  • LokoOne said:Can we get some links? ;) So much great stuff was lost in the crashes. I remember someone starting a thread capping on a newly-released comp of entry-level break tunes off rock records. The pile-on got steadily bigg…
  • Joey Barton is what we Scousers would refer to as "a gobshite" and "a blert".
  • inVrs said:nocluos said:The Persuasions? No, its not them. But a male group as well. The Hi-Lo's? Singers Unlimited, perhaps? They did some joints for MPS. I would say Take 6, maybe, but they're almost certainly way too current to…
  • nocluos said:The Persuasions? Yeah, this is who I was about to suggest. One or two of their earlier joints used to be fairly easy to find for cheap, like Street Corner Symphony, but I guess some may be a harder/pricier catch than others.
  • bassie said:He hasn't kept it up, but Ka's tumblr has some stunning photographs.http://brownsvilleka.tumblr.com/ He also directs and edits his own videos...all of which are beautifully done. It's a genuine interest and skill. I would say art …
  • I caught something on Twitter about the ceremony being due to take place yesterday, but the Spidey costume is a wonderfully surreal touch. This whole saga really is the gift that keeps on giving.
  • This is kind of interesting, though.
  • batmon said: Pretty much.
  • Jay-Z ???Magna Carta .???.???. Holy Grail??? review: When fans are reduced to customers [snipping 900 words of asshurt bullshit] Today the world was shaken by the revelation that a great deal of the most popular rap music often …
  • Jonny_Paycheck said:4YearGraduate said:Shiiiit. I guess you all were unaware we now get weighted "units" for YouTube plays? That's more like payola. I can't think about an instance of a company buying the first million "units" of a record, sin…
  • Jonny_Paycheck said:Cold Turkey really is that shit Kind of annoyed that #MCHG has overwhelmed everything this week. Unjustifiably, too. It's going to be interesting watching people playing catch-up.
  • This is a great album. 2013 has been a banner year for music, straight up.
  • Big_Chan said:THIS is the diggin' joint. Great video with all the homies at the old Big City Records in Manhattan..... Does he shout out JP at the 3'23'' mark?
  • Obvious as it'll sound, the only thing I've heard lately that even feels like a summer jam in the classic sense is Get Lucky. Of course, Local Summer Jam Experiences will vary from region to region, nation to nation, party to party, backyard to yard…
  • Grope said:not about me, but i gave a friend a link to some jazz blogs and she wonders if downlaods could get her into any trouble. is it really illegal when you download old jazz albums that are from abroad and there are no reissues and the labels …
  • Simply serves to emphasise that Jay is now deep into his 90's De Niro/phoning-it-in period. While we're at it, does anyone really believe it makes a blind bit of difference anymore whether your album is bankrolled by a phone company, a drinks…
  • skel said:Btw her dad was a Tory, her husband helped Thatcher (pshaw) into power, it'd hard to garner sympathy for such a lady Harsh. Sins of the father, etc. Her first husband was, I'm sure you recall, a dyed-in-the-wool pinko. I never…
  • I'm going to interrupt the Lito love for a moment, and engage in some Euroman self-indulgence. I don't recall whether or not this old-ass clip of Dizzee straight deading the Fireman beat circulated all that widely at the time, but it's one th…
  • Jonny_Paycheck said: it's on itunes today I was just about to post a link to iTunes. Copped it from the German site last night. First listen; it's really, really good, and the production is TIGHT.
  • Jonny_Paycheck said:would that even be a relevant prerequisite for writing the review? Nah, not at all. Just that I'd always understood that his attitude towards rap was, generally speaking, pretty hostile. I actually think this is a re…
  • Also, I can't even be bothered getting into some type Brandon Soderberg "how dare people have an opinion different from mine" bullshit over this. I can completely understand people not liking this record, just as I can understand the scepticism abou…
  • CratesGatsby said:DocMcCoy said:Lou Reed chimes in. Yep, you read that. ^^ "I can't figure out why he would do that. It's like farting." "it was like, look out, this guy is making connections. You could bring one into th…
  • Lou Reed chimes in. Yep, you read that.
  • Been bumping Luther all day, anniversary of his passing and all that. He may have been too smooth and sweet for the purists, but for me he was one of the greatest of his generation. To wit, a few of my fave Luther deep cuts; She's So Good To …

  • If David Villa doesn't sign for Spuds, then someone's spent an awful lot of time on this for nothing.
  • RIP. Bruce was the star of Enter The Dragon, no doubt. But, BITD, me & my boys all came out of the theatre quoting Williams' lines, and we all went to see Black Belt Jones because Jim Kelly was in it.
  • cai said:DocMcCoy said:El-P X Killer Mike: The Sequel - Run The Jewels. It's pretty good. I'm not usually a fan of El-P's beats but this is an incredible album.. wow It ain't for everybody, but it demands that you accept it o…
  • Jonny_Paycheck said:this shit sounds like a motherfucking riot. :hard_as_fuck:
  • Sorry, who's on trial again? I've forgotten.
