MP3: Hedmark - Put the world on it

Info/" target="_blank">Dødpop, reppIng NorwegIan Skweee worldwIde. It's stIll a mostly Instrumental sound, but up and comers are pushIng the sound Into new terrItorIes, new regIons. Guest rhymes from Sadat X of Brand NubIan? Hell yeah, take It InternatIonal; mIx up the old-school and the new. I love the beat on thIs track, It's so sparse, dIrty and slow. Sweden and FInland are stIll the bIg brothers of the scene, but Norway Is pushIng hard.
