All apologies to the Don Mega and Cartagena, but there was only one Don. The late Cornelius, who put himself to sleep at the age of 75. I spoke with him once for the LA Times, in late September of 2010, right around the time the Best of Soul Train was being released. The conversation was brief, maybe 20 minutes or so, but he still had that honey- smoked, ripple-free baritone. Perhaps the most soothing and reassuring voice ever ingrained in my memory. The aural equivalent of a paternal hand on the shoulder - one that conveyed eternal [...]

I'm officially not doing an albums of the year list. There have been so few that I wholeheartedly enjoy, I'd have to do a top 10 that starts at 8. But that is not to say that there wasn't some exceptional new music this year. Click HERE for my favorite tracks from 2011. I'm hoping that 2012 will pick up the pace, but if not, I'll just further recede into the vintage music that I love so much. I hope you enjoy listening to the mixes as much as I like making them.

Black Milk & Danny Brown - Black & Brown EP Fat Beats Records: 2011 Black Milk is the best producer in the game right now, and in the past few years Danny Brown has brought the most distinct style to hip-hop since those loose crack rocks chafed Lil Wayne's oesophagus. Both have had a great year. Milk teamed up with two of rap's most intimidating diplomats to release a critically acclaimed album in which his fresh, thudding beats outshone and outlasted the occasionally repetitive rhyming content of his peers. What Brown did to [...]

Danny Brown is my pick for breakout rapper of 2011, and I am completely biased. I first met Danny in 2008 when he still wore jeans a few sizes too big and still had braids. But he was always the weirdo [...]

A.Dd+ is a Texas-based duo that I first got turned onto this past summer. Their bio describes their style pretty nicely: Quirky yet streetwise, fun-loving yet dead serious, A.Dd+, the duo of Paris Pershun and Slim Gravy . . . [has] a recipe that falls somewhere between UGK's downhome Southern cooking and the abstract vibes [...]
