J.Rocc In Japan 2009



Jrocc is definitely one of my most favourite DJ's on the planet. Beat Junkies is the crew and Jrocc is the funky president.

DJ Babu & Stevie Wonder!!

Rest In Peace - Baatin

Slum Village performing at Rock the Bells - Aug 1st. Baatin (R.I.P) from The Freshest on Vimeo.


On my journey I read this inspirational piece which I felt was fitting to begin understanding the man.
His name itself is even significant.

Baatin: Literally, this means “concealed.” In practice, this refers to the idea that the real sense of the Holy Scripture is hidden beneath the literal meaning of the words. It is only accessible to those who are adept at reasoning and thinking. A person who devotes himself to studying such hidden meanings can be called a batini.

Kayne West - Paranoid


This was my stand out track on the album 808's & HeartBreaks, my girl was a pissed at me because it was repeat for about a week when i previewed it, one of my sing-a-longs as it as catchy as f%*K. It's the hook, it's banging. Funny enough the female lead in the video is making Chris Brown a little paranoid as the rumour mill has placed her with Kayne or Drake!!
Enjoy

Raekwon & Ghostface interview on RapCity!

Remember those days when only a few heads had cable and would record Yo Raps, Rapcity and make video mixtapes with bits missing or chopped in the most random places, Classic video editing. My boy Mistryman used to be the don at this he had some mad system where he would produce seamless compilations with the whole song not a beat missed and all index. Kid was ill big up Mistryman.
This is still relevant now which shows how knowledgeable and the foresight of the Wu-Tang Clan and it's members.

Talib Kweli - Blacksmith MCEO

Am I late or early not sure? But whenever flicking though a few webpages I always check to see what are the latest ventures this brother is embarking upon. I would say 9 time out of 10 if I address the culture [Hip-Hop] to any body and they refer to [pause ?] a more commercial or more mainstream artists and so education is required to clarify what the realness is. This name is always the first to mind.....
Talib Kweli (born Talib Kweli Greene, 1975) is a rapper from Brooklyn, New York. He is one of the most prominent rappers in underground hip-hop, and is critically acclaimed frequently, despite not being incredibly commercially successful. His name is Arabic, meaning ‘the seeker’ or ‘student of truth and knowledge

The realness.
