R.I.P CHRIS LIGHTY

REST IN PEACE CHRIS LIGHTY!  As of this morning the NYPD is investigating the death of Chris Lighty as an apparent suicide.  Many questions are still unanswered.  Check out the news report out of NY below.

WAY BACK WEDNESDAY VIDEO

This weeks Way Back Wednesday Video comes from one of the dopest duos to ever grace a stage.  Pete Rock and CL Smooth have been blessing hip hop heads with the perfect combination of beats and lyrics since they dropped the debut EP, All Souled Out, in 1991.  Straight out of the Money Earnin Mount Vernon, they followed up with the 1992 LP release of Mecca & The Soul Brother.

This joint continues to be one of the songs that heads everywhere can recite word for word.  Enjoy, and "Bring back that ol style of Hip Hop".

UPCOMING SHOWS TO THE OBSERVATORY

Yo what it do world?  A few days back I mentioned the upcoming show for GZA at The Observatory in Santa Ana CA.  This is not the only show that the folks over there have booked to come through the county of Orange.  This man A$AP Rocky will be showing up on Harbor in late October to bless the stage with Schoolboy Q, Danny Brown, and A$AP Mob.  If you haven't heard the A$AP brothers coming out of NY, then download some of the shit they have put out.  A$AP Mob has just released a new mixtape for free and I will include the link here at the bottom of this post, along with an A$AP Rocky jawn that is NASTY!

CLASSIC SHIT COMING TO SOCAL

Yo, shouts out to the new owners of the Observatory in Santa Ana for bringing that real Hip Hop back to SoCal.  If you don't know about this place, it used to be called the Galaxy Theatre.  Truly one of my favorite places to see a show.  It is small so the vibe is very intimate, unlike seeing someone at a 17,000 seat venue.  The performer is literally 50 feet away from you.  I would definitely recommend that you check out a show there,

And here is as best a reason as ever to go to http://www.observatoryoc.com and buy some tickets.  On Friday, September 28th, the legendary WU TANG CLAN member, GZA, will be playing the entire classic Liquid Swords album.  What a fucking treat!  That album is one of the greatest to come out the WU solo projects without a doubt.  The tickets are 20.00 to see the man do his thang, so get yo ass logged on and cop them duckets.

BUSTA RELEASES NEW ALBUM FOR FREE

Watch out now!  A FREE album from a living fucking legend.  Thats right, the man we know as Busta Rhymes, Busta, The Dungeon Dragon, and Busta Bus, has blessed the hip hop world with a new album.  To sweeten the deal he has released the shit for FREE!  You can go to the link at the bottom of this story and click to cop this new record. 

From his days with the Leaders Of the New School, to his reign as the General of the Flipmode Squad, to countless solo albums, Busta Rhymes has ripped mics and bodied beats with the best of them.  He truly is one of the best talents the Rap world has seen.  When you hear this man growling over a beat with that signature voice, you know that a legend in the rap game is present.  I can still remember the first time I ever heard "The Scenario" on the classic Tribe album The Low End Theory!

ILLMATIC FOREVER

There are alot of new heads in the rap game nowadays.  And that brings along alot of new fans to the frontline. I would like to welcome all of these young bucks to the show and would like to let'all know that Lil Wayne did not start this shit. As part of a history lesson provided by this site, I would like to invite you to reach out and get your grimy ass hands on a copy of this CLASSIC HIP Hop album. Nas just performed on the second night of the San Bernadino edition of the Rock The Bells concert series. I am sure he ripped shit, but I am also sure that there was more than one under 20 in the audience pissed off that Soulja Boy wasn't headlining the show.










I have recently peeped out the VH1 Behind the Music on Nas and found out a few interesting facts on the man named Nas. Did you know that Russel Simmons had the opportunity to sign Nasty Nas to Def Jam and passed. What a big mistake. Or how about the fact that Nas did "NY State of Mind" in one take. That song is a classic and that shit sounds so smooth, its hard to believe. But according to Complex magazine, “If you listen to ‘N.Y. State of Mind’” continued Premier. “You’ll hear him going, ‘I don’t know how to start this shit,’ because he literally just wrote it. Before he started the verse, I was signaling him going, ‘One, two, three,’ and he just goes in.”









Easily one of the Top 5 Hip Hop albums of all time, Illmatic still gets play in the rides of many hip hop fans around the world. And if you happen to run into a youngster that has not heard this album, let that cat listen to yours and lets educate this generation of skinny jean wearing heads.

NEW MC EIHT MIXTAPE

If you live in Cali or anywhere else in the USA, and you grew up with Colors, Boyz N the Hood, and Menace II Society, you have heard of this Compton G.  MC Eiht has been relatively quiet for a while now, but this Bluestamp Music release of the DJ Nik Bean mixtape, puts the man back in the conversation.  The Comptons Most Wanted veterano has been lacing the ears of Gs for over two decades now.  If you forgot how dope this man is, get them old CMW albums out and hit some gotdamn switches in that '64 Impala. 

This mixtape gets down and is defenitely worth the download.  The mutha fucka is FREE on this Livemixtapes.com shit.  Track 3 "You Dont Know Me" is worth the time to download this 16 track heater.  And remember "theres gangstas everywhere".

Here is the link to get your download on. http://www.livemixtapes.com/download/18429/mc_eiht_allstarz_strapz_3.html
