Finally I have it, it’s taken from the vinyl. But I’m still waiting on my copy of the single, it didn’t reached Europe yet. Maybe next week, and I still don’t have a message of YRR when the video will be released. Oh well, make sure you cop this one. Or at least “Tha Blaqprint” (coming in a couple of months) if you don’t have a vinyl player. But then you won’t have this song, because it’s a vinyl only track. Just promise me you support DJ Premier in a way, how it should be:
Blaq Poet – Too Strong
Laura Izibor Speak on DJ Premier Remix
Here I found a little conversation with Laura Izibor on the phone talking about DJ Premier. He made a pretty damn good rnb remix last year for the Irish soul artist, the remix is released in America on Atlantic as a vinyl single so you can still cop that!

PREEMISH: Convinced – Mass Appeal 2009 (Feat. Shawn Jackson, Tunji & El Prez)
I’m posting this quick because I’m a big fan of Shawn Jackson, also he should be on a Premo beat in my mind! And because this isn’t just a freestyle, but they made a new beat with the “Mass Appeal” sample. That is cool to do instead of just freestyle on a recycled beat, so I’m supporting this shit. Just a cool project, nuff said:

All Eyes On: Khaleel
If you ask one of my visitors who is Khaleel they will answer ‘It’s a cat that is signed to DJ Premier‘s label’. But who knows really Khaleel?! What’s his personality, what are his legends, … That’s what I was trying to find out. So I went in contact with this young Texas living hip hop artist who is working on his debut album since last years summer. Please not that this is an oversea interview, so I did that best what I could do. You will definitely know him better, and at the end you want that album so bad haha. You can still vote on him, his debut album is titled “My MC Name Is…“. Last year we didn’t see much of him, but this year it will all change so watch. Starting you will see him in the “Ain’t Nuttin’ Changed” video of Blaq Poet (whenever that will be released lol, three weeks ago?) and ending with his debut album hopefully! Enjoy:
DJ Premier Homage
This is a special one, a track that pays homage to DJ Premier. I can’t say he doesn’t deserve this, because he is one true legend. I’m wondering if he would play it on LiveFromHQ, props to Phonte for the hook up who is actually also on the track together with Royce da 5’9″ and Stat Quo. DJ Premier didn’t produce this track, but Focus did! He did some nice productions is the past, but this one is real dope too. It’s for his new serie where he is going to make more homages. Haha, a very nice effort of these guys! Now I want to see Phonte on a Premo production!! Enjoy the homage to DJ Premier, who is know for 20 years(!) in the game, started with Gang Starr in 1989, congrats:

No new track, no guests but it was a tight show. A lot of bullshit was talking haha, Tha Blaqprint is coming in a few months DJ Premier said. Also Big Shug is already started working on his next album, did two new joints (not with Premo yet). Next week it will be DJ Eclipse because Preem will be to the superbowl. Big shout to the internet:

I Think “American Black Man” is Coming
Loool, I’m almost ashamed to post this, but I think “American Black Man” is finally getting released this season. Bumpy released some days ago a new song called “Yes You Can” with the tags “American Black Man coming soon…”. I really hope so! The album of the Gang Starr Foundation member will contain productions by Alchemist, Pete Rock, DJ Premier and himself. The album was first announced to be released the first quarter of 2005. Also he got an album made in three days with KRS-One that also should be released anytime, the productions are from Freddie Foxxx himself. Besides that he is also doing an album fully produced by DJ Premier with old and new joints. And he even said he was going to do a full album with Pete Rock if he could.
(This was the front of the album in 2005…)
Track with Premo that should be on it:
- The Life
- Mic & Gun
- Freddie Blassey
- My Thoughts
Some smaller news: you can pre-order House of Repz vls at ughh.com, they are also going to release an album this year called “The 5ive Facez of Death“. Surprise surprise, also Natural Elements is getting ready to release an album haha (this got nothing to do with DJ Premier). For those who know them will be glad to hear this! And Royce da 5’9″ “Street Hop” is coming 21/04 on M.I.C/One Records, new video “Part of Me” will drop in a couple of days.
MoSS Signed to Works of Mart
Got something fresh for y’all, a 40mins interview with DJ Premier about a lot of items. Big shout to the people of Thermal Soundwaves for this one. It’s recorded in January so this headline is fresh. Works of Mart, if you read the credits, DJ Premier always produced for Works of Mart. It’s a small label project of DJ Premier where he signes producers (since recently), first name is MoSS. Producer from Canada.
Other then that DJ Premier talks about Year Round Records, Mass Appeal, DWYCK, Buckshot Lefonque, Biggie, Blaq Poet and how to get in touch with his management. They also talks about Superproducer Solar because he was getting aggressive some months ago when they did an interview with Guru because there was too much talk about Gang Starr, and when I heard that interview, oeeeew, this producer threats Guru as a child (he actually interrupt Guru several times with a mad voice how the deal is) haha. I think I finally understand why Guru and Premier are not together anymore… But at least he is a superproducer (now you know my opion).
Here you have the interview with DJ Premier:
PREEMISH: Brooke Russell – No More
Long time I posted a beat with a close DJ Premier sound, this one is a rnb track by Brooke Rusell. She is a singster from USA, but used to live in Germany (or still lives there). She only made one album in 1999. With help from various german artists, like DJ Desue. If you don’t know him, he used to be one of the best German hip hop producer. But this one is a more unkown production of him, but you will hear how hot it is:
Brooke Russell – No More (Prod. by DJ Desue)
Got this joint from my man wiktor!
