High. New track by MED and the brotha Talib Kweli. Produced by Madlib. Can`t figure out which sample this is, but I am shure Dejoe knows. This might be on the new MED Album. Hopefully this one too.
Oh man. This dude was not on my Radar and than he hit me right in the face with this. Fuck ...this is nice. Nice raps, cool beat and a very well directed video. At the End of the Day dropping later this year. Beat by Kleph Dollaz
This will actually be not on "Never A Dull Moment" and it`s just a verse over a chopped chanson with a bassdrum and a snare, but the way these two approach things make me hella hyped about July 27th when this shit drops ...hmm that`s still a long time to go ...for now just listen to the song above and this right here. Lee Bannon actually got his name from Ghostface and the WU slang when they said ... Lebanon. Haha. And I am not makin this up. Watch the video below.
If you scroll through our blog you have realized that we are huge fans of Stalley`s music. So when we had the chance to ask a couple of questions we immediatly said: let`s do it. Upmost respect to Stalley and Dan for making it happen.
# Please introduce yourself to everybody who doesn`t know about you yet?
Peace Germany, this is Stalley from Massillon, Ohio, 330. I’ve been rhyming for about 3 years now and live in New York City. I’m currently independent.
# We know that you originally come from a small place in Ohio, but then moved to New York. Did you feel like you had to move in order to push your career as a rapper or what was the reason for that?
Yea, basically. I originally came to NYC for school, but when I moved back home and saw how it was out there I knew I would have to move back to NYC to really get anywhere in the music industry.
# When was the first time that you thought that rap would be something you could live from? The first time I thought I could live from music was probably on July 14, 2009 when I dropped The Autobiography and performed at SOB’s in front of a sold-out crowd. That whole experience made me think I could really possibly do something with music.
# We also know that you are a big Madlib fan. What are your favorite three Madlib beats of all times?
The first three that come to mind are Fancy Clown from the MadVillain project, Distant Land from Shades of Blue and The Healer from Badu’s New Amerykah joint.
# How/when did you get in contact with Ski Beatz? Well I linked up with Creative Control for the video for “Autobiography” and once I was around DD172 it just happened naturally since Ski is always at the dojo workin’.
# We really like "Pressure" (produced by Micheal Sterling Eaton). Maybe you can tell us something about the way how you approach these songs? It seems like you are extremly serious about everything you say and stand for. Where does this seriousness originate from?
I grew up in a city where everything is hard and you have to work to get where you wanna be, so I take that and apply it to my music, especially when I’m drawing on those experiences. The beat also took me to a place where I was reminiscing about the hard times and the trials and tribulations that I’ve been through. I just wanted people to know that amidst all the pressure, you can overcome and find peace. In this case it was about me being from a small city and going somewhere with bright lights and just trying to get over that.
# Now tell us something about the "Address" video with Curren$y and Ski Beatz and the whole journey. It seems like you wrote the verse during the video shoot, because it fits just perfectly. How was the creative process for this project? I wrote and recorded the song in Jamaica and basically the verse just reflected everything I saw there. I just put myself in a Jamaica state of mind and focused on the sun, the trees and everything around me. I really wrote that at an exact moment and the lyrics just show how I felt right then. It just so happened that we shot the video there and it came out how exactly Jamaica felt to me.
# What will be next?
Right now, I’m working on finishing a project with a very dope producer named Rashad from the 3rd in Columbus, Ohio. We’re really gonna be taking my sound somewhere new and different. I’m also working on an entire project with Ski Beatz that should be incredible.
This is for my homie Rayan Malik who listened to The War Report as much as I did. This record right here sounds as if they never made a wack record in between. This is the CNN I`ve been hoping for. Produced by The Alchemist.
Mos Def is only on the hook, but we have a Jay Electronica on here too. This is majestic. Let`s see if there will be a video for this song. Pilot Talk is the name of the album, cover is dope as hell, beats are crazy plus Devin is on it. Go get it.
Now I saw this a couple of days ago, but somehow ignored the play button. We posted numerous songs off the new The Roots album (just search for it on the top left of the screen) and after listening to "How I Got Over" for so many times now I have to say it`s very radio friendly, but every single song is good. The video is süper nice, too. Directed by Jason Goldwatch.
Well if this were a Flipmode forum where everyone could post their ideas and requests I`d scream for a Busta/RahDigga collabo in form of a whole LP... Don`t know if this is actally off Rah Digga`s next album entirely produced by Mr. Nottz or if it`s off Nottz album featuring Digga ... anyway, this beat is a beast.
I like checking mails,for the listening session,and much more when i find tapes like this one."TeV95 - Loop Language",is very smooth,romantic and soulful.An clear and simple instrumental tape.Im vibing on it.
Just uploaded the third installment of Bad Things Come in 3's. This one features Hieroglyphics, Ghostface Killah & Jackson 5. Hope you like!
Last episode of Dj Dopeshoes "Bad Things Come in 3's (not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good)".Check episode 1 and episode 2 here.Good Job Lady.The saga continues with one more nice mix.
Prince Paul wrote: This was a project that I wanted to put together with Amityville MC legend Superstar . as I thought about it more I wanted to recruit more Mcs we knew to make it diverse . Superstar already had the name "Horror City" so wen recorded under that name . This project was recorded right after the first Gravedigga album " 6ft deep"in 1995 . I shopped the demo but unfortunately it got looked over and never got signed . I sat on this project for a while but it always had a dear place in my heart because I thought it was really good and the talent was there . I stripped some of the music from the demo and put it on " a prince among thieves" and actually had a few of the guys perform on the " Thieves " album as well but to be honest I always liked these originals better . So now I have decided share these songs with all of you because holding on to them made no sense .. why not share great music . Hopefully you the listener will enjoy this project as much as I do . please share it , thats why I made this for free download .
