Remember that project Killer Mike and El-P were working on? Well, last night they both shared on Twitter that Monday would be met with our first taste from that collaborative. Sure enough, before I could even brew up some morning tea, we are met with the grizzly "Big Beast". Featuring Bun B, T.I., Trouble, and Killer Mike on his KRS-One flow, El-P let's these heavyweight MCs swerve all over his thunderous beat. No word on when we will hear the rest of this collaborative project, but this track is sure a tasty first treat. Stream [...]

In the unusually warm 3am air of a Parisian suburb, a house party is getting out of control. Police Nationale have been called - but no-one can get near. The air is thick with Hip-Hop filling the adjacent streets, acting like a force field. You can hear the faint licks of Aerosmith and the rising vocals of Bowie as far as the Champs Elysees. Is that DJ Kool Herc on the decks? Situated in the Capital of French Electro, the influence is audible, while Meth, Red, Jay-Z and even Mystikal get 16 bars in on the mic. Who knew The [...]

Battlecat At the risk of excluding forgotten pioneers, you can trace the local roots of LA hip hop production to five names: Dr. Dre, Joe Cooley, Egyptian Lover, Arabian Prince, and DJ Battlecat. The latter broke in as a 16-year old DJ in the early KDAY era and remains one of the most influential architects of West Coast rap. When Snoop went into the studio last month [...]
