BLIND I SAYS GO! APRIL 2011

Upgrades Upgrades Upgrades! They say if you want something done, do it yourself. I’ve wanted to format the Blind I Says GO! experience into a mixed format for awhile, and with a little help from Serato ScratchLive I was able to make my dream a reality! I’m one of those see-it-once-and-I-can-do-it type people, what can I say. So I decided to go the extra mile this month for GO! and put together TWO variations: one mixed hour-long session that you can press play on and let rock all the way through for your parties, gatherings, etc…..and a traditional Blind I comp with all the tracks ready for your enjoyment upon deployment. This month’s edition is stellar, featuring tracks from Max B, Boldy James, Nez And Rio, Common, Dom Kennedy, Shad and Skratch Bastid, Sir Michael Rocks, Pusha T, Pharrell, 50 Cent, Elzhi, Natasha Ramos, Vic Spencer, Action Bronson, Daft Punk, Raphael Saadiq, Yukimi Nagano, Big K.R.I.T., The Weeknd, The Stepkids, Travis Barker, Lupe Fiasco, Frank Ocean, Rich Boy, and Trae The Truth. Check out the Mixcloud of my BISG April 2011 mix and then hit the jump for the track listing and download links to both versions! GO!

Grimey – The Final Chapter. That’s right folks, when Mai & I set out to do these compilations, we had it set in mind that each collabo/comp we did would only hit 3 volumes & then we’d be on to the next one..on-on to the next one (besides y’all slept on vol.2). So this is our 3rd & final opus in the Grimey series, we will mos def come back next year with some OTHER theme, but until then put the razor blade under your tongue & stomp on the streets in your Timbo’s 1 mo’ ‘gain!

Kanye & Common Freestyle (2005)

Yeah, it’s that serious. A few days ago, I took my quest to find the elusive All About The Bad Boys track to Twitter in efforts to try and find it for my catalogue and the world’s pleasure. I was directed to Mr. Mike Love, who was one-half of the Bad Boys on WGCI during their heyday,and he threw me the oop of all oops with the record. I, being the gentleman that I am, threw it to my homie Andrew over at FSD and let him run wild with it. A few days later, Mike hits me with THIS gem. Ridiculous collection of freestyles recorded on the radio show from artists like Common, Crucial Conflict, Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz, Fat Joe & Big Pun, Flipmode Squad, Twista, Juvenile, Brand Nubian, Outkast, Juice, Profound, Q-Tip, Da Brat, Shyne, 50 Cent, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, and the list goes on. Basically it’s classic material and a must to have on your computer if you love hip-hop music in any sense. I should really start charging for connectin the dots like this, I’m a motherfuckin music blog wordsmith motherfucking lyrical genius! Mr Mike Love has some more to say on the topic after the jump, along with a link to download The Best Of Bad Boy Radio Freestyles. Don’t act like I never gave you nothing, internet!

CELEBRITIES AND TECHNOLOGY YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT

Isn’t it interesting that Hammer had started his own website that acts as an online encyclopedia for dancing. DanceJam.com.  Did you also know that Will Farrell is a co-founder of www.funnyordie.com.  It seems that with the advent of rappers to actors and actors to rappers, being into some type of technology is the next best thing. Being that I sit in the middle of the silly-con valley and am up on all that technology type stuff. I thought maybe it would be interesting to bust out a few more celebrities that have tried the website startup thing. From 50 cent to Ashton Kutcher lets see who really knows wassup…
