Last year Academy / Voodoo Funk joined forces to re-release the heavy “APOSTLES” 7inch…Originally only two copies were made, so it made perfect sense to spread this brand of explosive African heat to the masses…
Get your copy HERE….
*The open drum break on “Onye Akba” is just ridiculous…
A few years back One Leg Up Records pressed up 200 copies of the Beat Nuts “Intoxicated Demos” project…This is a snapshot of classic material that was recorded from 1991-1993…
If you weren’t able to snatch up a vinyl copy when it dropped – here is your chance to check in trooper…
Yesterday I stumbled onto a mixtape by Wu-affiliate, BLACK MARVEL ( BM Ultra)……Some of the production on this project didn’t compliment his style, but there were a couple tracks that definitely caught my attention….
You know it’s going to be a good day when you get to hear a live set from the DITC underboss, LORD FINESSE….
Hurry up and download this before it reaches capacity trooper…
“If Lord Finesse was a baseball player he’d be in the Robert Hall of Fame for his Triple Crown record in hip-hop. Whether he’s on the microphone, drum machine, or turntables, you know he’ll be chasing that MVP crown. Last month The Underboss and Slice Of Spice hit Japan for the ‘Soundwave Tour’ where Finesse tore it up on the 1s and 2s. We recorded a live 2 hour set on 2.14.13 in Tokyo and as promised we’re sharing it with all his fans in two FREE DOWNLOAD installments. ENJOY!”
I usually don’t post up “freestyles” of cats rhyming over previously released instrumentals, but I will make an exception for Eddie Cheeba from BOSS MONEY / MONEY BOSS PLAYERS…
You already heard Ghostface get busy over this track, now peep the BRONX BOMBING version…
DEFARI’S newest offering the “Lost Tapes Of Ruby-D” definitely had it’s moments….If he is thinking about putting this on vinyl, I would rock these two songs as singles..
*Glad to see this Likwit Crew member still doing his thing..
Now this is more like it..
” Matter of fact take your ass to the back dog / or get your god damn mustache clapped off “….
Booze Brother, “CLEVER ONE” links up with former Tuff Crew DJ, “TOO TUFF” for some good old fashioned Philly monster rap on “Homicidal Rhymes”…
If your growing tired of listening to all these Hip Hop weasels whispering on tracks, take a listen to this new shit for a power boost….
Just when you think you have seen it all, these cats flip the script and keep the spirit of B-Boy innovation alive..
When I first watched this clip from the IBE 2012 sessions I almost lost my marbles..
Do yourself a favor and peep the illness..
Yeah brotherman the weekend is here once again, so it’s only right that I point you in the direction of some Friday night theme music….
Scoop up this mix by “Mr. Consistently Funky”, KENNY DOPE…
Catch a groove.

If you googled “Black I” on the internet, you would be hard-pressed to find any info about this Toronto M.C. who passed away before he received his proper due…
When I first heard this song (No Laws) in 1996, I knew for a fact that I was hearing some NEXT SHIT !!!!! The way he rhymed was absolutely crazy, and his flow was 100 % dangerous…I have been on a mission for over ten years to find anything that he has released . If you guys out there have some hidden Black I treats, or any stories about the man, please don’t hesitate to shoot me some information…
“No Laws”- From the Beat Factory Rap Essentials compilation…
* Recently the producer of NO LAWS hit me up, which made my day….PEEP.
“yo i wanna say respect first yo for giving it up for black i ,this is vince price aka Drk the man behind black i’s music and friend for 19 years deep. again respect from me to yall keep on reppin the real”.
And just to keep it 100 here is the video for “Where I’m From”..RIP.
Just got off the phone with my man SELFISH (Green Llama) and he informed me that he just dropped his new instrumental project, “Wavez”…..
I can honestly say that I haven’t heard ANYTHING like this…..It’s a departure from the sound found on UNKUT RAW, but it’s still challenging and original at the same time…
If your on the hunt for some bugged out frequencies – you just found it homeboy….
