I’ll let the Youtube video speak for itself! Very dope cut featuring Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) off Breakestra’s new album. Highly Recommended!

Watching these videos by DJ 3rd Rail made me realize how much I miss being on the radio. They also made me realize how much I miss seeing DJs playing records. We are experiencing very different times when it comes to DJs these days.
I can’t say enough about Damu as a producer and artist. He’s steadily delivered some of the most enjoyable pieces of music I’ve heard in a long time. And thanks to the folks over at Kilawatt we have another beautifully produced piece of wax from him. Kilawatt: V1 offers two really dope vocal cuts, “Day By Day”, and “Prosper” featuring Raw Poetic. You’ll also find two brilliantly constructed bonus beats-well there’s also a third beat on there but it’s not listed on the cover or label that you’ll definitely love as well. Beats are fat, vocals dope! what more can you ask for in a Hip Hop record? Highly recommended! Available now at selected online retailers or through,
I was told that this record was pressed from the original studio tapes featuring Tribe’s instrumental tracks. It’s possible I guess, but I’m not sure I buy that story to tell you the truth. Only because I know show vinyl for all the Tribe albums exist and I figure these instrumentals were most likely lifted from those rare LPs. But for a possible bootleg, the sound quality is actually pretty nice. Here you’ll find selected instrumentals from Tribe’s first three albums, like, “Push It Along”, “Show Business”, “Steve Biko (Stir It Up)”, “Luck Of Lucien”, “Infamous Date Rape”, among other unreleased beats. Definitely recommended!
Anyway, the remaining copies of this 7″ were ordered to be turned over to Stones Throw Records as part of a settlement against the unauthorized release of material recorded by PB Wolf and Charizma. Continue reading Charizma & Peanutbutter Wolf 7″
The vinyl is limited to 400 copies and will only be available through select online retailers including, Peace!
Finally we see the new PUTS album on wax packaged in a spiffy gatefold cover. We’re also seeing the second limited vinyl release in the form of a promo 7″ single for “Beer”, the Colt 45 Remix produced by Thes One! Apparently only 1000 copies of this promo seven were pressed and are available through select retailers carrying the new LP. Or you can also find the 7″ at shows or through OM Records upon purchasing the LP-at least that’s the word on the street. The LP version also offers two bonus cuts you won’t find on the CD version of “Carried Away”. “Carried Away” is available in stores now. “All Good Things” (Only found on LP version of “Carried Away”)
“Beer” Colt45 Remix on limited 7″ promo (Produced by Thes One)
Why is Kev Brown so under appreciated as a producer?! It boggles the mind really. The man constructs some of the most hypnotic beats I’ve ever listened to and his bass lines are just insane! Please put these on vinyl! Kev Broowwn!
Colemine has generally released deep Funk records up to this point, so seeing a Boom Bap styled Hip Hop record from them is a very uncommon occurrence indeed. But I guess if you’re gonna release a Hip Hop record and still keep it funky, this is a step in the right direction. “Active Balance” is a mid tempo tune-very catchy featuring recent Stones Throw champ Mayor Hawthorne on the soulful hook. On the flip you have Othello and Theory Hazit trading flows over a funky drum break driven by guitar twangs. Highly recommended! |
