Peace to the homey Gee and the Beast Corp camp for not being afraid to have fun in hip hop. In a genre where mean mugs seem to run rampant, these fellas decided to leave the book bag with the hammer at home and instead have a good time with the ladies.
Beast Corps & Tony Touch - Spitting To The Oldies mixtape
Hot off the press we have a brand new mix from my mellow my man Justin Schumacher. This dude has been super busy this year between putting out quality tracks, doing gigs and dropping the S.I.N. album alongside I Am Many. Give this a listen, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Step out of the norm and indulge yourself in some serious fetish/BDSM with I Am Many's newest video from the Strength In Numbers album. The song, 'More Black' speaks on the darker side of NYC, where freaks run rampant, heels are licked and dicks get kicked in...all for pleasure. This video definitely steps away from the normality in which average hip hop videos are shot and you can do nothing short but tip your hat to the man for taking chances in a genre where the bigger your hat is the cooler you are.
Went out to Austin Texas this past weekend with Brooklyn Raga Association and took a couple photos from our stay out there. I've got to say, people from Austin (at least the ones that I met) were pretty fuckin' awesome. I got to check out some pretty ill bands but the standout for me as well as my friends was Bambino, a band from Niger that seriously killed the stage. Chances are, I'll be doing it again next year being that I didn't really get to check out a lot of the city. Regardless, the time spent there was great.
Big Charlie from Sunset has been doing his thing for a minute now and with this joint he definitely came out with guns blazing. This shit demands to be bumped heavy in the whip while troopin' thru BK. Be on the lookout for his upcoming mixtape Say Hello To The Nice Guy.
Just peeped out on The Village Voice that my beloved Southpaw is closing next month. This deeply saddens me being that I've had so many awesome times there and have memories that will last a lifetime. From going there almost every first Saturday of the month to peep out The Rub or to go check some of the worlds biggest hip hop acts, I've always had a good time. From what I've read, it looks like a tutoring center is taking it's place. Ouch.
