From the Independent:

#9 Kooley High presents… David Thompson:

With a self-aggrandizing Twitter hashtag, a stilted reunion between Phonte Coleman and producer 9th Wonder, and a major-label debut by J. Cole, you’d think that North Carolina hip-hop would be the prime topic at the close of 2011. Once again, though, most of the state’s hip-hop output proved tepid, inflated and strangely beyond its expiration date. Only David Thompson—Kooley High’s sad-eyed missive about the troubles of trying to make it outside of #nchiphop—seemed rooted in the moment. Charlie Smarts and Tab-One have never before seemed so well-adjusted in their roles as foils, playing off intriguing beats from guest producers with a candor that’s both invaluable and endearing.

-BIG shout out to the INDY for selecting DT as one of the Triangle’s Top Ten albums of 2011. Means a lot….

Words from DJ Hyphen…

It’s a busy week in Seattle with Monday Night Football coming to town for my day job at ESPN, Dom Kennedy performing on Capitol Hill, and the Watch The Throne tour with Kanye & Jay-Z going down as well. To that end, just the biz this week. Shout to King Britt (!!!), Tendai Maraire, Dyme Def, and Casey Carter for coming through the SNSS studio to kick it. Enjoy the music and don’t let us get in our zone.
