" Milkcrate Jewels 35 : DJ Spinna Version "
It’s been awhile since I rocked a “Milkcrate Jewel” for the BATTLEFIELD posse, so without further delay let’s take a journey into my lab where I am holding stacks and stacks of chubby crates…
DJ Spinna did a excellent remix for CMW that many people are unaware of……”You Can’t See Me” knocks with crisp drums, floating keys, and a simple but effective approach that turns a mediocre cut into a 2 a.m. sure shot…
“You Can’t See Me’ 1996 Epic Records (promo copy)…….
Next up to bat is “Don’t Get It Twisted” featuring Sadat X…..It got some decent burn when it initially came out, but I don’t think fools realize how insane the beat really is……Heavy duty, innovative stuff if you ask me……
Definitely worthy of repeated listening……..
“Don’t Get It Twisted” 2001 (Beyond Real- Landspeed) off of the Infectious L.P…..
" Blog Shots 56 "
Last week I hit you with Ghostface’s top ten softest rappers in the game…..After discovering that Ghost actually maintains a blog (Big Ghost Chronicles), I stumbled onto part three of “T.T.S.R.I.T.G”…..
AWWWW man, I can’t believe how funny this shit is…….
For example…
#10 Drake….
“Surprise niggas! Ya boy Young Angel is back like he forgot his lip balms. Ayo yall remember the reactions niggas had when they seen those pictures that the nigga Jay-Z threw up on the Summer Jam screen of Prodigy dressed up like Mike Jackson? Niggas looked at that shit like it was pictures of son doin cartwheels in a bikini yo. Niggas thought that niggas career got dealt a deathblow wit that shit nahmean. N maybe it did kinda shake my nigga up namsayin….I dont know.
But in the meantime this merry little muthafucka right here got pictures of hisself sittin on broads laps n more pictures of hisself embracin other dudes than any nigga known to man… He STILL goin on with life like that shit all good. Cos aint nobody SHOCKED when they see the sus nigga with liquid vagina flowin thru his veins doin that shit namsayin. Niggas practically EXPECT that shit from son namsayin. But when you compare the MJ costume to this Farnsworth Bentley of Middle Earth look….you really cant see nothin that wrong with the Prodigy pictures no more son.
Either way…when it comes to Aubs you are lookin at the most softboiled creature on Gods green earth yo. This niggas music is so light in the ass that if you look real close at ya speakers when you playin his joints you can see tiny little heart bubbles comin outta em son.
HAHAHAHA…….BLAM,BLAM…

" New Blazers "
Last night I decided to give DJ Doom’s latest release a thorough listen (Temple Of Doom)……This cut that features J-Ro, Reks, and the heavily slept on Krumbsnatcha made my Hip Hop antennae activate….
Eerie samples, greasy talk, and a nasty Guru scratch sentence = WIN……..Produced by DJ Doom…
“Rookies”
" Prodigy Speaks "
“The Illuminati (plural of Latin illuminatus, “enlightened”) is a name given to several groups, both historical and modern, and both real and fictitious. Historically, the name refers specifically to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on May 1, 1776.”
For many Hip Hoppers, the first time they heard anyone mention the illuminati was when Prodigy name dropped the secret society on the, “Who Shot Ya Remix”….
You know the line, “Illuminati control my mind soul and my body / secret society trying to keep their eye on me”…….POW.
Luckily at a young age I was exposed to all types of conspiracy theory literature, which enabled me to think outside of the box while many of my peers were caught up in the average status quo frequencies. Nowadays everyone and their mother are yelling about who is in the illuminati and who isn’t….
“Jay Z is a freemason son, you notice all the dark energy in his videos?”
HAHAHAHAHA…..
I hate to bust your bubble, but it’s way deeper than that kid…Do the research for yourself and come to your own conclusions before you decide to start flapping your jibbs….
Prodigy recently popped up on the Alex Jones show for a couple rounds of gem dropping…..To my surprise, “Banana Clip P” held it down in a thorough fashion without succumbing to the “Scatter Brain Syndrome” that so many others fall victim to while discussing certain so-called conspiracy theories…
Big up to my brother “State” for providing the Mediafire link….
" Sound Killing "
Just when you thought it was safe, “Vanderslice” drops this drama filled compilation of library records, OST’s, and other rare cuts that will send a chill up your spine….
Press play and get your motherfuckin mind right…..DO NOT SLEEP…

Recently the Hip Hop Project (Eves, Cosm Roks, Monky, Roper, etc) caught up with Chicago hardcore ambassadors “Rubberoom” for a discussion about their new music, the reformation of the crew, and all types of other shit….
Peace to all my peoples in the “GO” who know what time it is…..
