" Sir Jinx Speaks "
There was a period where it seemed as if Ice Cube’s “Lynch Mob” crew were poised to take shit completely over…..Kam, WC & Madd Circle, Jay-Dee, Shorty, Yo-Yo, & Sir Jinx’s production style were very influential…..
In my opinion one of Jinx’s brightest moments, was when he contributed production for G.Rap’s “Live & Let Die” album…….His sound was a mixture of Bomb Squad-esque layering, live instrumentation, and funky, well placed creative sampling techniques…
Go back and listen to that album again….You won’t be disappointed,it has managed to age very well…..
Hip Hop Dx recently caught up with Jinx to discuss: G.Rap, L.A. Riots, Tupac, and his current alias Tony Villa….HAHA..
Interesting read…
And just to keep you on your toes…..Here are a couple cuts by Jinx’s first crew “C.I.A.” which included K-Dee & Ice Cube……
1987 Killa Cali hardcore shit.
Tracklist:
A1. My Posse (5:31)
A2. Jus 4 The Cash $ (4:35)
A3. Ill-Legal (4:59)
B1. My Posse (Instrumental) (4:10)
B2. Jus 4 The Cash $ (Instrumental) (5:59)
B3. Ill-Legal (Instrumental) (5:01)

" Tokyo Chaos "
Earlier this year Pete Rock & Preemo linked up in Japan for a night of all-out party rocking…….On this live recording you will hear them both going head to head on four turntables…..
Damn……..You don’t have to worry about static, unwanted noise and all that bullshit….This recording came out very clear…So clear that you feel as if your right in the middle of the crowd ….
You know the drill…..Grab an ice cold beverage, crack the window a bit, strap on your helmet, and prepare for heavy turbulence……
" Conspiracy Radio-10/15/10 "
Those Conspiracy Radio dudes continue with their streak of in-depth interviews…..This time around they bring Blame One, Buckwild & Celph Titled, Copywrite, Cut Master Swift, Black Rob, and the legendary S.F. turntable wrecker, “Q-Bert”….
So do the right thing homeboy, and check in……
Enjoy..
" Style Warz, Part One Edition "
I just got done checking out this book by NYC legend, “Part One”……….WHEW……Your talking about a guy that got his start in the mid 70’s, and still remains active to this day…
His crew TDS (The Death Squad) is full of top notch heavy hitters……Kool 131, Case 2, Skeme, Repel, Bear 167, Noc 167, Dez (Kay Slay- who is better with a spray can than a turntable in my opinion), Zephyr, Chain 3, Dondi, Delta, all repped TDS at some point in their careers……
For someone that has put in so much work, you would figure more people would be familiar with his pieces…….Here is your chance to get familiar……
Hip Hop Battlefield gives this book the stamp of approval JACK !!!!!
" Kings From Queens-Twin Gambino & G.O.D. Pt.3 "
It looks like Stu Bangas & Vanderslice are on a mission to wreck this year….This brand new flamethrower, “Kings From Queens” strikes another win for the duo….
Turn the volume to ten, put on your best screwface, and prepare for some QB pressure…
I’m digging this one….
" Joint Of The Day, M.B.P. Re-Post "
Today’s joint of the day comes courtesy of one of South Bronx’s illest- Money Boss Player, “Minnesota”…..On this scorcher “Modus Operandi” he plays no games and shows you motherfuckers what hardcore Hip Hop is all about….
Minnesota is a triple threat when it comes to getting busy…..Makes his own beats, flips nasty rhymes, and engineer’s his own shit.
WOW…..
I posted this up over a year ago, but it’s only right that I give this one more action…..
Tune in troop….
And if your still on a quest to hear more drama, swoop up this podcast from the Heavy Listening crew that features all Money Boss Player material…..BLAM,BLAM……..You better not sleep..
" New Shit On Deck "
Peep this new track from Cali Agent, Rasco entitled “Grizzly”…..Be on the lookout for his upcoming album with D.J. Wich “Al Capone’s Vault” on October 20th….
CHECK IN…
" Under The Radar Rockets: Prodigy Edition "
The problem with a lot of rappers today is that after listening to their rhymes, I can’t remember a fuckin word that they said….HAHA..
I know you guys out there know what I’m talking about……..I’m going to let you in on a little secret- No one gives a shit what your talking about, unless they can remember a couple of your lines…POINT BLANK…
Don’t get it twisted up : I’m not referring to jingles and all those corny hooks fools are coming up with…..I’m talking about lyrics, punchlines, poetic value, proverbs, jewels , etc….
For instance, peep this lyric from Celph Titled off of the “Ninety Now” album…
” This ain’t the rock of love, but I’ll rock a thug / make you wear a rag and a wig like Brett Michaels does “………Is that the best line I have ever heard, nah far from it…..But is it entertaining and crazy hilarious ?
YES INDEED…..
How about this other comical line from Celph…….” When I’m holding the tec, I’ll put a hole in your neck / equipping you with a permanent T-Pain vocal effect “……
I don’t give a fuck what anyone say’s…..That shit is funny as hell………….Celph Titled is not my favorite M.C. by a long shot, but I listened to those lines a week ago and they are still stuck in my head….
DO YOU GET MY POINT HOMEPISS ?
Guru, G.Rap, Big L, Ice- T, Chino XL, K.R.S., Rakim, Nas, Kool Keith, Ras Kass, Ice Cube, M.C. Ren, and of course Prodigy have so many quotables that I can remember off the dome it’s ridiculous…….And there are plenty other M.C.’s that I should add to this list, but that would take forever……
If you have some quotables you would like to add-feel free to do so in the comments section famz…….
Anyway, here is a batch of Prodigy/Mobb Deep joints that many of you have never heard before…..
Enjoy…
” Hold It Down “- produced by Havoc……….And NO, this isn’t that song with Nina Sky on the hook that you might be thinking about…

" Hip Hop Battlefield Kick Off "
Ever since I had my son (Jahmel Nesta), I put my shoe buying on hold and started picking up kicks for him….
Good thing I’m fully stocked HAHA…..
I was looking through the massive amounts of shoes I have accumulated over the years, and a funny thing dawned on me……Why have all these ill kicks if I’m not going to wear them more often ?
So from now on fuck stashing my joints…… Even though Summer’s over, I have to start splashing the set again…..
Here are a couple joints from my collection that I felt like sharing with the Hip Hop Battlefield posse……Be on the lookout for my special AF1 showcase in a couple weeks troop……POW.
1..NASTY AIR STABS…..
God damn, look at the color scheme on these famo…..Sky blue, baby blue, grey, light grey, a splash of red, black, light brown, and dark brown….That’s 8 colors of flavor…….
A lot of dudes don’t fuck with Stab’s, but I’m a big Stab fan when they flip them correctly…….BLAM.
2..TOP TEN WRECK…
C-Knowledge from “Digable Planets”, ran up on me and started screaming his head off when he saw me rocking these heaters…………Blue & White, nothing too crazy just an all around fresh shoe…….
What up “C” & Cashish in Philly…
3..AJ’s
Yeah man, I caught these out in Seattle during a heavy digging mission awhile back…..To my surprise they only ran me 80 bucks…..I’m quite sure you would have to pay close to 200 hundred if you wanted these scorchers right now..
Green & Black pressure…..
4.. CROSS TRAINER SB’s
Once again check the nasty color scheme: Black, grey, olive green, dark green, tan, powder blue, and baby blue……Somehow they made all these colors rock when it sounds like it would be impossible to pull it off….
Caught these out in S.F in one of my favorite spots in the entire country (which will remain nameless)….
5..ADIDAS MID’S….
My man Mad Miguel from L.A. blessed me with these dynamite sticks………Karreem Abdul Jabbar in full blown karate mode on the side, with the ill clear stripes…..What’s fucking with that ?
I have been terrified to rock these in public (gotta stay scuff-free), but I’m going to crush kids with these next Summer….POW,POW…
6..DUNKS,DUNKS,DUNKS….
WHEW..
Do I really have to explain why these are ridiculous ?………Every time I wear these someone will tap me on the shoulder and ask ” Where the fuck did you get those ? “……..
I don’t even know myself…..My man Big Ali hit me off with these a couple years back……What up Ali…….
So that’s it folks……I should pull out some old Lotto’s or some vintage Ellesse to really shake you motherfuckers up, but I’m going to fall back for now……
*Salute to my seven week old son/sun—– A.K.A. Jahmel Rockwell….A.K.A Jahmel Grizzly……A.K.A. Little dude….A.K.A. NO SLEEP FOR POPPA LARGE….HAHA
Peace-

" Golden State Warriors, Part 3 "
Hailing from the streets of San Jose, California- “Jihad” has been putting in work on the mic device for a minute now…His collaborative albums with D-Styles (Third Sight) are incredibly original, heavily detailed, and in a class by themselves….
Go back and listen if you think I am bullshitting…..
I decided to find out what Jihad was up to lately and stumbled on these 2010 cuts…..
