50s representative, Young Devi (aka Deviossi), is back. After laying down some memorable verses on his own mixtapes and more than a couple belonging to Ron Ron, Devi's latest official video shot by Brainiak has 20,000+ views in just about thirty days. On this one,...
Grammy-noted jazz composer and producer Roy Hargrove swung through the Foundation on Friday night, which turned out to be a pretty wild night in Kansas City with a lot of events going down. I first went to see Matty G at the Midland Theater downtown, and his minimal,...
Several months ago, a contributing writer for Demencha wrote a blog post requesting that our readers give her some suggestions for local female musicians. I really appreciated the article; because I too am an avid fan of a strong and talented female songwriter, lead female...

This is an interview we did over the phone with Northern California-based dubstep producer and DJ, Matty G, last month. Be sure to check him out live at the Midland Theater in downtown KCMO with Caspa and more on Friday, February 3rd. p.s. The first person who listens to this...
![VS Mini @ Riot Room [Recap]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/lou-rip-at-vs-1024x599.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
As usual, the VS battle on Saturday night prompted a lot of "ooohs" and "aaahs". DRplus2, Barbaric Merits, Info Gates and Ghost competed in a beat battle royal with Ghost playing drums over his own pre-recorded tracks. Barbaric Merits left with the prize, while former Demencha...
Confession: I don't know anything about KC's JR Tha Fly Guy, other than this video sent to us via e-mail just yesterday. On French Montana's "Shot Caller" instrumental produced by Harry Fraud, JR gets fly over a recycled horns sample which I can't put my finger on as far...
![Featured Artist of the Month: MORRI$ of Team Bear Club [Jan/Feb 2012]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Morri-FAOM-EDIT-1024x583.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
Having lived all over the country in places like Philadelphia, Texas and Chicago among others, Lawrence, Kansas seems like an odd place for MORRI$’ patented style of dreamy trap beats and DJ mixes to come out of. Soon to enroll back in school at KU as a film major, the blog...
Though I loved Drake's latest album, Take Care, I thought Drake's verse on Rozay's recent "Stay Schemin" went a little too hard. Common does his best to expose Drake in this latest diss track that just came out today. The heads know that Common's never been one to cower in...
![VIDEO: Irv Da Phenom – “Disguise” [Dir. Craig Smith]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Irv-EDIT.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
Off his All Nighter mixtape comes another official video, this one for "Disguise" over Common's "Ghetto Dreams" beat. The last video I saw and heard from the same mixtape was really kind of an eye-opener to Irv's lyricism and delivery. To me, he's one of those artists that...
10. Young Fate - "All Gass" [prod. Mr. Fresh] Ladies and gentlemen, hit play and start your engines. This video player popped up in February and sees Fate spitting game over a real heat-rock from Mr. Fresh. While Young Fate verses are on my brain, his 16 on Ron Ron’s...
