Black Collar Biz got a show!? He takes you into the Garden Variety (with words from the don Kasso ), as well as through many of his other travels. Loving this!

You might even hear me on some of those "hey, ho!" chants. Shouts to Rich . Shouts to Side-B. previous [recap] #GardenVariety (2/25/2012)

Some cats from Trenton. I'll let you judge how "awesome" this is.

Shouts to everyone who came through to the #GardenVariety show in Trenton last night. Had a nice crowd dumb early, and cats like Rich Quick , Skrew , Black Collar Biz , Mr. Fickle , Moe-Fit The Phenom and King Don set the show off right. There were some cats who got on the mic that I wasn't feeling, but Self set shit straight - he has some ideas that I truly hope come to fruition. As does Kasso . And Tone Liv , who I spent most [...]

I despise spelling "boys" "boiz", but I can't deny my town going in over this beat.

As I broke down in my #ForeverBlack recap , one of the MCs I got to check out over the weekend was NJ's Scoop . The homey Reggie Walker used a great word to describe Scoop: versatile. Dude definitely performed a track called "Pardon My Ignorance" , but it takes a smart mufucka to even get down like that. I was intrigued by his performance and his lyrics, and he has the talents to move and shake different sides of the Hip-Hop scene. He hit me with some links to some [...]

After spending the majority of the day out with the family, and coming home to relax, I set out last night to hit up Black Collar Biz 's #ForeverBlack mixtape release party, which went down last night at the Trenton Atelier, and wow. Great event. I got to meet some heads I'd never spoken with before (pease to Physical Graffiti , Luv1 and others), and got to talk to Kasso and Self about some things that they have planned. Should be an interesting 2012 for the NJ Hip-Hop scene. Anyways, [...]

The #GardenVariety show is going down on the 25th of February at the Trenton Atelier, and I'm kind of hype about this line-up! Guys like Skrewtape , Black Collar Biz , Mr. Fickle , Willie Dynomite , Rich Quick , Omega Ice and plenty more are going to be touching the mic, with beats from Divine Drummah & GovMattic , and DJs J.Gainey & Ahmad on the decks! $5 to get in, and there WILL be an open mic cipher. I'll be there, hopefully I can [...]

The first episode of Side-B TV is here ! I believe this drops on TV in two weeks, but Phil and Divine had to let this one fly. Loads of fresh Hip-Hop videos thrown between footage of the guys at a DJ Convention in Atlantic City, which features a dope interview with Da Beatminerz . Go in!

Kasso 's solo show is going down on the 2nd of March at Trenton Social. MC Pollock will be performing. I might be trying to run through here for a bit. FB event to interact with the community.

Don't forget, the release party is February 18th . I'll be there with an all-Black Devils fitted. And a bottle of Henny Black... maybe.

Another night of dope Hip-Hop coming up in Trenton on the 18th of February, to celebrate the release of Black Collar Biz 's Forever Black . Live performances from TOTG , Pop D , Physical Graffiti and plenty more, with live painting and featured visual artists. Word is there will not only be food, but there will be a cypher - and a raffle! It's BYOB, and $10 to come in (which nets you a copy of Forever Black ). No reason not to come, right? Full details via Facebook .

Wild how the world runs, isn't it? Back in May of 2010, I got introduced to Emcee Jermaine , who was hosting the Hip Hop Karaoke night in Trenton. That night, I not only had a dope conversation with dude, but heard a track of his entitled "The Anti-Anthem", and was instantly a fan. Over the last year and change, we'd kept in touch, and always managed to run into each other in and around the city. He had been talking about an album he wanted to release, prefaced by an EP that [...]

Been a minute since I got some heat from FurSun , and seeing this on Side-B's blog had me cracking up. My boy flipped a classic Chubb Rock track and managed to both pay homage and show how niggas do it in 2012. I remember when I first featured homey on RTD, and it's good to hear his progression since then. Need more like this, troop! DOWNLOAD FurSun " Treat Me Right " (prod. by Siggy 808er )
