” MF Grimm & Drasar Monumental Steez “
I’m finally back in Vietnam, California after a inspiring journey throughout the majority of the state…..
One of the highlights of my adventure was rocking a in store with MF Grimm at Access Hip Hop in San Diego to promote our project, ” GOOD MORNING VIETNAM “….
All types of people showed up to support…..Young, old, and everything in between….Big up to the homies from WILD STYLE TECHNICIANS who made it happen at a moments notice, and my brother from VENDETTA VINYL, “Mattrocks” for keeping the Hip Hop morale up !!
You can now purchase “GOOD MORNING VIETNAM” at Amazon, I-Tunes, Spotify, E-Music, Beathound, Access Hip Hop, Amoeba (SF), Amoeba (Berkley), Amoeba (Los Angeles), Rasputin (Berkley), the VENDETTA VINYL website, and many other fine record stores across the globe….
On another note , I noticed that some BOZOS are straight bootlegging while trying to act as if they are helping the cause……
FUCK YOU….
Some clown even posted the entire shit on you tube……I fully understand that we are living in a digital era, and cats feel a sense of entitlement when it comes to music, but let me make this one thing clear : you are not helping GRIMM or myself when you post “GMV” without offering a link for people to purchase the vinyl, STRAIGHT UP….
Yeah, I download like everyone else – but I still cop the wax version if I like what I’m hearing……These cats DON’T buy dudes records, they are just some weirdo blogger slouches that feel they should get stripes for posting new music….These cats don’t even give the music justice by writing a description or a critical analysis – they just post a cover, tracklist, and a download link….
FUCK YOU…..
Anyway, I’m in good spirits, the record is moving quickly, new beats are constantly being made, the world didn’t end like all those scared motherfuckers were yelling, my crates are getting chubbier, and I’m ready to start 2013 with a BANG,BANG,BANG……BANG..
Salute to everyone that has rocked with me on HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD for the last five years (I SEE YOU)…….
I highly recommend that you check out this review of “GOOD MORNING VIETNAM” by Claaa 7…..He went into vivid detail without all the extra cornball shit….Yeah he mispelled my name once or twice, but I could give a fuck less, at least he understood that this is a hardcore Hip Hop record for Hardcore Hip Hop dudes….
” 45 Action “
If your on the hunt for a healthy dose of soul power, funk tunes, grand grooves and all that other fly shit; look no further than this strictly 45 mix by Mr. Kenny Dope.

Don’t sleep, you might just learn something homepiss…
“In Part One of our interview he talks about his early days of Hip Hop from growing up in the Bronx and moving to Long Island at a young age. We discuss his start as a B Boy and how that transformed into him being intrigued with the turntables. He speaks in great detail about his early mentors from Long Island, DJ Will and DJ Hig. We find out how he first connected with Spectrum City, right around the time they were becoming Public Enemy and recording “Yo! Bumrush The Show.” He also gives a lot of history and his involvement in the early years of members of Leaders Of The New School; KB MC a.k.a Charlie Brown and Kid Craze a.k.a Busta Rhymes. He speaks about early work with UBC members: E Ski Spectacular and D-Nasty. He also gives a detailed glimpse of how he ended up doing cuts on Public Enemy albums and some details on his scratch credits”.
” New Shit On Deck “
“Classic Gangster” features vocals from the hardest working man in Hip Hop Sadat X, General Steele, and Louie Skaggs……
Produced by Maserati Marcus……CHECK IN….
” Tony Prince Speaks “
Rob Swift recently rocked a in-depth interview with Tony Prince (DMC) that is worthy of your attention.
“DJ Rob Swift: What you said about mega mixes is so true. When you think about it, a 6 minute DMC set is exactly that, a mega mix performed by a DJ in real time. So who were some of the other DJs that competed in the New Music Seminar battles whom you think were also pushing the boundaries of what DJs did back in the early years of organized competitions?
Tony Prince: Whiz Kid, Afrika Islam, Jazzy Joyce, Mixmaster Ice, Barry B, Cut Creator are some of the great hip-hop DJs running with the first pack at the Marriot Marquee Battle for World Supremacy.
DJ Rob Swift: All legends for sure. We’re there elimination rounds in the DMC pre – DJ Cheese era like now or were the competitors invited?
Tony Prince: There was only one championship through DMC before the 1986 Cheese year and it was only UK DJs (Roger Johnson won this). There was no scratching, just mixing in beat and in tune. A lot of DJs were tone-deaf and tried to mix music in two conflicting keys, it used to drive me crazy”.
” Tuesday Firepower “
I can’t recall if I posted this up when it first dropped. Regardless, the good people at DOPE FOLKS dropped this mix that showcases 16 cuts from their ever expanding catalogue…
