Gusmo, a Gang Starr Foundation member, recently spoke to Forbez DVD about how cocaine and theft led to the demise of Gang Starr. Forbez DVD is making a documentary on the break up of Gang Starr called, Breakup of the Chain & Starr . We'll see how that works out after these allegations but, if it is true (and we might never know that), then it was sad and stupid reason way for one of my favorite combinations to fall. Here's the transcript of the quotes: "[The DVD is] exposing how the whole [...]

New freestyle by QuESt over Gang Starr's "Mass Appeal".

Whilst we may known for our refined palette in underground disco and house and often only spotted ripping some muscle in the gym or spinning wax at da hottest clubz, once every so often (most Thursdays) we switch our dumb bells for an XXL Fubu vest (dress) and swing on down, John Wayne style to The Social , just off Oxford street for some beer, bitchezzz and...hip hop karaoke (observation only) It's pretty hit or miss, but the odd time they'll spin 30 minute intervals crammed with the finest old school 90s flavas! In honour of these little [...]

![[Review/Listen] – BADBADNOTGOOD – "BBNG"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3837140_lg.jpg)
Tweet "Alex, how do you feel about Giant Steps?" "Fuck that shit, everyone's played it, it's 50 years old, it sounds like crap, write a new song, and stop playing that God damn song. I don't care if you can fucking modulate it and change shit up, you can play it in seven, you can play it in nine: it's fucking boring. That's what I think about Giant Steps." This little conversational snippet comes right at the close of BADBADNOTGOOD's [...]

There's nothing wrong with a good cover thrown in to the mix, if you ask me. So here's a little somethin' from J-Live, who apparently won some approving chin strokes from those at attendance at the recent AC3 Festival in the States for his cover of Gang Starr and Nice & Smooth's classic 'Dwyck'. J liked the routine so much he decided to lay it down in the studio and release it to the masses. And he does a pretty good job of it too. In a fine display of mimicry, [...]

Think of the first James Bond movie you ever saw as a kid. Was the opening action sequence, a staple of the franchise, not the most thrilling thing your young eyes had ever witnessed? In a few short minutes you learned everything you needed to know about 007: he's clever, he's lethal, he has toys cooler than anything your parents let you buy, he has women you can only dream of, and he never ever gets hit by the innumerable bullets shot at him. Those crafty escape or chase sequences set the tone for the rest of the film, bringing [...]

I called this one last week , but when I stumbled upon Monk Higgins while doing last week's OSM, I was surprised I'd never heard of a dude with a name that awesome who has been sampled as much as Monk has. Chuck in the fact that Monk's most sampled track ( One Man Band ) was on an album called Dance to the Disco Sax (!), it became a done deal that Monk-sampling songs were going to be featured in this week's OSM. Now I don't have [...]

Try to actually make it into the stadium this year. Gang Starr -Skills Atmosphere - Sunshine Chris Brown - She Ain't You
