Freestyle art of rhyme

Great documentary on freestyling and its history. Features an all star crew featuring Mos Def, Pharaohe Monch, JUICE, Supernatural, Craig G, and many more. First saw it onDemand from comcast and I had been looking for it for a while so I figured I would share the link. You only need to download the first part, it is the whole movie, I don’t know why whoever uploaded it did it this way…….enjoy.

Tame One with El da Sensei, as Artifacts, their original group from the 90’s. Great album if you are into that good ol 90’s shit from the eastcoast. A little grime to it, but not hardcore. Do you love Black Moon’s “Enta Da Stage”? I do and I love this album as well. Similar production and flow, but different message. Bring it on.

Jemini The Gifted One – Scars and Pain EP

A lot of people have heard the Dangermouse & Jemini album, but few have heard where Jemini comes from. He’s from Brooklyn and you can tell by his flow on this one. Its a great EP, if only it had been a full album, coulda been a classic up there with the best of em. I also have a few more vinyl rips of Jemini if anyone wants them just drop a comment, i got: Brooklyn Kids b/w Brooklyn Kids (Remix) 12″, Can’t Stop Rockin’ Promo (has 4 different versions of the song), Funk Soul Sensation Remix Promo, IMCUDONT/Who Wanna Step II Dis, Who Wanna Step To Dis.

Raekwon – Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (Instrumental LP)

•March 30, 2008 • Leave a Comment

Another great album, with some of the RZA’s best production, in my opinion. The thing that makes RZA’s production the best is that it isn’t just making a dope beat. RZA uses his emcees to create a dope SONG. He organizes the composition and lay out start to finish, including where a verse goes and when a chorus comes in, every detail. However, he still makes DOPE beats.

Notorious B.I.G. – Biggie Smalls Demotape (1992-’93)

1. Unsigned Hype [Demo]

2. Another Rough One [Demo]

3. Biggie With The Hype Shit [Demo 92]

4. So Watcha Want [Demo 93]

5. Macs and Dons [Unreleased]

6. Blazing Chronic [Unreleased]

7. Can I get With Ya [Extra Verse]

Biggie with a more aggressive flow, similar to what you hear on “Gimme the Loot” rather than his Puff Daddy influenced laid back tracks. Its great to hear biggie again, especially some growing up shit, but unfortunately its clean and some annoying ass mother fucker who I assume produced the tape keeps poppin’ in and sayin’ stupid shit. Still, who could hate on Biggie??? Another rare one for ya.

Genius/GZA - Liquid Swords (1995)

http://rapidshare.com/files/31657462/GZA_-_Liquid_Swords__www.sunetesubsol.net_.rar

This is a Wu solo album that came out during RZA’s 5 year plan. Need I say anything else??? No, but I can’t help it. GZA is the genius for a reason. “So deep its picked up by radios in tunnels.” “I don’t waste ink, nigga, I THINK! / I drop megaton bombs more faster than ya blink!”Ill. Ill. Ill. Gza never wastes ink because the rhymes he writes are intelligent, he THINKS! Thats a lot more than any MC nowdays.
