New Music: Señor Kaos Works With M Slago On “Attack The Wack” Project

Attack-The-Wack-Front-Cover.jpg

I first met the homie M Slago in Austin during SXSW 2010. Later that year I heard the track (Table Cloth) he produced on Homeboy Sandman’s album “The Good Sun” and knew he was definitely someone I wanted to work with.

A year and some chance later thru Facebook we got the chance to link on a project he was finishing up called “Attack The Wack.” Anybody that knows me, knows I’m all about putting wack rappers, ideas, and people out of commission so I was ALL in. The beat is absolutely amazing and just what I needed to pen something over. I recorded this song just a couple days after getting the beat, sent it back and made it in time for the project.

This marks the first time me and M Slago have worked together but it definitely won’t be the last. His new project “Attack The Wack” was released in conjunction with ProducersIKnow.com and is available for a free download.

Also in addition to myself, Homeboy Sandman, Headkrack, Playdough, Random, Myk Dyaleks, Jabee P.H.I.L.T.H.Y. & Kyle Rapps are featured on the project. DON’T SLEEP!

Video: Lupe Fiasco – “Double Burger With Cheese”

Caught this video the other day, the song is dope, but the video makes it even CRAZIER!

early 90′s movies were the best. Boyz In The Hood, Dead Presidents, South Central, Poetic Justice, Juice, Menace II Society, New Jack City, were ALL and still are Classics! “Do you remember these.. Double Burger With Cheese!” … Oh and I forgot Colors and New Jersey Drive, and surprised I didn’t see any Above The Rim clips in here. This is back when the movies were fresh, but they also had Jammin soundtracks that were promoted like albums.

This song is featured on Lupe’s new project “Friend Of The People” which dropped on Thanksgiving. Check it out if you haven’t yet.

Video: ClanThuzullah – “Me And The Clan”

If I had to take a wild guess I would say… Beats by DT & Amdex (Clan Destined) and rhymes by Methuzullah. Clan D & Methuzullah = ClanThuzullah. Looks like the homies have been cooking up a new project. Check out this promo video that surfaced a few days ago via Rick Foy DVID Films. Record is called “Me And The Clan.”

The single features Chaundon (Hall of Justus), Senor Kaos (Ultra Beast) and Atlanta’s Skinny-C with the production from Maseed Productions and is just a taste of the quality we can expect from the compilation.

Video: MF Doom Interviewed By Chairman Mao At Red Bull Music Academy (Madrid 2011)

I’m SUPER late with posting this video as it dropped at the beginning of November. At a hour a half in length, I watched the interview, then I think I fell asleep and never got a chance to go back and post this. DOOM sits down with Chairman Mao at the 2011 Red Bull Music Academy session in Madrid, Spain.

I worked as a rep for the Red Bull Music Academy this year, and was excited to hear an artist (Slide20XL) from my area was going to be attending the Academy this year for the first time in about 5 years. It’s truly an experience and you never know who you will see or bump into… Anyway enough typing, if you got some time to spare check this out.

First Listen: Stream The Roots’ New Album “Undun” Today

On December 6th The Legendary Roots Crew release their 10th studio album entitled “Undun” via Def Jam. As a treat, you can stream the whole album today via NPR. After one full listen, I can say The Roots still have that organix sound that leaves you wanting more. Things are not showing any signs of falling apart for the crew who have mastered the game theory of releasing LP’s. This new album could be a tipping point for the crew as they come live with fresh sounds for the brains phrenology. Releasing albums consistently since the mid 90′s it seems as if I’ve been rocking with Illadelf’s finest for half my life.

Salute to The Roots for achieving success over all these years while still making music on their own terms and testing the bounds of their creativity.
