THE BARE MIDRIFF!!!!

Larry and Jerry mull ideas for the “Seinfeld” reunion show, including an assistant’s attire and a religious symbol. Episode was epic, as usual. Goodness. Enjoy.

More new Wiz, this latest joint is off his forthcoming “Burn After Rollin” mixtape which drops so soon that you can taste it. It’s a remix of “Walking on a Dream” by Australian electronica group Empire of the Sun (who got some love from the hip hop community after Jay-Z reached out and decided to throw them on the BP3).

Honestly, I think if he wanted to remix any song on their album, he shoulda rocked that “Delta Bay”. I hope he reads this and decides to take on that task, because THAT is their craziest track. Nonetheless, it’s a smooth joint. I’ll include the original. My younger brother actually put me on these guys a while back, so credit him for it all. Enjoy.

BONUS! The original track: Empire of the Sun – Walking On A Dream

PLUS! The track I think Wiz shoulda done instead of this. I’m just saying. Empire of the Sun – Delta Bay

Good GRIEF. This episode was hilarious. It’s called “Denise Handicap” and it’s about Larry’s encounters with some wheelchair-bound women. It’s incredible. Enjoy.

i’ve supported jackie chain for a minute, and the alabama-born, half-caucasian half-asian sensation is back at it. two more jams that are just superb trunk volume music. look out for some type of behemoth-sized project from this guy soon, because he’s been grinding. i think we should try and get him a haircut soon, though. i’m just saying. check the video for “diamonds & cadillacs” below, as well as the audio stream and download for “alabama dodgers,” a crazy joint with yo gotti hittin’ those off-key notes on the chorus that still somehow makes the hook infectious.

In The Ruff is the highly anticipated debut album from new DC hip hop group The Diamond District, created by state veterans Oddisee, X.O. (yes, the same man from studio 43. he’s working overtime.) & YU. it’s the answer for any lover of hip hop who asks the question – “Where did that grimy east coast sound go?”

the group was founded by rapper/ producer oddisee (right), who has a long list of production & collaboration credits with the likes of Freeway, Talib Kweli, Siagon, Little Brother, Trek Life, Charles Hamilton, Jazzy Jeff, Buck Shot, Royce the 5′9”, Nikki jean, Muhsinah, J-live, Lil Fame of MOP, Skyzoo and many more. Oddisee’s soulful, haunting samples over bass-heavy beat breaks create the perfect instrumentals for him, X.O. (middle) & YU to match with their street savvy, politically conscious lyrics.

that raw mid-90’s Boom-Bap themed album for the DC state of mind, destined to appeal to all lovers of hip hop’s golden era, managing to travel back in time and push the boundaries of DC Hip-Hop simultaneously.

now who says i don’t post great hip hop? legendary status for this mixtape, should have got more love by the e-masses for sure.

my man dj meistro just passed me Ram di Dance 1 & 2 for your reggae listening enjoyment. the DC based spinning pro mixed up some classic, early 90’s reggae with some current dancehall jams. featured on Turntable Lab (and in their retail stores). big up to the multi-talented Dave Nada for the A+ cover art! who says DC doesn’t support reggae/dancehall, anyway?
