Algorhythms "Ram Nam Satya Hai" x Humpasaur Jones "Funeral Groupies"


Damn, sometimes I'm a slacker when it comes to checking emails and then posting great music when I find it within those emails. Well, I've long been a fan of the content that comes from the good folks over a World Around Records. Recently, they shared two great tracks with me and it's only right that I share them with you.

First, a cool track from Algorhythms. A laid back and very chill joint with a remix provided by s. maharba remix. According to World Around, the remix is so smooth they may never release the original. Ha!



The other joint is one I had heard a while back when Justin over at World Around shared it with me. I thought the cut was dope then and now they are finally getting around to releasing it to the public. I dig it and hope you do too.

EVENT: Brooklyn Bodega Presents We Got The Jazz (6/16/11)


Seems like a fresh event with some talented folks.
Brooklyn Bodega reps at the Northside Festival with a mix of funk, jazz, and Hip-Hop

Taking place in the walkable radius of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Northside is a four-day showcase of the work these people do behind the closed doors of rehearsal spaces, studios and makeshift home-offices, as well as glimpses from their contemporary creative communities around the world. Above all, it’s a celebration of these so-called dreamer types. Because they’re the reason you’re here, at the center of the universe.
Who: The Stuyvesants, Kooley High, Fresh Daily, Tanya Morgan, Che Grand, Naturel, Phony PPL, Progress, Scienze
When: June 16th 8-1130PM, Open Bar 9-10PM

Hip-Hop Breakfast Ep 58


It's like I'm always working, working, day and night. Ha! Last week between my full time gig, and other side projects, I probably clocked in something like 90 hours. This included a quick trip to rural CT for a design project. So, as I started to put this mix together while traveling back via bus from CT/Downstate NY to Upstate, the only thing on my mind was work. So, every track has "work" in it. I guess you can call these some of my favorite "work" related cuts, including Blu x Exile's Blu Colla Worker, Gang Star's Work and of course MJ's Working Day and Night and Kanye's Workout Plan. I'm just having fun with it this week, so just ride with a brother and enjoy. I hope EP 58 helps to kick start your work week. Chea!

01. Blu x Exile - Blu Colla Workers
02. Michael Jackson - Working Day and Night
03. Black Thought - Work
04. Psalm One - Woman at Work (The Song)
05. Gang Starr - Work

What EMS Is Watching ... @DdBMusic - Sure Thing (original by Miguel)


All I have to say is, these mainstream artist better watch out for Daniel de Bourg. I've started listening to The DDB Mixtape Volume 1 - The Prelude which is a compilation of the covers Daniel has done of other songs and it's definitely worth a listen.

Thanks to Q for putting this on my radar.

Check out Daniel de Bourg's Bandcamp page here and his YouTube page here.

Enjoy the video, folks.

What I'm Watching ... The Floacist - "Keep It Going" feat. Raheem DeVaughn


The Floacist, aka Natalie Stewart, released her latest video off her album "Floetic Soul" today. This track features one of my other favorite newer R&B artists in Raheem DeVaughn. The album overall is a great work of art as I have always been a fan of Floetry as a group and individually. The Floacist come through poetically on this with visuals that are simple, yet creative. If you haven't purchased her album, I suggest you do that after checking out this video!

What I'm Watching: Yelawolf “Daddy’s Lambo”



I fucks with Yelawolf. Musically the dude is dope and personally, he seems down to earth. I've never not nodded my head when a Yelawolf track was on. I've also peeped a gang of interviews with him and he's always humble and cool about his musical rise. Now a member of the Shady crew, including Em and Slaughterhouse, he's among some lyrical powerhouses. But Yelawolf holds his own. Anyway, the first time I heard "Daddy's Lambo" I thought the track was dope. Now we have a video to match the cut. Fresh. Funny that (spoiler alert) home chick had to pee and that dude peeled out like a scene from Bang Bus, allegedly of course. Ha! Enjoy the video. Chea!
