Afternoon to ya! I’ve been doing some non-music projects over the last few days. Preparing to do photography and video for a wedding this weekend. I also had a chance to be with my family for a nice cook out Sunday. We had a wonderful time and the food was great

Today I am fiddling around with wires, trying to network a Windows 7 pc with a Windows Xp pc. So far so good, if not; I’ll have two set ups. One will be all digital w/ software, and the other will include hardware equipment.

You know me, I have to watch something, or have music going when I’m doing “under the desk” wire connections ..lol. I found a nice beat making documentary that I’m about to push play on. I know a lot of you will enjoy this, it’s more like a movie actually:

“Turn It Up” Stress Dollaz produced by Ms.Tris Beats

Hey Hey all .. this is how I like to network. Stress was one of the 1st artist I posted about: feature-artist-stress. His manager reached out to me when I was a new blogger. It took us a while due to my schedule. I finally got Stress some beats, now we are rolling with some heat!
This has a super catchy hook…

Other than Baltimore artist, I haven’t posted alot of music I produced on the site yet. Some projects I work on are complete albums. Since it’s a joint effort, I respect when the artist wants me to blast material or not. To all artist that I’ve done songs with, just let me know what you want me to post.

I’ve made a few more connections with new artist here, know that we will be moving on our songs soon. ( Purp Reynolds out of cali is next)

I will be adding much more now that everyone seems to be doing mixtapes. It’s the perfect time for music so you can play it your vehicles during nice weather

Happy Beat Making To All

This morning I’m up early. I’ve been puppy sitting for a couple days… and he’s a cutey. It’s my cousins little Shih Tzu and looks similar to this

He’s been adorable the whole time… he pees a lot though ….

Well I have several projects on the way. Today I’ll be doing a couple beats for some pioneers of Hip Hop. This opportunity is an honor. Easy Tee one of the original members of “The Dream Team” hit me up for some new heat. It’s 6:43 am, and I’ve fed puppy… I’m gonna play with him a while, then get started. I’ll post up some pictures of how I’m doing on the tracks through out the day…
I felt like doing something different with todays posts.

In the meantime, check out some Hip Hop history. Easy Tee’s Myspace page is loaded with links to the origionators. This is the true roots of Rap Music/ Hip Hop which was born over 30 years ago!~…

Part2:

Stress

Thanks to Prezidential Records for giving me the tip on artist with “Five Hots”… next up is Stress, an emcee straight outta Queens. If you are a fan of Fabolous, you’re gonna love Stress. On a rainy Friday morn his hit single ” Show Me” has the head nod factor off the meter! Having sold 10,000 copies of his album “Who Am I”, He’s using his indy hustle to reach the top.
“..Put ya hands up if you get money…” Stress definitely has that Big Swagg for the masses. He’s keeping the art of lyricism sparked with hot punch lines and clever metaphors. Another favorite about Stress is his choice of beats. Leaning towards tracks with an eastcoast bounce feel, he’s chosen the right back drop for his street certified lyrics….

“Show Me”

I know I know featured artist weren’t supposed to arrive until June…But, Prezidential Records gave me the up on 2 artist who are making power moves you need to know about like… yesterday…

In this crazy world of Hip Hop, independent labels are arriving on the scene in record numbers. Some are bad , some are good, then you have those considered Great! The labels which are great usually consist of “Five Hots”
1. Hot Artist, 2. Hot Production,3. Hot Songs 4. Hot Management, 5. Hot Promotion.

I know there is far more criteria, but in general these are extremely important. When all these consistantly come together..whaaaala! I’ll be promoting artist and labels that are utilizing the ” Five Hots”, and making power moves in the game. Lets learn from one another as we grow into greatness, always improving our ” Five Hots”…shine artist shine!

Man oh Man has it been along time since I’ve heard whats being slated as “Real Hip Hop”. Once you get to know my music you’ll see that I try to stay up with the up. I make all kinds of Hip Hop..Eastcoast, Westcoast, Dirty South, Mid West, Experimental … you name it!.
I stated in “I Was A Sample Queen” that I grew up on classic Hip Hop , the Boom Bap 90′s style, and all the great underground artist of that time. Now being that I’m from the eastcoast and raised on this classic Hip Hop, of course when I got into Dirty South, mnnn let’s just say some may have thought ” She’s sellin out”..lol. This is simply not true. A lot of Hip Hop heads seem to have forgotten Uncle Luke and 2 Live Crew from back in the day. In my opinion they were some of the key pioneers of Dirty South music. From Florida to Ny they were burning up clubs with the 808 driven porno rap . Guess that’s where I acquired a liking for a different style, which would later lead to an equal love of crunk.
YeEeaAH!
“On and on it seems to go…don’t know what you got til it’s gone”… Today stations are playing a majority of crunk/dirty south style tracks. So when I come across some Boom Bap Hip Hop, it’s almost like a “family reunion” type emotion goin on. You know like being reunited with some old friends from school or something.. immediately I’m taken back and find myself turning up the volume…Aaaah scratchin..when is the last time you’ve heard songs with scratchin in it on the radio?
For all the lovers of classic Hip Hop, I met a DJ who still ” picks up the phone up on the request line”…
His name is AJ Rok Woodson. We met on Twitter. I went to his site and found myself listening to almost every mix he had on there. It’s called Heavy Rotation Magazine Radio… So he’s mixing Hip Hop from old to new, and even allows artist to send tracks. NOW keep in mind that his station is Hip Hop..don’t go sendin Crunk and Pop Hop..lol. But take a listen and leave comments on the mixes you like. (ga-head click the link, get a mix playing, and read on……….)
