" Beat Tape Shit "

Beat tapes. Beat tapes, say it with me brethren...BEAT TAPES.......Everybody and their momma have a motherfuckin beat tape out kid...With this new influx of beat nerds trying to make noise, it gets harder and harder to sift through the mundane in order to find the golden nuggets...

My only problem with most of these beat tapes, is that many are lacking the explosiveness factor..For real, I find myself snoring through most of these joints..ZZZZZZZZZZZ....Try adding a couple scratches to your project, movie samples, odd segues, unpredidctable sequences and just maybe you will seperate yourself from the rest of the pack...

Anyway, let me get off my high horse and just bless ya'll with the goods...This beat tape by the M.A.W. (The 1974 E.P.) had it's moments, here are a couple beats that will make you nod your dome piece....

"Do Something"

"Channel Autumn"

" J-Dilla : Under The Radar "

"Dilla" dropped so much music that it would be impossible to track down everything that he put out...From obscure beat tapes, features, instrumental projects, and collaborations, it seems like he practically lived in the studio...

Here is a joint that you might not be up on by "T-Da Pimp"-Why You Looking Hard ?..."Dilla" produced this heat rock back in 1997...

Oh shit, this sample sounds mad familiar...I'm not quite sure what the original sample source is, but I know for a fact that L.L. Cool J rocked the same sample on a song called "Jealous" from the Walking With A Panther album....

Add this one to your stash box of "Dilla" treats cousin....R.I.P.

" Pro - Am 2010 "

It's going down in S.F. this weekend party people....If your in the bay area and you know what time it is, you better do the right thing and CHECK IN (Ya heard me)..

Big shout out to Zulu Gremlin for lacing up the posse...See you guys on Saturday....

Get your early bird tickets HERE !!!!!

While your at it-peep this 2010 Pro Am promo.....

" Ed Lover C'mon Son 12 "

Ed Lover is back with some more shenanigans for "C'Mon Son 12"....He takes time out to roast Joe Biden, Mathew Knowles, and a couple other celebs that got caught slipping recently...

He stars off a little slow, but I promise you by mid-way you will be cracking up....

" Donald-D : The Syndicate Sniper "

For some strange reason the "Rhyme Syndicate" have been written out of the Hip Hop history books...CRAZY...How could anyone forget a 50+ plus posse that stretched from east to west, and even Europe with the signing of Hi-Jack ( The first European Hip Hop group signed to an American record label )....

Nat The Cat, Bronx Style Bob, Divine Styler, Everlast (Before he became Whitey Ford HAHAH), Domination (Haven't Heard Nothing- is one of the best Hip Hop songs ever recorded), Afrika Islam, Spinmasters, Low Profile, S.L.J. (Before he bacame Shafiq of Sa=Ra), Bango, Bilal, Hi-Jack, Tim Story, Toddy T, King-T, Lord Finesse (Remember when he was down with Syndicate management), and of course the Syndicate sniper, "Donald-D" (I know there are more members, but you get the point-the posse was large).....

They made such a huge impact on me growing up that I should really dedicate a whole entire week to the crew (I will in the near future)...Seeing this example of east-west Zulu Nation unity at an early age, taught me that fly music is not really a regional thing, it could come from virtually anywhere-even Europe..

So when that fake east-west beef popped off in the mid 90's, I knew better than to participate...Salute to the motherfuckin Rhyme Syndicate- for teaching me what a true BUMRUSH is really all about...

I recently stumbled upon this mixtape by Donald-D (Capitol 1212) that made me put on my best screwface..."D" has made quite a name for himself here and abroad over the years...I'm not sure if he is living back in the States, last I heard he was living the life over in Italy....

Do yourself a favor and scoop this up...This mixtape gets the two thumbs up !!!!!!!!!

" On The Remix Tip "

Seattle beatsmith "Bean-One" has produced for Supernatural, Boom Bap Project, I Self Devine, Source Of Labor, X-Clan, etc...Even though 2010 is barely underway, "B" has already released a couple projects; instrumental album (Short Circuit), collabo album with G.Soulo (Heroes Theme Music), and a remix album that caught me by surprise...

Here are a couple highlights ...Decent stuff poppin off, give it a listen cousin...

206 Stand the fuck up !!!!!

Nas-"Second Childhood Remix"

" Dinco-D Sighting "

It's a shame that the Leaders Of The New School disbanded after releasing only two albums...Although they weren't my favorite group in those days, I realize now that they were truly ahead of their time (They were all teenagers when they first dropped)..

After Busta Rhymes's departure, "Charlie Brown", "Milo", and "Dinco-D" stayed on the low..Every once in awhile I would hear them collaborate with other artist for singles and whatnot, but I don't think any of them ever released another full length album.

If you want to hear what Dinco-D sounds like in 2010; peep this session with "Methuzulah" over a classic D.J. Premier beat (Form Of Intellect)...

He still got it...

" Monster Island Czars Shit "

Out of all the Monster Island Czars- Megalon and Rodan caught my attention the most....Megalon sounded like he was on some old shoot em up, boulevard bully shit....Rodan came off like a well read, conspiracy theorist Hip Hop monster...

Why is it so hard to find info about these two on the internet ?...

I recently stumbled on a interview with " Rodan " at Urban Smarts.Com...Interesting read for a interview that happened in 2003....He discusses his problems with M.F. Doom, M.I.C., politics, and up-coming projects...

Now that we got that out of the way lets get into some DRAMA !!!!

Yeah famz- I'm going to slap you across the face with some more remix action....You already know how I get down for mines.......Explosive drums, minimalist mayhem, crazy bass waves, and all that other grimey shit ......

" 9th Wonder Loose Joints "

I finally had the opportunity to sit down and listen to this new remix project by 9th Wonder(Loose Joints)..First off, it sounds way better than that last remix offering he dropped...Instead of hitting us off with a bunch of R&B tracks, we get the old 9th that has made a name for himself by dissecting slept-on soul gems.....

This joint by "Phaze" ( I'm Just Vibing ) produced by 9th, had me reminiscing on some early 90's, summer time, back yard boogaloo shit.....

Thank goodness Spring is right around the corner....

Megalon AKA Tommy Gunn AKA Black Jesus was once a member of M.F. Doom's old crew (Monster Island Czars)...I'm not quite sure what the status is of the crew nowadays...

" Drasar Slays The Remix "

Is it wrong to remix a song that Pete Rock produced ? (The World Is Yours)....It almost feels like I committed a sin by re-working one of P.R.'s classic heat rocks...

It's damn near impossible to top P.R.'s version, but this is no competition it's all about me being creative and sprinkling some dirt on Nas's vocals....

So listen up duke !!!!!

I bring the grime to the forefront on this one...NO keyboard bafoonery, NO happy textures, and NO bullshit : just pure imagination, heavy drums and black drama...

So for all those cats that noticed the fuckery, thanks for alerting me before things got out of hand (You know who you are)....This is Hip Hop Battlefield god damn it.....If you check my track record, you would already know we give no love to the SUCKAZ over here....

" Superb Clientele Mixtape "

Last night I took time out to listen to Lord Superb's new mixtape "Superb Clientele".....His over dramatic style had me laughing non-stop...

Below are a couple highlights....

" Lord Superb Speaks "

Fresh off of a six and a half year bid, one-time " Wu " affiliate " Lord Superb " breaks his silence....Who could forget his crazy lines on the Supreme Clientele album...

"You know how we dine, we don't eat swine/ and we don't drink wine.....If you don't bring me some cognac I'll kill you/ I cant feel you".......

That has to be one of the funniest lines I have ever heard in my motherfuckin life....Anyway, " L.S. " has a bone to pick with Ghostface Killah...He claims he wrote " GFK's " rhymes for an extended period...

When I first heard about this a couple years ago I paid it no mind, but if you really listen to " L.S.'s " rhymes on Supreme Clientele he does sound exactly like Ghost......HMMMMMMMM.

Regardless " L.S. " is crazy angry and spits pure venom on this 13 minute interview with Doggie Diamonds....You don't want to miss this one dukes....

* In the above pic-- Reakwon, Prodigy, Chip Banks (RIP) and Lord Superb...
