Tonight – Rakim @ Fortune Sound Club

Tonight – Rakim @ Fortune Sound Club I read an article the other day that suggested there are two types of rappers, those who came before Rakim and those who came after. And while I'm no rap historian, I'm pretty sure this is true. Rakim (real name William Michael Griffin Jr) was making music before I was even born. He first came onto the scene in 1986, when his formative rap duo, Eric B & Raki, released "Eric B. Is President" to mass hysteria. In the years that followed, Rakim would release [...]

Hip Hop – Throwback Classics

Hip Hop – Throwback Classics Time to take all you young whippersnappers to school and give some ageing b-boys out there a much needed flashback to hip-hop's better days. Ok so maybe that last bit is a matter of  personal opinion but it's undeniable that the ' Golden Era ' of hip hop did yield some legitimate hits that have stood the test of time. What is also true is that these records weren't made with laptops and iPods in mind. So grow a set, take off your headphones, plug in your speakers and play them LOUD: Its got [...]

Eric B & Rakim – Paid In Full (Coldcut Remix)

Eric B & Rakim – Paid In Full (Coldcut Remix) Rakim played in Glasgow this week and got me thinking about this week's classic. During the hip hop golden age. Eric B and Rakim were regarded as being at the top of the tree for the genre. This DJ/MC combo had an unparalleled chemistry and were seen as innovators of the genre. Who better to remix them than Ninja Tune founders and original remixers Coldcut . The song speaks for itself! Paid In Full - Eric B. & Rakim (The [...]

#59 – Is It Really Bigger Than Hip Hop?

Biggie VS Tupac
By Josh Bowles - There's Hip Hop and there's "Hip Hop". The East and West coasts of America are undoubtedly the two historical powerhouses and they fall into this second category. It is well accepted that Hip Hop originated in New York City during the 1970s with lyrical dexterity that differs from all other old school Hip Hop. This original foundation can still be heard through the beats produced by the likes of Jay-Z, which have a tendency to focus on lyrics above all else. Notably, [...]

Mrs Mackerel’s TFI Friday (11th March)

Oh yeah… me and MM are enjoying a glass of the special stuff tonight. And we’ve waited a bit for this. In the last two or three years, I’ve come across a few genetic mutations of female adult vermin of a highly toxic strain. But guess what? Tonight, at least, a little justice has been done. They’ve gone where the goblins go, below… Well not really, but figuratively. So tonight’s music selections are with this in mind. I tell you, you cannot imagine what this means. A strike back for the small person. The pen is mightier than [...]

J.Period - In the Ghetto (Wake Up!) (Feat. Black Thought, John Legend, Rakim)

J.Period - In the Ghetto (Wake Up!) (Feat. Black Thought, John Legend, Rakim) Two legendary MCs hook up here (Is Black Thought in the legend conversation? We think so.) with an assist from some other dude with Legend in his name. In prepping this post, I spun Eric B. and Rakim's "In the Ghetto" a few times this afternoon. It's crazy how fresh it still sounds. Track is 20 years old. J.Period, who helmed this remake, absolutely does the original justice. The addition of electric pianos give the song a certain new depth and fit the vocal stylings of the track's new personnel quite well (Black Thought & John Legend). Legend, really stands [...]

Fingerbanger Friday: Almond Milk

Fingerbanger Friday: Almond Milk Its always refreshing to know that no matter how weird of a thought I have - someone else has had the same idea and written about it on the internet. Not that off shore bank accounts are weird by any means, and thats not even what I was thinking about when I wrote that first sentence; but now that I'm thinking about it, I might as well try and figure out how to shield my $22 in liquid assets from my government's greedy spoiled-child-like entitlement. Nothing signals the beginning of snowboard than the sweet sweet basslines [...]

Mountain's "Long Red" sampled

In 1972, rock band Mountain released a live album that opened with drummer Corky Laing dropping the beat to "Long Red" and frontman Leslie West goading the crowd: "Are you out there? Louder! Well, clap your hands to what he's doin'. On tempo, Jack! Yeah!"The constituent pieces of those 22 seconds have gone on to be sampled in at least 50 hip-hop tracks in the time since, some of which are
