" Back To Burn "
Mr. Funk What Ya Heard and I are back on the set tonight for another round of live mixes, doubles, jokes and all that other fly shit…We have a couple surprises up our sleeve for tonight’s show, so do the right thing…
" New Slum Village E.P. "
You can hear the new E.P. in it’s entirety before it officially drops HERE
HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD TOP PICKS-
” Da Night “, and ” Money Right ” ( S.A.S. already rocked this Madlib production with the same exact name, HAHA )
" More Mixtape Ammunition "
Over here at ” HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD “, my motto is ” quality over quantity “….I’m not one of those thirsty bloggers that put up sub-par music just to fulfill some type of corny personal quota…
If I don’t like it, there is no reason to post it…So I spend countless hours sifting through the mundane, in order to unearth the golden nuggets that shine brightly enough to consider “HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD” worthy…
With that being said, this mixtape right here ( Breakfest ) is one of those golden nuggets that deserves your undivided attention..Baltimore’s ” Kool Breeze ” straight murdered it on this one…Breakbeats galore, doubles, crunchy drums, and sureshot selections make this my personal favorite mix of the week…
Two thumbs up, type shit…..YOU BETTER CHECK IN…
" Wax Weaponz 22, Remix Version Re-Up "
I know, I know…I haven’t made a ” Wax Weaponz ” mix in a couple months..Don’t trip though cousin, be on the lookout for a new one sometime in the near future…
It’s only right that I hit you off with ” WW 22 ” in the meantime…When I put this together, my goal was to pull out some of the illest remixes I have in my crates…This mix is all live, all records, all very flavorful…
So quit stalling duke, turn the volume past ten, bless yourself up, and prepare for collision…
Big shout to manz ” State ” (GBK) for convincing me to put this back up…
Here is the playlist…POW,POW….

" Attack Of The Killer Demos, Part 2 "
Ras Kass is one of the illest from the west side of things to ever do it…It’s a shame that he chooses to rock over sub-par beats lately, because if the kid had decent production, I believe he could still make a tremendous amount of noise out there…
Anyway, check out these demos that didn’t make the cut for his debut album, ” Soul On Ice “…In my opinion these songs should have been included…
” Core Audience “

” Walk The Walk “

" Beats That Collected Dust 2 "
If you thought volume one was nasty, volume two is going to blow you right out of your timberlands..This is only a sampler, be on the lookout for the official release sometime soon JACK !!!!!!
Props to DJPB….
" Mixtape Mayhem "
Tired of corny ass, so-called mixtapes that don’t even rock any
blends ?….Are you growing tired of so-called mixtapes where the D.J. screams his head off on every single track ?
I am too my man…
That’s why you better swoop up this mixtape by “Muro” & “K-Prince”…..When I picked this up a couple years back, I was impressed by the composition, flow, selection and creativity of this mix…It has aged very well and I still blast it in the system on certain occasions..
DO NOT SLEEP…( These aren’t the same golden era joints that your used to hearing over, and over again )
" A Few Good Laughs, Part 4 "
Awww man, this has to be the funniest shit I have seen all week.”JS-1″ pops up on the ” Regis & Kelly ” show for a awkward experience ( to say the least )….

" Quick Download "
Well it looks like the big homie, ” Phil Most Chill ” is off hiatus….Last weekend he dropped the very impressive ” Beautiful ” mix..If your looking for some quality selections to get you through the work week, I suggest you swoop this up JACK !!!!!
Here is what Phil had to say regarding the project…
” I was at the Old Country Buffet (one of my favorite eating spots- I’m cheap) awhile back and I noticed one of the employees, a barely legal if even legal at all young dude, hitting on a customer, a cute late 30-ish older woman. She rebuffed his advances, claiming that she was too old for him. Young dude, undeterred, stared her in the eye and calmly replied “I know what I like.” Gotta give it to the youngin’- swag for days.
That’s kinda how I feel about psych rock, which is my current favorite genre of music to listen to. I probably don’t really know a damn thing about psych- every time I look up info on a psych album online, the reviews rarely sing the praises of the songs on the album that I like the most. They’ll talk about the genius of some song on the lp that I’m not familiar with, then I’ll go back to the record to listen to this song and be like WTF is this? Obviously I’m not hearing it from a true psych enthusiasts’ perspective. Which I guess makes sense, since I’m a black first generation Hip Hop dude… I didn’t grow up on Zep or Sabbath or the Beach Boys or Zappa or even Hendrix. I grew up on James Brown and Earth Wind & Fire and Stevie Wonder and the Furious 5.
Yet and still, I know what I like. Music with soul, music that touches you somewhere deeper than the epidermis. And any real music head knows that soul isn’t just found on albums that have pics of dudes with afros on the jacket. I hear the soul in Aretha Franklin but I also hear it in Rachmaninoff’s 2nd. In fact, “hear it” isn’t the best way to put it- I feel it. That’s what music is all about, man… people can tell you all day that this is the hot schitt, this is what’s banging now, whateva whateva, but it doesn’t matter. Music isn’t a popularity contest, it’s not about soundscan numbers, it’s only about what you feel or don’t feel. No matter what I say about something being THATREALSCHITT, if you can’t feel what I’m feeling then it’s a waste of time even trying to explain it.
So anyway, enough of my yadda-yadda-ing. Yes, it’s true- I’m dropping another new Soulman mix a mere three days after the last new Soulman mix. Guess the hiatus is officially over, eh? This one, entitled Beautiful, basically picks up where The Truth Is Forever left off. Just playing a bunch of soft, mellow psych songs that I really love. Familiar folky stuff that the Vashti Bunyan and Linda Perhacs fans out there may already know and love but also some other very nice tunes that only the most hardcore psych dudes are gonna be hip to. This joint may be too light for the more gnarly real schitters, and my Hip Hop real schitters can probably just fuggetaboutit, but I’m hoping folks will dig this (Beautiful Pt. 2 and maybe even Pt. 3 are on deck already, so if y’all are feelin’ it more will be dropped ASAP). Thanks for listening “.
