This is also a new segment that Boulevard Street will be doing a couple times a month. I created it to help remind folks how music got to where it is today. Your favorite artist today is doing what he’s doing right now because he was inspired as a youth by a song he heard or an artist he was a fan of. (more…)
Watch as he destroys “Planet Rock.” Ahh, the good ol’ days. Back when a DJ was you’re favorite because of his skills and not the artists he associates himself with. Get em Toomp.
Now if only we could get 12 more of these. This sounds like some Crooked Lettaz shit. Is it just me or does he sound 10x better on these type of old school samples? That synth shit ain’t for everybody.
In 1999, Jim Crow jumped into the southern hip-hop scene with their solid debut album Crow’s Nest. With production from a few unknown folks that would later become stars in their own right, Jim Crow came into the game with a sound all their own. On the boards for Crow’s Nest, they had DJ Toomp, Jazze Pha, David Banner, P.A., Mr. DJ & Organized Noize. (more…)
Mr. Westside OG himself hooks up with Rawwss, The King of Trill and The King Of The South for this G Mix. Check the beat switch when TIP comes in. Dopeness. Shout outs to Kim Ellis for the link.
Go get that new Chrome tomorrow. Its not fucking with the first one sadly, but its got enough heat worth checking out. Produced entirely by the Superproducers, Dj Paul & Juicy J.
A dope joint produced by Keith Mack (Ride Wit Me, Live In The Sky). I have no clue why the other joint Mack did on Kuntry (How We Rockin) didn’t make the album. I thought it had one of the hardest beats of the year. I also don’t know what happened to the 3 dope joints The Runners did for the album. Other than that, the album is pretty solid. If you liked any of the tapes I’ve done with him (Cocaine, Corporate Hustle) then you’re sure to dig this. Click HERE to read Kuntry’s song by song breakdown of the album.
