Soul Man

I feel like hittin' you with some of them old Soul classics today. Now this is just great up-tempo music. All of them guaranteed to get you goin'. Checkit:









Man, this is only some of the greatest music ever made! Enjoy that.

Dope dope dope!

Checkit it's (kinda) new stuff from Dilated, Alchemist, 88-Keys and Aceyalone! Now I like this one right here:



So is it just me or have Alchemist updated his style?

Check out these:



Haha, check 1:34 when Al does his corny lil' flip with his cap. Otherwise a real chilled out vid..



Dope as hell huh? They're all quite new and they all got a similar sound to 'em. Nothing negative to say 'bout it though. I really love all these tracks. Alchemist with Dilated keeps on bringin the heat.

Notorious B.I.G. tribute

Now this is something extra! It's a 4 hour(sic!) mix that Mister Cee of Hot 97 did at the 10th year anniversary of Biggies death. It features a number of guests calling in as well as interviews with some of the people that were closest to Biggie. Apart from that it's 4 hours of the original versions of many of his songs, live performances etc. etc. It really is incredible and you Need to get this. Can't stress it enough really.

Something for ya earhole

I'll start off with some favorites of mine. Now this one is a real legend in the game: Large Professor (aka Large Pro or Extra P).

Pay attention at 1:17. Who's that kid in the red cap? That's right, it's your boy NaS. See told you he was legend.

When talking about NaS i gotta drop this one.

Track 10 off of the same album. NaS was only 16 when he spit this. Apparently he got signed simply based of the strenght of those bars. If you listen to it you'll see why though.


Btw, Large Pro's coming out with a new album in 08 called Main Source which, obviously, refers to his old group with the same name. Peep his myspace: http://www.myspace.com/thelargeprofessor

Day One

Thisisit. Finally, huh?

This blog will be about Good music, Hip Hop that is. Not only Hip Hop though, just..mostly. When talking about Hip Hop it is, in my opinion, impossible not to mention all the great music that inspired all the Hip Hop-cats to start making their own music. Rakim said it best:

"Even if it's jazz on the quiet storm
I hook a beat up convert it in a hip-hop form"

Word up.
