Purple Sector…

I’ve been waiting on this for a minute now, and breifly forgot about it until my boy reminded me it had dropped. Needless to say, being the metal fingers fan that I am, I’m all over it like white on rice. Peep the artwork, and download it at THIS link.

‘So, The Music is prepared, the verses are laid. Why don’t you release it now you ask? Good question, my friend. Release Party and Artwork. I’m throwing a release party (hopefully at the middle east, keep your fingers crossed) and, I have yet to decide on the artwork, even though it will be a Free DL tape, we may still hit the streets with some. So, Here is the Tracklist!

1. Dope Boyz Freestyle
2. Breathe Freestyle
3. Untitled
4. 3 Peat Freestyle
5. Let The Beat Build Freestyle
6. Comfortable
7. Phone Home Freestyle
8. Gettin’ Up Freestyle/Remix
9. Cannon Get The Money
10. Untitled 2.

A Whole lotta freestyles goin on, folks. And a whole lotta good music.

It’s called Sweet Lord, download it HERE.

It’s still going down, but, after talking to some people I respect and trying to choose between four of five songs, I’ve decided to lengthen the whole daggone thing into one, awesome, sexy, svelt, delicious, 14 track eargasm. More info as it materializes in my head.

So, since I stopped with WW3, I haven’t really spilled my opinion on too many a topic on this here blog o’ mine. Well, no more kiddos, I’m back like cooked crack.

I think this year’s Democratic Primary was as rare as they get. Though I don’t like her and did not vote for her, Hills shares a lot of Barack’s stances, and, in any other year, would have been our President. Unfortunately, she’s the Karl Malone to Barack’s MJ this year, which sucks, but them’s the breaks. That being said, a VP spot for her just would not be a good idea. It would be suicide. Obama’s ticket is centered on change, and less of the status quo, and good as she is, the Clinton name is synonymous with status quo, making her the polar opposite of this campaign’s core message. I do however think that the myriad Clinton supporters who say they will not vote Obama in the general election are frigging retarded, as they share many of the same stances, and are in the SAME PARTY. Voting across the aisle is a slap to the party, and Primary candidate, you claimed to support months before.

The Finals are here and my C’s are in it and a game UP BABY!

But, this series really could go either way. I know, I hate it too.

Paul and Kobe cancel each other out, with Kobe maybe having a +4-8 point advantage over PP. Kevin will continue to beast the terry cloth soft Pau Gasol, who just looks slow and timid when paired with Kevie Kev for 48 minutes. That being said, Perkins will get ran out of the gym by Odom, who is the most versatile, diverse player he’s had to guard this postseason, but he won’t be outrebounded, which is the only plus there. Rondo and Cassell will continue to show up Fish and Farmar, Rondo too long and athletic, and Sam I Am too good and varied a shooter to be outplayed by the old and diminishing, young and anxious LA duo. Ray will outplay Radmanovic and the other guy who’s name I won’t even ATTEMPT to spell, simply because his shooting and slashing abilities will draw them and others plenty of fouls, and him plenty of easy stripe visits.  The Benches are about as different as two benches can be, ours will get stops but struggle to score without a scoring threat, theirs will score points in streaks and fail to get stops. My Prediction: Us in Seven, but only just barely.

Whoever stole my camera’s mother is a whore, and I hope they get hit by something moving fast. Yeah, I said that.

Lil Wayne recently issued a Big F U to DJs across the states, saying that he didn’t know where they got the tracks and he never saw a dime. Beyond his 9087687689678 mixtapes netting him zero dollars, he has a point, the classic mixtape and the classic DJ are dying, and have been for some time. I grew up on all the Clue tapes my sister would let me keep when she came home from school, and, while Clue wound up being the prototype for what DJs have since become, he picked good music based on merit and flow, spent more time bigging up featured artists more than himself and his stable, and ACTUALLY SCRATCHED FROM TIME TO TIME. None of said qualities are being exhibited anymore by mainstream DJs, and the music and its fans are the victims. I know they have to eat, but there is always, always a way to eat without letting the art suffer. But what do I know?

Hey Kiddies, Wale just dropped a new Mixtape sponsored by 10 Deep called “The Mixtape About Nothing”, points if you get the reference. Anywho, it’s being sold over at the 10DEEP shop with an accompanying T-Shirt and a hard copy of the tape itself. Get the pack at the link above, or peep the tape HERE

Hello lovers and fighters. Just some rundown on Kind of a Purple Mood, the mixtape by yours truly. First and foremost here’s what’s for certain. It will be 8 tracks long. Not 9, not 7, 10 and 6 are right out of the question. 6 original beats and 2 tracks over some oldies but goodies by my faves. The cover will be up ASAP, we’re just deciding between three. It will be free for download here and on the myspace page, which, though dormant, is about to get a major facelift and some much needed attention. Also, a month after the fact, me and a DJ friend of mine who shall remain nameless until I feel like telling you (sinister laugh) will be releasing Kind of a Jazzy Mood, which will be the vocals from the previous tape over some Jazz numbers. I’m also looking into throwing a release party of some sort, since, who doesn’t like parties? Until then, Stay classy, interwebs.

As I said before, I am not a fan of mixtapes. However, Mick Boogie is doing his thing. Dillagence, Justus for All, Biggie, and a bunch of others have been really great. Not bad for the lightskinned soul brother. I’m not a jerk like that, so I wont post the links, but head on over to IllRoots.com and check out their Mixes Section, he’s all over it like Michael Douglas on Viagra samples. Word to the Father.

Have been bending me over like Hitler in Little Nicky (great reference, me.) so I have been a bit lax on the posts. That’s all coming to a close, however. I realized I missed three consectuve Wiggety Wack Wednesdays, but next week we will kick it back into high gear. Since this is a frequently updated site, I figured I’d give you some updates on my life. I’m buying a Fuji bike to get around the city in since gas is not going down anytime soon (hate to break it to you, America) and neither is my need to be different places at different times.  I am also selling my guitar in hopes of buying another pair of turntables and another mixer, and an truckload of vinyl.  Between all of that, looking for a potential second job (‘cuz Air Maxes cost money, ya’ll) and dealing with the neverending vortex of drama that is my love life, I think it’s safe to say I’m in demand.

Lastly, I don’t want to post the links, but go to illroots.com and check out all the mixtapes. Be sure to cop Dillagence and the Biggie cut, both very good. Mick Boogie is holding this mixtape ish down, word to the strength.

I am not a fan of mixtapes.  They have taken a MAJOR dip in quality since the mid 90’s. Still, every once in a while, a good one comes along that I get wind of. This is one of them. The mixtape prequel to the tour (which was said to be coming to Boston, but I cannot find dates on any major tix sites. hmm….)  Either way, Enjoy.
