BCC rhyme launcher Sean Price keeps dropping that smack em up rap with the release of this new blazer, “How The God’s Chill Remix” featuring Mayhem Lauren & Roc Marciano…
It’s nice to hear these three smoke the mic, but I just wish this beat could have been better…….I enjoyed listening regardless…
Peep..
When I ran into Mode 2 at the Aero Soul 2 art exhibit a couple months back I didn’t really know what to expect…..I had heard that he didn’t really like taking pictures, but how often does Mode come to California ?
Fuck that, I was determined to get a flick…..Not on some weirdo fanatic shit, nah just simple admiration for the amount of work he has put in over the years……So I ran up on dude right before I was going to hop on the decks…”What’s up Mode, blah, blah, blah would you mind if I took a flick of you brother”……
His reply was “Uh, uh, I stopped taking pics since 1996″……..At first I was stunned by his reaction……So I just kinda stared at him and gave him the gas face / screw face special……You gotta understand something before I even go further with this shit…I’m not the type of dude that runs up on everybody and whispers in their ear for autographs…
Not because I’m unable to humble myself in the presence of greatness….It’s because in my mind we are all great….Even you weirdos that behave like motherfucking savages are great in your own right…Everyone has a talent, it’s just that some people are unable to tap into their inner greatness (More on that in a future book or something)…
Anyway, he smiled at me and I just turned around and chuckled to myself on the way to the D.J. booth……….I quickly forgot about that little episode and started flipping through my record bag to get it popping……My set is groovy, people are snapping their fingers, girls are bobbing their heads and all that other fly shit……..
I decided to throw on a JVC Force cut, “Strong Island”………..Instantly heads perk up a little bit more and the room gets a little steamier…..Guess what happens next ?………..Your boy “Mode” rolls up on me and gives me dap and a motherfuckin salute…
Fast forward to the next day-
I see Mode again, we crack a few jokes about Hip Hop ….. I mind my own business, pull out my trusty camera and take a flick…..HAHAHAHA……
Format Magazine caught up with the Chrome Angelz general for a round of discussion…..
Don’t be alarmed when you initially tune into this mix by Freddie Massif & Trinidad (You will understand what I’m saying)….After a mis-step with the first joint, they quickly get it poppin correctly…
Featuring songs from Grandmaster Caz, Roc Marciano, Phil Most Chill, Money Boss Players, Sadat X, Freestyle Professors, etc…If you enjoyed the Money Boss Players podcast that I posted awhile back- you will appreciate this as well…
This is the first single for Beat Junkie president J-Rocc’s upcoming album, “Cold Rock Stuff”…….”Play This Too” sounds like a break beat parade explosion on acid tabs….
Crunchy drums pounding a creepy carousel type vocal loop, over constantly changing arrangements……Original, heavily layered, and innovative…….Two thumbs up status…
Be on the lookout for “Cold Rock Stuff” April 5th on S.T.
Ya’ll ready for some official soul power ?
Are you prepared for heavy grooves that will cause even the most grimey dudes to jump up and do a little two-step ? Honestly, this complilation will help you get your motherfuckin mind right…..Instinct Records.
* And for all you beat nerds out there- this rocks an insane amount of open drum breaks so don’t sleep….

I’m only half-way through and it’s sounding rather explosive……If this is a indicator of what they have cooking up-they just might have a certified scorcher on their hands…..
My homeboy from FUNKWHATYAHEARD “M.P.” put this off the dome, one-track mix together recently…..You should already know by now that he plays no games, and he brings crazy flavors to the table every time he goes in….
So do the right thing and turn the volume to ten……
O.K. O.K. here we go again with that 2011 drama…..
When it comes to this remix shit, I build the beat around the vocals instead of just throwing accapellas over pre-made productions..
Everything is taylor made to fit the rhymes homeboy…
This time around I decided to flip G. Rap’s “Foul Cats” and create another foul concoction…….If you don’t know the drill by now- grab your war goggles, strap on some protective head gear, and prepare for collision…..I’m going in..
LISTEN UP…..
Awwwwww man the weekend is here already….So you know what that means: Bar fights, copious amounts of alcohol, chicken hawking, champagne poppin, kicking up dust, and some good old fashioned drunk driving……..I’m not talking about me, I’m talking about you motherfuckers……HAHAHA….

If you grew up in the Yo MTV Raps era you might have caught a video from Powerule (E-Ville, Prince, and Ax)…….”Smooth” was probably the trio’s biggest hit….Matter of fact that video received heavy burn for a short time period….
I’m not sure if they are still recording-the last thing I heard from them was “Bright Lights, Big City” 1997 Dolo Records….
Back in 1991 they dropped the Volume 1 album on Interscope Records (Damn, Interscope has changed for the worse over the years HAHAHA)…….Here is one of my favorite cuts from that joint….
“Ruffneck Style” produced by Powerule….
What’s going on out there HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD posse ?
Are you an M.C. that is confident in your skills ?……..Are you a D.J. that still actually mixes and practices your hand control on those scratch patterns ?……Maybe your a graff head that knows what time it is ?
Or are you a producer that donates a good amount of time to perfecting your craft ?……….
If you answered yes to any of those questions, you can send your material to ZJUDAH@YAHOO.COM and I will give it a listen to see if it is HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD status HAHA…….On the real though, send me your joints and I will see what’s good famo…
Anyway, Hip Hop Project blesses us with 4 hours of non stop hip Hop chaos…….Big up to all my peoples out there in Chi-Town, see ya’ll in a second….

“Q.B.C.” -Queens, Brooklyn Connection is one of those songs that I want D.J.’s to play, but for some strange reason I never hear it rocked…..Not even on the so-called “random rap” mixes dudes put out these days ..
(Since this came out on Capitol Records maybe it’s not random enough for them-HAHAHA)….
What a shame because it showcases one of Kurtis Mantronix’s illest beats………POW…
