Futuristic ft. nobigdyl | Human Being | Official Music Video
From Futuristic - The internet has made a lot of stars & I see kids freak out all the time over "famous" people. Social media allows you to portray an image that can be glamorous, exciting & make you seem like some sort of god when in all reality the people you idolize are no different than you! We make mistakes, we feel the same emotions & suffer with the same insecurities. "Human Being" is to let y'all know that we are all just people. No one person better than the other. The likes on your Instagram & the materialistic things that get flaunted over the web don't change the fact that we all have a heart & a brain. At the same time the expectations put on people with an influence can be outrageous & unrealistic. Dont be scared to come say what's up when you see me! Don't be scared to ask questions & show love but don't get mad if I can't respond cuz I'm a human & have family/friends & a job that keep me super busy! Love y'all ❤️ thanks for everything!

Blu and Exile | SOLD THE SOUL | Lyric Video
10 years after Blu and Exile released their magnum opus Below the Heavens, the California duo have reunited to release 14 tracks from the original 2007 sessions. In the Beginning: Before the Heavens contains previously heard songs and unreleased gems – the best of the best chosen from over 40 songs in the vault. Their third collaboration follows 2012’s Give Me My Flowers While I Can Still Smell Them, and is slated for an October release.
In The Beginning: Before the Heavens is made of up songs that are raw and untouched, keeping the authenticity of Blu and Exile’s creativity at the time. The album has guest appearances from familiar names like Dr. Oop, Donel Smokes, Aloe Blacc, and Blame One. While “Soul Provider,” “Another Day,” and “Party of Two” appeared on Blu’s Lifted EP, the majority of these songs showcase Blu rapping at his peak, maintaining his underground attitude as he dishes on reaching star status (“Constellations”), getting radio play (“On the Radio”), or opposing views in a problem-ridden world (“You’re Gonna Die Someday”). Exile, meanwhile, builds a golden hip-hop era feel with head-nodding samples and DJ scratches.

Maestro Fresh Wes ft. Kool Keith | Skyscrapers | Official Music Video
POPPA STRO MEETS POPPA LARGE !! Canada's godfather of Hiphop, Maestro Fresh Wes, teams up with the one and only Kool Keith of the legendary Ultra Magnetic MC's on this classic banger produced by Lord Quest.
SKYSCRAPERS embodies the essence of Hiphop with beats and bars that resonate.
"I'm looking for the Leaders, but all I see is followers, followers turn into borrowers, borrowers turn into swallowers ".....Maestro exclaims on his verse symbolizing the need for innovators in this saturated cesspool of assimilation.
"Suckers lowered the bar, that's why we raised it!" Wes continues on the infectious chorus.
Using Toronto's CN Tower and New York City's Empire State buildings as the points of references, Wes and Keith body this track while elevating on this classic collaboration.
Maestro Fresh Wes' Skyscrapers featuring Kool Keith is the latest video with music from his LP Coach Fresh which is out now.

This song has a certain kind of bounce that keeps you interested and in tuned to the lyrical mechanics that are about to go down by Frsh Waters and Jean Deaux. The hook is something that needs to be studied because it is highly appreciated for its message.

Off The Record | DJ Premier on Gang Starr's "Mass Appeal"
“Guru always makes the titles to the album first—before we do any music.”
The latest episode of “Off the Record” again features DJ Premier, who breaks down a little bit of the science behind his and Guru’s Gang Starr hit “Mass Appeal,” a classic, rugged boom bap anthem that helped inspire the name of the media brand and website you're reading. Quite the full-circle moment.
Now, for a story.
Every song had an overall mission, says Premier of his studio sessions with the late Guru, who passed in 2010. Some were so-called “rhyming” joints, others were romantic records. "Mass Appeal" was designed as an anti-radio track, signified by the twinkling melody in the background, which Premier explains has a hidden significance.
“We were just saying radio was watering down our stuff," said Preemo, "so we were like, ‘You know what? It always sounds like the music in the elevator.'” Bland and repetitive. It’s a brilliant concept, and one that would probably be more widely publicized if it worked the way the duo intended. Except…
“We were really making fun of radio, and it became one of our biggest radio records,” says Premier, as he reminisces on the track’s success. "Mass Appeal" peaked at No. 67 on the Hot 100 in 1994, and was featured on the soundtrack for the mega-popular 'Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4' video game. To this day, it’s widely recognized as a marquee moment from rap’s "golden age" era.
Gang Starr's legacy might’ve been hard to earn, but Premo helped make it look effortless. Watch “Off the Record” above.
