" Halftime Radio Show – 10/12/11 "

Mr. JS-1 stopped by the Halftime Radio Show (Skizz, Eclipse,Petey Cologne, etc) for a session that rocked all new new Hip Hop joints..

“I tried to play whatever newer tracks i had that i liked personally. There are some songs i forgot to play, couldn’t fit in or didn’t have clean versions. This is a decent straight up mix, recorded live from the radio show (i edited out the talking parts) with almost 2 full hours of treats. There is new songs from Common, Kool Keith, Bumpy Knuckles & Premier, Torae & Pete Rock, Showbiz & AG, Evidence, Rasheed Chappell, Maffew Ragazino, PH, and an exclusive KRS song i did that was never played before. There is lots of alright hip hop available and most of it is for free! You just need to search around a bit and get familiar with which sites to check and what names to look for. I got 1,000 new songs in the past few months and most of them are horrible, but 10% is ok. That still leaves me with 100 good tracks. Anyways, here is 44 tracks of brand new hip hop, cut up live on HALFTIME RADIO,

" Breakbeat Lou Speaks "

Lean Rock (Floor Lords) caught up with one of the main forces behind the Ultimate Breaks and Beats series, “Breakbeat Lou” – for a round of critical information, breakbeat history, and all types of fly shit….

You do not want to sleep on this one JACK !!!!!!

“Lean: I loved looking at the artwork on the UBB record sleeves, and I always wondered how you guys came up with some of the ideas for the covers. What was the significance behind the different characters or themes you guys would chose for your record sleeves?

Lou: Our crew was in tune with the culture, and with each other. Kevin Harris was the man behind the artwork. He was Danny Dan the BeatMan’s (founder of Dusty Fingers) boy, and Beatman was the one that referred him to us. Kevin had some dope art to begin with, and he was a true hip-hop head! All we did was fine-tune some of his skills to reflect the UBB style”.

And while your at it you might as well peep this mix from Lean Rock (Lord Of The Drums)…….

" Sach 5th Ave "

After the unfortunate passing of Yusef Afloat, one time Nonce member Nouka Basetype AKA “Sach” has continued to craft his original brand of Hip Hop….

In 1998 he dropped “Seven Day’s To Engineer”, he followed that with “Suckas Hate Me” in 2002, and of course the hypnotizing “Sach 5th Ave” album in 2005….If you missed this joint when it initially dropped, I highly suggest that you track it down….

The elusive producer “Omid” handled the bulk of the beats with a interesting, moody, drum heavy approach…..

Take a listen…

“Rhyme Slayer Blues”………Damn, this is just straight up crazy….

“Slave Song”…

" No I.D. On The Beats "

What’s going on out there Hip Hop Battlefield posse ?

Has the work week put a damper on your morale ?…….Are you ready for the weekend to bring you new perspectives, energy, and a well deserved rest ?

I feel you family…..

You need some ammo to help spark shit off on the right note, so without further delay I’m going to hit you with that Friday splash off……..Even though No I.D. has somewhat changed his steez lately, he deserves credit for putting out some quality production over the years…..Not to mention he is currently the executive V.P. at Def Jam (I’m not really a fan of the record label anymore though HA)…

Regardless press the download button and peep some Chicago frequencies….

“NO ID & DUG INFINITE- THE SAMPLER “

DOWNLOAD….

And while your at it, you might as well scoop this other No I.D. release that has some bangers on it : “Invisible Beats volume 1”

Rock on and stay tuned for more activity on the BATTLEFIELD this weekend….

" Thursday Rockets "

Diggers With Gratitude sent over some info about a new project that they have brewing up….Emskee- “The Complex Engineer” and the “Radio Promos E.P.” are now available for pre-order on wax for all you Hip Hop freaks out there…

If you are unfamiliar with his music, let me give you a brief rundown…

1..He was once in a group with Nick Wiz & the original DJ Slice…

2..Emskee penned a couple songs for Kid Capri’s mysterious shelved second album…

3…And lastly, Red Alert, Funk Master Flex, and Stretch Armstrong rocked his promo shit on their respected radio show slots…

And if your still not satisfied, take a listen to these snippets of unreleased rockets from the 90’s….

" Tragedy Khadafi Speaks "

Tragedy Khadafi sat down with the “Rap Up” squad for a in-depth interview recently….He discusses his upbringing in Q.B., Big Pun, Thug Matrix 3, etc……

“TRU: You’ve been in the game longer than almost anybody else, what were your most memorable recording experiences?

The most memorable? I’d have to say; Chuck D, Nas and Big Pun. Those are like the three most memorable to me. The reason why Nas was one of the most memorable was the time we did this song together called ‘Calm Down.’ Everybody gave their energy and came a certain way on the song and killed it, I killed it, Nore killed it, but when Nas came he did a short story that was so graphic… He did a story in 16 bars. Most people would’ve taken a whole song to do a story. But he did the story like he wrote an essay, he wrote and spat a lyrical essay in 16 bars. An essay has an introduction, a subject matter and a conclusion. He gave you the story, he gave you the intro, the subject matter and he closed it. That was crazy how he did that. He killed that shit. That was one of the phenomenal joints to me”.

" Wax Weapons #33 Re-Ups "

* Originally posted earlier this year…

Here is a little treat for the HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD posse……

Earlier today I hit the record button while I was getting my daily turntable abuse in…..Blends, doubles, slam dance rap, and even a couple of my own exclusive remixes get thrown into the rotation holmes….If you want to give your evening a power boost- you know the motherfuckin drill…..

* No playlist this time around, but trust me that the selections are very dangerous….BLAM,BLAMZ..

If you have trouble downloading let me know, and I will put up a different link….

CHECK IN….

" Nas – The Found Tapes "

For the life of me I can never understand why Nas rhymes over such corny/trash beats……I’m quite sure he has access to any producer out there….Right ?

Instead of joining forces with Damion Marley, Nasir should team up with AZ on the mic- and go grab Pete Rock, Large Pro, and Preem and make the album his hardcore fan base wants to hear…

Does that sound good to ya’ll ?……..

He can still rhyme like a motherfucker, I’m just growing tired of hearing all these tinkerbell beats that are beneath him…..Anyway, D.J. Rhude hits us off a gang of unreleased/ under the radar Nas joints……I’m quite sure you will hear something that will perk your ears up….

*That new song “Nasty” is a step in the right direction….

YOU KNOW THE DRILL….

" 45 King + Biz Markie = Illness "

Mr. 45 King has managed to rock some ridiculous interviews as of late: Prince Paul, Double J, Chill Rob G, and now we have Mark going head to head with Biz Markie on his excellent “Making The Beat Series”…..

Awww man, this has to be seen to be believed….Quit stalling and tune in if you know what’s best for you..

" Freestyle Fellowship 2011 "

Had the chance to listen to that new “FF” shit earlier today (The Promise)….

First of all these guys deserve respect just for linking back up….Secondly, this project has some highlights that deserve your attention…..

I just wish that the production was more explosive because the rhymes are still on point…. This cut is Hip Hop Battlefield’s top pick…

“This Right Here “……Mikah 9 kills this one..

" The Worlds Most Dangerous Group "

While doing some heavy duty digging earlier this year in Vancouver, Canada – I noticed a shirt that I had to buy on G.P. (That’s general principal for all of you that do not speak slang HA.)

The worlds most dangerous group “N.W.A.” gets the fresh black and silver treatment by Manifest Clothing…..Even though it’s cold as shit around these parts, I still rock this joint with my head held high…..

If you want to cop one yourself, check in jack !!!!!

PEEEP..

" Mugshot Music Splash "

Yo, I’m tired of all these “Mugshot Music” leaks…..

Please hurry and release the album fellas, because it sounds like you got a scorcher on your hands and brothers are ready to cop immediately…

The motherfuckin Bronx heavyweights are back in effect…..

“Show & A”……Produced by Showbiz….

" Respect The Architects "

A couple years back I caught an Egyptian Lover show that blew my mind……Of course he ran through all the classics like “Egypt, Egypt”, “Yes”, “What Is A DJ”, etc….But he also ran through some newer joints that definitely caught my attention…

Instead of hopping around on the stage like so many so-called M.C’s – “E.L.” put on a real motherfuckin performance with theatrics, suspense and true showmanship…..

The 5th Element crew recently caught up with the mysterious Electro pioneer to chop it up about Uncle Jamm’s Army, Ice-T, Radiotron, The TR-808, Analog vs Digital, etc…..

DONT SLEEP…

" Soul Power Monday "

Thes One from PUTS launches an hour of soul power tunes that are sure to make you snap your fingers, nod your head, and all that other fly shit……

Tune in….

“Mustache Soul delves deep into the bizarre world of outsider drum machine soul from the late 70′s and early 1980′s. A mix by Thes One, all songs were taken from original vinyl pressings and the mix is an even hour of full curl power. And no, he can’t tell you what track number x is. The secret of the mustache is remaining tight lipped”.
