With the overwhelming popularity of the first compilation I put together last week, there was no question that I had to put together a second volume. At the time of this writing, American Gangster: Best of The Remixes, Vol. I has had over 1,000 downloads! That’s simply amazing to me. I guess […]

It’s been a slow day today, but the closer we get to the end of the month, the closer we are to hearing Nicolay & Kay’s new album TIME:LINE. Yesterday I got an email from Nicolay’s publicist and they’ve provided us with an exclusive listen to a new track off the album, which just happens […]

In honor of the birthday of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I wanted to take a moment to dedicate a post to the great Dr. King by sharing video footage and transcripts from his monumental 1963 speech “I Have A Dream”. Dr. King’s dream is a vision that still lives on today. […]

It’s awesome that people have been inspired to dig after seeing some of the sample collections posted on this site. The web site’s Hip Hop Is Read & Lyrics To Go have collectively teamed up to give us the original samples used for Mos Def’s classic debut Black On Both Sides.
This set looks juicy with […]

Ok, I know you all have been waiting for this one… we’ll here it is… all the original samples Dr. Dre used for his classic solo debut The Chronic. Diggin’ for this collection was a little more difficult than I had thought it would be. Grant it there are a lot of P-Funk samples […]

Alright now this dude took the American Gangster concept to another level here. This is Native American Gangster and comes from Chief Sneed. No it doesn’t use strictly samples from Native American songs, like I thought when I saw the title, but check this out… Chief Sneed is trying to bring the cassette tape back. […]

I got another huge update for you all here. This post may be heavy in quantity, but it definitely does not lack in quality. I can personally say that every single album present in this post is hot! So without further ado, let’s get this thing jumpin’!
ROUND 82: American Bangers
This first one […]

When you think male R&B, the first names that may come to mind are Usher, Omarion, Chris Brown or (quality forbid) T-Pain. These artists prominence in the genre have created an arch-type in which to follow because their crossover appeal as entertainers have given them a supple amount of success. But wherein lies that down-to-earth […]

Damn, Ivan over at Hip-Hop Is Read must have way too much time on his hands! We just finished that Biggie sample collection and now I see he’s got a new one up. This one looks interesting too… Redman’s Muddy Waters. I know a little about Redman, but have never been a huge fan. Maybe […]

I’m gonna be working with some people in the coming weeks to hopefully do some artist development/promotion and this here is just a taste of some of the new raw talent you’ll be hearing.
CP is an emcee out of Tennesse and is about to drop his new mixtape, The Stash Box, in a couple of […]

Can you believe we’re in the 80s with these things? I never thought we’d come this far, but there are some quality remixes out there!
With the 80+ American Gangster remixes released, it was inevitable that someone would slap Jay over some dirty south beats. And the man that has done it is DJ Dyce, out […]

New track from Ntelligence called “Monkey Shit” off of his upcoming album Black Boy Lost, produced by MIDIMarc. Thanks to Krome for the vinyl graphic… ain’t it sweet?
This track is something you wouldn’t expect from MIDIMarc… it’s got that Pimp C (R.I.P.) down south groove. Nicely done guys… can’t wait for the album!

This is what happens when you get two hip hop heads together… and it’s about time! After months of discussion and about a week of diggin’, Ivan (from Hip-Hop Is Read) and myself are proud to present our first collective sample collaboration. We picked a huge one for our first effort… The Notorious […]

Two new American Remixes here.. both without album covers.
The first one comes from The Watchmen, out of New York. They didn’t do the whole album though… only six tracks, but they did a good job; worth checking out. These guys are interested in an album cover is anyone wants to hook them up.
Download […]

Man, if I keep getting remixes of this caliber, I’ll NEVER finish Volume II! But I’m gonna say it now, there will not be a Volume III… don’t quote me though. LOL
This next remix comes from SoulKlap. No, not DJ SoulClap (who we all know and love). This SoulKlap hails from Ohio and he calls […]

Yeah, well, the 12 Days of Getback is finally over. Even if it was technically 11 days, which lasted damn close to 3 weeks! But we still got love for ya, Phonte & Pooh! The fact that they even made these outtakes available was amazing… so I ain’t bein’ greedy.
For those of you who missed […]

Just when I thought these things were slowing down, I get hit with another 4 or 5 in my inbox today. Maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned Best of, Vol. II was in the works. Haha, naw… we wanna give everyone a chance. But I don’t know if I can sit through 80 of these things! […]
