R.I.P. MICHAEL JACKSON

I'm still in shock

STUDIO SESSION

As we're laying down the final touches on the new album "Integritty", I had my djay, LD Technicali, work on some scratches and cuts to line everything up perfectly. M.C. Reppond came thru to twist an L and oversee the process giving hints on the Verbal Threat album about to get started as well. Just a quick glimpse into the lives of some real dudes doing real hip-hop properly..staying true to the format and the streets.

MOS DEF DROPS SOME KNOWLEDGE!!

Now you've heard me on similar topics discussing the state of hip-hop and some accountability. In 2009, there is none! You can basically do what you want with no repercussions...that means, claim you are the beat rapper, diss legends in the game with no problem, do a nursery rhyme sing along rap that will top the charts..etc...

Well, in this interview, Mos Def addresses the topic of people giving certain rappers the title as the greatest rapper alive. I completely cosign what money says. I think it's about time more mc's in the game speak up on topics like this and get things back to how they should be. We used to have respect people! Listen and learn.

OLD BLACK BOOK PIECE (COMPLEX)

I came across one of my comrads photo albums online of some pieces we did over the years and bugged out when I found this. This was some old blackbook piece I did and totally forgot about it. Luckily for me, ZONE WST tooka flick of it and kept it in the archives. Big shout out to Wild Style Technicians the graffiti crew/clothing line. wildstyletechnicians.com some real dudes that keep this shit respectable. Yo the summers here yall!

Auto -Tune debate

My views on the game are still very dated unfortunately compared to today's standards. So you'd obviously know my stance when it comes to this whole Auto-tune debate. Personally I thought Jay-Z doing a single Death Of Autotune was genius. It not only shows that he still controls the game in a big way, but also the fact that he has respect still for hip-hop as a whole. a lot of the newer cats are complaining now, "Ohh Jay is taking food out of rappers mouths by that song..and let these young dudes eat etc etc"
Shit gets old man..That's the problem with what's going on right now. Everybody in rap music wants to be a movie star and instead of raising the bar and doing some next shit, er-body wants to copy the next man's shit that's currently hot. Still to this day I can't fully figure out why the rappers/groups that stayed true to hip-hop are always the ones with the least record sales and notoriety. It's really out of control whats going on right now from the lack of talent in today's music..to the payola that keeps these wack rappers music on major radio/video..and nothing seems to change. In the good ol' days you had real mc's stepping up and ending careers when things needed to go down. KRS-1 and Pm Dawn for example..with Kris literally throwing homeboy off the stage saying your wack..dude was never able to recover and career ended immediately. Nowadays if that same scenario was to happen..the industry would turn things the opposite way..and label KRS a "hater" with Pm Dawn been the victor.
It's a sad scene all the way around. It's been over a decade now with pretty pathetic rap music dominating the whole genre with people having the nerve to do write ups claiming some of the new generation to be labeled as the best rapper alive etc...There's no accountability! There's no repercussions! right now it's open season to do anything and say what ever you want. It's the mighty dollar that runs this game.
so in closing..I send out a BIG thank you to Jay-Z for putting the hit out on Auto-tune for which I hope it dies a violent death never to return. do the game a favor and step your music up!

Just my 2 cents..
-Easy
