What I'm Watching: Mad Flows "Fo' Leaf" (Cypher Cyndicate Posse Cut) feat. TASK1ne, Konkwest, Chuuwee, and Lifted

"The mad rapper, the mad bloggers know I kill shit ..."

Not sure if that Chuuwee line was directed at TMB but we do know these Sac rappers are killing shit. And have been killing shit. When Mad Flows sent me this track a few weeks back I thought it was an incredible joint and really showcased some of the talent coming out of Sacramento. Featuring (in order of appearance) Task1ne, Mad Flows, Konkwest, Chuuwee and Lifted, "Fo' Leaf" is a solid posse cut. Pay attention. Enjoy. Chea!

Interview: Miss Special x Blu

Miss Interview ... err ... Miss Special chops it up with Blu in San Fran. Enjoy.

Before his show in SF I got to sit down with Blu and talk about a few things. We spoke about working with Quelle and Chuuwee on songs dropping later this year, the status of his "UCLA" project with Madlib and the idea behind the song "Doin Somethin" with U-N-I, Pac Div, TiRon, Ayomari, J*Davey etc. We also spoke about his newest release "Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them" including the reason for the "un-mastered" sound, if there will be a mastered version and why the tracks were from 2009. In addition, we spoke about the samples he's chosen for Exile, the many more songs from "No York" and hard copies of "Below The Heavens". (Again, I sincerely apologize for the quality of this video, the Exile one will be much better on Friday).

Boog Brown - "Baby Girl" (prod. Georgia Muldrow)

Both versions have their own feel to it and both work for me. Boog Brown doesn't disappoint on "Baby Girl" dedicating this track to those hard working, talented women in the world. Take a listen.

Boog Brown has released her first ever vinyl 7" as part of Mello Music's new monthly series. The record features 2 songs produced by Georgia Anne Muldrow. The first "My Love Rmx" was featured on Boog's Brown Study Remixes album, but the B-Side is a previously unreleased track that Georgia laid the soundscape under titled "Baby Girl". The 7" vinyl series is limited to just 300 copies of each edition! To give listeners a taste, Boog & MMG are giving the B-Side track "Baby Girl" along with a second version of "Baby Girl" - both produced by Georgia Anne Muldrow.
