Track of the Day: Quiet Storm

by Thomas October 17, 2009 Track of The Day

Thought this song would be appropriate as it has been raining since early Thursday evening in Maryland. Listening to this song…man Prodigy was nice with the written. Hit the jump for the lyrics and download link.

Cormega: Radiant Jewels [Track of the Day]

Cormega is dope period. I’ve always wonder why he isn’t mentioned as a Top rapper of his era? His voice is an acquired taste, his rhymes aren’t too complex; but he paints vivid pictures with his words. I remember Nas giving him a shout on “One Love” and first hearing his voice on “Affirmative Action” [...]

Michael Jackson: R.I.P.

by Thomas June 26, 2009 Music

As you all know Michael Jackson died yesterday. I’ve been watching t.v., reading all of the tweets, reading all of the reports on the net, looking at video’s, listening to his music, since coming back into my house around 8 pm last night. I remember staying in front of the t.v. waiting for the “Thriller” [...]

Mos Def: Say You Will (The Blue Note, NYC 1-25-09)

by J. Rizzle June 12, 2009 Around The Net

At the top of the year Mos performed six shows at the The Blue Note Jazz Club in NY backed by the RCDC Experiment. During this particular show Mos covers Kanye’s “Say You Will” from 808′s & Heartbreak and kills it. This track has been floating around the net since April, but we thought we [...]

Wale: Family Affair

by Thomas June 4, 2009 Music Videos

Another leak from Rik Cordero’s Inside A Change Soundtrack (website) off of his movie of the same title. Wale drops a dope track and so far this soundtrack seems like something I should be checking for when its released. If you missed them grab the Saigon and J.A.M.E.S. Watts tracks.

Track of the Day: We Can’t Win

by Thomas May 16, 2009 Track of The Day

I just recently upgraded my cassette tape of AZ’s stellar debut album Doe or Die to CD. When the finances allow I do this from time to time. After giving the album a few spins and “refreshing my memory” a few things jump out.

Track of the Day: The Sun

by Thomas April 25, 2009 Track of The Day

This is for our homie Alex. While we were compiling the set for Ghostface’s Bulletproof Wallets we searched forever and a day for the sample source for “The Sun,” but never was able to locate it. Well last night while searching The Breaks a contribtor on the forums (Beeboy) posted the source and link for [...]

Track of the Day: Express Yourself

by Thomas April 1, 2009 Track of The Day

NWA was the group that made an East Coast born and bred music lover take notice of West Coast artist…..we had to rep them today.

Track of the Day: Soul on Ice [Original + Remix]

by Thomas March 31, 2009 Track of The Day

Love this picture! Ras Kass is one of the dopest lyricist that the West has to offer in Hip Hop. However, his production has always been an Achilles heel (along with label drama/incarceration).
