What I'm Watching (5/3/11): JC Poppe, REKS, The Foreign Exchange and Big Wayde


It's Tuesday and I have four dope videos for you that I've bumped into on the Internets or caught via email. Today, you get a solid offering from the homie JC Poppe, REKS, The Foreign Exchange and TMB newcomer Big Wayde. Enjoy the videos after the jump. Chea!

ScienZe presents "Simply Aesthetic" (Trailer)


Folks that know me, know that I don't typically post trailers to projects. But in the last year, ScienZe has put out two dope projects (yes, I'm still blasting The Hall Pass by the way) that I've enjoyed AND the beat on this trailer is ridiculous. Next Tuesday, May 10, ScienZe will be releasing Simply Aesthetic EP, featuring seven cuts with features from Sene, Ayomari and D. Julien and production by way of Blu, King I Divine and Lord Quest. Leading up to the project, tomorrow he'll kick off 7 Days of Aesthetics.

ScienZe writes, "#7DaysofAesthetics; a series leading up to the EP that will include a variety of images painting the picture of exactly what I envisioned for this project. Because no other singles from the EP will be released (outside of Main Attraction f. Sene), each image will be accompanied by a special lyrical snippet to compliment the visuals."

Looking forward to the new work from ScienZe. Stay tuned.

Fresh Daily "The Quiet Life"


This is a great project. Many artist rush through a concept and deliver haphazard final projects. That's not the case with Fresh Daily in his latest offering, The Quiet Life. With a solid concept, fresh production and a few features, Fresh Daily delivers a project conceived in the winter and delivered in the spring. I can dig it! This is the perfect project to flow right into summer. From the title cut, "The Quiet Life" and through to the bonus,"Good Dude", Fresh Daily narrates one hell of a story. Check out one of my favorite cuts below and then head over to freshdailymc.com to read the backstory on The Quiet Life, laid out in a dope booklet form and download the project. Chea!

TMB's Throwback Video of the Day ... Tina Turner - "Private Dancer"


So we're back with Thursday's Throwback of this week. I finally took it out of that great year for music, 1996, and took it to the 80s. Songs tend to just pop into my head and this seemed like a fantastic next to last song for this week's series. Tina Turner is a fabulous woman. Her raspy, sultry voice will be forever recognizable and who wouldn't want those legs?! Off her 5th solo album, here is Tina Turner's "Private Dancer" off of the 1984 album with the same name. Enjoy!

TMB's Throwback Video of the Day ... DJ Kool feat. Biz Markie & Doug E. Fresh - "Let Me Clear My Throat"


My apologies for rolling these out so late! I let my week get away from me, so I'll be posting Wednesday through Friday's TMB's Throwback Video of the Day throughout today... Now back to business.

If you have not jammed to this at somebody's house party, club, etc... you're completely losing. As the young kids say these days, "hustlin' backwards." Ha! Apparently I CANNOT get out of the year of 1996, so you'll have to forgive me. DJ Kool's most popular song to date, this is 1996 hit "Let Me Clear My Throat" featuring Doug E. Fresh and Biz Markie. Now get out of your emeffin' seat and get to jiggin'!

DJ Multiple Sex Partners "Sweaty Summer"


I dig it. I would say more but this sums it up nicely - "PLEASE, DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM AT ALL, UNLESS YOU ARE ON DRUGS, AND SURROUNDED BY THE OPPOSITE SEX. OTHERWISE YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THIS COMPOSITION."

Ha! Enjoy.
