” Sach Speaks “
It’s not often that you get a in-depth interview from SACH (The Nonce) like this…Consider yourself blessed….
“I’ll tell you this too. We went through several lives in hip-hop, me and Yusef. We started in the 80s. Yusef passed in the year 2000 and all the way up until then, say from sixteen to seventeen, we actually got signed to a label, as teenagers. So we were in the studio. We recorded a gang of music. We recorded every single day. It was like our life blood. And we were always producer minded, so we made stuff already in an album format. So we turned in albums to the labels and they never knew what to do with us. They didn’t understand that we are our own little thing, so promote us like that. Promote us like we are the shit, not like we’re copying something else. We’re our own entity. So we had lots of conflict with record labels and stuff because, like I said, they didn’t have the balls or didn’t have the foresight to make it what it really could have been”…
” RedLife : Repost “
*I don’t like to repost shit to much, but this goes out to my cuzzo MOBZ 1NER in Toronto…
Canada has a long history of putting out quality joints…Off the top of the dome I can drop a few names that made a impression on me over the years – MAESTRO FRESH WES, DREAM WARRIORS, BLACK EYE, MATHEMATIK, INCREDIBLE EASE (RIP), CHOCLAIR, SAUKRATES, CHECKMATE, and the heavily slept on outfit REDLIFE….
If you have never heard REDLIFE’s “BASHMENT”, your about to be in for a heavy surprise duke !!!
And while your at it – I highly suggest tracking down the “Who’s Talking Weight” 12 inch if you know what’s best for you…
” Solo 138 On The Breaks “
SOLO 138 (BRONX BOYZ) brings out the heavy arsenal of rare drums, disco breaks, doubles, and all types of B-Boy goodness on the recent “MACK” mix..60 minutes of nonstop body rockers on deck, so please do not sleep….
” New Shit On Deck “
“You just won the wet T-Shirt contest / I grab the beat by the harness, I’m heartless”…
OUCH…
Lo-Life repper SLICK BROWNSVILLE comes to the table with aggressive sniper bars on “What’s His Name” over YOGI LO production….Turn the volume levels up a few notches cuzzo….
“Iron Braydz : Iron Rod Stuart “
Straight from the UK comes this smooth as butter Summer jingle by IRON BRAYDZ “Iron Rod Stuart”…..God damn this beat is fresh….
Second track taken from Ironbraydz “Held For Ransom” EP which is set for independent release July 20th 2015.
” Summer Scorchers “
Through the years I have cultivated a ridiculous “LO” collection, but I was never truly fond of LO kicks until now….For instance these POLO SPORT Slaton Camo joints are right up my motherfucking alley…

*Photo – Custom Adidas VENDETTA VINYL Top 10’s with the GMV 1-3 wax backdrop….BLAM,BLAM, BLAMZ……
” Friday Pressure “
NITEBREED (not the one KA was affiliated with) were an obscure horrorcore outfit that had a couple cuts that activated my Hip Hop antennae….For instance “Meditation On Death” should make you want to toss someone smooth off a cliff….
If your on the hunt to cop the slept on NITEBREED “Prince Of Darkness” EP (1994 Reality Check ENT) be prepared to shell out 230 bucks….HAHAHA.
” Don Heroin Status “
“La Global Nostra” is my personal top ranking pick off the new joint from DON STREAT & MWP ft GRAZZHOPPA….

Mr.45 King blesses us with a two hour long interview session with the folks over at the CIPHER PODCAST….Consider yourself blessed cuzzo – back in the days I would have done almost anything to absorb these types of rare jewels….
” Badman Business “
Since it’s Monday and I know your scrambling around to find some power boosters to jump start your week – I highly suggest that you head to MATTNYCE’s podomatic page..
Under the radar Hip Hop mixes, and the heavily stacked “Raggamuffin” mix should do the trick….When you head over there tell him the grimey dude from HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD sent you jack !!!!
” Only For The Gifted & Lifted : Sach “
It’s inspiring to see one half of the Nonce “NOUKA BASSTYPE / SACH” remaining active after the loss of YUSEF AFLOAT (RIP)….I always thought they had a unique, dusted out, unorthodox approach to rocking that put them in their own lane..
On the “Only For The Gifted & Lifted” project SACH keeps the styling original..
” Breakbeat Overdose “
Peep this under the radar video by Pritt Kalsi that puts the spotlight on the breaks…Cameos by Afrika Bambaataa, Grandmaster Caz, Pogo, Charlie Chase, Cutmaster Swift, Grand Wizard Theodore, Jazzy J, etc….
” Boxcutter Brothers Pressure “
I happened to stumble onto this review of the BOXCUTTER BROTHERS (Ayatollah & myself) in XXL magazine on a whim….Just like many of the BATTLEFIELD readers I never bother flipping through this mag, but for some reason I decided to check it out and ended up spotting this article by CHAIRMAN MAO (Red Bull Music Academy, etc)….
Yeah, I can’t front I was totally caught off guard because Boxcutter Brothers is straight up ugly, boulevard barbarian type shit that I never thought in a million years would fit the criteria for such a glossy, pop culture mag…
HAHAHAHA…..
Anyway, click on the photo for further analysis….
” Monday Power Boost “
SCARCE ONE & SELECTA M from Germany provide the Summer soundtrack action on the ” Campaneros Mix “…..Over an hour of Soul power, Funk, and Reggae heat on deck troopers…
