Today I’m going to bless ya’ll with a handful of joints that should keep your bell ringing….Big shout out to the people that check Hip Hop Battlefield on the motherfucking daily !!!!!!

1. N.Y. Confidential- “Backstabbed”…………….No this is not Mobb Deep, but it sounds like it could have been made during the “Infamous Era”……This is straight gutter, crime story, box cutter in the hand rap….I could listen to this type of stuff all day…

DOWNLOAD

2. Kool Sphere- “Blue Collar M.C.’s” (Featuring A.Z.)………..I’m digging this…

DOWNLOAD

3. Kool Sphere- “Serial Killa”……….Sounds like the kid “Sphere” has a couple heaters on his hands…

DOWNLOAD

4..Roc Marciano- “Tearz”………It took awhile for me to get used to Roc’s double time flow on this one, but after he said, ” If ya’ll keep playing with my money someone is going to get busted in their motherfuckin head “, I knew this was a keeper…..Plus he made the beat so I can’t front…..

DOWNLOAD

5..Asamov- “Hookslide”……..Willie Evans Jr.’s crew put out some decent material over the years…It’s unfortunate they didn’t garner the attention that they deserved…….Peep…..

DOWNLOAD

Sometimes when I sit down at my sampler things come together really quickly…Ideas pop up and I am able to execute at a fast rate…Other times I will hover over my M.P.C. for days working on one single sequence….

This remix that you are about to hear took me four days to fully tap out…I don’t like to pat myself on the back, but this piece of weaponry is highly explosive !!!!!!!!

The U.N. gang get the remix treatment this time around kid- (D.O.A.)….Instead of rocking the same beat for the entire song, I decided to switch things up and bring different beats along to keep the momentum pumping (HAHA)….So for all you A.D.D. motherfuckers I got you covered, don’t trip…

You know how I do over on the BATTLFIELD : Angry undertones, war drums, a serious as fuck disposition, machete chops, unsuspecting segues, dramatic movie samples, and all that other grimy shit….

No kits, no keyboards, no goofy synths, and definitely no nonsense…..

The thing that’s so funny about the blog “Game”, is that you never know who’s reading your post…..Recently a friend of mine that I lost contact with, stumbled on my blog and decided to hit me up….

I’m not going to say what his real name is because he lives his life on the edge (You feel me)….So I’ll just use one of his many aliases: “Sonny Wong” is one of the most humble cats that I know….His skill level is out of control, but you will never hear him flapping his lips about how he is GETTING IT IN !!!!!!!!!

My dude is all about action….No nonsense, just a show and prove type of steez……Check out these burners to see what the fuck I am talking about son…..

Salute to you “S.W.” for keeping those flames burning….

I always wondered whatever happened to Bretty B & Seanie B ?.. They put out some decent material as 7A3, Muggs eventually started Cypress Hill, and the rest is history….

But whatever happened to the blood brothers who migrated from N.Y. to L.A. in search of Hip Hop stardom ?

* Muggs also unveils unreleased heaters from the 7A3 vaults….Do not snooze !!!!

When I was growing up- I mainly listened to three different genres of music: Reggae, Punk/Hardcore, and of course Hip Hop…The B-Boys around my way were quick to hop in a mosh pit and slap someone upside the head…..Or roll up spliffs while listening to some Hugh Mundell ….

We looked at these three forms of music as rebellious and naturally gravitated to the abrasive frequencies that they provided for our youthful angst…..

It seems as if Malcolm Mclaren embraced this outlook as well….Not only was he the brains behind seminal punk rock outfit ” Sex Pistols “, he also collaborated with different Hip Hop artist over the years (Supreme Team, R.S.C., Afrika Bambaataa, etc)….

Who could ever forget the legendary video for Buffalo Girls ?…

Rest In Peace Malcolm Mclaren- A true pioneer, taste maker, visionary, and creative genius…

Clyde Stubblefield’s “Funky Drummer” break has to be the most sampled piece of music in history….I have heard everyone from Public Enemy to Fine Young Cannibals rock Clyde’s infamous percussion chops…

I could spend days writing about his other musical contributions, but I’m going to save that for a later date….

Peep this mix by the “Scratch Reaction Crew” that features all Funky Drummer samples…It’s a good thing they didn’t include that god-awful Fine Young Cannibals song (HAHA)…

9’0CLOCK SHARP—–CALIFORNIA TIME…

Beat tapes. Beat tapes, say it with me brethren…BEAT TAPES…….Everybody and their momma have a motherfuckin beat tape out kid…With this new influx of beat nerds trying to make noise, it gets harder and harder to sift through the mundane in order to find the golden nuggets…

My only problem with most of these beat tapes, is that many are lacking the explosiveness factor..For real, I find myself snoring through most of these joints..ZZZZZZZZZZZ….Try adding a couple scratches to your project, movie samples, odd segues, unpredidctable sequences and just maybe you will seperate yourself from the rest of the pack…

Anyway, let me get off my high horse and just bless ya’ll with the goods…This beat tape by the M.A.W. (The 1974 E.P.) had it’s moments, here are a couple beats that will make you nod your dome piece….

“Do Something”

DOWNLOAD

“Channel Autumn”

“Dilla” dropped so much music that it would be impossible to track down everything that he put out…From obscure beat tapes, features, instrumental projects, and collaborations, it seems like he practically lived in the studio…

Here is a joint that you might not be up on by “T-Da Pimp”-Why You Looking Hard ?…”Dilla” produced this heat rock back in 1997…

Oh shit, this sample sounds mad familiar…I’m not quite sure what the original sample source is, but I know for a fact that L.L. Cool J rocked the same sample on a song called “Jealous” from the Walking With A Panther album….

Add this one to your stash box of “Dilla” treats cousin….R.I.P.
