Aarophat - Vibe Music

2006-04-29T10:01:00.000-04:00

First off I would like to give a big shout out to Co Founder of Rugged Soul Records, Dj Deeper - for hookin me up with the illy tracks off the forthcoming LP by. Youngstown, Ohio, emcee, Aarophat! good looks on that bro. Many of you may remember Aarophat released several singles through the joint venture between Pockets Linted and Fat Beats Records, the most notable being "Gritty" / "Darkwind". Then in late 2005 , DJ Deeper, and Rob A, (Rugged Soul Records) signed Aaro to a one album deal and the result was the forthcoming release titled "Sound Volume 2: Vibe Music." from Ohio, emcee Aarophat,and production by Illastrate
>(Lords of the Underground, Akir, Broady Champs etc ...) prepping for release later next month. I love how Aaro, along side Illastrate, gives it a mid, late 90's feel to it, thats dope when you can get that in 2006, I know you people know what im sayin..
So yo make sure you people who are feeling these two dope tracks im bout to lace for yall, show support to Aaro, Rugged Soul Records, and everyone who worked hard to make this release possible..

The Year of the release is 1994, the label is Project Sound. 3 tracks on this release, side a, "who's blowing up far rockaway queens" produced by Koors, which in my opinion is the sickest of all 3 tracks. side b, "never slumber", produced by Koors. and also on side b, "in the mix" featuring Fangs, and cuts by Frisk, this track is also produced by Koors.. Kapone, has one other release on Penalty Records, titled "get down to it / no jurisdiction" 12" with production by Eric Sermon.

Ok this release has 2 tracks on it both , are produced , written, and arranged, by Half A Mill. "Any Day Can Be Ya Last" is the first joint, this track is my least favorite of the 2, but in noway is it wack, its actually dope as fuck, but track 2 "Another Homicide Scene" is off the chain, fresh lyrics, dope beat, all around quality.. The Label is "Half A Million Productions" / "Power Records" ... Half A Mill, Was shot, and murdered, a few years ago in his Brooklyn apartment, I believe it was over a drug deal gone bad. Looks to me like it was just "another homicide scene"... (RIP) Jasun Ward AKA HALF A MILL! PEAZ!!

Ruggedness Madd Drama turned heads in 1994 with their song "For Real." Their unique vocal style — grimy voices and rhythmic cadences — makes them one of the best underground groups in Philly. On the phat track "Make U Go Crazy," they sample Old Dirty B's phrase "make you go crazy" off of "Brooklyn Zoo." Their newest singles, "Best Ones Yet" and "Make U Go Crazay," show that they are here to stay. All songs produced by Ruggedness Madd Drama, except for "Me & My Squad" which was produced by Eddie Hurk, Chink, and Ruggedness Madd Drama. 1994 Emay Records.

01-for real

Old & Wise

2005-12-28T10:21:00.000-05:00

the name is yah supreme, and the band is brohemian! Brooklyn-bred emcee Yah Supreme made a splash in the indie hip-hop scene with producer Cave Precise. Their first 12” “Old & Wise” was widely received and paved the way for them to release subsequent singles and a compilation on their label, Son Doo Recordings. In addition to releasing material through Paris’ Underground Academy, Yah is performing regularly in New York City with his band Brohemian. Buttressed by drums, percussion, bass, keys and multi-part female harmonies the "Yah Supreme sound" has greater depth and finesse. Best described as "atmospheric hip-hop" his classic-soul inflected arrangements coalesce with plaintive anecdotes and earnest introspection. “Old & Wise” was produced by Cave Precise..

3 joints

2005-12-06T23:01:00.002-05:00

here is a man who needs no introduction. Not a stranger to controversy, Mr. D. Original released a maxi-single in 1998 entitled, "3 Joints" on his independent label, $Money Entertainment$. Many retailers refused to stock it in their stores due to the marijuana leaf artwork on the CD's cover. That certainly did not hinder D. Original. The rapper sold copies of his CD on August 7, 1998 in front of Brooklyn's Beat Street Records along with a complimentary 3-dollar bag of weed. That "original" street team move landed him several nights in jail. After he was released on bond, D. Original appeared on BET Rap City, MTV News, and Howard Stern's syndicated radio show and "3 Joints" went on to sell well over 65,000 copies. Now thats Gangsta! word to Mr.D. all 3 joints on this single are hard as hell.. till next time! PZZZzzzz!

01-whats it all about?
02-come wit it!
03-j.p.m.s.! (just play my shit)

mister voodoo

2005-12-04T20:17:00.000-05:00

A native of Brooklyn, N.Y., Mr. Voodoo has made a name for himself as one of underground hip hop's most talented and prolific artists. Originally a co-host on J-Smooth's "Underground Railroad" radio program on NYC's WBAI (99.5 FM) in the early 1990s, Mr. Voo went on to become a founding member of the group Natural Elements before releasing a series of independent records following the group's indefinite hiatus. Co-founding Hemlock Records in 2002, Mr. Voodoo has since begun using his given name, Agu, professionally. Lyrical Tactics is by far Mister Voodoo's best release its on Fortress, w/ tracks, Lyrical Tactics, Shine, and Hemlock, Hemlock is my favorite track out of the three. all tracks produced by Charlemagne...

01-lyrical tactics (da come off hard pt.2)
02-shine

E-Z on the Motion

2005-11-26T00:08:00.000-05:00

"Swiff" and "Murray" met in '87 and were introduced to "Attic" by a mutual friend in 1991. In 1994 and 1995, "da Grassroots" produced "Certified Dope" and "E-Z on tha Motion," two Juno-winning "Ghetto Concept" tracks, and established themselves as a Canadian production powerhouse. "E-Z on the Motion" is by far in my top 10 favorite tracks of all time..

01-e-z on the motion

fools paradise

2005-11-13T00:15:00.000-05:00

well here we have "slum brothers" 3rd and final release, "fools paradise". it is my least favorite of the three releases, which are, "sure shot" b/w "6 million mc's" 1995 release on "suicide recordings" and "stop fronting" b/w "regular niggers" on "michu". but i picked "fools paradise" this post for the simple fact of its rarity. its released on "scientific records" the year 1997 and the producer and mc goes to "reginald dempsey"
enjoy!

out my mind

2005-11-03T20:14:00.000-05:00

for my fifth post i thought i would choose boston natives "street poets", title, "mindless/out ta flip" the label, "dbk". the emcee on side 1 "mindless" is "punch" its produced by "dow brain" and "brad young". side 2 "out ta flip" this one has "polecat" on the mic. same production, "dow brain" and "brad young". both tracks have remixes and i guess its the same producers, but dont quote me on that.

01-mindless
02-mindless (psyco mix)
03-out ta flip
04-out ta flip (ruffa mix)

this is a pretty good 12inch from seattle based crew "diamond_mercenaries". the label is "conception records" they have droped other dope singles like "fourfifths-earth wind and fire" and "third degree-better days" all of them are really dope, in my opinion, and will probally have their own feature on my blog, in time to come, but for now lets start out with this 12inch from "diamond mercenaries" it has two tracks on it "block drama" which is produced by "jake one" and "block drama remix" which is produced by "mr. supreme".. hope u enjoy

2005-10-28T15:04:00.000-04:00

this is the second release from "blind mice" the title "the book of bm/paper capers". the label "mci" most crush illin. producer of "the book of bm", is 5'6". and producer for "paper capers" is shawn j. period. both tracks are solid, but personaly i like "paper capers" a bit more.. u be the judge. also look out for "blind mice" first release also on "mci" titled "a new beginning" its really the better of the 2 releases..peace

1-the book of bm (bring it to you raw)

2-paper capers
