DRUGS :: DON'T DO THEM



Even if they look like this... wtf?

:: WU MASSACRE ::

If any of you readers are Wu fans like myself I'm sure you are ready for this album to happen. With recent releases from Raekwon and Ghostface, which are both solid albums. This will be a great addition to the Wu legacy. They have released these 3 trailors to promote the album. Which are all inspired by the classic David Fincher flick "Seven".

Found all of this and more today. (ALL MINT) Shout out to my man NEIL NICE over @ TTL go pick up one of THESE!

RED BULL :: 45'S

This looks like a great event to make it out or even trek down to Houston for. Shouts to my dude DJ SUN , for being 1 of the most humble and creative people I've met in Texas ever! I randomly met him about a year ago @ Waterloo records and he blessed me with copies of his single DUBAI & PARA. Which you can purchase at GIGA CRATE, big up Nick Nack!!

MORE INFO ON DJ SUN @ SOULAR GOOVES

Plus don't forget the special guest of the event is CUT CHEMIST

A LITTLE ON THE EVENT...
Red Bull 45s - an event that takes a piece of record history and remixes it into an innovative evolution of the traditional DJ competition. The event pays tribute to yesteryear by tasking DJs with competing against each other using only the 7-inch 45 rpm records popular in the 1950s and 1960s. The competition format places four DJs in four opposite corners of the venue, with the crowd in the middle. Each DJ spins for no more than four minutes on 45 rpm records, with each subsequent DJ attempting to match the last beat of the previous DJ - without the help of any beat-matching programs. The goal of the event is to revive the once revered 45 rpm record while tasking DJs to use all their imagination and expertise to create a seamless and continuous flow of music. At the end of the event, one DJ will be declared the winner based on both his musical creativity and technical skill.

Opening DJ- Ceeplus Bad Knives
Featuring- DJ Sun, The Are, DJ John Doe, Brett Koshkin
Special Guest- Cut Chemist!

1992 :: MIXTAPE

I've got to say I'm a real picky dude. Sometimes it takes a lot to impress me and sometimes people don't really get it..... but I'll say that this mix-tape is everything and more! I've had this on non stop rotation lately... *(I'm not gassing anyone up right now)* In fact I played this at a local record swap this past weekend and everyone was big-ing the mix up! Shouts to Iron Lyon for this mix-tape! I briefly met him this past summer in New York @ Tuff Tuesdays. Also big up the man OSCAR !! 1/2 of the creators of the 1992 party ! If you seen me with one the panel caps on this is where it came from. Some of you might cash in on the idea of a 90's party, but if you didn't live it or understand the vibes it's hard to portray in my opinion...

here is a few flicks so you get the idea....

NATALIE STORM "GOD BLESS ME" VIDEO!



HUUUUUUGE!!, NEW VIDEO FROM NATALIE STORM! "GOD BLESS ME" on the "CHEESE TRIX" RIDDIM. NATALIE YOU LOOOOK AMAZING!!!!!!

R.I.P. GRANDMASTER ROC RAIDA




Recently we lost another great dj and inspiration to a lot of dj's, music fans, and hip hop heads. I have to say as a kid I strictly listened to the X-Men (Roc Raida, Total Eclipse, Mista Sinista, and Rob Swift). When I think about it they really got me into juggling and cuts. I spent hours trying to mimmick the sounds off of "X-PRESSIONS" album that was released in 97.

SALUTE -- "GRANDMASTER ROC RAIDA"
