" Polo Mania, Part 3 "
Philly Lo-Life reppers Him-Lo & Clever-One (Booze Brothers) are steadily impressing me with their brand of no-nonsense, hardcore, RL rap….These two have a classic chemistry that I do not hear too often anymore…
Earlier this year I posted up their very ill “Polo Stampede” joint, now your going to get another heater entitled, “Tag Team Tactics” that will perk your ears up with lines like,
” Run in a bank with a hockey mask, the black Johnny Cash / hit you with the four then your body’s splashed “……BLAM.
And while your at it, peep this cut that features Him Lo & Clever One on the Volcano Wakes Up album that dropped in September….”House Of 1000 Hatchets” produced by Denom…
" Under The Radar – J Love Editions "
You can say whatever you want regarding J-Love’s rhymes, but when it comes to production he has been knocking out fresh, drum heavy beats for quite some time…
Yesterday while sifting through the chubby crates at the crib – I stumbled onto a piece of wax I haven’t listened to in awhile…
“Warfare” featuring Masta Ace with “J” on the boards…
Listen up..

" For Those That Like To Groove, Part 27 "
Sure it’s getting extra frigid outside, but this compilation of grooves will melt your ears off….Turn the volume up and prepare for some Brazilian steamers…
“Compiled by UK DJ Patrick Forge, The Brazilian Funk Experience hooks into Patrick’s personal love affair with the funky 70s Brazilian sound, digging deeper than deep into the respected EMI Odeon Label. Here he presents 20 solid gold Brazilian nuggets, most as rare as hen’s teeth and on CD for the first time. Strangely every melody and jazz break sounds sooo familiar… might just be you’ve heard it on a radio show or at a club round London town. And it might just have been Patrick or one of his followers that was spinning tunes behind the decks at the time. So people, get on your Rio shoes and enjoy the grooves”.

" Roc Marciano – Emeralds "
This is the first leak from the “Reloaded” album that should be dropping in December…
Roc stays consistent by dropping explosive joints like this…To me it sounds like “Scarface Nigga” somewhat, but I’m not complaining..
Peep.
“Emeralds” produced by Arch Druids……
" Drasar On The Beats – Remix Weaponry Re-Ups "
Even though you could easily find this on the right side of the blog, I’m going to repost this for all of you motherfuckers that are looking for some certified shock treatment…
Earlier this year I took the time to remix some Mobb Deep joints to put my own dirty spin on things…..My goal was to make it as ugly as possible, rock only records, make it cinematic, and scare the living shit out of the suckers who think they make raw beats…….
Nothing more, nothing less…
I believe my goal was accomplished….It took me quite some time to put this together : Numerous mixdowns (300 tracks mixed down to one is no joke), boosting levels, rearranging beats, inserting movie samples, mad overdubs, etc….
The response has been more than I ever anticipated…….Dudes have hit me up all over the globe saluting the wreck involved with this project, (Remix Weaponry) and I sincerely appreciate all the support, words of encouragement, and various blogs reposting it….Feel free to post it up again…
So without further delay, here is my dedication to one of the greasiest crews to ever rock, “Mobb Deep”……If you haven’t heard this before here is your chance to get up to speed, and if you have heard it-listen again and get your god damn mind right..
BLAM,BLAM…..
" Scratch Overdose Steam "
Scratch sentences have the capability to turn an average song into a full fledge banger….
Remember when MC’s did tribute songs to their DJ ? DJ’s are a critical piece in the Hip Hop puzzle and when you take them out of the equation – you lose…..PERIOD….
That’s why after many years of DJ’ing I still practice on my scratches…Not only to add to my productions, but to stay sharp with my patterns and keep up with the various new styles of cutting that have popped off over the years…..Your never going to catch me sounding like Eric B on the cuts..
HA!
Anyway, Toad Styles is a god damn beast when it comes to getting busy…..Take a listen to this scratch project he put out awhile back that deserves repeated spins….
GET YOUR SCRATCH PATTERNS UP..
And while your at it peep this clip of “TS” & D-Styles totally wrecking shit…
Big up to my manz Big Danz…
" Nineteen Ninety More "
Even though I heard the Hiero Crew rock this same sample years ago, Buckwild’s version packs more of a punch…..Next week Celph Titled & Buck will drop the “Ninteen Ninety Now” E.P. and this is the first leak..
“While You Slept” featuring Laws…
" Wright Brothers Mixtape "
Back in the early 2000’s I went to a Raekwon show with his crew Ice-Water (Polite, Stomach, Cigar, PC, & DC) as the openers…..After cracking a couple jokes with the Chef I got hit off with this Wright Brothers mixtape….
Included were exclusives, remixes, etc…
Some of the production is a little too keyboard-ish for my taste, but some of the material does bang pretty well….You know the motherfuckin drill…
HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD TOP PICKS-
New Day, Clientele Kids, Lex Exclusive, We Know Niggas, Rae Freestyle, Family Matters, and 30.
" Library Records Wreck "
If your an avid Hip Hop Battlefield reader you already know about my affinity for library records, especially ones that were made in the 70’s…..
Why ?
Because some of them are packed with crazy dramatic textures that are ripe for chopping, looping, and stretching out…..For instance, this Bruton masterpiece “Dramatic Action” will keep you on the edge of your seat….So click on your samplers and go for broke kid !!

" The Bomb Squad Speaks "
While scoping out the Ego Trip blog (Chairman Mao) I spotted an interview with one of my main production influences, Hank & Keith Shocklee (Bomb Squad)….
When they came out with their “Wall of Sound” approach they instantly rearranged what I thought a Hip Hop producer was….They were so unpredictable with their beats that you never knew what types of sounds you would hear….
CM- ” That style was reflected in the hectic nature of your production as well—the interludes, the dense, multi-layered walls of sound.
Keith: I think that came about because we was excited about what we were doing and we wanted to keep everybody’s attention. Being DJs and understanding the dance floor, we knew that when your record’s not full, it becomes stagnant. We liked to put stuff in a record so later on, after you heard the record like 12 times, you’d be like, “Yo, I didn’t know they put that in there!”
But the thing was, we put in stuff that made sense. I seen a lot of people copy the stuff that we were doing, but it just didn’t fit their records. We never put anything in a record that didn’t fit the record. We went through a lot of samples. A lot of samples! We liked confusion, but we still kept it at a point where it was danceable, it didn’t crowd anything and you always understood the song “.
