BOOOOYYYY, WAS i WRONG....

My Thoughts On #4YourEyezOnly (by @JColeNC) // 12 12 2016 (A.M.)

Ok. A’ight. i was buggin’, i was buggin’. 4 Your Eyez Only is quite tight, actually. On my current, just-now-as-i-write fourth full listen, i’m feeling like this album picked up right where 2014 Forest Hills Drive left off, sound-wise; steering into more focus on the use of the instruments. And, Cole used his voice well, and in various ways to project his messages way more often this time around.…

MUSICAL PEAK i’d argue that a lot of things in this world are best in their rawest form; their most true — music being one of those things.

Fitting

Finally completed the trilogy of A Tribe Called Quest first three albums last night in the a.m., with Midnight Marauders being the last one i had left to listen to—phenomenal. But yeah, so… This is where it gets weird, right… Since i have a playlist comprised of music (full-length projects to be specific) on my phone that i’ve yet to listen to for first times, what i now do, is listen from the…

Buss da GEMS

you know it’s a quality interview when Westwood isn’t asking questions and let’s a guy such as Bussa Buss drop insights, knowledge, stories all from his own personal experience & observation. i’m glad that Busta touched on the gap between the beginning of hip-hop and where it’s gotten to now; its current juncture. it’s important that guys like Buss are around “to remind,” like he said and spoke…

Method Man & Redman · THEE Undisputed Best Live Performers living

talk about how the caliber has lowered… in modern day “hip-hop” — if that’s what you wanna call it, the demand for has stooped to an all-time low… and I just saw an all-time great show. NaS, you were right… “Hip-hop IS Dead.” “I’M. SO. APPALLED.” Last night I attended the Method Man & Redman show at the O2 Institute (Birmingham) and witnessed the art of true emceeing. I now have a top 5 list of…

fayvret theeymz I was on YouTube watching some old clips, feeling nostalgic like I often do, and was watching the Blossom theme and thought it'd be cool to throw together a compilation of my favourite theme songs.

Why the F*** ain't they F****N'...

Why the F*** ain’t they F****N’…

put the short film out first, then the EP? I listened to the [TWENTY88] EP when it dropped 12 days ago, right. Honestly, I wasn’t feeling it as a whole. When I found out they were releasing it, I was like “OH, MAN.” on a double-edged. One side of me was thinking this could be the heaviest collaboration in a gooood while. Other side of me thought it could go terribly wrong. Post-listening, I’m…

YOUR PACE

YOUR PACE • my perspective on how the driven ideology of perfection is hurting the human race.

  this brand new 27-minute [sound] clip — recorded earlier on tonight — came from an impulse of mine at the time. my speakings were built around my direct thoughts on an ideology that I cite as irrational-rooted: “perfection.” the reason I chose to speak on it, is because I believe that the idea of perfection, for such a long time now, has dragged people away from what their own ways of life…

fifteen years a spectacular

This song alone speaks for today and the subject behind this entry. If you don’t know [why I’m sharing it], go back and check on of the greatest spectacles to ever have graced the eyes of a young child like it did me. Shows are rare these days. When I say rare, I’m saying… If you’re a fan of LIVE events, how many of those would you…
