Honestly I went back and forth for like 10 minutes trying to decide whether to post this or the Dopeman/NWA blend. This mix is so goddamn dope, so many props to Twankle & Glisten (RIP) for ripping this shit back in ‘08. It’s part of why I’m posting it. People really need to hear how great this tape is and realize that compared to whatever bullshit ass dance remix these fucking ableton ravers make of rap songs it doesn’t sound better than a fucking RAP REMIX OF A GODDAMN RAP SONG. Your bullshit is an excuse to play rap to dance people. I don’t give a fuck about that, I want to listen to rap music not some fucking compromise. 

I mean there is a fucking reason this mixtape has been in my phone for over 2 years, that’s how nice it is. I can’t bring myself to take it out of the rotation. Given the playlist has so many choice cuts that win on their own merit with me but the blends just take it to the next level of fun.

Fortunately the link to it is still live so you’re highly advised to peep game. If you like classic gangster rap you really can’t be disappointed by this.

DJ Jelly & MC Assault Lay It Down: Old Dirty South Mix

Oomp Camp elevating the mixtape to another level. The Bass Game series is off the hook for sure, but these old school Gangsta mixes are a personal favorite. They never reach the point of over-saturation but still give you the feeling of being 5 places at once. They also seem to reinvigorate raps that don’t seem as hard now as they must have when they first dropped. Don’t know much about their mix DVDs, though, holler if you do.

8ball & MJG – 9 Milli
Master P – Bounce Dat Azz
2Pac – I Came To Bring The Pain
TRU – No Limit Soldiers
NWA – Dopeman
Too $hort – Couldn’t Be A Better Player
Silkk The Shocker – Let Me Hit It
UGK – Murda
Sammy Sam – Intoxicated
8ball & MJG – Pimp In My Own Rhyme
Eazy E – Eazy Duz It
8ball & MJG – Mr. Bigg
Oomp Camp – Down South Slum
Triple Six Mafia – Who Run It
2Pac – Ambitionz Of Ridah
Juvenile – We On Fire
8ball & MJG – Armed Robbery
Mystikal – The Man Right Chea
T-Slabb – Na Confessions

Yeah, so this dropped today. 

I realize not many people on Tumblr mess with Bay music, and I guess we need everyone posting Wiz’s mugshot, so I see how this was overlooked.

song is better than the video. I’m not totally sold on Danny Brown but I’m interested in some of his stuff

 "as YOU can GO, beLOW zeRO" — he’s creating iambs out of words that don’t naturally fall into that pattern: i.e., he stresses ‘zero’ on the second syllable instead of the first, where the stress naturally falls.

His pronunciation of “zoo” is one of the cooler things I’ve ever heard: a “z” with the smallest possible nondescript little vowel syllable attached to it. There is no way on earth to communicate the musicality of the refrain that ends that song in print.

So I’m finally getting around to reading this Anthology of Rap NPR business, it’s pretty hilarious and interesting. But yeah it’s nice to see an outsider appreciate the brilliance of ODB

Main Attrakionz – Sincerely Yours (SLOWED VIDEO)

CHECK THIS OUT

Is this vicarious codeine sipping?  Lots of discussion around Robert Earl Davis’s influence on a Sunday.  Not complaining.  I though…right?  Or am I am misunderstanding?

it’s almost the anniversary of his death, November 16th is the exact date

In 2007, the department highlighted Pizza Hut’s Cheesy Bites pizza, Wendy’s “dual Double Melt sandwich concept,” and Burger King’s Cheesy Angus Bacon cheeseburger and TenderCrisp chicken sandwich. “Both featured two slices of American cheese, a slice of pepper jack and a cheesy sauce,” the department said. These efforts, the department reported, helped generate a “cheese sales growth of nearly 30 million pounds.”

A NYT article about Dairy Management, a curious offshoot of the USDA that helps get more cheese into our fast food, apparently. It’s really upsetting. (via willystaley)

More people need to read this

They don’t want you to eat healthy, they want you to eat more and the system supports the growth of their wallets

“When eaten in moderation and with attention to portion size, cheese can fit into a low-fat, healthy diet,”

this is one of the lies they always feed you, anything can be a part of a healthy diet if eaten in “moderation.” I can eat my own shit and drink piss as long as it’s in moderation and it will fit in to my healthy diet
