” Hip Hop At The End Of The World “
Ernie Paniccioli just released another book flooded with rare Hip Hop flicks that will make you catch a zone…Big up to Ernie for keeping those flames lit after all these years…
“With exclusive, behind-the-scenes access, preeminent photographer Brother Ernie captures the last four decades of the evolution of hip-hop–the styles that grew from it, and the artists who shaped it. Complete with Brother Ernie’s personal anecdotes of time spent with subjects, and stories behind the photographs, Hip-Hop at the End of the World shares intimate moments from the most important era of hip-hop.
After picking up a camera in the 1973 to document the graffiti art that dominated New York City, Ernest Paniccioli started his journey of whole-heartedly capturing the scene during the most fertile years of hip-hop. Always armed with a 35mm camera, he successfully photographed nearly every rapper of note since the genre’s inception, making him the go-to photographer for magazines like Word Up and Rap Masters. Hip Hop at the End of the World is a carefully curated selection of photographs from Brother Ernie’s extensive archives, celebrating over 40 years of swag in one of the most complete records of the most crucial movements in American music”.

” DJ Fleg : Japan Funk & Breaks – Reup “
At this point HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD is at the ten year mark….It kinda bugs me out when I think about it because in this day and age most people are narcissistic , self centered, robots that are only concerned with their own movements – it is obvious that I am cut from a different cloth and I will continue to not only promote others, but make it my daily duty to seek out inspirational material…
Thanks to everyone that checks in on the regular (I see you)….We ain’t going nowhere troop, we just begun so stay in tune….With ten years of post sometimes quality joints get lost in the sauce, so its only right that I repost this heavy breaks session by DJ FLEG…Catch a groove.

” Oakland Black Out 2 “
KUFU ONERZ (GFC/NSA/ BOOM SKWAD) is responsible for the majority of the artwork we have dropped on our records..The difference between him and a lot of writers is that he was born into the artform (His older brother is J-Swift who is the MC behind the rare “Dealing With Aces” holy grail 12 inch)..If your in the Bay area head over to the 14street art supply shop in Oakland and pay homage to his explosive hand styles, color schemes, and all that other wild shit!!!!!!! – SIDE NOTE- This MF GRIMM and DRASAR 7inch sold out with a quickness back in 2013…Be on the lookout for a new assault by us in the very near future…

” New Acid Test : Jus Allah “
Whenever I’m on a long drive I tend to look for interesting podcast to check out…Sometimes we take it for granted but we are extremely lucky and fortunate to hear some of our favorite artist fully open up in great detail about what makes them tick..I can vividly remember a time when the public had very limited access into artist lives…
That wild dude JAK PROGRESSO has a podcast (New Acid Test) that is kinda bugged out in a off kilter- impromptu, scatter brain type of way…He recently had JUS ALLAH as a guest and it was interesting on many levels….Jus breaks down why he left JEDI MIND TRICKS, views on today’s Hip Hop climate, history, future, and all types of shit that should keep you locked in….
***Ten points deducted from JAK for interrupting JUS nonstop through the course of this interview….HAHAHAHAHA

Ever since the birth of my second child (Kingston), I have to admit that my shoe copping days have nearly come to a close…Luckily for me my stash game is pretty monstrous…With the recent release of these scorching Puma / Bobbito joints I might have to come out of retirement and set dudes on fire on the ave…
