Roc Marciano – Emeralds (Video)

I swear to god noone is paying me money for this (if you want to though…. well, lets talk), it just so happens all the best shit to happen today involves Roc Marci’s camp haha. So continuing with the marcithon – here is the official video for the ill arch druids produced ‘Emeralds’. Reloaded due “summer” 2012. I dont know when summer is in the US, june?


KA – Vessel

KA drops another self made video from Grief Pedigree. If you haven’t got that album yet, you should do yourself a big favor and go grab it. I cant remember if i posted his other videos, it seems like the sort of thing i would do – but i cant find them with the search box, so here they are again.

and my personal favorite


Roc Marciano – Do The Honors 7″

I’m still all sorts of sick so the blog’s been a bit quiet, sorry about that. However i DID just get an interesting email from the good people over at Goodfellons. They’ve been quietly releasing a bunch of pretty great vinyl recently, and this one may be of some interest. Roc Marci and Dino Brave teamed up to do a song with Lost Occupant over a beat produced by Don Chalant of the Arch Druids. Since a new UN record is probably not likely, this might be the closest we’ll get.

Press is limited to 350: 110 green and 240 black on 7″ vinyl. Worth grabbing for the collectors out there. Head on over to their site and take a squiz. It’s still in the pre-order stage but i’ve ordered vinyl from these guys before and they’ve always come through.


The worlds fastest lotus*

*citation needed.

Whether this actually is the worlds fastest lotus (i’ve done literally no research into this), it’s got to be up there. 680whp and weighs less than a tonne. Twin charged 1.8L engine (ie. supercharged AND turbocharged), better power to weight ratio than Mario Andretti’s Formula One Lotus – and way better than a Veyron. This thing would be crazy to drive.

Ps. If you like cars, subscribe to Drive’s channel on youtube.


Gensu Dean – Forever ft. Lard Professor

This one is from Gensu Dean’s debut album, Lo-Fi Fingaz, which is out now


Jakk Frost – Punks jump up to get beat down (gmix) ft. Smif N Wessun, Sadat X & Kre Froch

Bit slow on the updates this week, sorry about that. Been sick and haven’t been fucking with the outside world.

Today getting back into it with the Beard gang remix of Brand Nubians classic. Throwback Jakk available here


KRS ONE live in Adelaide 16.03.12

Some video i shot on the iPhone last night. It’s a bit shaky and blurry, pretty hard to hold a steady, in focus, shot with one hand on an iphone while you’re holding a drink and shoulder to shoulder with a bunch of rowdy rap fans haha. Great show


It’s Friday

Friday. fuck yeah.


Nas – The Don

Produced by Salaam Remi, Da Internz and the late Heavy D (RIP)


Shit Hop update: Reh-Dog is still running things

The “why must i cry” guy is back with CGI explosions and everything.The most worrying part of this video, and i guess ‘why must i cry’ also, is that someone sold him guns.

To be fair, judging by his youtube channel, he never stopped making level 50 shit hop. But i cant be expected to be on top of everything you know. The internet is too big for that, and lets face it – who has time to watch a 30 minute video of the ‘why must i cry’ guy giving his thoughts on whatever it is he thinks.


Planet Asia – Whirlwind Patterns

Another visual from Blackbelt Theater which is out now.

Action Bronson & Party Supplies – Hookers at the point

Action Bronson has teamed up with Party Supplies for “Blue Chips”, which is dropping March 12. Blurb to follow

With the most intriguing collaboration since Public Enemy & Anthrax, Action Bronson & Party Supplies have crafted a hypnotic joint that takes us to the streets of Hunts Point in 1993. Inspired by the classic HBO documentary of the same name, Action offers up a shocking first hand account from the stunted lives of streetwalkers: Cyndi, a prostitute addicted to crack, Silk, a violent, misogynistic pimp and Ramón, a former athlete turned junkie. Directed by Rik Cordero.

Blue Chips is a project that allows me to give something back to all the people who have been supporting me during the last year. Party Supplies and myself linked up in the late fall and over the span of a few weeks created this project entirely off the cuff. We didn’t over think it, we just had fun making music with no pressures of making a “hit song”, clearing of samples or sales expectations. – Action Bronson


Maffew Ragazino – Decepts on the L train (video)

Some visuals to go with Maffew Ragazino’s ode to the L train. This song was also featured on producer ATG’s mixtape titled, The Susan Sarandon Story. Maffew’s new mixtape, Rare Gems 2 Black Gold, should hopefully be out soon.
