Hip Hop Guard



Saw this on nahright a couple sleeps ago. I wasnt gonna touch on it but im curious as to what you filthy mc nasties think. At first you cant help but stand back and look at it as another respected rapper just mad at the current state of the scene but the man brings up some interesting points. Obviously there is a top tier of Exec/MCs in the game that have more pull (or push) in certain circles. Shiet i know you raised your monobrow at the whole Hip-Hop-Is-Dead-and-President-Jiggas-Kingdom-Come release situation.

Would Puffy sign another fat-black-ugly-as-ever rapper? probably not. The music biz is too American Idoled for that. Someone take a risk mates! But you gotta respect young ass Souljah Boy for saying fuck the guard and doing it himself to the point hes got a yellow lambourghinni on his new clip. i dont care if its rented, that young dude definitely has enough to buy one.

funny shit.



ooh damn this was the funniest shit. Just found this floating around on the net. Any one who went to the K-Ci and Jojo concert a few years back wouldve been treated to an interesting performance by the brothers. Now as a performer it is acceptable to have a beer or two before you take the stage to calm your nerves. Done it heaps of times. But you gotta be careful not to step over that fine line with your pre performance drinks to the point your forgetting your words or drying your throat up. done that too. But these dudes Auckland performance took the cake, Jojo had one too many long island ice teas and straight up passed out on stage! K-Ci the consumate professional holding it down. party like a rockstar but give the fans their moneys worth mate.

Afternoon sportsfans! Check out a new track from Live At The Apollo 2. Its called "Pork Buns (coconut deriere)" and features my man Sanjesh.

Ive had enough time to put together the second installment to my "Live At The Apollo" series. Its near completion and should be ready for your consumption in a couple of weeks. For those not in the know, the theme of Live At the Apollo is just myself and a couple of choice friends spitting over dry, or semi dry original samples of popular hip hop tracks. Click here to download the first volume.

So check it out mates, some exclusive shit from the second volume sees moi freaking Hossam Ramzy's "Khusara Khusara" track as made popular by Jay Z for "Big Pimping" stay posted for more shit. CHING CHING!

R.I.P Bernie Mac

Wow, read this on teletext in the weekend. :) The great Bernie Mac passed on. Now i read a few weeks earlier there were rumours that Bernie Mac had passed and people in his camp were saying the man was in hospital with pneumonia but still able bodied. dude was legendary in his field. add that with Isaac Hayes passing and kiwi born U.S volleyball coach and you have an allround blue state of affairs.

DMCs NZ 2008.



Big ups to my man DJ Impact for taking out the 2008 DMCs on Saturday night at a packed out Zen! damn the Waikato doing well in everything aye? hurr hurr. never the less it was an awesome display of skills and Impact definitely deserved that monster of a prize pack, including that trip to London to compete in the international comp. funny seeing djs messily chucking vinyl and shit everywhere again as oposed to having an open laptop next to their turnies. thats a sight i havent seen for a while. aaaaaahh.

the results were as follows: 1st - DJ Impact. 2nd DJ DForm. & 3rd DJ Spell.
but dont take my word for it.... check out the picture above mate!! :D :D

NEW EXCLUSIVE DEVOLO TRACK!!

had to start the week off with a bang! so here you go sports fans, a track from Devolos forthcoming debut solo LP "Heaven & Hell" i found floating around on the net. I think its been leaked from the dawn raid studio engineer........ anyways! the track is rough and is fresh outta the pro tools session, so its yet to be mixed and mastered but its still decent enough to listen to, so go on and give it a whirl!

The track is called "What We Do" and is produced by yours truly! working on this album has been refreshing and satisfying, partly due to the fact that its finally cool to see my mans get his just due on the solo tip. "Heaven & Hell" instores and online in September. nah mean nah mean?
