Thursday Throwback: Main Source – Fakin’ The Funk

by Arasia Magnetic February 9, 2012 Music Videos

“Neek the Exotic breaks backs and necks/When fakes try to front, they get smoked like blunst/My rhymes penetrate like skunk/Ayo word up, I think you’re fakin’ the funk” Stunting, flossing, catching vapors or whatever you want to call it is never kosher. And Main Source told these suckas that 20 years ago on the track, [...]

Thursday Throwback: Chi-Ali – Funky Lemonade

by Arasia Magnetic February 9, 2012 Music Videos

I’ve never been a massive fan of kid rappers (still not) but I always got down with the Native Tongue’s youngest member Chi-Ali. He released a few tracks in the early 90’s that I checked for from his album, The Fabulous Chi-Ali, before disappearing after making sporadic appearances by the close of the decade. Unfortunately, [...]

Thursday Throwback: Wu-Tang Clan – Protect Your Neck [Music Video]

by Thomas November 10, 2011 Thursday Throwback

Another album turned 18 yesterday as well, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Yeah…I know I’m late, but hey. I hope that RZA, Steve Rifkind, or whomever owns the masters to Enter the…. does this album justice in 2013 with a remastered/deluxe set with some extras. Wishful thinking I guess.

Complex continues with their series of interviewing an artist about their favorite songs/albums. This go around they grabbed the Wu-Tang O.G., Method Man.

Thursday Throwback: Mic Geronimo – Masta I.C. [Music Video]

by Thomas October 13, 2011 Music Videos

In November 1995 (when Mic‘s debut album, The Natural dropped) I was a 18 yr old freshman at the local community college with no care in the world. Only priorities at that time were attending classes, working weekends, and making it to basketball practice on time. This song reminds me of those care free times with [...]
