Wordspit- The Coolest BBOI Stance Album
I'm not gonna front, after the first two joints that leaked over the last two weeks, I didn't know what to expect from this (free) album. I had the pleasure of listening to the album in it's entirety at the listening session last Thursday at the almighty PNC Radio/Studios and I was very impressed at what I heard. Now that "The Coolest BBOI Stance" is finally out, I can honestly say, Job Well Done. I'm not gonna do a review but I highly suggest you cop download this dope album from this East New York young gunner (II). Tracklisting and back cover after the jump.

Nah Right Radio
Just under two weeks ago at the BYOB BBQ, I had the pleasure of meeting the homie Eskay from Nahright. It was then that I romanticized (||) how crazy it would be if Eskay did a show over here at PNC Radio. Now honestly, I knew even approaching the homie about this would be somewhat of a longshot considering how unaccessible he is. Nonetheless, fast forward to last night, Nah Right Radio became a reality (let's keep it going). Big shout out to Eskay, Dallas Penn, Combat Jack, Marvelous Mo & the big homie Drewpreme. Peep parts 1-5, CLASSIC!

DJ Premier - R.I.P. Michael Jackson Tribute Mix
Long Live The King
I was trying to stay away from doing an obligatory post about King Michael Jackson as I'm still in shock as to his "untimely" (who decides when it's time?) passing. Beside the fact that I haven't posted anything in a few months (extremely busy), I felt it was necessary to acknowledge an artist that I, like many of you, grew up listening to directly or indirectly. Whether it was on the weekends while mom and dad were doing house chores or pops taking me for a visit to see my cousins, there was always a constant of Jackson 5 or James Brown being played in the Cutlass Supreme. Good times. Of course as a shorty vibing to these classic tunes, I was too young to fully appreciate the artistic value of this kind of music that was inspiring, heartfelt and to many, live changing. And I think that's why this situation does not sit well with many.
Since King Jackson's passing, I've seen desperate attempts to nullify and to some degree chastise his existence and relevancy with unnecessary banter (see NYPost still referring to him as wacko jacko). Totally distasteful. I mean given the nature of who he is we all will be subjected to rumors, speculation and other blah blah. But we must respect and honor his legacy and contributions that was made during his time here. Long Live King Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009).

Here's some footage from the homie Sumit from The Hip Hop Chronicle who was in NY recently. Big shout out to Sumit. More THHC footage on the way.
RIP J-Dilla 2/7/74 - 2/10/06
There's a certain mystique about J Dilla's talent which we all gravitate towards. It's still hurts to know that someone who inspired me as well as many others with his music is no longer here with us. I remember reading ATCQ album credits (does anyone do that anymore?), and I used to wonder who was "The Ummah". Only to find out that J Dilla was 1/3 of a production trio (Q-Tip & Ali Shaheed Muhammad). J Dill we miss you bro.
