Hip Hop Hamsters
It pains me to post this, simply because you know in some stuffy boardroom somewhere big wigs "brainstormed" about how to make a Kia advert go viral.
Well, hats off Kia [you fucks] for making a dope advert. Putting Black Sheep as the sound track to any advert would get my attention but then add some choice shots of NY and some admittedly pretty smooth CGI Hip Hop hamsters and I'm sold. Still wouldn't buy one though.
Bastards...

Big Boi - Shutterbugg
I can't front - I didn't think I was going to feel this at all... But lone behold - I dig it.
A funky concept the ATLien is doing something different - and I like it.
Catchy...
Stevie Williams - DGK
Stevie is sick. Definitely one of my favorite skaters off all time. He's just got such a smooth style and plenty of pop.
I even had his signature deck, from Chocolate skateboards. That too was a fave until it got run over by a car. Gutted.
Shouts to Jefe for this one.
Slim & Shady
Fiddy's gone all Christian Bale on us for some wack ass film he's going to be attempting to act in.In the words of RorKid - "See ya!"
Did some one say "Crack"?
Mike Giant
Mike Giant @ Mediamatic Timelapse from CFYE .com on Vimeo.
Has got a steady hand and a sick style.
Skillz...

Pro' - Wolf Among Sheeps
Keeping with the sheep theme [purely coincidental] my man Prozak hit me up with some new tracks of his.
Repping Moss Side, Manchester, UK - Pro comes with some slick delivery over some Vengeance Crew productions along with some freestyles. Merging Grime and Hip Hop with some Manny swag.
Bump it...
Big up the Vengeance Fam!
Skitz ft Taskforce - Rainy Day Science
It's been a long time since Skitz dropped the UK classic Countryman which got some major spins from me and crew. Here are Taskforce lacing a sick beat with some deep lyrics.
I know my man Jefe is going to dig this...
BIG...
RorK!D - Shepherd In Sheep's Clothing
My man RorKid has just released the street video for Shepherd in Sheep's Clothing featuring the production skills of the homie J. Lawson.
It's MT - 1 For The Heads family business!
Big up.
Keep your eyes peeled for more vids coming soon.

Doo Wop & TONY - We Got Guns [Solar Diss]
It was only a matter of time before this kind of thing came out. Solar has upset a lot of people with his shady affairs in the whole Guru story.Doo Wop and TONY go hard on him on this one...
"As Guru’s once former publicist [Dennis Paredes], I send this email with pleasure and a deeper sentiment that can only be explained by the grinding of my teeth every time I think of the entire situation. Doo Wop is accompanied by T.O.N.Y. from Minneapolis on this very personal song, allowing Doo Wop to express another side of him that is rarely shown. I attest to the first few bars Doo Wop rhymes (shown after the jump)."
Rass... Listen/Download it HERE.

Cancerous
LoveDrips.com got some coverage on All City Blog and in turn so did the MT handstyler - Cancer.Big ups...
Guilty Pleasure
Say whut?! Chris "Slappaho" Brown and Tyga "Young Money Tattoo-Doodle Wasteman" on That's Exage. I know, I know...
I am top "hater" of both of these cats... and that's why it pains me so much to rinse this tune. May be it's the sun outside or may be I've just lost my mind, but this kind of fly...
The track's called G-Shit - but let's face it's more Baby G than OG.
Damn...
[Hangs head in shame... then Diddy-bops]

Straight Biting
Tinie Tempah - Pass Out on muzu.tv
The bite...
Jacking beats is one thing but actually ripping next mans verses and trying to pass them off as your own - get the fuck outta here!
This is straight biting. Chiddy Bang?! C'mon man... You know that's not how people get down in Hip Hop. Piggybacking off next mans hit single [and making it worse]. So wack.
This vexes me so much...
Phil Ade
Phil Ade "Always There" from Okayplayer on Vimeo.
I'm still not sure about this cat. The video and track is good but the mixtape is a bit hit and miss.
To be honest, a lot of these new school cats all sound very similar. I think most people would be hard pushed to tell the difference between Phil Ade, Theophilus London, Wale, Charles Hamilton... the list goes on. That's not to say they're not good - but it's all just a bit samey.

Oddisee - Odd Spring
Odd Spring is the fourth & final installment in Oddisee's season themed series. Just as Odd Summer, Autumn &, Winter, Odd Spring will be the theme music to it's season.
The one called Oddisee does it again. The Washington native can do no wrong when it comes to crafting beats in my opinion - and his rhymes are tight to.
It's free to download and blast on your system too.
Brilliant...

I'm feeling this...
CNN ft. Raekwon - The Reserves
Some ill visuals for a new track from Capone n Noreaga, with some back up from the Wu don Rae.
Keeping it on some tug ish...

Nike Air Max 90 INFRARED
THE all time classic AM90 colour way will be dropping again in '010. Oh yes.Should be out around August time, if reports are true.
In the immortal words of NaS - "I'm a Nike head" and these creps get me hype.
Ill...
Quality > Quantity
A pretty sick [freely downloadable] compilation album. I can't say I'm a fan of every track but it's certainly a bit different and makes for a nice listen.
Marco Polo & Ruste Juxx - Nobody
We all know Marco Polo [as well as looking like my man Vix] can cook up a sick beat. Here's some visuals to a track taken MP and Juxx's latest album The Execution.
Sick as you like...
BONUS - and if that wasn't enough you can download Ruste Juxx & MP ft Sean Price - Fuckin' With A Gangster - HERE. Fo' free.

Adidas Skateboarding Hits LDN
Dope.
Don't see why they felt they had to include Chelsea in the whole affair but fuck it...

Reebok Advert
Damn, Reebok killed it on this one. Can you believe Helena Christensen is 41?!Damn, she'd get it.
Shit sneaks though...
Wednesday 5 May 2010
Gourmet - Quadici
Gourmet keep their footwear game on point. If there's one thing that gets to me it's not being able to rock my flyest sneaks due to wack weather conditions. However these seem to be a nice solution - perfect for the wet streets of northern Europe. Having lived in Brussels and Manchester, these would have been a useful pair of kicks to have. It's like an airmaxed timbo.They've been out a while but now Gourmet has just release these Napa Leather bad boys.
Must say the air bubble does spoil it for me... combined with the price tag - I couldn't bring my self to cop a pair.
Worth a post though.

Homeboy Sandman ft. PackFM - Bonkers
I'm a fan of Homeboy. His ish is different, fresh and his flow in bananas.Listen/Download a track that didn't make the cut for his album The Good Sun [out 1st June] HERE!
Dope...
DJ K.O. - Living Out A State Of Mind vol. VI
A very nice FreeP... Some slick beats and dope lyrics. Plus you can download this ish for free.
Monday 3 May 2010
Shyheim ft. Castro - The Dust Juice
Shyheim "The Man Child" seems to be all grown up and doing things his ma-dukes probably wouldn't be too proud of.
Things sure have changed since '94! His rhymes used to be pretty conscious, seems like now that's something his mind slips in and out of.
Still it's kind of dope. Dark vibes...
I'm sure I've seen that chick lurking around Manchester...
My hand's Abu Hamza...
... it writes off the hook!Meany is just too sick. Still relatively unknown even in his hometown of Manchester [UK] the illest member of the Urban Knights should be dropping his first solo mixtape sometime soon.
