If I had to decide which song I would choose from ROYAL FLUSH’S new album “Grand Capo” as the lead single, I would have to go with “Hip Hop” as the front runner…
WHY ?
1..The beat by GRAND PAPA TRA is straight up retarded….
2..Royal Flush starts the bar avalanche with disgruntled wordplay such as, ” Is it me or does everybody want to rap now / there is a lot producers with that wack sound , All these niggas coming up, just play the background / cause I’m a real legend in the game listen to how it really sounds “…..
3..This joint features guest vocals from ATLAS & NOKTI, with the latter rocking one of the ugliest voices I have heard on tracks since BIG TWINZ….
Some people try to downplay LIL DAP’S & THE NUTCRACKER’S lyrics, but the duo actually complimented PREEMO’S beats with their brand of BK street talk in my opinion….Plus, how can you front on greasy bars like these, “So much anger built inside / so don’t stop to say hi, motherfucker just die”…..That has to be one of the best lines I have ever heard in my life (It also accurately describes how I feel 95 % of the time HAHAHA)….
Anyway one half of the GROUP HOME (Lil Dap) links up with the very fresh London bred producer LEWIS PARKER for some 2014 limited edition vinyl treatment…

If your on the hunt for some beat morale, STRICTLY BUSINESS concocted this excellent compilation that has your name written all over it…..Plus it features one of my all-time favorite drum breaks (The Mike Curb Congregation – Mickey Mouse March)…..

It’s compilation time again, and we have something a little different this time around – Strictly Kids.
This is the Strictly Biz top 25 funky childrens tracks.
Funky basslines & breaks galore here, all plucked from childrens LPs, once again from the well known to the obscure.
Most of these have either been picked up from charity shops, or just lifted from the web, so the sound quality varies a bit.

This flick brings back some good and bad memories…
1..”The Bad” …GURU had just died when this picture was taken, so brothers were still in a sullen, introspective mood…..
2..”The Good”….My dude KHUFU ONERZ – TNS/NS/GFC (The man responsible for the GMV artwork) had just finished the above GURU tribute piece for our comrade, and the day was filled with all types of jokes, artwork, shenanigans, and extremely loud Hip Hop blasting out the speakers…

Eilon Paz’s 416-page coffee-table book illuminates over 130 vinyl collectors and their collections in the most intimate of environments—their record rooms. With a foreword by the RZA, compelling photographic essays are paired with in-depth interviews to illustrate what motivates record collectors to keep digging for more records.
Readers get an up close and personal look at a variety of well-known vinyl champions as well as a glimpse into the collections of known and unknown DJs, producers, record dealers, and everyday enthusiasts. The book is divided into two main parts: the first features 250 full-page photos framed by captions and select quotes, while the second consists of 12 full-length interviews that delve deeper into collectors’ personal histories and vinyl troves.
