“Somehow, Someway…”

Ever since the Jay and Beans fiasco broke the other day, I’ve managed to keep my opinions to myself…at least on the blogging front. Reason being because I honestly found myself on the fence. To Jay’s credit, Beans did have a record label, a promising crew, a clothing line and his...

The iPod Shuffle - “Smartz”

With only the second entry in this iPod Shuffle thing (did you see the first?), I don’t want to spoil you. I have no intentions of writing a piece to accompany every song that we post with this. Actually, the not writing aspect was the whole draw for me. Give you a dope song & K.I.M. With...

“Featuring Bun B…”

Just about every post I create takes a circuitous route. Listening to Scarface’s Greatest Features led me to go back & check DJ Keyz’s Scarred For Life mixtape from a few years back and ended up back @ Get Screwed Up, the Keyz created mixtape of all Bun features & guest appearances....

“Spacious Thoughts” - Review Of N.A.S.A.’s The Spirit Of Apollo

Unless you’re from the Left Coast or a card-carrying Hip-Hop nerd, you probably haven’t heard of the questionably named N.A.S.A, a collaborative effort between Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon. But if most Hip-Hop fans don’t recognize these two, their musical peers clearly respect their talents....

Wire Tap: If Rappers Were Characters From The Wire

Words By Jesse H. It’s been a year and I still miss The Wire and all its characters. We said our final goodbyes in 2008 but recent endless viewings of the DVD box set had me feeling sentimental and inspired. It’s the “Who would play me in a movie?” game further realized and repurposed,...

Pretty much NSFW. Kareem or anybody here familiar with how they simulate sex scenes?

“Don’t Drink 8-Ball, Cuz St. Ides’ Is Givin’ Ends…”

While slangin’ bean pies and St. Ides in the same sentences ultimately just leads to bruised egos, the premium malt liquor’s commercial impact on hardcore Hip-Hop is nothing to chastise. Albums like Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers, Reasonable Doubt, and We Can’t Be Stopped may be considered...

TWTW: ‘Twas The Week Before Christmas

‘Twas the week before Christmas and all through the site. Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse… actually “Old School Mouse” was stirring, along with Joell.

“Still Here” - Review Of Scarface’s Emeritus

The Alpha and Omega philosophy are one of life’s classic certainties. All things, whether good or evil will eventually cease to exist. Period. But who would’ve thought from his humble beginnings as a Geto Boy, that the rapper Scarface would be closing out his career after making “country...

Scarface - Emeritus Album Sampler

This has been floating around for a minute but I guess we neglected to share it. Truthfully, I just want any old reason to throw up that cover & get myself amped up even more for this release.

DJ Whoo Kid & Cookin’ Soul - Night Of The Living Dead

Anytime you resurrect Frank White, you better come correct. The idea of mixing those notoriously sinister verses with classic horror scores does seem promising though.
