Two years on and I’m still loving this remix. How can you not get psyched up listening to this?
Carnival vibes.
When DMX speaks you listen.
Big tune for the summer.
Hip-hop future.
The quality of production on this is incredible.
Catchier than chlamydia.
“Let’s all go on an urban safari,
We might see some illegal migrants.
Oi look there’s a chav,
That means council housed and violent”
One of the highlights of UKF’s Bass Culture at Ally Pally, Feed Me have become a revelation. This latest track is pretty similar to Reptile by Skrillex which caused an absolute storm in 2011 and One Click Headshot is set to do the same this year.
Listening to Radio 1′s Essential Mix, live from Hull, this latest remix from Loops Of Fury blew my mind.
Here’s a beautiful track from Jack Penate. A real contrast to the upbeat hits “Torn On The Platform” and “Second Minute Or Hour“, his latest work is more peaceful and captivating. I really enjoy the simplicity in this music; great lyrics, sung brilliantly.
“I’m so happy, think I could cry,
Then the moment is lost to the sky.
In the silence something is heard,
Brings us back down crashing to earth”

“They claimed mindless thugs organised all the crimes,
But how come somebody mindless be organised?
And blaiming kids for the word spreading’s easy,
But really who can spread news speedier than the media?”
For everyone in the UK, here’s a sysinct summary of 2011. Touching upon a range of subjects from rioting to reality TV and pays respect to rising stars in the industry and legends who passed away. In seven minutes Mystro lives up to his name with insightful reflection on the years events and points out one of the most glaring oxymorons within the years news which was a constant irritation during the development of the summer riots.
Fresh from the BET Awards this is the explicit version of The Shady Records 2.0 Boys 2011 Cypher featuring Joell Ortiz, Crooked I, Royce Da 5’9, Yelawolf, Joe Budden and Eminem. From the looks of it these are some exciting times for Shady Records. Slaughterhouse and Yelawolf are impressing with everything they feature on. With his collaborative album with Shady, Bad Meets Evil – Hell The Sequel, Royce Da 5’9 reminded the world just how talented he is. The contrast of styles in this video goes a long way to summarise the depth and breadth of talent residing under the roof at Shady Records. And not forgetting Slim Shady himself, Eminem, who once again is absolutely stunning. His lyrical genius and the speed and clarity in which he communicates his words is unlike any rapper out there. When I hear him rap like this I can’t help but think we re listening to a genius at work. Also, one last thing. Kudos to DJ Premier for providing “Tried By 12″, that beat is heavy.
Pusha T
(Eyuck) The nerve of you
He’ll sit and clip at your lines like he ain’t heard ‘a ya
I seen it happen before, that man’ll murder ya
The lowest form of a thief is a cat burglar
Tiptoein’, but the whole while clonin’
The elephant’s in the room, the bitch glowin’
Like a ghetto girl with the good weave sewn in
She walk like its hers, but the whole world knowin’
Told niggas it’s the new god flow
It’s that New Testament and the old god knows
And you new niggas don’t get to pass Go
I’ll monopolize, Boardwalk Empire flow
So don’t mention me in the same breath, I’m Genghis
Just ventin’, I never wished to be famous
Truth told, I’d much rather be strangers
Before it leads to me turnin’ niggas to angels
Local niggas hatin’, but I can’t blame ‘em
Cleared the road to the riches but I can’t pave ‘em
Put Trey up on your hook, still couldn’t save ‘em
Better chance with a snowball hittin’ Satan
Dreams money can buy, three racks just spent on my Marty McFlys
Now I’m back to the future, my career deja vu you
When you motherfuckers thought I would hardly survive
You see, it’s a lot of people out there to be fucked wit’
I am not one
Re-Up Gang
Don’t fuck wit’ me
Rappers on their sophomores, actin’ like they boss lords
Fame such a funny thing, for sure
When niggas start believing all them encores
I’m just the one to send you off, bonjour
See yourself as I pull up in that mirror tint
Skins vers’ blouses, you mirror Prince
Chappelle Show, all of you Neal Brennans
Sketch comedy, who is for real pennin’?
The talk don’t match the leather, the swag don’t match the sweaters
And wolves don’t walk with shepherds
These Margiela verses, all you mall-dwellers
Off-the-rack suits, lookin’ like pallbearers
Coffins for my old bitches’ orphans
Daddy’s M-I-A like a Dolphin
Play the Fendi bucket like a shark’s fin
Cool J-ing on you bitches but I’m dark-skinned
We walked in, seats courtside
Dap Diddy, Will Ferrell on my walk by
At the U.S. Open, there’s much more to Queens
Versace blue-blockers, row behind Oracene
(Oooh!)
Dreams money can buy, three racks just spent on my Marty McFlys
Now I’m back to the future, my career deja vu you
When you motherfuckers thought I would hardly survive
Play Cloths Holiday, in stores 10/15
G.O.O.D. Music Def Jam, Push
No shots (Hahahaha)
But nothing goes unseen
Winston Churchill
Centuries ago words were written to be a call and a spur to the faithful servants of Truth and Justice: Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valor, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the Will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.
Jay Electronica
You know the story, when real see real, we recognize
When you see the steel flash, you petrified
Steve Jobs seen death after just retiring
Takes vision to build, God bless the dead
That’s Mac, that’s Pac, that’s Pun, that’s Big
Shit, niggas know the sunshine eternal
I burn slow like “Disco Inferno”
Burn slow like blunts wit’ yayo
Uh, I went from MySpace to the top of the food chain
The sperm hit the egg like a missle
Then nine months later, the celebratory news came
“Exhibit C” gave the whole world a mood change
Electronic, niggas call my album Detox
‘Cause they know I’m finna bring the next Chronic
Roc Nation, Cole World, it’s a wrap, nigga
Put yo’ diamonds in the sky, take that, nigga
Mobb Deep
Yeah
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave ‘em side to side, get jokes when you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your drama is mine
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave ‘em side to side, get robbed ‘fore you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your beef is mine
Uh-huh
To whom it may concern
If it’s hate, wait your turn, dig a crate, make a urn
Please, God, tell Flex drop a bomb on me
Tell the minister to tattoo the Qu’ran on me
Before the men in black try to pin a crime on me
And Rupert Murdoch and his goons get to lyin’ on me
The Lord is my shepherd
So tell the royal family to order my records
And spread ‘em ‘cross Europe in a organized method
We could heal the planet wit’ a organized effort
The Jews and the Christians and the Muslims and the Buddhists
And the Sikhs and Scientologist is all of my brethren
Play this on the radio
You never heard another nigga say this on the radio
We made it out the ghetti-o
Brunch with the Rothchilds, dinner with the Carters
Jay Elect stop the press, criticalest artist
(What the fu…)
Yeah
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave ‘em side to side, get jokes when you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your drama is mine
Put your diamonds in the sky (Sky)
Wave ‘em side to side, get robbed ‘fore you shine (Shine)
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your beef is mine
I done sat around for years daydreamin’ of this
Me and Jay biz, green gettin’ twist
Kids goin’ to school, we still on the bench
Early mornin’ yawning, no sleep, just this
Hardcore, rhymin’ like a diamond when I spit
Come hell or high water, we gon’ make it out the bricks
I done graduated gladiator school, what’s next?
From the bottom, only one way to go to the tip
Of the top, with these nonstop flows I invent
Bars so hard, shit hurt when it hit
My bars like prison bars, I’m trapped in the pens
Of this wildstyle hip-hop, the fuckin’ strongest
Rappers on the earth, it’s a curse and a gift
Black cloud follow my life, how worse could it get?
Respect, power, and money, in that exact order
I got it all, nigga, I’ll break ya li’l neck
Yeah
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave ‘em side to side, get jokes when you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your drama is mine
Put your diamonds in the sky
Wave ‘em side to side, get robbed ‘fore you shine
As time go by, we live by an eye for…
…an’ I’ll die for you, your beef is mine
I first discovered Dutty Moonshine when I heard “Mafia”. It is to date one of the strangest, funkiest most addictive and unique tracks I’ve ever heard. They have now produced a new tune; Get Busy, and it seems while their sound has matured they have not lost any of their niche appeal. Similar to their previous work this bass is just hypnotic. Dutty Moonshine say their aim is to bring swing to the rave generation and rave to the swing generation. Let’s hope they achieve their goal, this is pure genius.
New track from Charlie Snacks. Using the same sample that Jay-Z and Kanye West used for H.A.M, Rick Ross - MC Hammer, he has produced a fresh track with some great lyrics which are bound to make you laugh but also stop and think.
What’s that you hear? Is that Justice, you say? Well no, not quite. Nero have taken “Stress“, turned that son’bitch sideways, shined it up real nice and shoved it straight down your ear canal under it’s new name, Angst. There’s much dispute to whether Nero have done enough with this track to deserve it having it’s own name. There are many, I assume, hardcore Justice fans who feel that it should be simply “Justice – Stress (Nero Remix)’ and many have actually uploaded this track under such a name or similar descriptions. I personally think they have done enough and am a huge fan of this track. It stands out as one on Welcome Reality which is no small feit. However credit where credit is due, that is one hell of a sample and Stress is a sensational piece of music.
