This is my ode to the first hit hip hop song (no matter how corny it was to the REAL hip hoppers of the time). yes, writing the lyrics were tedious, but at least it wasn't "In A Gadda Da Vida."
here is my second installment in my Jazz Classics series. this is a track by the great free jazz saxophonist Ornette Coleman and his band. much of his music is hard to just sit and listen to, but this song is great for any occasion if you can get into it. he is still alive today and has in fact recently released a new album. enjoy.
i noticed this track wasn't posted yet so i decided to post it. it's a simple video because the song is what you should focus on. enjoy. listen to the story behind it.
this is for the rappers out there giving hip hop a bad name. the ones using misogyny, violence, materialism, and ignorance to sell records and then using their money to purchase useless things. these idiot celebrities show off their giant houses on MTV Cribs, then you flip to CNN and the people devastated in the Katrina Disaster still can't afford to live.
I actually made 2 videos of this song by accident because my computer wasnt letting me save the first one. the second one is going to be posted as a reply to this one so wait for the second to decide which you want favorite (if you are favoriting it). by the way, cjcookie, you asked for it, you got it.
off of Jeru's 1995 album, Wrath Of The Math. This song is even more relevant today than it was in 95. this is a story by Jeru about the day hip hop was abducted by the idiots on the mainstream.
off of Jeru's 1996 album, Wrath Of The Math. This song is even more relevant today than it was in 96. this is dedicated to the rappers out there making bullshit for bucks. enjoy.
i've decided to post some of my favorite songs in miscellaneous genres. at the beginning i will find a potential sample and repeat it a few times for you producers out there. enjoy.

this is a list of producers still holding it down post-J Dilla production era. some names that should've made honorable mention that i forgot include Camu Tao (RIP), 9th Wonder (although he's kind of slacking to me), Sixtoo, and Insight. there are probably plenty more i am still forgetting too. thanks for watching.
Some real hip hop from the underground. these guys are trying to get signed. it will only happen with your help though so everyone needs to buy this album. they are the Linguistics and the album is called "Writes of Passage." go to www.cdbaby.com to purchase this cd (for a good price i might add).
