” Battlefield Funk Radio : Remix Edition “
Planet Rocka (FUNK WHAT YA HEARD) and I rocked the BATTLEFIELD FUNK radio show on U-Stream from 2009-2011…We splashed cyber-space with Hip Hop trivia, nonstop jokes, and live turntable abuse…
NOTHING was rehearsed or premeditated…..
We recorded over 30 shows of pure Hip Hop chaos (check the archives)…..On this particular episode that I’m going to post up today we paid homage to one of our homeboys that had recently passed away (Mike Dot)…..RIP.
At the 17 minute mark I open up my production vaults and launch a hour and a half remix assault….If your on the hunt for some heavy frequencies, you just found it trooper…..
*”BFFR” isn’t over yet, we promise to resurface at some point this year….
” Under The Radar : Chicago “
Back in the mid 90’s my homeboy out in Chicago (BIG MATTS) helped run a studio that recorded all types of people; Akbar, Longshot, etc…
One of that cats that he recorded and produced for was STEVIE ALI…
I hate to make comparisons but to my ear STEVIE sounds like a mix between Lakim Shabazz and LATEE (which isn’t a bad thing HAHA)…
What your about to hear is some straight up Chicago secret society rap…..You would be hard-pressed to find this anywhere..
” Monday Morale “
I’m going to transport you back to 2007 for one of AZ’s best offerings (MEMPHIS SESSIONS)…..
Sure you have heard Al Green tracks looped up, and I’m quite positive you have heard the “Education of Sonny Carson” sampled before, but AZ manages to breath new life into these concepts by flowing effortlessly with finesse and agility…..
TRACKLIST-
1. I Am The Truth
2. AZ Interlude
3. Sit ‘Em Back Slow feat. MOP
4. The Format
5. New York feat. Ghostface & Raekwon
6. Get High
7. Make Me feat. Fresh
8. Envious feat. Bounty Killer
9. The Come Up
10. Games
11. Rise And Fall feat. Little Brother
12. Doin’ That
13. Game Of Life
14. Vendetta feat. Fresh
15. The Realest w/ Kool G Rap
16. This Is What I Do
17. Life
18. Seems That Way
19. You Know
20. The Love Of Money
21. Damn It Feels Good
” Hawaiian Funk Mode “
“If you think Hawaii is all about surfing and volcanoes, then you are wrong. It’s about surfing, volcanoes, and soul, jazz and funk. Roger Bong is the 50th state’s crate digger supreme, collecting records that are almost too obscure to be true. After releasing five mixtapes in 2012, this exclusive mix for DJhistory means he goes one better than Hawaii Five-O”.
” Large Pro Drops Gems “
The people from BLAP ON THE RADIO caught up with Large Pro for a in depth two hour interview that will hold your attention…
CHECK IN..
” MF Grimm & Drasar Monumental : Be Noble 7inch “
You can still pre-order the “Be Noble / Time” 7inch over at VENDETTA VINYL….
Only 250 autographed copies are being pressed up, so don’t snooze because orders are coming in at an alarming rate homeboy….Big up to everyone that supported the “GOOD MORNING VIETNAM” project (WE SEE YOU)…
PEEP-
1…KEVIN BEACHAM 5TH ELEMENT WRITE UP.
3…DAZE ROC – WILD STYLE TECHNICIANS
5..MF GRIMM INTERVIEW WITH UNKUT..
GRIMM and I have all types of surprises up our sleeves for 2013 so keep your motherfucking eyes peeled..
” Under The Radar Rockets “
You know it’s going to be a good day when you get to hear unreleased Big Daddy Kane & Ultra Mag joints….This has been floating around in cyber-space for a few weeks, but I haven’t posted it up till now…
Quit stalling homepiss and scoop this up with a quickness…
A1. Big Daddy Kanye “Sing My Song”
A2. Big Daddy Kanye “Give A Demonstration”
B1. Ultramagnetic MCs “Simple Metaphore”
B2. Ultramagnetic MCs “Ain’t It Good To You” remix
” Zulu Smurf On The Rise “
ZULU SMURF (Zulu Kingz) consistently impresses me with his approach to B-Boying……His style is well rounded, which makes it easy for him to destroy dudes that rely on smoking mirrors on the floor….
Peep this battle where he displays true B-Boy character, swift footwork, etc.
” Vocabulary Spill, 7 “
* Above pic KUFUE ONERZ & MYSELF.
1…..Who would of ever though that in 2013, during black history month, YOUR boy LIL WAYNE would use his struggle bars to spew sucker lines like ” Beat that pussy up like Emmett Till “….
WOW..
I’m far from a prude – I’m actually a hardcore Hip Hop ambassador, but this type of shit is just pathetic straight up and down….But what’s even worse is that cats are stuck talking about the comments dude made about the Miami Heat, instead of the disrespect he showed towards Emmett Till’s family (and any other THINKING person for that matter)….
2…Does the term “SELL OUT” mean anything in 2013….I came up in a era where if you danced for KFC chicken (MC Hammer), crooned your heart out for Burger King crispy chicken sandwiches (Mary J Blige), or co-opted your vision in any way whatsoever with moves that contradicted your true beliefs – we would label you a sell out and blow the whistle on you…
But these new age slime balls will justify their actions by simply declaring that they are ” on the grind “…….GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE….
3…Payola is in full effect people…….
Some of your favorite blogs are getting secret envelopes with dirty money stuffed in it, dudes are collaborating with full blown suckers to get a check, cornball crews are getting opening slots on big shows because they are paying promoters for a “good look”, etc……YOUR NOT FOOLING ANYBODY..
4…DJ’S ARE THE BEST PRODUCERS..
It seems very odd to me that some dudes declare themselves HIP HOP producers when they don’t have a DJ’ing background whatsoever……I don’t care how musically inclined you think you are, if you haven’t spent a lengthy amount of time behind those decks your beats will have a heavy Hip Hop deficiency….PERIOD..
5….If you have some heat that you have been cooking up in the lab, send it over to ZJUDAH@YAHOO.COM and I will give it a thorough listen….
” Be On The Lookout “
Be on the lookout for MILANO’S upcoming album “Boulevard Author” with production by those dudes the P-Brothers (this will be one of the best albums of the year without a fraction of a doubt)…..
I’m quite sure you have seen the snippet video of the first leak, ” What Kind Of Shit You Want “, now you can download the track cousin…..BLAM,BLAM,BLAM….
” Hip Hop Treats “
One of the things that I value about my posse is that we constantly bless each other with Hip Hop treats…..Within the last two months I got laced with the DANGERZONE MOBB SQUAD Dope Folks record, a Eddie Hazel album (Game, Dames, and Guitar Thangs), a fly STUSSY bomber jacket, MAESTRO FRESH WES’S book, “Stick To Your Vision”, etc….
Don’t get it twisted; we don’t GIVE looking for something in return (that would be a loan), we GIVE because we believe in Hip Hop morale….
You gotta keep your motherfucking Hip Hop morale up at all times regardless of what’s going on in life (YA HEARD ME)….
I recently spotted this ill KOOL G.RAP “Live & Let Die” puzzle that caught my attention….It’s a perfect gift if your on the hunt for some treats…
” Body Snatching “
Here is a 17 minute piece on Icepick who was affiliated with the UK hellraisers, HI-JACK……If you are unfamiliar with his brand of hardcore, I highly recommend that you give the Body Snatchers “MC KILLER” a thorough listen…
PEEP..
The Icepick Rev: 13:9 – Interview 09/2012 from pritt on Vimeo.
” 2013 Sure Shot “
Hip Hop is alive and well in 2013…
Next time one of those “THROWBACK BROTHERS” tries to tell you that there has been no fly shit out since 1996 – tell him to get his motherfucking mind right…
The only difference between back in the day and now is that you have to actively seek quality Hip Hop out…..It’s not going to just fall in your lap like it used to when you could catch a TIM DOG video on MTV – you have to search a little harder, and if your persistent enough you will discover all types of treats….
Support all these “limited edition” labels that still press up wax……If the record buyers at your local stores aren’t on the pulse of the new fresh shit – go online to cop what you need if you have to…….
Anyway let me get off my soapbox and get to the goods:
Peep this 2013 rocket from THESE HANDZ – Featuring MIKEY D “Wake Up”…..I’m digging this one… Fly drum work, ill scratch sentence flavor, and both MC’s stick to the concept of the song…..WIN….
