Damu the Fudgemunk - Same Beat (A/V EP)


From OKP

Producer/Emcee Damu the Fudgemunk is back with another free project for y’all, Same Beat. The project is an A/V EP. Including the dope artwork (by Joe Buck), an audio file for Same Beat below, and two MPC performance + freestyle vids after the jump. Apparently Damu still does not see himself as a rapper, but I think he’s killin’ it on this one. Shout out to JNOTA for the great work as usual.

Coldplay - Left Right Left Right Left (Live Album)



Since May 15th, Coldplay has been giving away this live CD at every remaining show in 2009 (outside of their festival shows). The 9-track collection was also put on their website for free download.

According to the band, the give-away is meant as a recession-busting mark of gratitude to everyone who’s supported them: “Playing live is what we love. This album is a thank you to our fans – the people who give us a reason to do it and make it happen.”

J Dilla - Reality Check feat. Black Thought


Shittt...Premiered by the good folks at OKP, which had the following to say about the upcoming project…

"On June 2nd Nature Sounds will be releasing Jay Stay Paid. J$P is a 25 track collection of unreleased (some have leaked) Dilla beats mixed and arranged by Pete Rock. The project is mostly instrumental, but includes vocals from Black Thought, DOOM, Raekwon, Illa J, Blu, Havoc, M.O.P. and more. This isn’t some haphazardly put together album. Ms. Yancey AKA “Ma Dukes” serves as the executive producer to keep her sons vision in mind."

Had to put this one up..

CONGRATULATIONS TO ME!!


Yeah so I graduated....now what???? You've probably been wondering if I just abandoned this blog or what. I mean, I haven't made a post in over a month, that's pretty bad blogging if you ask me. Ya know, school work, stress, and more school work were holdin me down but now I'm back! I plan on posting all the music that I haven't had the chance to get up over the past month or so by the end of the weekend...get ready. Oh yeah, Temple University is where I spent my college career, just in case you were wondering (which you probably weren't but what the hey).
