Only Twelve Trying to Tell Me That He Like My Style
Tuesday, October 24th, 2006My child is going to get nothing but Sam Cooke and Big Daddy Kane in his crib. But recently I realized maybe the message I want my child to get from hip-hop won’t be so simple. I was reading an article in the Washington Post in which the author stated that she forbids her daughter [...]
What it is, What it did & What it do
Saturday, October 14th, 2006I was going to go easy on the Lupe. When the leak for Food & Liquor first went down, we hit you with a couple tracks. Well, maybe more than just a couple; not enough to have been bastards about it, but enough to make me feel a bit shitty and decide not to post [...]

Soft crème American Apparel shirts with our logo emblazoned across the chest [...]
"Back In the Day When I Was Young…"
Friday, September 29th, 2006The perspectives of hip-hop are being polarized within the context of a generational divide. There is a rift between forewarning voices that speak from experience and those of brash youthful romanticism. While many of the issues in hip-hop, such as class, race and family structure are universal concerns, the perspective (and consequently the message) radically [...]

With the Third Pick, I Made the Earth Sick
Friday, September 22nd, 2006In a genre where time moves like dog years, longevity has a peculiar and unique role in one’s legacy. Rappers make songs about “I’m back,” after a 6 month hiatus. Rakim is considered by many to be the best rapper ever; when was the last album he dropped that could hold up this claim? Rappers [...]
LA Party People
Monday, September 18th, 2006I know it’s been a minute since my last post, but I just wanted to let all my West Coast friends know that New York party rockers Caps & Jones will be getting down at La Cita in LA this Friday! Peep the flier and get at your boys for a downtown dancefest with no [...]

Simon Says "Shut The F**k Up!"
Thursday, September 14th, 2006The controversy over outside pressure that resulted in the editing and censoring of ABC and CBS 9/11 inspired films made me realize how little I have heard about efforts to censor hip-hop in the last few years. It’s not that rappers have had their mouths washed out [...]

Mehdi, umm… Rare
Monday, September 11th, 2006This is how he’s described on his myspace page:
DJ Mehdi gets so cosmic with the synths that it’s as if you’ve woken up in an alternative 1983, where Thatchers rule has been replaced by that of benevolent aliens.
His upcoming album, Lucky Boy, is magnificent. It’s my first real taste of a smoother side of the [...]
