Khaleel – Hot Flames

In the same atmosphere that I posted yesterday the release dates of some couple Year Round Records 12inches I was trying to find a blogpost to this track by Khaleel. But I couldn’t found one, so why not make one? This track is produced by DJ Premier off course and is featured Texas youngster Khaleel signed to Year Round Records. His album “My MC Name Is…” should drop after Nick Javas album in a couple of years (first names on that list are Marco Polo, Panchi, Nick Javas and Showbiz). But the first single of Khaleel is about to drop on July 12th, 2010 with “Hot Flames” on the A-Side and on the B-Side we have a new unreleased track “Aalllllready”. I’m excited about that one!

“Hot Flames” was original named “You Can’t Tell Me Shit”, later on I’ve heard the name “Can’t Tell Me” but last year DJ Premier told us that the official name of the track is “Hot Flames”. First time I’ve heard the track was in like 2004, now 6 years later we’ll be able to buy it on vinyl! Enjoy:

Damu The Fudgemunk – How It Should Sound

Like you all know, I never expected this site to be so popular (and somehow commercial) on the internet. So from time to time I like to help personal friends to get some popularity because they deserve it! My people are like roaches, those who support the small artist, the artists who work underground whether not trying to get above.

But most of you real heads already know Damu The Fudgemunk. For me he’s simply top 3 of 2000s era hip hop producers. Getting ‘fame’ with Y Society and his popular clip of him playing beats at the park (still with diskettes) in 2008. Giving you a trip back to the 90s! That was not the end, numerous FREE instrumental albums were shared by him online. This man was so fucking real and got so many support behind him by us when he released an LP (on vinyl of course) it was soon out of print and prices ran high, crazy! And that in this decade!

So it’s an honor to promote this man in the further future. Tomorrow he is about to release a new 2 volumed instrumental LP “How It Should Sound”. I don’t know if they are already sold out (I think their are only a couple of copies left) but you can always try to get your copy here or here. I ordered mine on HHV.de were you get a free t shirt with an mpc on it extra. YAY!!

Here you can download the free promo EP.

Now I’m happy: next week I’m going to have the first DJ Premier Blog competition!! What to win?

A copy of “How It Should Sound Vol. 1 & 2”, but that’s not everything. The winner also get a copy of Y Society instrumental album “Travel At Your Own Pace” which is out of print!!! See you next week…

Joel Ortiz – Project Boy (Premier’s Bass Break Version) (Radio Rip)

It’s been some time when a track produced by DJ Premier got so hyped up by the hip hop media like this one, damn! So Premo made a new version of the beat, I think it’s called the “Break Version”. But I’m not quit sure though… Also look out for the remix of “Project Boy” featuring Noreaga… Enjoy:
