Can You clealy see the black hat in the middle of this shot?
How is Brooklyn always in the middle of some shit?
Even with Queens niggas?
Timeless Truth rocked hard in the heart of Brooklyn with their Lo-Life brethren. The brothers have been taking NYC by storm while Rock-It Science is mastered for release.
Timeless Truth is on the rise and you don’t want no problems with these guys, but y’all knew this already from the Memorex Massacre.

Mass Appeal’s CMJ 2012 showcase was prA’Li the only rap show I NEEDED to attend this year. Everyone whom I fux with and wants to fux with was up in that piece.
Roc Marciano, Alchemist, Action Bronson, Meyhem Lauren, Timeless Truth, Mr. MFN eXquire… Listen, EVERYBODY was there!
The shit felt like a homecoming for all degenerate fans of rap music. The people whom rap music taught how to do the soulclap and then subsequently gave them the clap and various other STD’s. Here we all were, still loving this beautiful whore called rap music. Still try’na kiss her on the mouf.
I hope you live as long as I have Internets. Long enough to confuse music festivals with one another. A3C or Jack The Rapper? College Music Journal or New Music Seminar? Spoonie G or Rakim? Rakim or NaS. NaS or Roc Marciano. It. Does. Not. Stop.
I ran into the homey MeccaGodzilla at the Mass Appeal CMJ shindig and he blessed me with a copy of his concept album ‘Perfect Heaven’ where he assumes the name Ryu Black. The artwork on the project was done by Ron Wimberly whose graphic novel ‘Prince Of Cats’ is on my official graphic novel list.
‘Perfect Heaven’ is the story of a traveling warrior looking to make alliances and fight injustices wherever he encounters it. Ryu Black is the protagonist of this tale.
via YouTube…
“Metsu Ansatsuken [ 暗 殺 拳 ]” is the 1st ever video from RYU BLACK. The Long Island, NY Producer/MC, also known as MeccaGodZilla, completed a successful Kickstarter campaign to create the “Hip Hopera” style album titled “PERFECT 天” the RYU BLACK Musical. Filmed entirely in Japan by Tokyo skateboarder/street brand model Teddy Wilkins, Metsu Ansatsuken is a tribute to the 20th anniversary of the arcade smash hit StreetFighter II.”
The Combat Jack Show traveled to Atlanta to tape the podcast live and direct during the A3C (All 3 Coasts) festival. DJ Drama came thru and discussed his legacy thru mixtapes and music, then Killer Mike blessed the show with knowledge and passion for keeping Hip-Hop as an element of progression.
I cobbled together a few clips from the weekend for this video. Salutes to all the A3C panelists, performers and professionals who make this event the ONLY Hip-Hop festival to fux with.
Just Blaze gives a deejay clinic at the back end of the show.
It doesn’t stop internets.
