Wayback Wednesdays: Jeru the Damaja

DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDREL, Jeru the Damaja!  Gangstarr Foundation was one of the illest crews in the game, RIP GURU!  I miss this shit…   “I never knew hustlers confessed in stereo or on video…”

Now I don’t push a Lex
Others had their turn to flex, Jeru is up next
All, these so called players up in the rap game
Got brothers on the corner selling cooked cocaine
It used to be LaToya and, jim hats
But now it’s uzis macs and, g-packs of cracks
Everybody’s psycho or some type of goodfellow
But me I keep it real that’s all swine like jello
Don’t drink Cristal, and I can’t stand Mo
Never received currency for moving a kilo
Or an ounce, make em bounce to this fake-pimp free flow
I never knew hustlers, confessed in stereo
Or on video get caught you’ll know who turned State’s
Evidence, murder weapon, confession and fingerprints
Mama always said watch what comes out your mouth
Tight case for the DA from here to down South
Knowledge wisdom understanding like King Solomon’s wealth
You’re a player but only because you be playin yourself

Wayback Wednesdays: Channel Live feat.Krs One-Mad Izm

“cause there’s all these weak raps steady makin’ hits fuck that!”

Wayback Wednesdays: Black Moon “How Many MC’s”

Make’s me wanna bang out the sweats with Timb’s!

Wayback Wednesday: MF Doom

1999 was the year and former KMD MC, Zev Love X, underwent the metamorphosis into the Metalface, MF Doom releasing the first of many classics Operation Doomsday.  This shit changed my life, not kidding.  Prior to this I think only Kool Keith had pulled off an alter ego succesfully.

Later to become the Vaudeville Villain and King Geedorah, yes, I can say this has to be my favorite MC.  Enjoy.

 

Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyback Wednesdays: Pink Floyd “Echoes”

Just something I’m feeling this morning.  Pink Floyd’s Echoes as performed live in Pompeii.  Got 10-mins for some midweek psychedelia, peep.  No limits.

Wayback Wednesday: Jungle Brothers “Doin’ Our Own Dang”

“Isn’t it cool when you cut your hand and the blood is RED instead of sell out GREEN…”

“You ain’t into it, all you want is profit…”

Content.

Wayback Wednesdays: InI “Fakin’ Jax”

“To all YOU fake ass thugs out there talkin’bout you got this, you got that, you gon’ murder this one an’ murder that one… talkin’ all that BULLSHIT, I’mah put it to you like this, yo…”

Seriously…

“We suggest you put an F on your chest…”

Wayback Wednesdays: NOFX “Stickin’ In My Eye”

Wayback Wednesday: L.O.N.S. “Sobb Story”

“I know you and you know me…”

Back when our only worries were how to get there from here, now it’s all death and taxes… Leaders of the New School (C. Brown, Bustha Rhymes, Milo & Dinko D.) were light years ahead of their time, with lyrical content still relevant to this day.  That’s more than I can say for the jumpsuits they were wearing… Ha!

Wayback Wednesdays: Unplugged

I remember watching this live on Mtv (1991).  You may not remember this, but the “M” in “Mtv” used to stand for music.  Now it stands for Reality Fast Food for your brain.  No DVR’s, if you were a fan you were tuned in or you’d miss it.

Respect to the Gods.
