AGALLAH has been on a wild run as of late…

Be on the lookout for the “Brownsvillain” album in the very near future – until then, take a listen to the first leak entitled “Grain Of Sand” and catch a zone duke!!!!

People constantly hit me up and ask if I have a Soundcloud page? The answer is yes, and if you are floating around in cyberspace and are in the need of more Hip Hop ammo in your life- head over to my SC page and catch a heavy zone…

KUFU ONERZ (GFC/NSA/ BOOM SKWAD) is responsible for the majority of the artwork we have dropped on our records..The difference between him and a lot of writers is that he was born into the artform (His older brother is J-Swift who is the MC behind the rare “Dealing With Aces” holy grail 12 inch)..If your in the Bay area head over to the 14street art supply shop in Oakland and pay homage to his explosive hand styles, color schemes, and all that other wild shit!!!!!!! – SIDE NOTE- This MF GRIMM and DRASAR 7inch sold out with a quickness back in 2013…Be on the lookout for a new assault by us in the very near future…

Whenever I’m on a long drive I tend to look for interesting podcast to check out…Sometimes we take it for granted but we are extremely lucky and fortunate to hear some of our favorite artist fully open up in great detail about what makes them tick..I can vividly remember a time when the public had very limited access into artist lives…

That wild dude JAK PROGRESSO has a podcast (New Acid Test) that is kinda bugged out in a off kilter- impromptu, scatter brain type of way…He recently had JUS ALLAH as a guest and it was interesting on many levels….Jus breaks down why he left JEDI MIND TRICKS, views on today’s Hip Hop climate, history, future, and all types of shit that should keep you locked in….

***Ten points deducted from JAK for interrupting JUS nonstop through the course of this interview….HAHAHAHAHA

When it comes to DUB my top ranking three rock in this order…

1..KING TUBBY –

2..LEE SCRATCH PERRY –

3..KING JAMMY –

These three heavily influenced the way I view production, creativeness, and true dedication to the craft….Those dudes out in Japan (Dub Vendor) just tapped into King Tubbys’ vaults to unleash more goodness on the Dub massive…DO NOT SLEEP !!!!

1976 rare dub album consists of robust Techniques rhythms dismantled and reconstructed by King Tubby to its perfection
Long-expected reissue of one of the most sought after dub albums.

Ever since the birth of my second child (Kingston), I have to admit that my shoe copping days have nearly come to a close…Luckily for me my stash game is pretty monstrous…With the recent release of these scorching Puma / Bobbito joints I might have to come out of retirement and set dudes on fire on the ave…

If your thinking along the same lines-

On the latest episode of SUPER DUTY TOUGH WORK (Blueprint & Illogic) the duo delve into the changing face of Hip Hop production…It’s not too often I get to hear conversations like this, so it was a interesting breath of fresh air in many aspects (Even though I do not agree with some of the things mentioned)…

“In the winter of 1996, Blueprint bought his first sampler and began his journey as a hip-op beat-maker. During the last twenty years, things have changed tremendously; some for the better and some for the worse. In this episode, we dive deep into what the landscape looked like 20 years ago and how much it’s changed for the people who are making beats now”.

I’m feeling this MEYHEM LAUREN & MUGGS joint “Niggas Is Pussy”…

WHY ?

What’s not to love about disgruntled bars such as, ” I don’t care about your rhymes, I don’t care about your raps, I don’t care about your guns, I don’t care about your gats- niggers is pussy”…It also helps that the visuals to accompany the track are stone cold !!!!

Do yourself a favor and take a listen to this BBC Radio broadcast….

“In 1974, one of America’s most celebrated cultural figures declared graffiti as “the great art of the 70s”.

Back then, thousands of teenagers were vandalising New York, in particular the subway system. Yet Norman Mailer described their “passion”, their “cool”, their “masterpieces in letters six feet high”.

Who were the teens behind the “tags” – now the veterans of the scene? Why did they create this movement? Were they even thinking about art, politics, protest – or simply writing their names on trains?

BBC Radio 4 meets some of those who defied the law (and their parents) and diced with death including pioneers such as Riff 170, Jester, Coco 144, Flint Gennari, and Tats Cru. Their efforts have been replicated far beyond New York – in art galleries and in the hands of Arab Spring protesters – and yet their aspirations were largely apolitical: they were chasing fame and the acceptance of their peers.

The programme explores the city’s complicated relationship with graffiti, which it appears to condemn and celebrate in equal measure. Former artists – or “writers” as they prefer to be known – revisit their old haunts and discuss why they believe they had a right to “tag”, “bomb” and “destroy” New York with markers and spray paint.

The programme paints a vivid picture of a city that became a canvas at a time when, according to Norman Mailer, “it looked as if graffiti would take over the world”.

By now I’m quite sure you know what your in store for when you peep a THIRD SIGHT project : insane rhyme patterns, morbid tales of killings and murder, battle raps, lo fi beats, and all types of off-kilter shit with a San Jose Hip Hop sensibility…..Truth be told JIHAD has mastered his lane for a few decades at this point, and on his latest release the “Red Herring” mixtape he keeps his brand of originality on full blast mode….

JIHAD gives a nice glimpse into the making of this album on the WITZARD website (Beats, Lyrics, Cuts, & the Inside Story)…

“Red Herring is made up of tracks I recorded between 2008-12; production duties are held down by Mr. Aeks, Du-Funk, Drumboy, and Maestro Gamin. The cuts were performed by DJ Vandal from The Netherlands and there are two guest emcees: Maestro Gamin & Drew Fairweather (Crudbump.) The tracks were languishing on my desktop, until Awkward offered to master them. He mastered Orchids & Corpses (2016) the same way. He also, did tracks for Third Sight’s IV. In addition, he is remixing a narrative/comic book album, The Red Sentence, for me.”

PEEP….

KAN KICK continues his consistent beat tape assault with the release of his latest “Quaker State 2″…Turn the volume up a few notches and catch a zone…
