Since this is the last day of Black History Month, I thought that it was only right to drop a lil something on ya'll. Change has come & now there are no more excuses. In the words of the great Negro poet Reggie Noble "It's Time for Some Action"....
Super-Producer & Super-Engineer linked up at the world famous Headquarterz Studios(formerly D & D) last night. Preem showed us not only mad love but broke out the actual FLOPPYS (yes i did say FLOPPY) discs that contained some of his classic tracks. Busta Rhymes was in the place & blessed us with the preview of a new collabo with Preemo.........WOWZERS!!!!!!!
Big shout to my man Young Guru who went from behind the engineering boards last summer to behind the turntables for Jay-Z as his official DJ on the Blueprint 3 tour & beyond.....
Another gem from the vaults of Golden Era Hip Hop, one of the early performances of L.O.N.S. in 1990 at Kilmanjaro club in NYC for Elektra Records Hard to the Left campaign">
True school Hip Hop is alive & well thanks to Rich Medina & Akalepse weeekly event PROPS at NYC's Le Poisson Rouge (aka LPR) Guest DJ Kemit took it exactly where i needed to go with breaks, originals, golden era hip hop etc.....We were in for a special treat with Rene Neufville (Zhane) who took the mic & sang lush melodies over Kemits choice selections. Then when Rich took the set it went downnnnn. Grand Puba got on the mic & kicked Brand Nubian rhymes over every Nubian record that Rich threw on. Then Rene sang the hook to Hey Mr.DJ while Puba added his part "On & On & On & On"....... mere words cannot express, but the flix should help.
Another gem from the vaults of golden era of hip hop. Brand Nubian performs All for One at Kilamanjaro club in NYC in December 1990 for Elektra's Hard to the Left campaign.
