Throwback Thursday feat. Jay-Z, Blu, 2Pac, Andrew Bird, Big Z Remixes, The Hood Internet, Mr. Little Jeans (Arcade Fire cover)

Here it is, the Turntable Kitchen March 2011 mix. It came together surprisingly quickly, and yet I feel like it is one of my favorite mixes I've put together in awhile. It is certainly eclectic, but that undoubtedly reflects the fact that my mind has been suffering from musical attention deficit disorder. I've been listening [...]

here's the first leak off the highly anticipated Von Pea debut LP "Pea's Gotta Have It" (no relation to "She's Gotta Have It"). Von Pea is one of my favorite emcees, representing Tanya Morgan and The Lessondary (a claim to fame: he moderates Okayplayer's The Lesson ). It's on OKP where he's developed his gift for snark and funny punchlines, not to mention he makes beats as The Beatmaker *batcrack*. making hip hop fun again for all the boys and girlies - taking it back to the essence and at the same time clowning on fools [...]

he sounds a lot like Mario Winans (who i loved) but with more authenticity. there's that undeniable soul in his songs that has people anxiously anticipating his debut album on Jive Miguel Jontel -- All I Want Is You (ft J. Cole) this is the single off his album and you can tell why. i've had it on repeat. he kills the hook and j. cole is great in his cameo. perfect track Johnson & Johnson -- In the Building (ft. Miguel Jontel As Jontel Johnson) [...]

Helloooooo, Summer music. This is apparently coming off of a forthcoming LP called Danny Johnson , as in Danny Brown and Johnson & Jonson. A whole album of Blu and Danny Brown?!? Fuckouttahere... it's not possible. It's not, I tell you. You're playing with my emotions. It's just... they're two of my favorite... incredible... lyrics... rhyme scheme overlo- *passes out* Could get a little weird, though. Even for me. I'll reserve judgment and believe it when I sees it. Download [...]

Johnson & Jonson - "The Only Way" So here is some new hip hop that's worth listening to. Californian rapper Blu saying something that means something over a well crafted soul inflected track produced by longtime collaborator Mainstream - who does a bang up job on this and the rest of the album. Check the John Lennon sample in the other album track "Hold on John". The Johnson and Jonson album project powder and oils - off which [...]

How last month of me....However, since I sleep on the hometown scene all-too-frequently, consider this mild penance. 10. Dengue Fever - Venus on Earth ( M80 ) Dreamy and druggy psychedelia built on a bedrock worship of 60s Cambodian pop, and the ethereal buoyancy of Chom Nmol's voice. Adorned with a filagree of B-movie spy scores, Dick Dale surf strut, and the occasional sax-a-ma-phone [...]

Between Blu releasing Johnson and Jonson recently and Gutter Tactics arriving in my mailbox, I've had a good amount of the boom bap to get through. Luckily though, Gutter Tactics is as strong as any other Dälek release thus far. The Real Dälek Beginning with a righteous screed by Rev. Jeremiah Wright , where he perhaps goes a bit over the top, the disc shapes up to be even more overtly [...]
