Gorillaz feat. Mos Def “Stylo” from LTD Magazine on Vimeo.

World premiere..

New track by Gorillaz with Mos def and Bobby Womack. This collaboration is ridiculous and Gorillaz has always been inspirational.

“Guru, a rapper from the pioneering hip-hop group Gang Starr, is in a coma after suffering a heart attack over the weekend; DJ Premier, the other half of Gang Starr, first confirmed the news on his Sirius Satellite Radio Show Sunday.” -Usmagazine

      Gangstar was a key source of ‘good’ hip-hop for me in high school. Some of my  high school days consisted of trying to educate people on what is “real” hip-hop. Even though I was no pioneer, I felt like being involved in the hip-hop/bboy culture made me a soldier for what I stood for. hahaha I guess I felt better  listeningto Gangstar instead of Nelly. It was just one of those things that separated you from the norm in high school trends. I mean…of course I wanted Nelly’s stuff to hit when I wanted to bump and grinndd…but…If  ’Full Clip’ turned on… 5 people would go nuts, but out of those five, I was included! Pushing people out of the way to get that circle going…but of course, they never played that at a high school dance. I would probably just have to settle and break dance to ‘Chronic 2001′, which wasn’t bad. Anyway; I’m just sharing  how Gangstar played a small role in my life.If you have a short story…lets hear it. Here’s a few of my favorite hits from Guru and Dj Premiere..GANGSTAR!

Rime Interview x MTV Urban Germany from I Love Graffiti on Vimeo.

Jersey Joe, has been known for having some of the flawless letters on the West Coast or ever. I’m surprised MTV had the openess to interview him, but good for RIME.

Here RIME discusses MSK, the city of Berlin, its art, and Fat cap.

Just Blaze’s Baseline Studios Final Viewing (DJ Predakon’s Recap) from DJ Predakon on Vimeo.

Just Blaze invited friends and fans to the final viewing of Baseline Studios, before the walls were torn down. Good food, cyphers, jokes, and a final blasting of the monitors with Jay Electronica’s “Exhibit C”.

Earlier in the year, we featured our good friend DJ Predakon where he was at the Nike Sportswear on Mercer Street alongside DJ’s Clark Kent, and the legendary Premier. Here, Predakon, visits Just Blaze’s Studio for some cypher’s and a personal look.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, or is it. I really think Mos’ interpretation illustrates more of his playful nature and a mutual respect between Emcees.

Either way, it shows Mos thinks Doom is hella hard. Is a collaboration in effect? We will see.
