Long Live The Streets…

Between Maffew Ragazino and this young artist Troy Ave the NYC streets are positioned to take over rap’s underground sound.

Troy Ave’s mixtape – Bricks In My Backpack: The Harry Powder Story is buzzing hard on the internets.

Download it here.

Troy Ave is a student of the game. Dude has definitely plotted his movement upwards. His cadence and content is filled with street dreams and their stories. Troy Ave reminds me of a combination of Fab x Jada x 50Cent when they were all at their prime.

Next week Joell Ortiz will be headlining a show at S.O.B.’s and I’ve been promised some special guest rappers from Brooklyn will rock the stage with J.O.

Hip-Hop ain’t dead, it’s alive and underground.

The Lifestyle In Real Life…

My homey the super bad emcee Solace from Timeless Truth is a hardbody Lifestyler. There is a way to rock the lifestyle that isn’t simply about stunting, but also about respecting the environment that we live in and taking advantage of this life.

I fux with Solace [ll] because he actually wears his gear, unlike me where I have so much on ice that most fools think I only own one bear sweater (its more like twenty). When I posted the pics of that Polo Sport Great White Shark tee Solace hit me up and told me that it was one of his favorite I.T.s for rocking when you spend an afternoon at the aquarium in Coney Island.

Timeless Truth are the younger brothers I never knew I had. We even come from the same global position in NYC. Further proof the minds that vibe on the same frequency will find each other. We hear the same universal hum then we respond in kind to that cosmic cosine wave.

And yes, Nathan’s cheese fries >>>

Joell Ortiz: The Magic Number…

I shot some behind-the-scenes footage with Joell Ortiz awhile ago that will prA’li never see the light of day. He is one of the most interesting and articulate music artists I have encountered. Joell’s backstory is ripe for a rap noir flick. I’m happy that some folks are taking a moment to document his life.

Even if its only for a New York minute.

Sean Price and Timeless Truth don’t play games when it comes to running up on sales on the POLO.com website.

I won’t click a link for anything less than 30% but for a 40% Off RL Pre-Sale I’m going innnnnnnnn!

Peep the 40% Off code these dudes blessed me with – PS2010525757

I need this I.T. A while back I lost out on another mean nautical jacket but this time I’m on hunt for red October. Well, orange October then.

That was almost me after Combat Jack brought that 4Loko to the radio show.

This video is what 4Loko is doing to the current generation of Hip-Hop heads not unlike Cisco did back in the day.

We get this link from the kids at Complex mag who know what the young rappers of tomorrow will be spitting…

Figuratively, and literally.
