Here you have DJ Premier talking about “Tha Blaqprint” album for Blaq Poet last night on “The Halftime Show” with DJ Eclips:
DJ Premier Set on the The Halftime Show
WNYU‘s long-running rap broadcast “The Halftime Show” celebrates its eleventh anniversary tonight: unlike the emcee extravaganza last year host with the most DJ Eclipse will be joined by DJs only, specifically DJ Premier, Evil Dee & Mr Walt, A-Trak, Tony Touch and JS-1. Here you have Preems part, enjoy:
Capone-N-Noreaga – Grand Royal
Today the full (unmastered) version of Capone-N-Noreaga “Grand Royal” track leaked from their album “Channel 10“. Like we all know produced by DJ Premier, for more info: I posted the snippet last week. This track is recorded last year and then Preem said it was a rejected Rakim beat!
Bumpy Knuckles – Amerikkkan Black Man
Last we heard a new Bumpy Knuckles DJ Premier collabo was back in 2006, that’s three years ago!! Too long, so I decided to ask on Freddie’s radio show if he has some exclusive Premo shit. And this is what I could record, but he has more, he has some more of this… This track is probably recorded in 2006/07 for his upcoming album “American Black Man“, the song is also called “Amerikkkan Black Man“. So enjoy and hopefully we can hear more in the future, he and Preem are the original O.G.’s!! FONKY!

Grand Royal Snippet
Oh no, the new tracks are floating like my dice on ice. Remember when I said DJ Premier recorded in the studio a track with Capone-N-Noreaga last year for their upcoming album? That track was first called “Invincible Pt. II” but Premo changed it too “Grand Royal“. I was waiting on this track, and now their is a snippet avaible (off “Channel 10“, coming march 17th):

Illmatic 15th Anniversary
One of hip hop most notable albums was released 15 years ago, enough reasons to have a reunion with the creators of this masterpiece. Thanks to the latest issue of XXL Magazine we have this nice read about the situation of every track on the album. I had a little fun with copy past, I copied all the thoughts on the DJ Premier produced tracks for y’all, enjoy:

Blaq Poet – Rap Addiction
NEW PREMO FIRE YES SIR, first of all: I listen to LiveFromHQ now for two months without any new joints, I couldn’t listen for one time and BAM, new DJ Premier song. Second, I get almost fifty mails of people who want to hear the joint as quick as possible, didn’t knew this blog was that famous! Even have a couple aggressive mails too looool. But like I promised, I have it!
And what can I say, the song is fire. The sample is hardcore as usual with three hardcore rappers: Blaq Poet, Lil’ Fame and Shabeeno (of NYGz). Hip Hop will have his eyes open when “Tha Blaqprint” drops, that’s for sure now. Enjoy, DJPremierBlog, how we always do it I guess, shout out to DJ Premier:
