What's next? Sampling New Kids On The Block???

I haven't been impressed with Flo Rida's rapping skills since he started every party last year with 'Low'. But the man sure knows how to pick a catchy beat.

His new single, "Right Round", samples 80s classic "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)", from Dead or Alive. And it's catchy as hell.

I question his rapping skills - but I can't question his ability to pick a hit.

Poor man's graf

Tornts - Corrupt

More menace from Tornts' new album.

RZA ft. Kool G. Rap, Ghostface & Tash Mahogan - Whar

This track is off the RZA produced soundtrack of Afro Samurai Resurrection. I dig the soundtrack for season 1, it goes so well with hip hop.

Jay-Z - My President is Black Remix

Jay-Z - My President is Black

The delivery is far from mindblowing but the lyrics are pretty clever.

My President is black my Maybach too
And I’ll be goddamned if my diamonds ain’t blue
My money’s dark green and my Porsche is light grey
I’m headed for DC anybody feel me?
My president is black in fact he’s half white,
So even in a racist mind he’s half right
If you have a racist mind you'll be alright
My President is black but his house is all white
Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther could walk,
Martin Luther walked so Barak Obama could run,
Barrack Obama ran so all the children could fly,
So imma spread my wings you could meet me in the sky
I already got my own clothes, already got my own shoes,
I was hot before Barack imagine what I’m gonna do
Hello Ms. America, hey pretty lady
Red, white, and blue flag wave for me baby
Never thought I’d say this shit baby I’m good
You can keep ya puss,
I don’t want no more Bush
No more war, no more Iraq
No more white lies, my president is black

Bring Me the Head of Zilla Rocca

The Passion of the Weiss has an interview with Zilla Rocca. It covers the movie Bloodsport, things rappers cuddle and whether Zilla has ever been in space.


I meant to post this ages ago but if you haven't heard his mixtape Bring Me the Head of Zilla Rocca you should download it.

Here's a video (or photo montage) for one of the songs off the mixtape.

Ciecmate - Bird of Prey

This song sounds like insomnia and energy drinks. It's off Ciecmate's Preemptive Strike mixtape. Good luck if you can find it anywhere.

New MF Doom

I'd been wondering what MF Doom had been up to while he wasn't turning up to gigs. Working hard by the sound of it, this track is exciting.
