Reebok Classics and Rock The Bells bring you the exclusives: Classic Albums by Classic Artists. Souls of Mischief's debut record '93 Til Infinity and title track of the same name shook up hip-hop in 1993, becoming an instant classic. The underground, Oakland-based crew, consisting of four hardcore emcees—A-Plus, Phesto, Opio and Tajai—had been collaborating on tracks since high school. Once minute they were making beats in their basements, and the next releasing their first LP on Jive records. The teenaged crew was heralded for flipping the gangsta rap formula, enticing critics with their brash, lyrical complexity and elusive [...]

Bay-Area super group Hieroglyphics are back in a big way, releasing a new song "Reputation" in conjunction with a series of paintings inspired by the group from When Art Imitates Life (W.A.I.L .) - Hiero served as the guiding creative force behind the Hieroglyphics Legacy and Monument Series paintings. From music to art to clothing collaborations, and more, the legendary Hiero crew has certainly earned quite a "Reputation," and the aptly named song celebrates the Hiero legacy. This no-frills track is all about the flow; synthy guitar riffs and bare bones [...]

CLICK IMAGE TO WATCH THE VIDEO The homie Hexsagon sent me this promo video via twitter, and after hearing the snippet, and reading the features on the album I had to post ASAP. Definitely one to keep... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

I can't believe I haven't featured a song from Triangulation Station or, for that matter, any of Opio's other solo projects before. Yea, he's got some more recent work out now, but this album is his masterpiece. Opio is from one of the best hip hop groups of all time, Hieroglyphics. Comprised of a talented pool of MC's, Hieroglyphics was the best of the best in the late 90's/early 00's (for an underground group). The only MC from Hiero that comes close to Opio's talent is Del who collaborated with Dan the Automator & [...]

With the concept of the album coming from a trip taken by Opio and Unjust to a screening of the Big Lebowski at the historic Red Vic Theatre on fabled Haight Streeet in San Francisco on 4.20 of last year, both Unjust and Opio prepare to release The Big Lebowski Tribute Album "Mark It Zero". It was there at the Red Vic Theatre that the two men, even though they were in a confined movie theatre, thought "Fuck it, man" and fired up a joint of medicial Cali Kush prompting scores of other patron's to do the same in the [...]

From Opio & Unjust 's tribute album for The Dude from The Big Lebowski . " Aggression ," the first single off the album opens with one of the many memorable lines from the movie by John Goodman's character Walter Sobchak, "Life doesn't start and stop at your convenience you miserable piece of sh*t." True words. As that line fades out the song opens into a short and sweet smooth jam featuring slick production by Unjust who uses choice orchestral cuts and drum samples [...]
