Duck Down Records had a very solid year thus far with successful releases from Torae, and Buckshot and KRS-One. Not too mention Skyzoo readying to drop his album, The Salvation on Tuesday. In light of The Salvation’s upcoming release, I’m gonna highlight Skyzoo and Duck Down Records the next seven days. To start things off, here goes the best eight new hip hop songs from Duck Down Records’ artists… though in today’s hip hop industry (after 24 hours that ish is nearing retirement!), take the word new with a grain of salt. Check them out below!

Skyzoo – Saving Our Grace Episode 5: The Need
Skyzoo is back with the fifth episode in his promotional web series, Saving Our Grace. Episode 5 is called The Need. The Salvation drops September 29, 2009. Get yours!
Skyzoo – Saving Our Grace Episode 4: The Strength
Skyzoo is back with episode 4 of what is probably my favorite viral video hip hop promotional series out right now. Directed by Mills Miller. Skyzoo’s The Salvation is due out September 29, 2009. Check for him opening up tonight at the Buckshot and KRS-One album release!
Skyzoo – Saving Our Grace Episode #3 – The Hope
Skyzoo is back with episode #3 of his Saving Our Grace series. I love this promotional web series because Skyzoo is not only doing something incredibly different, but also empowering. The Salvation drops September 29, 2009, and yeah, there’s a little advertisement at the end, but the focus is on the people for each segment. Shouts to Skyzoo for thinking outside the box, and doing something different than the same old ego driven nonsense that I see in half the promotional videos that come out before albums.
Skyzoo – Saving Our Grace Episode 2: The Faith
Skyzoo is back with the second episode of Saving Our Grace. Episode 2 is titled The Faith. I like where Skyzoo is going with this series. Skyzoo’s The Salvation is in stores September 29, 2009.
Skyzoo – Saving Our Grace Episode 1: The Doubt
In anticipation of The Salvation hitting stores September 29, 2009, Skyzoo brings to you a new web series called Saving Our Grace. The first episode is titled The Doubt. Skyzoo stays bringing the real, so you know that this Saving Our Grace web series is gonna be dope. Check it out.
