" New Shit On Deck "
UZN DJ Lord Ron, comes to the table with a bag full of brand new Hip Hop goodies….
Joints from Moob Deep, Concept, Wild Bunch, Has-Lo, Krumbsnatcha, Torae, Wildelux, and many others so quit stalling and hit the download link JACK !!!!
" Thursday Rockets "
You have seen the videos for “Cold Facts” and “Every”, now your going to get another dose of KA wreck with his newest offering entitled, “Collage”…..
Peep the wordplay because dude is in a class by himself with that 2011 hardcore shit…..Keep your eyes peeled for his upcoming album (Grief Pedigree) dropping sometime soon I hope….BLAM…
" Stranger Than Fiction "
To many cats like myself, the turntable is a sacred instrument….The possibilities are endless when your a creative DJ with a sturdy foundation in this shit….Many have spent the majority of their life searching for records, learning scratches, blends, doubles, and various other techniques that a true Hip Hop DJ should be well versed in….
So when someone who obviously does not know what the fuck they are doing- tries to perpetrate a fraud behind the decks, someone has to blow the whistle….RIGHT ?
I’m not giving DJ AK47 (Alicia Keys) a pass on this one….I don’t give a fuck if she looks good jingling on stage, I don’t care if Swizz Beats is trying to hype shit up, and I really could care less if Bussa Buss looks so happy…..Nah, I’m not going for this new age nonsense ya’ll……
Watch for yourself, think for yourself….
" For Those That Like To Groove, Part 28 "
Atlanta producer Apple Jac, has been making a name for himself with his brand of dusty beats….”Music Is My Main Squeeze” was recorded in 2003, but it sounds like it could have came out this year (Good music is timeless ya’ll)….
Sixteen tracks of instrumental, chopfest goodness…

“Manhattan Night” featuring Zaquan……..
“Feel You”……..Pay attention to the lyrics….

Rock on ya’ll…
" Jarobi Speaks "
Mysterious ATCQ member Jarobi along with Dres, (Black Sheep) stopped by the “Combat Jack” show for a in depth three hour long interview recently 11/2/11…You do not see many Jarobi interviews anywhere on the web, so if your a true ATCQ fan this is a essential listening session…
Be on the lookout for the Dres & Jarobi collaboration project in the near future (They debut a couple tracks under the name 20/20 so do not sleep)…
" Let The Beats Rock "
Had a wild weekend…..
Helped celebrate the Zulu Anniversary with some homies, went on several digging missions and came up something ridiculous, ate some incredible Peruvian food, got my car broken into and ransacked……”ANYBODY CAN GET IT” I guess…..
To those burglars that boosted up my ride, karma will catch up to you one day you fuckin dirtbags……
Anyway, nothing can ever disturb my groove so let me kick off Monday on the right foot : Damu’s newest offering, “All Green/ Overthrown”….
" Cuban Link King "
To help build anticipation for his upcoming album “The Pilgrimage” on November 15th, Cappadonna & DJ Monster put together this mixtape to help you get up to speed….
Check in…
" Obscure Disorder – Before 2002 "
On the last post I mentioned that “O.D.” never got around to releasing their debut album, “7 Months Of Ice”….After deciding to do a little investigating though, I stumbled onto a mysterious bootleg project called Before 2002, that runs 17 songs deep….
Not quite sure when this was released or who put it together…..
Regardless, turn the volume up a notch and let the beats rock (That rhymed by the way, HA.)….

" Milkcrate Jewels 37 "
Before he was Kanye West’s DJ, before “Fools Gold Records”, A-Trak was involved with a group called “Obscure Disorder” from Montreal, Canada..
Troy Dunnit, Eclipse, Logik, and Dave One (A-Trak’s brother, now in the group Chromeo) put out a handful of singles on their own imprint “Audio Research Records” that have managed to age very well…..
In my opinion, A-Trak’s best production work is with this group…
Check out the very ill ” Overdose Music” for proof, or take a listen to this brilliant cut from 2002, “The Grill” that showcases how fresh A-Trak can get behind the boards…..Sometimes I wish he would have expanded on this type of formula, instead of dabbling in the “New age electro” types of beats he deals with nowadays (To each his own)…
There were talks of an album (7 Months Of Ice) that was supposed to drop in the early 2000’s- but for some reason that album was never released to my knowledge..(What a shame-this group had the potential to do major damage at a critical time in independent Hip Hop, maybe we can get a Lost Tapes type of release fellas)..
“The Grill” produced by A-Trak….Audio Research Records 2002…
" DJ Big Jacks – 12’s Mix "
This is a nice forty minute mix by a cat named Big Jacks (Southern Hospitality UK) that includes tons of ultra rare joints…..You will hear doubles, blends, and more than a few surprises…
Some would label this a “Random Rap” mix, but I believe that term is a limited one and doesn’t do justice to some of the incredible material that somehow slipped through the cracks when it was initially released….
No playlist around this time ya’ll- your just going to have to trust me on this one…..
DJ BIG JACKS – TWELVE 12s MIX (80s & 90s Random Rap Mix) by Big Jacks
" Revolution Wrecks The Breaks "
The turntable wrecking ball DJ Revolution, comes correct on this mix that is stacked with heavy breaks..
Nonstop action for all of those looking for some explosive frequencies..

" Polo Mania, Part 4 "
Frank 151 (Akil Nuru) recently sat down with the Polo Godfather “Rack Lo” to discuss his Hip Hop upbringing, POLOPARTIES, upcoming projects, traveling, boosting, and all types of other wild shit…
F151 : “How have you made the transition from world famous shoplifter to emcee and businessman?
R.L. : Well, even when I was a Shoplifter I was a business man. I literally operated a business and had over head, products, clientele and made huge profits. But here’s the funny thing, I never paid for my products sold. So I was a slick business man. It was the opposite for me. Instead of spending money or investing into the business I invested my time, travels and risk of my freedom being taken away. And that meant going to jail for my daily actions. So it was a real risky business. So the business side of things came naturally for me. But that’s how I went about doing business in my street days, now I approach business from a professional standpoint. The way it should be done”.
