Again, the purpose of this series it to give a little shine to the producers and DJ's out there doing their thing and giving up the goods straight up on the internet. Most all of this has never been officially released or appeared on wax. This is one of the reason I really feel Serato [...]
I ain't gonna lie, I've been djing at sushi joints and whatnot a lot lately and playing some cooled out sets. It's a nice change from the more jumpin "club" vibe I've been doing on Saturdays for quite a while. It's also a bit refreshing to make a point to pull things out the crates [...]
This post is for the DJs out there. The internet remix game is on SMASH! If you're rocking Serato these days, you've hopefully come to realize that the internet has a wealth of booty to offer. This is the first of a series of post I plan to do on the great mixes floating around. [...]
Partially inspired by that last Marco Polo Radar post, I wanted to take a sec and lay it down for Large Professor. This man is NICE on the production tip, always has been. I've always been partial to his remixes (which always make me grab records), but he's also got some landmark production credits [...]
Yes, new GOOD hip hop is still coming out (not trying to get the agrument going), you just need to know where to look. I've been waiting for the 123 to drop since I heard Premier cutting it on Live From HeadQCourterz a little while back. I believe Marco Polo himself reflipped this song into [...]
If this shit don't make you move your ass, your thing is broke. Seriously. Here's some jams you all should be rocking on the regular. I am! Every so often I sweep through the old iTunes library and survey my listening habits to see what's what. These cuts have risen up recently and need to [...]
What more needs to be said?! Fast forward this video to 1:00. What the fuck is this?! I need to copy of this song. I think this cat is Currency. Dude it like the new ghetto Ma$e. "money, drugs, bitches, liquor, let's have ourselves a party!" seriously... i need a copy of this song. cannot... get... [...]
93 was a memorable year. Back when I was in high school, Hieroglyphics was the shit. I have many fond memories of bumpin Souls, Del, Casual & crew on the regular. I'm still rocking a 93 Til Infinity cassingle in the whip. So, I wanted to give a shout out to Hiero with some [...]
It's a celebration bitches! apparently I've been doing AllUpInYourEarhole.com for over a year now. I didn't even notice. I find it impressive that I've even managed to muster up somethign to say and post 3 or 4o times a month. I know, it doesn't seem like much, but it's what I do. In celebration here's [...]

ok, fuck it... what is going on with music today? first of all, could you pick a worse sample? unlistenable. second, please stop trying to fucking invent new dances (see Soulja Boy, Chicken Noodle Soup)! STOP. lastly... what is wrong with your shoes? if this shit blow up, i'm going to go ape shit. PS this [...]
What the fuck is this?! New, GOOD hip hop (out of New Orleans no less). Man, I'm slippin. A lot of shit finds it's way to my rotation and I'm not trying to start a rant here about the lack new good music, just trying to hip people to things I'm feelin when I [...]
Got an email today, and it turns out Kevin Mega is all up in your iTunes. Mega is from my hometown, Milwaukee - so I need to rep for my town and my crew. All bias aside, Mega is nice on the mic. I've heard some stories about peeps that Mega has ripped with freestyles [...]
A theme post? Sure why not. Recently I've noticed I've been listening to a mess of really heavy songs (as least according to what my iTunes is telling me). I'm not sure what the connection is to my listening habits as of late, but it seemed like a good reason to showcase some new and old cuts I've been giving play. Round 1 - Chaka Khan w/ Mary J. Blidge . You read right. This is some hard shit here. I really have no idea where this is from, or what the [...]

Camp Lo is the real deal. These cats just don't quit. It's unlikely they'll ever re-live the success of Luchini ( "This Is It, WHAT?!" ) and they will be seen as a one hit wonder because of it but SERIOUSLY... they haven't stopped or changed. They are still doing their thing, though very under the radar now. Uptown Saturday Night is a classic in my eyes. The slang was think, the beats were nuts and it was hypnotic! When that shit dropped, I had no idea what those cats were sayin [...]

No doubt ! DJ Jazzy Jeff is back. I'm a few months late on this one, but DAMN. I didn't really have high hopes for this album, but I stand corrected. I have to admit, I've never been checkin for Jeff as a producer. But he brought it, and also brought Jean Grae , Rhymefest , Method Man , CL Smooth and Big Daddy Kane with him. From being a highly respected DJ (who was rocking house parties at age 10 and winning the DMCs in 86), to being [...]

in homage to bounce's return to the game droppin busted tunes, i give you this trunk rattlin gem. SO KRISPY . if you don't know by now, don't even ask. this beat is SO ridiculous you can't hate on it... (catch the video at The Fader ). homie's hair game is off the meat rack - watch our Snoop ! Kinfolk Kia Shine - So Krispy Download audio file (kinfolkkiashine-krispy.mp3) SOUNDS GOOD WITH Beastie [...]

Tres Records is making moves and DJ Alibi is next up to bat. If you missed it, Tres was the label to drop the last albums by Giant Panda , Lightheaded and People Under The Stairs . It's been a good couple years for them, and it's wise to take notice. 21 year old DJ Alibi was apparently "discovered" by Thes One (PUTS). The first hints of DJ Alibi's skills first hit with the Tres Presents: Shipping And Handling compilation. He [...]

Man I can't believe I haven't done a Black Milk post yet! Producer and MC Black Milk recently he released his first proper album Popular Demand after a few mixtape, EPs and one offs (did Sound of the City even get distribution?). I've been giving it a lot of spins lately, and it's worth the listen. The production alone is refreshing. This cat chops up shit like crazy and keeps it soulful (a hem... see here and here ). You gotta love that. One half of the [...]

It ain't all about the knock in the trunk and dookie ropes y'all. You need to give your earholes some sweet love from time to time. I thought I'd use a moment here to take it on back... back to some real soul from the ladies. It goes without need for mention I have a soft spot for the sweet stuff. I've been playing these out a mess lately*, so I figured I'd spread the love a little. Barbara Mason - Give Me Your Love Now I just love [...]
