Technical Difficulties

So I've been experience some technical difficulties with the html coding. The white background to all my posts is not showing up for some reason. At first I thought it could be something wrong with the blogger server...but it's been happening for a few days now...I'm gonna have to look into this...I'll still be posting regularly, so keep checking back, hopefully the posts arent TOO hard to read for you guys. I'll try to resolve this as fast as possible.

Keep rockin fresh,

Do you love DOOM?
Well all my fellow villains out there, I have great news. A few RappCats have posted up a little goodie for you guys. Designed by RBST. You can get the Madvillain design, along with the Stones Throw one. Both come with the Black Sambo head, naturally.

You can get both download links here

UPDATE:
Apparently Lord Quas has one coming soon! I'll definitely let you guys know when.

Hell Yeah.

Lupe is the greatest lyricist right now. I agree. Plus Weezy bashing! Yess!

13. Wonder ft. Rashaan Ahmad

Wow. I'm so very glad I stumbled across this when logging on today. Courtesy of MS, this album is simply amazing. I grew up on jazz, so I'm naturally in love with this album. The band consists of everyone from Crown City Rockers (Headnodic, Kat O1O, and Max MacVeety), minus Raashan Ahmad and Woodstock. It's an instrumental album, except for for one track (Wonder) that features Raashan, which he kills. Perfect for late night vibing, and jamming none the less. Check it out.

Get It!

Tonedef

Tonedef was one of the first underground Hip Hoppers that got me into this business. One of the first to spark my interest. Although I haven't listened to any of his stuff in a long time, he's still going strong. Check out this track I spotted over at 2DB, Produced by Kno of the Cunninlynguists.

Tonedef - The Distance

Lock it up, and throw away the key.

There's somthing about Chali 2na's voice and skill that amazes me. Here's a track that is supposed to be featured on his debut album, Fish Outta Water, due out this summer.
