Mayoral fave, Azad Right is at it again with this dope track featuring Luna Angel and produced by Professor O. It’s no secret that I dig Azad’s sound. It’s genuine and endearing and makes the listener feel like they’re not getting some gimmicky upstart. Dig it.

OK. So, I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted Theo London. The reason for that is the Boston crowd was dissed by him claiming to be sick and skipping a show in Boston but then posting pictures of himself crowd surfing. This is a major neesh neesh (wags fingers). If his bullshit excuse was true, then I’d think he’d do a make up show asap (no pun). Anyhow, not one to hold a grudge, I’m letting this go. But you better do one hell of a great show next time around homie. Enjoy this cool cover/remix.

by Gotye Vs Biggie (Scott Melker Remix)
Biggie vs Gotye? Can’t really go wrong with this winning combination… Our boy, Scott Melker kills it once again with this ridiculous “Popped and Screwed Remix”. It is freaking great. In Scott’s words:
Somebody That I Used To Know vs Dead Wrong - Biggie vs Gotye - Scott Melker Popped and Screwed Remix - Click to Download
Everyone has remixed Gotye. But nobody has done it like this. “Somebody That I Used To Know is a song about being pissed off at a woman.” Dead Wrong is similar, but far more aggressive. I think Gotye needs to be more aggressive. I went ahead and helped him out.
This is the second “Popped and Screwed” track in existence, and is a preview of an upcoming “Popped and Screwed” EP by myself and Friendly Greg. I took Gotye, sped him up to sound more womanly, dropped Biggie in, and added an extra Paul Wall beat for good measure. There are also some self-produced elements.
So there it is. Enjoy.

Wednesday, @questlove was wilin’ out on twitter about finding a video from their first ever show as “The Roots”. On stage are the original band members: Black Thought and Malik B on vocals, Questlove on drums, Leonard Hubbard on bass,and Scott Storch on keyboards.
Here’s what Questo had to say on Okayplayer.com:
History haahahahaha. i remember this show well. those who have Do You Want More/Things Fall Apart will recognize the “you are all about to witness….” intro (always had audio, never seen video) the mc of the show was my (not then yet) co manager Joe Young (aka AJ Shine) who at the time was philly’s Bobbito to Cosmic Kev’s Stretch Armstrong. he used some bus accident money to record our Organix album. he also introduced us to his business partner and cameraman Richard Jeremy Nichols. a man to whom i still hold high value and is my manager to this day. (Rich HATED us back then and thought we were corny but figured the smoke and mirrors of it all could manage to fool some people lol)
guest of the group and Tariq’s buddy from Millersville U Malik B brought along a pal to this show. his name was Jamaladeen Tacuma (jazz bassist and cousin to YZ) after this performance Jamal will offer us a chance to tour with him in june for one date in germany some 7 months from now (i think this is december ’92) we somehow manage to hype up that 2-show 2-encore performance into a hype machine that started a 5-label war and ended with us going to Geffen records at 1755 Broadway. its 20 years 15 albums and several members later. im proud to say i never gave up my dream. we sat in the lunchroom thinking about doing concerts and impressing girls and having “date money and a trizzy” (philly knows whats up) this was the beginning of that journey.

I had to post more of this. It’s just too good. Zeds Dead’s beats are just unreal. They make me happy. I love the samples mixed with their signature synth/wobbles. It’s nostalgic and yet futuristic. Simply amazing.
