Special guest emcees will include Don Smog, Mic Mangler, Animal Cracker, The Vinylcologist, Oddy Gato, and Vital to name a few. No release date yet as restructuring of the project is ongoing.

SHUPSTATE

This popped up on radar when I was scanning the net. It was a hip hop documentary that was due to to be released and then nothing ever came of it. It features some of our own 518 brethren and jumps around different parts of upstate New York to showcase some of the talent the upstaters have to offer. I'm glad that Dez made it pretty clear and spoke for all of us as he talked about the scene as a whole. The Doc tackles an array of subjects from, Underground vs. Mainstream, Definition of hip hop, and what it means to different people. I'll keep you all posted as I've already inquired about this to Juse One, the man who produced it.

HYPERDOOPERKEYLIMEHAZE


Here's a video taken live at The Tree Fort, which was my old studio in my Dub-V apartment. I wasn't even aware that this existed. Shouts to P. J. Katz a.k.a. Thelonius Spunk for hooking up the video and to DeeJay Tone for bringing it to my attention. Do they even sell chocolate wraps anymore? That's how we got the graham cracker crust blunt for our hyperdooperkeylimehaze tree.

CHECK THE TECHNIQUES


Here's and old pic of Guru and myself. (circa 2002) He was just getting ready to release the Baldhead Slick album. We linked up for a lunch and chatted while I smoked a dutch after an invite only Tommy Boy party and panel at CMJ. I made sure to tell him how much his music influenced me over the years, and how grateful I was that he gave me some time to kick it with him. Truly a humble individual. It's hard to believe that a year has passed since his death. It just shows you all that time is precious. So the next time you are hesitant to bask in the glow of the now, take a look at how fast a minute on a clock really is. This seems like just yesterday to me, and it was almost 10 years ago. Damn.

STREETS WEEPA

"DROP A 'OL SCHOOL BEAT."

This shit had me fooled back in the day. You can totally see the strings. I'd definitely have to pull over and say something disheartening if I ever saw someone doing that now.



I really couldn't help myself on this one. I loved this movie as a kid and it shows you how hip-hop was attempting to go mainstream trying to focus on the dancing as oppose to the rapping aspect. The Chappelle joint is classic though, I wish his show would come back. Every once in a while he snaps jokes on people through twitter.
Turbo and Ozone are still out there as well. Ozone also known as shabba-doo did some choreography for Madonna and helped Jaime Kennedy put together dance sequences on one of his more recent movies. Turbo scored some small roles and movies like Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey , Naked Gun 33and1/3 (the final insult), and played as "urkelbot" on 4 episodes of Family Matters. As of 2011 they have yet to pop up on radar.

This the Joint.


How High?


CHURNSTYLES

The Lionel Subway Edition
It looks black, but it is actually forest green and about the size of a six in hero. A wonderful throwback and big up's to Lionel for bringing something dope back. Damn, that rhymes, and now you just became an emcee overnight.


An understatement.

Before the Buff.


As far as the eye can see.


Stacks upon stacks.


Corel Reef.
How cool would it be to have bought one of these at auction to have as a canvas in your back yard. If only I were rich. I'm sure my daughter would love to use one of these as a playhouse too.

"MANY STYLES, MANY STYLES"

Rock Steady Crew still catching wreck and continuing to blow our minds with their dedication to all things hip hop.


The Head Banger

Shit looks like what Lennox Lewis did to Hasim Rahman.
She was ugly before this happened so it really don't matter none.
peace.
