" Monday Mixtape Madness "
This mix comes all the way from Germany from the ” Bad Underground Sounds Crew ” ( Hip To The Jazz )….One thing that I noticed from the gate is that every song is mixed…I have to give them two thumbs up for that on general principle…
They also snuck in some under the radar joints that will perk your ears up a little bit…
Here is the playlist cousin-
Afu-Ra – Do you want it (from OST Whole Train, produced by Florian Gaag – highly recommended!!!)
Major Stress – More and more
Sick Lyrical Damager – It’s over
People Without Shoes – Evil for eternity (Remix)
Greyboy – Freestylin’
The Pharcyde – My soul
Ghetto Philharmonic – Don’t bite the concept (94 Remix)
Red Hot Lover Tone – 98
Kwest The Mad Ladd – What’s the reaction (Remix)
Fierce – Crab
Blahzey Blahzey – Don’t let this rapshit fool ya
Drama Klub – Hear no evil
The Roots – It just don’t stop
Ras Kass – Miami life
Chop Shop – The tribute (Outro)
" Who Gives A Fuck About A God Damn Grammy ? "
Remember those infamous words from ” Flavor Flav ? ” ( Terminator X On The Edge Of Panic )….I do god damn it, and over twenty years later I believe in those words more than ever…
Fuck the Grammy’s !!!!!! Hip Hop was designed to go against the grain, nowadays cats are running to the mainstream for any type of hand-out they can get…
These are the nominees for best rap song…( What a fucking joke ).
Best Rap Song
Drake – “Best I Ever Had”
Kid Cudi – “Day ‘N’ Nite”
T.I. & Justin Timberlake – “Dead And Gone”
Jay-Z – “D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune)”
Jay-Z, Rihanna & Kanye West – “Run This Town”
Don’t get it twisted….I didn’t expect the Grammy nominations to be on point in the first place, that would be ridiculous…I’m just disappointed that the bar has gone down so low……Justin Timberlake is involved in a rap nomination for christ sake…
WOW….Jay-Z nominated twice for two horrible songs….WOW….What the fuck happened to Jay-Z ?….. WOW..
I can still remember the days when Hip Hop got absolutely no love at the Grammy’s….Public Enemy, Fresh Prince, M.C. Lyte, etc
actually boycotted that shit in the late 80’s….They had the right idea….
WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT A GOD DAMN GRAMMY ?
* UPDATE—–Damn I turned to the Grammy’s just to see how they started the show….HHHMMMM, just like I thought, some more weirdo behavior…They opened up with Lady GaGa & Elton John….HAHAHAHA……
Time to turn on my sampler and get grimey….
" 4 All The Wu- Headz : Part 5 "
For all the work 4th Disciple put in, you would think his name would get mentioned a lot more when cats are talking about top notch producers…
He goes straight to the vaults with this project (Best Of 740 Volume 1)…..
HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD TOP PICKS *

" 5 Friday Sure Shots "
Here are 5 joints to help jump start your Friday adventures…Boost the volume to ten, turn on your oscillating fan, grab a towel, and get ready for some flames…..
1. Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface- ” Our Dreams “..
For some reason I really like this joint..I can’t put my finger on it…If anyone else tried to rhyme on this type of joint I would most likely dismiss it…But somehow these three manage to make this Michael Jackson sample sound somewhat grimey..
2. Third Sight- Murder, Death, Kill..
WOW….D-Styles, Du-Funk, and the San Jose rhyme monster ” Jihad ” bring that west coast hardcore to the set….If you slept on this heater when it first dropped, here is your chance to get right !!!!!

5..Sadat X featuring Pete Rock- Turn It Up..
” The great dot X ” is back with the first leak off of the Wild Cowboys 2 album….This joint is starting to grow on me a little bit, hopefully the album provides that DOPE !!!!!!!
" Beat Junkie Sound "
Tonight I’m going to be checking out turntable wrecker, ” D.J. Babuuuuuuuuuuuu”…..It’s the first time I have seen him when it wasn’t a battle-type situation…I hear he is going to flip more of a party-rocker type of set so that should be very interesting…
One of my homeboys grew up with him, so just maybe I can get some exclusive shit to bless the HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD posse with in the near future…( YA HEARD ME )…
Regardless, I will let ya’ll know how it all went down…
AUDI 5000….A-B-C- YAAAAA…..GHOST…..SWAYZEE….
