OC Supreme Presents: "Stars & Slow Jams" (Mixtape)

Today I was listening to random music I had on my phone and I happened to stop on a playlist I made a while back when I spent time at Atlantic City for a nice, relaxing weekend and thought to myself "Why not put it together, design a cover, and throw it out there for anyone that might want it?" So that's what this is. It doesn't really have anything to do with Valentine's Day being around the corner but the coincidence doesn't hurt. Download, listen, enjoy, share, and tell all your friends.

Download: Mr. Ivory Snow - "Sex After Smoking" (Free)

Mr. Ivory Snow finally released the "Sex After Smoking" album after a few singles were released and it took me a minute to get to it considering the full time job issue. Haha. I sort of knew what to expect judging by the singles he released prior to it and from speaking to him about his musical tastes. I knew the guy had some talent and skills on the mic. I knew he was meticulous about his engineering, producing, overall creating this album. But after all was said and done and after about 4-5 full listens, it pretty much exceeded my expectations. I really dig Mr. Ivory's skills on the mic, his production choices, and even the amateur graphic designer in me digs the cover art to the album as well.

So many tracks hit the ears like a hypnotic, rhythmic trance putting me into a focus that allows me to take the lyrics in word after word, bar after bar, track after track. I can't help but hit the repeat button a few times just to absorb the tracks a little longer. But that's not to say that there aren't a few misses for me on "Sex After Smoking". Tracks like "Up And Away (Feat. Reem Dollasz & Yung Truth)", "Silver Thunderbird (Dot Rising Above)", and "Buss It Open" don't catch my attention musically but that doesn't mean other folks won't think it's not dope. With 20 tracks total, 3-4 songs won't leave bad taste in my mouth considering how good them other tracks are.

I spoke with Mr. Ivory Snow about his albums. Check out what he had to say after the jump.

What I'm Watcning: PHONTE - "The Good Fight" (Directed by Kenneth Price)

A lot of videos have been put out recently. Dope videos to dope tracks. Phonte releases "The Good Fight" and coincidentally, after I've been talking about my job. Who doesn't complain about their job, right?! The struggle between doing what makes you happy and what pays your bills seems to be never ending but if we can get a job that does both, we'd hit the jackpot. Love how this track was directed in this video. I know most can definitely relate to it. Check it.
