“The Good Morning Mixtape”

03.23.09 Written by Gotty™

B-Dub & Kevin must have known it was going to take something more than coffee & cigs to reinvigorate me after this past weekend’s activities. Found in la inboxo…

Your Favorite White Boy, Nappy Afro and Kevin Nottingham have cooked up a great concept mixtape to get you moving on this Monday morning. As you can see from the tracklist, we mixed it up: we’ve got some classic joints from Run DMC, Ice Cube and Brand Nubian, plus some new tracks from the young cats in the game like Skyzoo and 88 Keys.

After the break, peep the short teaser they created, check the back cover & tracklisting, then holler back @ me around lunchtime. I need a few moments to get my life back in order. Read the rest of this entry »

No Mike behind the microphone this time, as the homie Grim handles those duties. He asks some key questions though, specifically regarding longevity in the music business and a few questions about Blueprint 3.

Video: Bun B Performing At The Austin Music Hall

03.22.09 Written by MZ

First of all, a big middle finger to the Fader Fort for being so out the way of everything else SXSW-related and being such pricks about getting the wristbands (despite RSVP’ing) thus I missed out on last night’s G.O.O.D Music event. But I’ve seen Kanye twice, met GLC the night before (who complimented me on my Crooks & Castles shirt) and I wasn’t trying to be in that crowd after being here 3 days, running on 8 hours of sleep max. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.

What did happen is we caught the show at The Austin Music Hall and got to see Bun B rock the stage for the home state crowd, who virtually Read the rest of this entry »

SXSW Video: KiD CuDi & 88-Keys In The Streets Of Austin

03.22.09 Written by David D.

Praise Jehovah, Cudi isn’t retiring.

In case we didn’t make it abundantly clear already, the B&T show was the talk of Austin. We had artists stopping by all day to witness the future of Hip-Hop be brilliant on our stage.

Two of those artists were 88-Keys and KiD CuDi. If you peeped our review of The Death of Adam or my endless praise of “Day N’ Nite,” you’d understand why I darted to the middle of the street to get a few words from Yeezy’s buddies. Cudi talks about his non-retirement, how “down to earth” Kanye really is, why he doesn’t do a lot of collaborations and shouts out Even Stevens and High School Musical.

BONUS — Mistah F.A.B. & Curren$y take a minute to talk to the TSS cameras. Read the rest of this entry »

In Defense of DOOM…

03.22.09 Written by David D.

When MF DOOM (“All Caps when you spell the man’s name” – Madvillainy) umm…dropped his album last week, I may have been the only member of the Crew that was jumping for joy.

There were comments about his “gibberish” and how difficult his albums are to listen to. At one point, a few people co-signed that Asher Roth was more enjoyable to Mr. Dumile. Instead of getting my Flea on and cursing you fools out, I decided to take a more rational approach. Read the rest of this entry »
