According to a recent myspace bulletin there are three forthcoming releases from Oakland-based hip-hop collective Hieroglyphics and a new Deltron 3030 LP. Before you get all excited though, the details weren’t that specific. Actually they weren’t specific at all – for example, the second Deltron 3030 LP looks like it might get a late 2009 or early 2010 release. Then, hot on the heels of Eleventh Hour is Del’s new solo LP Funkman which looks like being jointly released with fellow Hiero rapper, A-Plus’s Pleewater LP in Spring 2009. Apparently the intention is for both of these to be free for fans somehow. Finally, look out for a free Del EP L.E.D. also coming sometime ‘soon’.

Del’s Leak Pack Vol 2 has just dropped – still not sure about that name – I got a new baby and free downloads is the last thing that springs to mind when I hear the words ‘leak’ and ‘pack’ together. This time round, you get Del, A Plus (Souls Of Mischief) and Bukue One representing the west coast, and the ‘Ol Jersey Bastard himself – Tame One – repping the east. That works out to five free tracks in all – since Del’s generosity knows no bounds and like your friendly local hip-hop peddlers of yore he bungs in an extra one to keep you sweet. Chek!
