What's the difference between Schooly D and Melanie Phillips? Where Mel was approvingly included in Anders Breivik's moronfesto, Schooly D's lyrics turn up as an example of what is bad about hip-hop. Phawker explains: Breivik includes a slightly bastardized version of John P McWhorter's 2003 anti-rap diatribe How Hip-Hop Holds Blacks Back, which singles out a few of the most sensational lines from Schooly D's proto-gangsta rap classic "PSK What Does It Mean?" to illustrate the toxicity of hip-hop. Breivik, naturally, is bending his evidence to fit his worldview, and doesn't include the [...]
Yo DOAC is back in the house bringing you more old skool hip hop history. So today Tuff Crew. some of you may know them some you of you may not but these guys have got some great music and deserve to get a mention. Following on from an earlier post feature Freshco and Miz I have decided to stick with a bit of a theme. The mighty DJ Miz hails from Philly and I think it only right to further showcase some more of their local talent. Plus props to my homie Mike for bringing this group to my [...]
Here at Consequence of Sound , we like to pay attention to musical guests on late night talk shows. Also, the Gorillaz are pretty popular right now, and they're cartoons, kind of. You might also remember the excellent DANGERDOOM, in which the notorious sometime-performer DOOM and one of the biggest producers going Danger Mouse put together a great album featuring members of Adult Swim 's cartoon comedy block. But both the cartoon-musician relationship and our love of the musical guest have deeper roots, namely in the guise of Space Ghost Coast to Coast . [...]

Man it feels good to be back in West Philly - home of the world's first gangsta rap song. Schooly D - PSK (What Does It Mean) Zshare | YSI | 320 kbps (If you want a rip of Gucci Time, you're gonna have to go dig that shit up)
The sound of Philly for the homeboy B. It's all about balance so when you do Stax , you have to even it out with Gamble & Huff from Philly International. The track, little known to current generations, that laid the foundation for Schooly's rap of the same name. Billy Paul - Am I Black Enough For You
A little over two years ago we published a feature called Sound Tracks that aimed to highlight some of the most memorable and musical scenes in modern cinematic history with the intention of demonstrating just how important musical scores and soundtracks are to any given film and scene-- some of the most revered scenes wouldn't be as powerful without the music that accompanied the action. We've been planning a follow-up to that feature, a sort of sequel (which will come in due time), but for this feature we took the general idea of Sound Tracks and applied [...]

I think we're all in agreement in these corners of the Inter Nets that there has been a grip of terrible hip hop coming out lately. From weak ass songs about nothing to crazy joints about makeup, it seems like folks ain't got nothing to say, and they got the busted beats to match. These people need to stop. And I need to stop with the Digiwaxx; it's making me straight up tired. It's enough to

If the film Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters isn't for everyone , then that could easily be said about the soundtrack. Some understanding of the hilariously cruel and bizarre world of the Adult Swim series is probably necessary to appreciate a milkshake singing a rock ballad called "Nude Love." But then again, how can you ever really truly understand a plot where the aforementioned milkshake (Master Shake,) a ball of hamburger (Meatwad) and a pack of fries (Frylock) attempt to save the world from [...]
