Digable Planets



Digable Planets are one of the most revered golden era hip hop groups. Butterfly and Ladybug Mecca have amazing voices for hip hop, Doodlebug is dope too, but for me the other two really stand out.
3 albums. Check them out.


Reachin'(A New Refutation of Time and Space) (1993)
Blowout Comb (1994)
Beyond the Spectrum: the Creamspy Chronicles (2005)

Batsauce - Summertime

This came out during the summer. I missed it. Oddly though I downloaded his wifes album about the time this came out, Lady Daisey, soul type stuff. Anyway, these beats are awesome, some dope rhymes on some of them too... all sampled from different covers of Gershwins classic 'Summertime' I believe

Swinging Addis

Chabuca Granda y Oscar Aviles - Diologando (1968)

So Oscar Aviles is generally regarded as the finest Peruvian guitarist... he really is f*ckin' awesome... and Chabuca Granda is also a wonderful Peruvian singer (and I think guitarist too)... this is an album they both did together...
I've purchased a couple records by each on my trip to Peru just now and they are really excellent...
I'm tired as shit now so I'm not going to bother finding a video, but I'll probably put one up at some point when I get to it...
check it out dudes and dudettes... Peace from Lima, Peru.

Javelin - Jamz and Jemz (2009)

So I very recently happened upon the band Javelin while browsing through the Luaka Bop artist roster, I read what they do and was like SHIEEET I'm all over this. YUP, going to see them next week in Toronto, pretty excited. Here is a video that shows what they are all about and at the beginning is playing their hit track 'Vibrationz'

C Rayz Walz - Who The Fuck Are You?

Pretty sure this is the latest C Rayz Walz album, I think its from 09, honestly don't care enough to check.
I've been listening to this album alot lately. I never really used to listen to C Rayz but damn dude can really rip a microphone, this album got lots of banging beats, clever ryhmes, dope features, and almost every track goes hard.

I really love the track "I Love New York", that chorus is stuck in my head hardcore.
Check it sons and daughters.

Here is the only music video I can find from the album...

Cannibal Ox



Ahh I love Cannibal Ox. The Cold Vein is for me, one of the best hip hop albums of all time. It is most certainly one of my favorites. Vast Aire and Vordul Mega are just on some other world stuff... and it is the best of all Def Jux abstract El-P production that I've ever heard. Vast really fits on alot of those beats, the styles blow my mind on this album.

Flying Lotus - Parisian Goldfish

Check the video for the Flying Lotus track Parisian Goldfish. The video has been banned from nearly all video hosting sites on the internet due to its almost pornographic nature.
It is indeed quite racy and is basically porn... nevertheless I really enjoyed the video
Although I couldn't figure out how to embed it check out the link below.

Jorge Ben - A Tabua de Esmeralda (1974)



^^ Not from '72 but whatever.
This album is soooooo good. Another Brasilian gem. Highly rated... generally regarded as Jorge Ben's seminal work... It really is beautiful.

Don't stop Get it Get it

Novos Baianos - Acabou Chorare



Album download is better sound quality obviously...
This is listed somewhere as the top Brasilian album of all time, I think from Rolling Stone or something... It is indeed amazing...


Get it and Daaance

Bullfrog - Bullfrog (2001)



This is Kid Koala with a full band... and MC Blurum 13 on some tracks.
Well really the point of downloading this album in my opinion would be to GROOVE fucking hard to the track Reverse Psychology, but I can't find a video anywhere, so just please download this and listen to that track, trust me.


Whaaaattttupppp?!?!
