Check It ... Buff1 - "Neo Classic"


Bumped into this joint off Twitter courtesy of the homie Buff1. Good vibe. I love finding good music.

Via 14KT:
Joint I produced off the Buff1 "Small City, Big Name" Mixtape in 2006. I originally made this beat April 25, 2004. Felt it was only right to reintroduce ya'll to this cause of how Buff wrote the song. He wrote this joint in maybe 05-06. Its crazy cause he writes from the perspective of him already living in 2010!! Most of it came true too..excpet for the "no more sleeping on floors" part..good job Buff!.haha..enjoy!!

Check It ... Likwuid "GO L (What Recession)"


I caught this in the email earlier. Dope. Enjoy.
"While there is one particular female garnishing all of the headlines, there are still a few multi-talented upstart female emcees that are beginning to make a mark in the industry and doing it the old-fashioned way—making dope music.

One such female emcee, Likwuid, has made a commitment to use her gift of song and supreme lyricism, to change the negative portrayal of women in the entertainment industry. Now residing in Harlem but born and raised in the suburbs of Columbia, South Carolina, Likwuid has always been a member of positive change in her community.

Likwuid’s debut LP, Gummie Bears and Champagne, will be released on June 26th, 2010."

What @LadyBlogga is Watching ... Sadat X and Will Tells True Wine Connoisseurs

Wine has always been my beverage of choice. People would laugh and say wine was for old folks. Not true though. Wine is for grown folks and if you don’t know about it then you’re not grown. Researching music on YouTube led me to something called The Wine Connoisseur’s Video Blog featuring Sadat X, produced by Will Tell. I saw the names Sadat X and Will Tell and instantly thought it was music related. It is but it isn’t…

The wine blog episodes are designed like the HBO series “Curb Your Enthusiasm”. No script, just basic guidelines to follow. Improv and Sadat’s personality make the episodes pop. After a few swigs and Sadat’s storytelling flair, the Episodes come to life and are hella funny. Their viewers send them wine from all over to try and that’s how they create their episodes.

I had to know how this came about so I caught up with Mr. Will Tell, the producer himself, and asked him to give me the scoop. Basically this all started because he wanted to chronicle Sadat X’s studio experiences for something called the X Files. Henny was the drink of choice in the studio. When the Henny’s in the system, Sadat is funny as hell. Henny is expensive and one day that wasn’t in the budget. They had to settle for a bottle of wine, el Gato Negro to be exact. What they didn’t know was that wine is much cheaper and creates a better buzz. Will Tell decided that Sadat should do a commercial for the wine and it evolved into a weekly episode blog.

Check out Episode #8 with wine from the Duplin Winery… Compliments of my homegirl @Mlissa910!! ENJOY and subscribe to the series. Follow the episodes, you will not be disappointed.
