Can’t stop, don’t stop, rocking with that Doppz shit. Latest from the Hark LP.
This is a quick compilation of footage from The Doppelgangaz recent European tour. Look out for a video to “Barbiturates” next week.
Push ya wig bag. Hark is out now.
Since their debut EP, The Ghastly Duo, in 2008, Matter Ov Fact and EP have gone from strength to strength, having released four full-length projects and a couple of free beat tapes. With Hark out next week, it’s the prefect time to take a look back at some of their finest work from the past five years.

Preview the new Doppelgangaz album Hark, and pre-order here if you fux with it. Black Cloak lifestyle continues, although I’m still waiting for my Dapper Dan Gucci cloak to arrive.
“We’re all going to hell in a hand-basket…oh well”. The Doppelgangaz drop Hark on March 12.
This is the clip to the new Doppz single. Album drops 12 March, hopefully with a Dapper Dan Gucci Black Cloak bundle as I suggested.
First single from the new Doppelgangaz album, HARK, which drops March 12. Another sure-shot from Matter Ov Fact and EP.
While the music press was busy sweating Das Racist, EP and Matter Ov Fact have been carving-out a loyal following over the last couple of years with their unique brand of Sharking Rap, which combines laid-back beats with often disturbing lyrical content to create a records that don’t sound like anything else right now. Having originally interviewed the crew in 2010, I was only recently able to retrieve the tapes from the FBI to transcribe them, so I built with them again to her about what they’ve been doing since and combined the highlights from both sessions into what is clearly the only Doppz interview yo’ll ever need to read.
Robbie: What set you guys off on this path to make music?
EP: We were part of this big boy band – I don’t even know him! [laughs] Nah, we’ve known each other since little kids, man. Just growing-up, loving raw rap music, always watching videos. It started off, ‘Do you think we can do this?’ then started turning into, ‘Should we try to do this?’ Next thing you know we were doing it – pause. We were like, ‘We have a vision for this, let’s do this for real. We can definitely bring something different than what’s going on right now.’ Especially for dude’s that are our age – we had that more raw sound. Thankfully, it’s been received real well. And definitely have to thank you – after it was on Unkut, it’s crazy how many people were checking for us. You’re definitely the catalyst. We could thank you all day.

The Ghastly Duo get Apathy to assist on this remix of the highlight from Beats From Brothels Vol.2. Grab the download from here.
Best track from Beats For Brothels Vol 2 gets a video documenting the Groggy Pack’s Hip-Hop Kemp antics…
Get that Beats For Brothels, Vol. 2 if you haven’t already. Shark season continues…
I was checking out Beats For Brothels Vol.2 on the iron horse, enjoying the Hydrabeats style head-nod material, when seemingly out of nowhere they stepped into a Hell On Earth/War Report chamber with this killer cut. Verse two in particular captures that Iman THUG/Trag feel in just the right way. Good to see Matter-Ov-Fact and EP seem to have gathered a strong fanbase, you know Unkut Dot Com has been down with the Sharking movement since day dot…
Let them cow grow,cuz!
Don’t have the budget for video hoes? Grab an old doll out the dumpster. Third video from Lone Sharks.
