A Lil Something You May want to Check Out: Broken Bells

I've always been a Danger Mouse Fan. Long Before the Infamous Jay-Z/Beatles Grey Album fiasco(which I honestly didn't think was that good to begin with) I was bumping "What You Sittin' On" off his project he did with an emcee by the name of Jemini that still bumps to this day(If you haven't heard it yet, well, read my page title). Anyway, from his work with Cee-Lo(Gnarles Barkley) to the joints he has done with Gorillaz and DOOM, he is definitely an artist worth checking out. Anyway, his latest work isn't necessarily a hip-hop production, but it is still dope, nonetheless(Open your mind people!) This new release with Shins Guitarist James Mercer(another group he has worked with), self titled Broken Bells is definitely worthy of praise. Check it out if ya got the time, in the meantime, here goes a little taste:

You Are Sleeping: The Symphony Pt 1: A Dedication to Posse Cuts

This is a 2 part show dedicated to my favorite Posse Cuts. I've always been a fan of the Posse Joint on records. There was a time when the Posse joint would almost always be one if not the best track on the album. Simply put, these Cuts would give rappers that extra nudge in terms of motivation to go in on a track and black out. Nobody wants to be the cat on the Posse Cut with the weak verse. Rediculous arguments have broken out between me and my boys over numerous tracks and who had the craziest verse. I remember reading the tracklistings on tracks and getting rediculously amped when I would read about one of my favorite rappers getting on a track with another favorite of mine. There was no greater feeling then the anticipation of listening to your favorite emcee go in on a track. And if they owned the track, that was bragging rights for days, Hell Years. Anyway, here goes a plethora of dope posse cuts for your listening ears! Enjoy, and Tune in Sunday for Pt 2.

FLy GYpsy

I first heard of these guys while I was in Honduras. I felt my ears perk up a bit when I read the review about "A Jamaican Emcee and a Russian Producer", and I thought to myself, hmmm, that's interesting. Well, 4mos Later, they have a committed fan on their hands. I love 'em, and nothing anyone can say or do is gonna change that. Do your thing fellas, I see ya.
