KJ – THE HEADPHONE

KJ said it best for all of you new artists trying to get your shit heard: “I want the maximum amount of people to hear it and when the time comes to purchase they will have the choice but the most important thing is the music.” Word up. The Headphone is KJ’s latest project, which he’ll only have available for free download for 30 days. That gives you just enough time to cop this and see wh I hope 2010 is a big year for KJ. Check out “Check Up” and then partake in some new shit you’ll surely enjoy.

PANTYRAID – THE SAUCE

Even with a suggestive name like Pantyraid the duo of Ooah (Glitch Mob) and MartyParty are anything but delinquent as their beats and songs are quite mature.

Peep game on this one track, “Beba” off their album The Sauce and see if you’re feeling what I’m feeling.

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

EDISON – MUSIC MADE WITH BUTTONS 2.0 – LIVE ON THE MONOME

Man these monome things still boggle my mind. I understand the instrument itself – however, how can you remember what’s on each button? Shit, I can barely remember whats on the 16 pads of the MPC! Edison makes it look incredibly easy, as this video was made in one take with the audio fed directly into the camera. Quite amazing. Edison was recently signed to Egadz’ Kid Without Radio Record Label, and has a new album coming out on December 22nd. You can check out more info on Edison here or pre-purchase an advanced copy of his album here.

BIG BOI – SHINE BLOCKAS (FEAT. GUCCI MANE)

Here’s another new joint from Big Boi’s new project The Son Of Chico Dusty, featuring Gucci Mane. Man, I swear for all the elitist ass shit we put up here at Blind I, Gucci Mane finds a way to sneak in & get posted everywhere. This joint + Fo Yo Sorrows = a definite purchase of Big Boi’s new project when it drops for me. Partake!
