De La Soul will be releasing a new album soon to celebrate 25 years in the game. You’re Welcome will be dropping this Autumn, and I for one am very excited by that fact. Their 20 Years High & Rising show that I caught in Sydney in ’09 was one of the best live sets I’ve seen. Hoping they bring the band to Brighton in the next year or so.

Kid Tsunami ft/ Buckshot x Chubb Rock x Pharoahe Monch x Jeru The Damaja – The Chase [@KidTsu @Buckshot @MrClassicFlavor @PharoaheMonch @JerutheDamaja]
March 4, 2013I’m a sucker for a good posse cut, especially when the emcees involved aren’t necessarily ones that have regularly jumped on a track together. Kid Tsunami has lopped together a cracking combo of golden era heavyweights for his track The Chase, taken from his forthcoming release of the same name. Massive.

February 5, 2013Brighton residing super-producer The Purist has just dropped his new TR-ill EP, featuring the likes of Danny Brown, Havoc, Sean P and more. Needless to say, its really fucking good.

184 Presents: When Producers Attack!!! [@184Productions]
January 21, 2013The homie 184 has just dropped this album featuring some of the best remixes of his fine back catalogue that exist in the world today. Productions from the likes of The Purist, Kashmere, Mr J, Lewis Parker and Evil Ed to name just a few. Sixteen tracks will set you back the non so princely sum of two quid, so dust off your Visa Debit and make that purchase.

Koaste – Southern & Boozy [@Koaste]
January 16, 2013Got a week away from the bar this week, so I’ve started writing to a few things I’ve wanted to write to for a while now. Here’s a little something I wrote yesterday over The Purist’s track Northern & Roozy with Action Bronson which dropped a little while back. Its a little summery, but I’ve never been one to keep in sync with the seasons. Besides, its gonna be summertime somewhere in the world.
