If I May Recommend… The Stuyvesants

DOWNLOAD HERE

I’m on a beat LP kick lately and came across this on Bloggerhouse. After seeing the dope cover art around the net for a few weeks, I pulled the trigger and thought “what the hell.”

As the story apparently goes, these two producers live in Bed-Stuy (hey neighbors!) and sampled exclusively 70’s records [...]

How to Cover a Song, (Aloe Blacc is THAT Good, huh?)

I like cover songs, so long as the covering artist puts a personal flair on the original. If I wanted to listen to someone do the same thing as the original artist, I’d listen to the original artist. That’s why I was pretty happy to stumble across Aloe Blacc’s version of “Billie Jean.”

This all [...]

Cross Roads-Eddie Pages

Another Short by the man Eddie Pages, staring Jahmel Reynolds and Brandon Dottin(ME). We filmed this one a little over a month ago. I like the way it came out Aka I like that Jahmel gets hit by a car. My only slight criticism would be the voices, if there were multiple people playing the [...]

Did you know there's a new Gorillaz video? With Mos Def?

Well now you do. I love these guys. I remember being in middle school when their first album dropped in America, and the song “Clint Eastwood” and the video absolutely hooked me. This was when MTV2 was just getting started and they were actually showing videos all day long.

This new track “Stylo” premiered [...]

Reflection Eternal ft. Jay Electronica, J. Cole & Mos Def – Just Begun

There’s nothin’ like a buncha MC’s who can take a simple beat and murder it. Like, I dare you to try and do what these dudes did. This is the type of song that makes us work that much harder.

Also, J.Cole is going to get a nickname if he keeps murdering people on their own [...]
