A week ago I saw the youtube version over at Boombap.org and he said it was a couple of days old. Now DGI put up the downloadable version to season your Ipod with. Fresh!
This Friday Mello Music Group continues it's free music series, offering fOnk legends Georgia Anne Muldrow & Dudley Perkins "SomeOthaShip" album for free download all week! This project is 13 tracks long featuring Black Milk, Prince Po, MED, Rapper Big Pooh, Kazi, LMNO, Kool G Rap and more. The production is equally stellar featuring work from Black Milk, Oddisee, Dudley Perkins, Georgia Muldrow, and Flying Lotus. Included in the download version is bonus material including an Oh No remix featuring Rapper Big Pooh & MED and an LD mix. This project was originally released in 2010 and represents some of MMG's earliest work having been the 2nd project Mello embarked on. G&D are busy preparing another album which is due out in Fall on Dudley & Georgia's label SomeOthaShip Connect.
Approximately 10-years ago (Cold Vein was released on 5-15-2001) Vast Aire and Vordul Mega (collectively known as Cannibal Ox) released their seminal debut, Cold Vein, on Def Jux Records. Now, a decade later, the pair team up again with Raekwon for "Thor's Hammer" which appears on Vast Aire's new solo-LP, Ox 2010: A Street Odyssey. #DOPE.
Purchase the album via iTunes
Planet Asia & TriState aka. General Monks dropped a free album today "Each Step Becomes Elevated". Definitly some heat at the guestlist and also like the project after the first listening. Form your own opinion and get the album for free at the link above. Check all infos by Wandering Worx Entertainment after the jump...
We showed you the first two leaks a couple of days ago. Now the french producer drops the full album for free. The tracklist is stacked with dope emcees (Buff1, Edo G, Finale, Trek Life, King Magnetic, Magestik Legend, Rasco, Stahhr, Journalist 103,..) and the beats are outta space... Astronote! Don`t miss this. Did I say this is a free download?
This LP is raw, filthy and totally back in time. Shit sounds like off the 90's and serves 13 dope tracks. No Fillers inside. Check all infos and the new Video (Dirt Platoon - Sing-A-Hymn/The Crook - Deeper Than Dirt) after the jump. Dont miss this°!
I guess this must be the last episode promoting the four headed production team from Cali Drums and Ammo and their free beat tape which you can download here. This time it`s producer Al Jieh featuring DaVinci. Check out the previous episodes with REL and C-Plus, 6Fingers and Bambu and the first episode with Ammbush repping himself.
Don`t sleep on these guys.
A selection of mostly european (predominantly german) tracks. Many of them edited. Just some rare or awkward stuff sitting on my shelves, that waited to be compiled into a mix for a long time. Starting slowly and getting library discoid towards the end.
Our friend Rafael is a lunatic when it comes to record diggin. Check out his latest adventure into funkyland. Crusty ass shit!
I´m glad Gil Scott-Heron called some attention on his last record and made once again clear what a gifted & powerful poet and musician he was. He showed a last time that he still got it - putting all the struggle with life and drug abuse in the rear. He died 3 days ago 62 years old in a new yorker hospital.
The first time I recognised him was actual on a sample.. So here is a kmd for you + a late performance (probably not one of his best, but it´s touching that he did such a performance on a small stage in the park..) of the man himself.
For all who are interested in his lifework I recomend the documentary: Gil Scott-Heron – The godfather of rap.
rest in peace.
