Man!  Drake is a beast.  There is no way of denying his music.  Out of this world (picture pun!).

JAY SMOOTH!


A few days ago I said that I didn't care for lyrics, I lied.  Nothing is more satisfying when a rapper does a beat justice.  There is a reason people view Jay Electronica as the second coming of Christ because we have been void of lyrics for so long.  Rappers have become producers in the sense that they worry about the feeling/vibe of the song rather than the content.

BTW, Jay Smooth should do panels or something.

ILL-LITERACY | "DOYOUDONOTSEE?"

Posted: Tuesday, March 2, 2010 | | Labels: , , 0 comments


My folks at Ill-Lit and Blind I For the Kids have created a new method for collaboration.  They present us, "Doyoudonotsee?".  Now, instead of bored people like me remixing songs after they are done, proactive people can put their spin on music before it's ever finished.       


For you producers, musicians, remixers, mashers, etc, download the stems & acapella and have fun:

From the Drizzeltron himself:

"IT’S FINALLY HERE!!  I am please to present to you Doyoudonotsee?, a collaborative music project.  What does that mean?  It means that our song is still in its development stage, but we’ve opened it up to the public so that YOU can add on!  So if you’re a bassist, guitarist, vocalist, or listener, we’d love for you to spend the next week with us figuring out how to make this track phenomenal.  Are you ready?  Check it out:


DU BOIS QUOTE OF THE DAY #12


"The power of the ballot we need in sheer self-defence,--else what shall save us from a second slavery?"

I'M LATE BUT THIS IS DOPE



Sonnymoon - Golden Age.  Saw this on ill-lit's blog months ago and my boy Wes just sent it to me and I finally listened to this greatness.  Download and chill out to this.

...PAPER CUTS... + SLOW DOWN VIDEO


Bambu has another project out and I got a track on it!  Paper Cuts is an 8 song EP where he tackles issues of people of color being short changed by the system, i.e. budget cuts, gentrification, unemployment, etc.  Below is the preimere of his new video, Slow Down featuring Prometheus Brown.  Be sure to support Bam and me buy getting a copy.  Bam only gets better and eventually he and I will put out a project together so stay tuned.
