Just got a nice vinyl package from those dudes out in BODYMORE (Six Two Six Records)….
Doubles of the very ill Steve Colossal 7inch “The City That Bleeds”, doubles of the Constant Deviants EP “The All Nighter”, and last but not least, 7 inch doubles of the highly explosive Constant Deviant cut, “Fulton Street”…..
M.I. launches a hefty mic attack with lines like – “Efficiency, can’t be deficient in these streets / or be history”…..SAY WORD..
PEEP..
This instrumental project by X-Ray (Monster Island Czars) originally dropped in 09, but for some strange reason it didn’t get the attention that it deserved….
It is loaded with well crafted samples, heavy drums, etc…If you missed it the first go-round, YOU KNOW THE MOTHERFUCKING DRILL..
“X-Ray da Mindbenda has returned with a series of dope Beats and Skits appropriately tittled “The Ear Hustler” to be released worldwide on Mindbenda/Ioda/Sony on Nov 17th 2009.
Known for his dark and cinamatic beat scapes on project’s with MF Doom, Monsta Island Czars and Darc Mind. X-Ray’s music on the documentary feature Flim “On the Ropes” has won him a Sundance Flim Festival Award and was nominated for a Oscar in 1999.
His music is also featured on the “Soul in the Hole” Soundtrack (Loud Records). With his group Darc Mind “The Ear Hustler” is the first Solo Instrumental album entirely produced by X-Ray “…..
DJ S-KY comes correct on this mix that features a gang of under the radar cuts, interesting doubles, blends, etc….”Special Roasted Beans” clocks in at over an hour with a nonstop barrage of action…
Do yourself a favor and start your week off on the right foot….DONT SLEEP JACK !!!
Earlier this morning I gave this all – break mix by Rob Swift (Back To The Bay) a decent listen….Impressive indeed..
This is the type of joint that you have to check out from front to back…
Doubles, well timed cuts, and all that other fly shit…
“Uncut Raw” is easily one of the best albums to come out in the last four years….
Selfish & Fluent managed to create a timeless piece of art that deserves repeated listening…Creative lyricism, bugged out, off kilter sample wreckage, and well though out concepts….If you look at the cover you might just sleep on checking it out, but trust me – this album is packing extreme heat (can we please get that “Uncut Raw part 2 fellas)…
Over the years I have developed a friendship with Selfish….He is a interesting, humble, Chicago native that has his own steez…I rocked a interview with him awhile back (Selfish if your reading this I am headed to back to Chicago next month, so hit me up so we can do some more heavy digging famz)…
And while your at – you might as well download “Uncut Raw”…..They are offering a free download of the project over at GREEN LLAMA MUSIC for a limited time so you better not sleep jack !!!….

HipHop Lives”
*Click on the flyer for further analysis..
Sometimes I wonder if motherfuckers pay attention to lyrics anymore….
Yeah, I check for beats like everyone else, but if you can sync up explosive beats with well thought out bars you will get my undivided attention…So from now on, once every week I will hit ya’ll with ten quotables that I think deserve some shines…
Keep in mind that this is some off the dome mental rolodex shit….Hip Hop is always banging in my brain so I don’t have to flip through the stacks to pull this off…..
Now that I got that out of the way – walk with me real quick..
1..” Since everything is 3D nowadays / my rhymes jump out and punch a nigga in the face “……..P.I.R. “No Happy Endings”.
2…” In the minds of the insane I’m in the hall of fame / music equals murder it’s the same thing “…..MF GRIMM “Take ‘Em To War, original version”..
3….” You want to stare at me, you want to glare at me / but I handle my beef like American Me “………MF GRIMM “Take ‘Em To War,original version…
4…” Fuck the ransom, bullets start dancing / seen a nigga dead they had him looking handsome “……PRETTY TONE CAPONE “Kidnapped”..
5..” Last dice game I was up a grand / shots sound, gave my man a pound but I didn’t touch his hand “….KA “Vessel”.
6..” Fiery words from the page / get summoned like souls from the grave “……BODY SNATCHERS “MC Killer”..
7…” Keep ’em wildin like I’m out on bail / if you fail to plan, you plan to fail “……TRYBAL MEN “Down Like That”..
8..” There used to be money in the hood / but then crabs started having baby crabs,and all those niggas wanted to be Scarface”.
BUMPY KNUCKLES “Nevaputmyfocusaway”..
9..” Black cars glide like flying carpets / the 40 will lay you out like a starfish “……ROC MARCIANO “Emeralds”…..
10..” Rappers tail spinning, mayday, from their heyday like JJ Evans / I spit AK47’S…….PHESTO DEE “Emblem”….
That’s it for now ya’ll……More wreck on deck here at the BATTLEFIELD this week, so you better not sleep (that rhymed by the way HAHAHA)…..
I’m not going to even address that Mobb Deep situation that is supposedly popping off…
WHY ?
1..I don’t know either one personally, so I’m not going to front like I know anything about their inner workings, relationship, or sexual preferences……HAHAHAHA…
2..Even though I am one of their biggest supporters (take a listen to my Mobb Deep remix tribute on the right side of the blog if you think I am bullshitting) I haven’t heard a complete Mobb Deep album that left an impression on me in years….Don’t get it twisted : “Return Of The Mac”, “H.N.I.C. 1&2” had some burners on it, but as far as a unit goes – I’m not hearing the hunger that I used to hear from them…
Anyway, let’s talk about another MOB that put out a limited amount of material, but shut shit down with their brand of Boston hardcore…
DJ Format gives one of my favorite groups (TDS Mob) the remix facelift for “Bounce”, which utilizes a heavy dose from The Ultimate Breaks & Beats stash….
Those dudes from Diggers With Gratitude keep it on the rise once again…
In case you didn’t know, “Blog Shots” is where I send you in the direction of another other site that is holding the goods….Mr. BATTLEFIELD is not selfish and I don’t mind sprinkling ya’ll with jewelry…
HAHA…
I recently stumbled onto PF. Cuttin’s Soundcloud page…..Mixes, exclusives, and some very fresh instrumentals that made my Hip Hop radar go off…For instance, “When I Slapped Somebody on Metropolitan Avenue on My Birthday” sounds like the soundtrack to a killing spree…BLAM, BLAMZ…
This collection of goodies was assembled by a cat that used to run the excellent HHCS blog (Estaban)…..If your on the hunt for some boulevard bully theme music – you just found it trooper…
Big up to everyone that comes through on the daily..
