In time for the weekend...

Merry Christmas from Hollis Queens, Bump!



RIP JMJ.

Good news: the Roots newest, 'How I Got Over', sounds pretty damn good, to me. One critic compared it to Marvin Gaye's 'Whats Going On', which may be a bit of a stretch...

Bad news: they showed up at 11pm Monday night for their first DC show at the 9:30. No big deal, unless you had to be up at 5:30 the next day...:nonono2:

This week I've been bumpin' Black Sheep's sophomore album, Non Fiction.
Technically not Old School, but rather from the center of New School/Golden Era period...still solid.

A few albums I just dug out of the collection and listened to for the first time in a long while:
Buckshot Lefonque (both albums, good shit)
Sex Packets (some serious funk on that one)

12 of the original 14 vids in the original post (4 years ago) are now down.

Bump...

Edit: Looks like Blurred had that one covered on page one. Here's a little known jam that more people are likely more familiar with it's samples that the original jam...

Original Concept - Pump that bass...


And one more just because.

Worse 'em - Triple M Bass


I had both of these on 12"....

Dookey beat me to it. For the longest time I considered that the best hip hop album ever. It still might be, but it's hard to compare to some of the more recent stuff.

I'm actually rather partial to Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip-Hop, myself...

anybody see Nas 'Time is Illmatic'- great doc

i admit I have slept on Nas for ages

not exactly sure why

New A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul albums out...anyone heard them?

Everyone is raving about the new Tribe stuff, but haven't heard it yet

Saw it came out today. Can it really be Tribe without Phife? That's like Beasties without MCA.

New Tribe has Phife. All new stuff, recorded before he passed. Just got it, haven't listened yet. New De La Soul is good. Actually, a lot better than I was expecting. The album starts a little slow, but there's a few gems in there.

Just got new Tribe yesterday. MP3 is $5 on Amazon(prime price?). It is pretty damn good after 1 listen imo.
