I’ve heard one with some guy named BoB is coming…
Exclusive: New DJ Premier Beat “Dots” [CDQ]
A new Premo beat!! Some may already heard it on LiveFromHQ, but now we have it in CDQ. It’s featured on DJ Premier next instrumental LP “Beats That Collected Dust Vol. 2” (coming January 21, pre order here) but you can already hear it on the Def Jam Rapstar game whom Premo sold three beats to so you can freestyle over it, very fun game and it supports Preem so you should support it too haha. This is the extra DLC beat you can buy for 2 dollars… But I bring you the cdq:
DJ Premier – Dots [CDQ]
Damn, all those exclusives here this week… lets make some more shall we, not really DJ Premier directed but why not? Now that I’ve got my hands on it… And I’ve met Just Blaze before with Alchemist (thanks to Premo ofc), he looks to Premo the same way like I do lol. Here’s the Just Blaze beat he sold Def Jam Rapstar called “8 Bit”, Jay Z rejected! (nah nah, just kidding (I think)):
Just Blaze – 8 Bit [CDQ]
And for the commercial dudes under us, the beat Cool & Dre sold to Def Jam Rapstar named “Public Enemy”, can you hear The Game or Ja Rule on it? Fck Yeah! Enjoy:

And just to let you know, in the game you have more unreleased goodies by 9th Wonder… Support!
Jeru the Damaja – Hot 97 Promo (Radio Rip) (10 Crack Commandments Original)
More ULTRA rare shit. Never ripped before, 90s jewel… Rumors say this turned on the beef between Gang Starr & Jeru the Damaja, but that’s false. Here’s DJ Premier explaining what’s behind the “10 Crack Commandments” beat…
That was actually a promo that me and Jeru did for Angie Martinez on Hot 97. Back then she did a show called the “Hot 5 at 9″ where she would play the top 5 records at 9 o’clock. If you listen to the scratches, before I added “ten” later on when Biggie got it, I just keep going to five right after the beat drops because it was for the top 5 at 9. Puffy was guest hosting the show and when he heard the promo he was like “what the hell, who did this?” and Angie told him I did it. So he goes live on the radio like “yo Premier, if you’re out there, call me.” One of my homeboys paged me and told me that Puffy was on the radio telling me to call him. I turn on Hot 97 and right before I was about to turn the dial off, I hear “Premier, Premier, please call me if you hear me on the radio.” He told me he wanted to buy the promo. I told Jeru and he was like “yo, it’s hip hop. No big deal.” So I sold it to him and Biggie already had a concept, he wanted to call it “Ten Crack Commandments.” I took the “Ten” from a spaceship count down when they go “ten, nine, eight, seven…” And Biggie just rapped over it right there.
Thank you DJ Premier for this great gift…
DJPremierBlog.com got more exclusive coming this week and next week :P.
THE MYTH IS OVER: Madonna – Don’t Tell Me (DJ Premier Unreleased Break Mix) (Radio Rip)
Another DJ Premier myth is totally vanished folks!! First we had the Nas Is Like sample myth cleared, now this “Don’t Tell Me” by Madonna remixed by DJ Premier is revealed…
Here’s a short timeline for y’all;
– First we had the countless rumors of DJ Premier remix a Madonna song. Some said it was the track “Don’t Tell Me”.
– Then we had some people claiming they had it… Fake…
– Then we had this message from a German Madonna fan site that the Don’t Tell Me Remix by DJ Premier will be pressed on a colored wax in Germany…
– Finally I could ask Premier himself if it’s true about the “Don’t Tell Me” remix. His reply was that there are 2 versions remixed by him send to Madonna. But she didn’t liked it so it never saw the light of day.
– Now we have DJ Premier spinning one version of it…
Enjoy my friends, DJ Premier = GOAT once again:
Pfff… this is my first love to do this blog 😀 I CAN FEEL THAT BASSLINE. Shout out to D-Stroy and Crazy Legs too!
So it does exists… Hmmm. CDQ prolly never coming out though, I remember him saying he doesn’t have the rights to release the vocals. Maybe Timbaland can ask Madonna, or Pharell.

Last year note from DJ Premier himself:
I judge my list based on dope beats, dope rhymes, scratchin’ and cutting, creativity, uniqueness, originality, and overall packaging of the product’s integrity. I don’t care if you sold a million copies, that does not make it dope. I went through more than 60 LP’s released in ’09 on major and indie labels over and over to get it as close as i possible could to being satisfied with the list so here it is along with the list.
