What I'm Watching ... SHATiFF "Lovebird-Remix"

Check it.

In the LoveBird SHATiFF takes his listeners on a visual ride and shares with them the beauty of life from his perspective. He sheds light upon the dark and highlights the calm in a harsh reality. Using intimate backdrops throughout the DC metropolitan area SHATiFF displays for his audience the serenity of people enthralled by life's everyday moments. He captures the essence of solitude and the simplicity of love, fleeting moments that only a well-trained eye could uncover.

Lyrically the LoveBird is the definition of Neo-Righteous. In it SHATiFF shares his wisdom and strives to give you an honest perspective of himself and his community. Artistically, the LoveBird widens his audiences' view of who he is as an artist and as a man.

Produced by Self-Scientific & K-RocProductz. Featuring Gretchen Parlato

What I'm Watching ... Wrekonize - "One Too Many (Freestyle)"

I've heard the original version to this beat and I can't even tell you how much this one blows it out the water, in my opinion. This track is one that would probably never get too old for me. Wrekonize is definitely a talented MC.

Never Too Many

Wrekonize has been blessings us with freestyles all summer long and will be releasing a new solo project soon, titled A Soiree for Skeptics, so keep an eye out for some fresh new music from your favorite drinking partner on the mic by the end of the summer.

Until then, Wrek takes us through his usual blurry daze with the help from director Roberto "Beans" Granizo for Wreko's drunken lament, "One Too Many (Freestyle)". So pick your poison, pour a glass and click below for the video and download link.

TMB's Track of the Week 7/1/10: "I'll Kill Her" Cee Lo Green

Cee Lo Green's "Stray Bullets" mixtape was pretty damn good. I liked a lot of the tracks. The one track that jumped out at me and found itself on repeat for a while was "I'll Kill Her." It's kinda funny. Check out, "I'll Kill Her" featuring ME & LOnan the Destroyer, the track of the week.

Nasa of Uncommon Records recalls The Rammellzee (RIP)

I'm posting this a day late. I'd like to thank Nasa from Uncommon Records for passing this along.

What's up everyone?  For those that don't know, news has come down that hip-hop & graffiti pioneer The Rammellzee has unfortunately passed away.

While I didn't know him personally, I had the rare treat of a sit down audio interview with him for my podcast, Uncommon Radio in early 2007.  We talked about the beginnings of hip-hop, the evolution of his career and played a bunch of his music including some stuff that was not released at the time.  He also dropped a super abstract freestyle at the end of the show.

I'm proud to have gotten the chance to talk with him and with him gone now, I thought this would be a good way for younger generations to now find out more about him.

peace, nasa.
