I'm not even sure where to begin with this track. Sam Knowles aka Karma Kid is a producer from the UK. About 12 days ago he released Entity Relationship Diagram and it couldn't be more on time. This track starts off very mellow; smooth house chords and beat with snippets of Aaliyah's Rock the Boat . That could have been enough right there, but then around the 2:08 mark the beat drops, energy ramps up and we're treated to bars of the one and only Redman . This track is simply beautiful. I [...]

Smokey Robotic started 2012 with a Official Remix to "No Reality" featuring Redman. Remixed by Konrad OldMoney and !llmind.

I got hit up by 101 Distribution to contribute to their "News" section, highlighting NJ Hip-Hop. That's my M.O. already, so I said "let's go". The first article went up today , and is more of a 2011 NJ Hip-Hop review. I don't cover EVERYTHING, but a lot of what stood out to me in 2011's NJ scene is in there. I'm hoping to get more interviews and artist features up as the months go on, so hit me at khal@rockthedub.com , subject "I Can't Forget New Jersey", and we'll talk about getting some shine on.

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 [...]
After both DMX and Sheek Louch referenced infamous Hall of Fame wrestler Bob Backlund during Ruff Ryders' "World's Greatest" comeback track, we were reminded the WWF Superstar-turned-wannabe-polit ician had actually been [...]
Vibes master and all round cosmic gentleman Roy Ayers has had a huge impact on the hip hop world, with his jazzual noodlings forming the back bone of many a hip hop hit. But as far as I can remember (and I'm probably wrong), no one has collected these into one mix*. So hats off to KCRW's Anthony Valadez, who has taken the time to stitch Ayers' tunes together with the hip hop cuts that have borrowed so greatly from them. Here's what Anthony had to say: "The inspiration for [...]

<!-- <!-- <!-- Recently, Red Bull sat down with Redman, Joell Ortiz and Schoolly D during their involvement with the Red Bull EmSee series, to discuss the first time they've ever spit rhymes on the mic. Throughout the video, the three successful MCs tell their funny "first time" stories. For Redman, it was the time he performed at Lincoln Park when he was 16 years-old. For [...]

Sometimes I get ideas and don't know what the hell to do with them. Other times, I get an idea and work that shit out an hour later. This mix is one of the latter. Helping my son with his homework, I noticed he responded well to working while listening to music. Not full-on lyrics and stuff, but beats. All of my mixes had odd cuts and curses in them, though, so I figured I'd knock out a quick mix of instrumentals that should get him going, and keep him rocking while busting out his letters and numbers. Nothing too [...]
