    Planet Rock cover

    This track called "Planet Rock Pt 1" has some of the biggest drums I've heard in a minute. I bought the 12" single earlier today. The MP3 isn't as thick, but it's still pretty damn dope IMO. Jazz version is impressive too: http://www.myspace.com/breakoutmusicgermany They got props from...

    Best Album Of 2006?

    Fist full o dollaz - agreed. My wanker internet opinion - hip hop is alive. Hoping it will get healthy and strong in 07, like to see the cats on ill participate in the rebirth. Regarding 06, Nas' hip hop is dead would have held it's own just on the title track. add in the song with...

    I Declare War To Da Industry! R U Down With Me?

    I agree about 98%. On the one hand, there's a lot of good engineers out there recording some really good music. On the other hand, overcompressed music fatigues the ear and leaves you feeling kind of annoyed instead of intrigued. Maybe you like it on the first listen, but it's not something...

    Mercury Waters Live

    Can't load the live at the Ottobar vid, do you have another link? Myspace can be sucky at times to see/listen to things... Props on keeping it true and original (not watered down/bling/gangster/negative), hopefully we'll see more and more of this in '07 and beyond. Other than a few gems here...

    Jame Brown Died 12 Minutes ago..

    RIP James Brown. I saw the news on CNN yesterday morning, they cut away to show it, I was on the phone with my brother and just said "oh shit". He is one of a kind, the godfather, the master of soul music, his sound, his energy, he is still felt in all music today and will be felt for all...

    Bastard, First, congrats on graduating with a diploma, that's proof you had the dedication and the will to make something happen. You can do a lot with one diploma, once people know that you graduated, it opens up a lot of doors. Now, since you're spitting on me in public with your replys...
