” Rest In Paint “

It’s unfortunate that our comrade PRIZE 6 is not here in the physical…
As I sit here and reminisce on his Bornday, I can’t help but feel that not only my team got robbed, but I feel that the world at large got robbed because he was truly a gifted artist, father, and overall good person that was headed for huge things…Unfortunately the heartless killers that took him from us have not been brought to justice and they are roaming free in the world while we are left to pick up the pieces…
Life has a funny way of dealing with scum that do not truly know the definition of repercussions and consequences…One day they will have to answer for their deeds…In the meantime I’m going to put some good energy into the universe and send out a prayer for his family….We miss you young lord and we will honor you by staying on our path…
RIP.
PRIZE was a force to be reckoned with when it came to those cans….Click on the photos to fully analyze the wreck, my dude was far from a slouch…






” Rev Shines : Today’s Good News 3 “

It’s been awhile since I have heard a sample source type mix that held my attention…This mix by REV. SHINES though “Today’s Good News” is packed with all types of uncommon joints that will keep you playing “Name That Tune” throughout the duration of the mix…
PEEP-
” New Shit On Deck “

Never heard of this cat CASABLANCA from Dallas, Texas but on “Careless Flaw’s he flexes a multi – syllable approach that is worthy of adding to the rotation…Production by Watkinz The General…
PEEP-

That dude SEBB just released his highly anticipated instrumental project “Imports”….I definitely heard a few beats that perked my ears up, do yourself a favor and listen on a booming system instead of shitty computer speakers for maximum effect!!

” It’s Not Who But What “

The creator of GOTHIC FUTURISM the late, extremely great forward thinking B-Boy scholar Ramemellzee is the subject of the soon to be released documentary by Red Bull Music “RAMMELLZEE : It’s Not Who But What”….AWWW man, this looks like it will truly be a certified classic…Peep the trailer and catch a motherfucking zone..RIP.
*RAMMELLZEE dedication piece by PART 2…NASTY!!!

” Master Killa : Real People “

With so much music dropping on a constant basis, even the flyest material can fall through the cracks or take heads years to catch up to speed…Even I can fall victim to this scenario, because I didn’t hear this heater by MASTA KILLA “Real People” feat Prodigy and King Krooked until today…Off the Loyalty Is Royalty album that dropped late last year….
” New Shit On Deck “

DBA brings the drama on this new joint “Million Dollar Slang Shit” with Recognize Ali & Born Unique…
“The long awaited follow up to DBA’s “Hollow Tips” featuring Conway the Machine, Planet Asia, and J Scienide is here. Baltimore boom bap producer DBA teams up with Recognize Ali and Born Unique to create “Million Dollar Slang Shit”! Mixed and Mastered by Toronto, Ontario Canada producer/engineer Futurewave. From the upcoming lp “Official Crate Music”, coming out later this year”.
” Happy Bornday : Big L “

Since I’m on the Bornday tip, gotta give a big shout out to one of the illest to grace the mic BIG L…It’s a shame that he didn’t get the full opportunity to develop because he was a certified problem…PERIOD…
Usually I don’t post up clips that are full of heresy and allegations- but I have to admit the recent documentary by INFO MINDS “The 139th St. NFL Crew” caught my attention…They go into two hours of detail about the crew that BIG L name dropped on several songs and the still unsolved murder of one of Harlem’s most gifted MC’s…
PEEP-
” Specs Wizard : The Sauco Tapes “

Happy Bornday to the triple threat from Seattle, the kid SPECS WIZARD…To usher in the holiday he decided to unearth some rare shit from 2011- “The Sauco Tapes” which rocks instrumentals and a few full fledge songs as well….Big up the whole 206 – RIP TALK SICK…..
” Milano : Attache Case “

MILANO CONSTATINE is back to burn with a new release ,the “Attache Case” pre-orders are up and running…Limited to 300 pieces, so you know the drill- if you snooze you will definitely lose cuzzo!!
*The cover art is very fresh by the way.
” Mood : Hustle On The Side “

“Hustle On The Side / Verbal Stampede” was MOOD’s first 12 inch, and if I’m not mistaken this is the first production credit for HI-TEK….This highly sought after slab of wax from 1995 will cost you a pretty penny (I have seen it sell for over 300 dollars)…
I recently stumbled onto the video for the first time….It truly captures that era with grainy images and lo-fi goodness…
” Monday Momentum “

Even though J-SCIENIDE released the “Actual Heat” over a year ago, I never sat with the album and gave it decent burn…After throwing it in the rotation last night a few joints instantly caught my attention….
Gotta give him daps for keeping it raw with no additives and preservatives….The wax is now available so scoop up a copy…
” Italian Groove Morale “

DUALISMO SOUND is a re-issue label that specializes in uncovering under the radar Italian flavors from 1976-1982…Andrea Dallera is the main dude and driving force behind the imprint…Recently he sat down with BAN BAN TON TON for a interview and also a guest mix spot that is flooded with all types of gems…
“In Italy, in the ’70s, experimenting was the norm. A lot of musicians – especially “institutional” musicians – used to have various side projects where they could freely create whatever they wanted. In the late ’70s you could find a Jazz maestro like Enrico Intra composing a “Sci- Fi Disco Funk” track with Tullio De Piscopo. Using just a Fender Rhodes and some heavy breaks. See Starbus. Franco Bonfanti, a television composer, going fuzzy with the Monk’s Group, which I think also included Sergio Farina. Rigol – Duilio Radici, another Jazzcat – with the conductorship of Atta creating the Jazz Funk joint, Human Strength. Paolo Zavallone was working with television orchestras, doing TV appearences and making Pop hits. But, when he joined with De Piscopo and Gigi Cappellotto – a legendary bassist, they created the masterpiece Yellow Fever. A curious fact is that I’ve recently spoken to both Zavallone and Intra for some interviews and both of them insist they it was they who discovered De Piscopo, when he was stationed in the North of Italy during his military service.
Recently I got really interested in Neapolitan Disco sounds, after hearing some mixes by local DJs such as Dnapoli and Famiglia Discocristiana. Napoli has a unique background in Italy, and it has always been the country`s “funkiest” city”.

” Ragga Rap 3 : Return Of The Dread “

Some of those explosive 90’s dancehall tunes sound just as good today as they did back then…Whenever I spin out and starting hitting motherfuckers over the head with a heavy dose of this era, it’s pure pandemonium in the spot without fail…
Luckily for us SUPERIX & JIMMY PLATES hit us with certain selections that aren’t played to death (You won’t hear Hot stepper,etc – HAHAHA) on the Ragga Rap mix….I don’t co- sign EVERY joint, but there is enough rare joints to perk your ears up a bit ……
