World Around Records "We Are World Around"



Label compilations are always a tricky beast. Normally, you dig one or two artist on the label, and maybe via the comp you find another one or two...but then you are left with like 5 maybe 6 out of the 20 tracks you actually like. But everyone in a while, a labels roster, and their frequent collaborators (which often appear on such comps) are all or at least mostly dope artist. Those are the ones that get played over and over again, especially if they are unreleased tracks and not just songs that were on previous releases. That is exactly what you get with World Around Records "We Are World Around." There are a few artist that any regular reader of this blog will know, most notably Louis Mackey and Dr. Quandary, but there are others you should be aware of and this comp is a great way to be introduced to the likes of Zilla Rocca, Man Mantis, DREDi, and Curly Castro (just to name a few.) So do yourself a favor and download "We Are World Around" and then check out other works by the artists' featured, you will not be disappointed.
