BLIND I SAYS GO! AUGUST 2010 • THE INTERLUDE

I really outdid myself with this one. This…..right here….is my…..most fluid, themed, consistent BISG compilation yet! August’s edition of Blind I Says GO! is giving love to the joints you love but forget to revisit….the Yin to the typical Yang of selections that jump out at us on out favorite records….yes that’s right, the INTERLUDE! When I came up with this concept I had a few special ones in mind that I’d always loved, but I had no idea I’d be able to pick 40 tracks that combined into an hour-long mindgasm of sonic delicacy. You like my wordplay I know you do. All the greats are here along for the ride too — 112, Little Brother, Hi-Tek, Usher, Talib Kweli, Sa-Ra, Brand New Funk, Justin Timberlake, Sonnymoon, I, CED, Common, Bilal, The Neptunes, N.E.R.D., Group Home, Outkast, SWV, Dwele, Drake, Missy Elliott, Kelis, Timbaland & Magoo, John Legend, Mayer Hawthorne, Yesterday’s New Quintet, Erykah Badu, Diddy, B.I.G., Madlib, Jay-Z, Janelle Monaé, Jake One, Dilla, Gang Starr, Dimlite, Dert, Constrobuz, Beat Maker Beat, Sol+10….I mean C’MON SON! You already know what you need to do.

NO KNOWS DOPE | JULY 20X

Half way through the year & so far we have had NKD’s on some str8 up heat to kick start it all, then Dilla, then Beats, then Love , then Stereolab & last month was all about the P. This months theme is dedicated to my favorite artist of ALL TIME! STEVIE!!! Y’all don’t even know or can begin to understand the love that have for Mr.Wonder. I mean, to the point where I had to do not one but TWO NKD’s for y’all! Fiddy (that’s 50) songs & I will tell you right now before u even get to the jump that I went on som Mai Mai schitt by selecting ONLY MY favorite Stevie songs of all time. There are obvious ones I left off purposely & some of em I wanted to put on this round, but I will save those for the 3rd installment to round up the TRILL O.G. somewhere later on down the Blind I road, but for now… enjoy the wonder of the man, the myth, the living legend… STEVIE!
