After the fire incident at Diddy’s Dirty Money party, I almost went out and bought the album.  I don’t know if I should listen to Michael Jackson’s new album though, seeing how 50 Cent is on it.  Just in case you haven’t seen the chick’s hair catch on fire at Diddy’s party, you have to watch it below.  Shout out to Kevin Hart.  ”Did the camera catch that????????”  Happy Holidays.


Technical Difficulties

I have been experiencing several issues with my site recently.  Things like formatting have been giving a lot of trouble and now, most youtube videos will not play on my site which is due to permission rights or some shit.  I apologize to everyone for these issues.  I haven’t had time to really look into to see what is going on but hopefully I will get it figured out soon even if I have to post links that will take you back to youtube to listen to the music.  I’m guessing that getting permission for your site isn’t as easy as changing a setting but hopefully.  Regardless, I will continue to post stuff so you can at least get some of my thoughts and feedback, my own music and add a couple extra clicks so you can hear what I am listening to at the moment.  This Aloe Blacc guy is the SHIT.  I highly suggest listening to his album, Good Things.  Happy Holidays.

I Need A Dollar

I just heard this cat Aloe Blacc’s I Need A Dollar for the first time on 2DopeBoyz performing live with The Roots and was blown away.  I think I have heard snippets of this song before but DAMN, I Need A Dollar is really damn good.  Shout out to Stones Throws, who put out some really cool shit.  Check out the official video for I Need A Dollar by Aloe Blacc.  You can bet I will be listening to more of his music this week.

In light of coming across a copy of Ghostface’s new album, Apollo Kids, which is sounding pretty dope, I figured I would take it back to the Supreme Clientele days with Ghost’s first video, Apollo Kids.  The wallabe factory was awesome.  I’m looking forward to listening to the new album all weekend.  Shout out to Ghost for keeping it consistent.

And for a bonus, CherChez LaGhost.  Happy Friday.

The Eminem Show

After a little hip hop discussion with my guy, Pete Sayke on Monday, I decided to listen to The Eminem Show and D-12′s Devil’s Night to jog my memory about how ill Eminem really is. It’s not like I need much of a reminder simply listening to his verse from American Psycho on D-12′s album but music always hits people differently at different time periods. The discussion came up about favorite albums, emcees, groups, etc of all time and of course Eminem’s name always comes up. Although, I am personally not a fan of Recovery, I respect the change and the message but I wanted to hear some old Em. Needless to say, I got what I needed. I wanted to see all the videos he released for this album too so, here they are.

 

And for a bonus, a little D-12.  RIP Proof

It has been a good year for my homie and League representer, Tona. He dropped his acclaimed album, Direct Deposit with Lyve. He has been getting a lot of love and wants to keep it going into the new year with a “new/old” joint that didn’t make the cut for Direct Deposit. Keep Talking featuring hip hop group, Tanya Morgan, who have also been having a great year. Listen to Keep Talking and download the DJ Pack below which includes the dirty and clean version and the instrumental. If case you forgot how sick Tona was, Check out Major, Fast Pace and Dial Tone.

It was another successful show at The Celtic Fox this year on Thanksgiving Eve.  We had over 125 people come out to support, drink and enjoy some festivities.  All the performers did very well.  Adullessence shut shit down for his first show in a while and of course, I did what I do.  My guy, Malachi was in the house capturing some video for Wheat City Magazine and got some great footage.  He just finished putting together some performance video of both myself and Adullessence rockin the Fox.  Shout out to Wheat City Magazine if you haven’t checked their site, definitely do that.  So, here is my most recent release, performance video from The Celtic Fox featuring Adullessence.  Enjoy.

Stay tuned for more updates about my new project, The Prize Package Volume 1, coming soon…….
