitchen) is a fully self-produced affair (with tracks handled by A-Plus, Domino, DJ Toure with the only additional assistance from multi-instrumentalist Jim Greer and cuts on one track by DJ D-Styles of The Beat Junkies). Speaking on the album title, Casual stated that “it refers to this album being the skill level that we would like to be remembered for.” He also says that the album track “Uplifted” is a personal highlight that will “last to tell the story of HIero if no other song does.”
An official video for the track “The Way That It Be” featuring performances from Casual, Pep Love and Tajai was just released (link below).
