Busy show last night. Marco Polo & Ruste Juxx came through to promote their new album "The eXXecution"as well as Jo Jo Pellegrino who's promoting his upcoming release "Real Spit". Jo Jo & Ruste bodied the freestyle at the end of the show as well. Marco did ok on adlibs.
I'll be out on the road with La Coka Nostra over the next few weeks so look for DJ Premier and DJ JS-1 to hold down "RIOC" with D-Stroy, J57 & Caesar until I return.
Here's the first video off of Doitall's (Lords Of The Underground) solo Debut "AMERICAN DU" produced by Pete Rock. Album Drops May 4th and will feature production by Pete Rock, The Real Focus, Scott Storch and many more.
This compilation came out in 2001 as I was just becoming familiar with some of the artists featured. It was the first time I heard C-Rayz Walz and I remember not really digging him at first, but he grew on me quite a bit. All the emcee's featured here are great and the album is solid. Fakts One handles about half the production on the album
As far as the label is concerned, I don't think they lasted too long after this release. There were a few singles and I think Akro released an LP or an EP on the label, but I can't find a whole lot of information, as their website is no more. Regardless, this LP is well worth the listen.
Today, we got new joints from WYDU favorite, E The Real. Dude is gearing up for an album, The Wall Street Project, set to drop in the next few months. I've heralded E as one of those straight up, go for the throat, type of emcee. These tracks are no different. First is a remix of one of my favorite songs from E, "Keys of Success" by DJ Ross Rosco. The second is a Dilla flip...but wait, before you say "It's been done before", just hear E rhyme over the Dilla beat that he did for Men In Hats, that cheesy 80's music that I still cringe at when I hear. But this one works.....Check for yourselves
DJ Ross Rosco blessed us with a new remix for E The Real’s song “Key To Success”. Ross mixed in the classic “Livin Proof” instrumental while E does what he does. If you missed the original version produced by Paul Mighty you can check that below too.
Stones Throw recently leaked a new song off a new J Dilla project where Dilla flips a beat from the 80’s dance hit “Safety Dance” from the group “Men Without Hats”. Leave it to Dilla to sample a song that some people would consider cheesy or a guilty pleasure and turn it into a track that Hip Hop heads drool over. E The Real is no exception. E decided to create his own “Safety Dance Remix” thanks to J Dilla’s amazing beat which he called “Men With Hats”. Dilla has a unique influence on the game that most producers will never achieve. E isn’t known to use “industry beats”, but on this occasion Dilla had E hooked and he couldn’t get the tune out of his head. Now he made his own version that will stick in your head. Kinda Dusty would like to apologize in advance. Enjoy!
For Lady Daisey, the hits just keep on coming. If you remember right, we've been previewing the songs for her first single, "Magical," from her upcoming album, In My Pocket. The digital single features the original and four remixes from her friends, DJ Vadim, Supa Dave West, Paten Locke and Batsauce. Today, we have not only the Supa Dave West remix for the masses, but we also have a (key the music) WORLD-WORLD-WORLD-WORLD P-P-Premiere, with Paten Locke's remix. Did I mention, it's the first time heard anywhere?
You may remember Supa Dave West from his De La Soul fame. He did some production for artists such as De La Soul and Phife. It's good to see him add his twist to the creation of the single. It's a rather dope beat that fits well.
Lady Daisey - Magical "Supa Dave West Remix"
The second is probably my favorite so far and of course it's from Paten Locke. Paten just takes the original concept and adds on to it. I'm not sure if it's better than the original, but it's just as enjoyable.
