Madlib Medicine Show No. 1: Before the Verdict

The first of 1 album release every month-12 CD series from Madlib on his Label, Madlib Invazion. Madlib Medicine Show No. 1: Before The Verdict is a 17-track hip-hop album with "the OJ Simpson remixes" featuring Guilty Simpson. It's a prelude to Madlib & Guilty's collab OJ Simpson album. (If you click on OJ Simpson link, check the weirdo trying to review the album)

There are two brief guest appearances by MED and J Dilla.

If you didn't know Madlib (a producer from California) did an album with J Dilla (late great producer from Detroit) called "Champion Sound"

Half of the songs are produced by Madlib and feature J Dilla on vocals, and the other half are produced by J Dilla and feature Madlib on vocals. This album was the first of the Madlib duo collaboration albums made during the 2000s.

Here's a dope instrumental "The Official" from the Jaylib production duo off of that Champion Sound....

DMC working on the new ablum

DMC of the legendary group Run DMC is finishing up his new album "The Origins of Block Music" which will feature guests such as DJ Premier on the beats & Bumpy Knuckles and Chuck D of Public Enemy.

Look out for that album to hit stores sometime in June '09...

If you didn't catch the Rock N Roll hall of fame last night Run DMC was inducted into the hall by Eminem...He gave a great speach about the legendary group who brought Hip Hop and Rock together. Just 2 turntables and a M-I-C...

Run DMC spoke but did not perform because ever since the untimely loss of the late great Jam Master Jay they haven't performed without their DJ....Jay's mother, brother, wife and 3 kids were there to accept the award on his behalf...

Jam Master Jay was one of the first to show the world that without the DJ there really isn't no rapper or good performance...He also cared more about the people around him then worry'n about himself...R.I.P. Jam Master Jay

His legacy should never be forgotten...The best DJ to rock it

Guru - New Album

Guru of the legendary Gangstarr is working on a summer release of "8.0 Lost And Found".

This album will be the follow-up to 2007’s "Version 7.0: The Street Scriptures".

If you've been following Guru after his split with Premier about 5 or so years ago then you've heard Version 7.0 and you will be waiting for the JUNE release of the new album...

And don't sleep on Premiers replacement Solar...Although he is no PREMO he still has Guru making original hip hop...No matter who Guru would have as a producer he would still have many fans and many dope albums...

Be on the look out for that new GURU album this summer...

Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth Them Underground Basement Jams!!!

Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth have some left over tracks from their golden era...

Recordings from the EP, "All Souled Out", second release to the debut album, "Mecca & The Soul Brother", have been dug up and put together on a new five track EP.

The limited EP, which will release only 200 copies, is titled "Basement Demos". The price for this rare 80's hip hop history is not cheap either, as the collector’s item will set you back $80.00.

The track list is:

SIDE A:
01. "The Midnight Wrecka"
02. "Cool and Calm"

SIDE B:
01. "Go C.L."
02. "Down To Move Ya Body"
03. "Go With The Flow [Alternate Mix]"

Damn in this recession those prices are for those who are really big hip hop fans...if your lucky to get a copy of this release, do not put that shit out on the internet...keep that shit to yourself....Thats what I'm gonna do....

Premo in the works on producing MC Eiht & KRS-One Full Albums

DJ Premier the great producer in Hip Hop over the last 20 years is in talks of doing full album productions with rappers MC Eiht of Comptons Most Wanted. Also KRS-One & Premo are in the works on an album together stating the name of the album will be "Return Of The Boom Bips" .

Can't wait for both of these albums to come out and I hope they don't abandon these projects. MC Eiht and KRS-One are both great artists and are not givin the respect that they deserve for the amount of work they have put into hip hop.

Now this will be REAL HIP HOP...Thank you PREMO

Freeway...G-Unit & State Property Re-union

Freeway talked about how realistic it could be for him to join G-Unit records...He also stated that it could be possible for State Property to reunite and come out with an album, saying we all just have to put our pride to the side for the project to work....

On another note Freeway says "It's official, I got the album coming this summer,". The album will be called "The Stimulus Package" with Jake One a producer with Rhymesayers who after putting out "The White Van Music" has been generating more business....I can't wait for the album it's gonna be crazy. Their calling it The Stimulus Package 'cause their stimulatin' hip-hop.

Freeway states "We're bringing it back to the real hip-hop...It's gonna be crazy. One producer. One emcee. Y'all gonna love it, trust me man. We putting it together right now."

EARLY...

Outkast Problems w/Jive Records

Outkast's Big Boi has been frustrated with Jive records urgency to put out his highly anticipated and long awaited solo album...He and Andre have also been working on a collaboration album together and neither albums have had the support of the record company...

It makes me mad that Outkast who has been around for so long and always put out great albums has to deal with the bullshit record companies not putting the proper backing into their artists....

Hopefully we will see Big Boi &/Or Outkast's new albums released sometime this year....
