This man is currently one of the best, yet one of the most underrated beatsmiths doing it. He dropped an amazingly dope album White Van Music last year on Rhymesayers Entertainment and has an upcoming album in the works with Freeway (that shit is gonna knock!!!!!). He has the great ability to produce for all types [...]

Didn’t know what to expect upon taking in my very first live “country music” show over the weekend. Especially once the Hispanic bouncer at the door asked if I was packing any knives as he patted me down.

As the music business crumbles around the ancient ideals of rich white men, musicians are still creating. The music is still being heard. It’s still being performed. It’s still being passed along from friend to friend. So as the rich white men scramble to stay afloat in this digital age, [...]

THE DELFONICS – “Ready Or Not Here I Come (Can’t Hide From Love)”

The Delfonics – Ready Or Not Here I Come (Can’t Hide From Love)

Let’s assume everyone is familiar with the 1996 version made famous by the Fugees. The fact that Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean and Pras did it better on “Ready Or Not” doesn’t [...]

Saturday’s Graffiti Bus Jam at Orlando Brewing wasn’t quite the rousing success it should have been – if judging merely by attendance figures. But it was a great time nonetheless for those of us that did make it out. Disappointing though that the local hip-hop community didn’t show up to take part in the [...]

Back in the day, when MTV and other “music video channels” actually played music videos for music fans this platform was what helped connect it all together. It also introduced new sounds to a new audience. And as was expressed in KEEPING CAMERA ROLLING [...]
