Impulss n' Bazooka Joe - Bronx, New Orleans Respect Where It Started

A concept album honoring those New Orleans musicians and NY Hip Hoppers who came before us in NY and in NO to deliver us the art forms that people benefit so much from today.

I just got back from the release party festivities in NOLA and the feedback and support for this project out there is incredible, now it's available to everyone, digital downloads and phycical CD's.

Soon to be available on Itunes, Amazon, Emusic etc...but for now stream or purchase it direct from Bancamp.


Thanks to all the guests, DJ's and anyone else that had a hand in making this album, we are very proud of this project and worked hard on it for 2 years, so please show some love.

Peace

Pressure Busts Pipes - OUT NOW

“Pressure Busts Pipes” is a conceptual mixtape/album project I put together to showcase some of my production. The project came about after becoming frustrated with the traditional beat shopping process and trying to find a more creative way to showcase my beat-making skills and prove to myself (if no one else) that I could produce an album all the way through, song for song, with a cohesive sound and a cinematic concept that is consistent with the sound of the albums I came up on as a native NY 90’s Hip-Hopper and in line with the music I have supported throughout my 15+ years as a DJ.

A few of the songs are straight accapellas I found on the web or in my record collection, but most of them were exclusively sent to me by the artists themselves with a green light to remix and 2 or 3 are original studio recordings. The goal with everything I do is to craft a sonic experience more than just a mixtape or remixing a few songs, so I hope you download the whole thing and listen from start to finish as it was intended.

This project took over a year to make and I got blessed by a lot of good people in various ways while making it so I have to say thanks to my wife and son 1st and foremost (the foundation), my mother (R.I.P.), Tom & Corey, Dres of Black Sheep, X-Ray the Mindbenda, D-Smooth & Urbansoul Music Group, AG of D.I.T.C., 950 Plus, Jay Bee, King Phaze, Julien Frank, Nasty North, Finsta, Prospek, Skratchmo, Too Kool Tony, Lionel Splifkin, Hip Hop Philosophy, Nasty North, C-Rayz Walz, , Uppanotch, K.I.M. Studios, The Blue Room, Tom Delay and BrakeFast Records, Dirt Platoon and my man Impulss …look out for our collab album next...Peace

Y-O

The Silver Album - (Jay-Z vs RJD2)

Finally here! This is one of my most successful projects for obvious reasons, but I am really proud of this one. Not much to say, I had an idea during the whole Jay-Z Black album remix craze and turned it into what many think is one of the best of the crop which is saying a lot because there were some good ones. I was just a big fan of RJ at the time and have always had a knack for matching accapellas well with other beats, plus I had already done the PSA remix for a previous mix CD before the Black album remixes started coming out and thought what if I just continued further with that idea and this is what came out...

02 - December 4th (Cannibal Ox - 'The F Word remix')
03 - What More Can I Say (Soul Position - 'Right Place, Wrong Time')

Come out to party with the Monsta Island Czars as the crew reunites and gets ready to record a new album fresh for 2011. On Friday October 29th 2010 We present to you the Monsta Mash Halloween party at The BK Loft 300 Douglass street Brooklyn NY. Performing live the Monsta Island Czars and uppanotch with special guest GYP with Bazooka Joe and X-Ray on the wheels of steel for those of you not familiar with M.I.C. here’s a snip it from a review of their album “ESCAPE FORM MONSTA ISLAND”

MF Doom has mastered the art of the concept album and has become one of the most creative and hard-working artists in hip-hop today. Releasing album after album under different names, MF Doom has joined forces with MF Grimm and more to create Monsta Island Czars aka M.I.C. Originally Zev Love-X of the group KMD, MF Doom has grown to become one of hip-hop’s most enigmatic emcees. His very good friend and fellow emcee, MF Grimm, was locked up during recording and was unable to participate in the project (even though he was the man who had the idea that all of them should team up.) Monsta Island Czars is a collection of hungry underground emcees who have traded their usual names for monsters from old science fiction movies. MF Doom is King Ghidra. MF Grimm is Jet Jaguar. KD (aka Kwite Def) is Kamackeris. X-ray is King Caesar. The others (Megalon, Kong, Rodan, Spiga, and Gigan) all keep their original names because they started out as members. With production handled by X-Ray (King Caesar) and MF Doom (King Ghidra), the concept album Escape From Monsta Island is 20 tracks of hardcore, underground, hungry, creative hip-hop. Sometimes, the deliveries are lightning-fast while others just have that straight hunger. Both on-beat and off-beat, these emcees attack your brain just like prehistoric monsters feeding on major cities.


For those of you not familiar with UPPANOTCH The Time is Now

Danon and Hosannah combine science with sociology to bring the caliber of hip hop UPPANOTCH. Danon is a Queens native with a sharp tongue capable of decimating a speaker. You can feel his life experience in his rhymes, and he’s gifted in everything from the art of story telling to straight lyrical spitfire: "could take six bars, make it an anthem- F the SOURCE I want my face on the moon, like Ralph Kramden- these ain’t delusions of grandeur- hat tilted like black panthers, the flow is chemotherapy- guess the beat is the cancer." Hosannah was born in England , and came to New York in ’83. Raised by hip hop, the kid is slick with the gift. The word play is ridiculous- pay attention, you might miss su’m Hosannah finds a way to hold the track hostage- he’d rather surround it than be on top of it: "Link subjects through rough text- pen a curse on a scroll and have the verse plaguing listeners I provide the spirit through words that grasps parishioners and make em give ten percent of they folds to buy innocence." Danon and Hosannah use different rhyme style and technique to touch your eardrums. Pay close attention to their talent on the debut album, entitled: NO GREATER LOVE and the forthcoming LP, ELEVEN.

Live From the 90 Minute Era PT. 2

Here it is "Live From The 90 Minute Era Part 2" featuring an hour and a half of new joints, fresh for 2010..It wasn't easy, but I managed to find 31 dope new joints with real MC's over real Hip-Hop beats and don't feature Drake, J Cole, Wocka Flocka, or Nicki Minaj...I come from an era where we relied on the ears and guidance of other DJ's to show us the way, nowadays most DJ's are getting by on played out 90's era classics and the mixtape game has become a marketing tool for a corny new artist or some product sponsorship that has nothing to do with a DJ who keeps his/her ear to the street for the real shit and plays the records radio won't or haven't heard yet.

So here are some joints for your truck, ipod, cd player, tape deck, usb 8-track whatever..new heat from the likes of Roc Marciano, Styles P, Joell Ortiz, Black Sheep, Beatnuts, Raekwon, Ras Kass, Canibus...plus some exclusives from Finsta Bundy, EL Da Sensei, Dr. Oop, and a real exclusive joint off my upcoming album with one of New Orleans' finest, Impulss. Last but not least I got some up and coming hungry dudes on there like Mr. Probz, Phace, Daniel Joseph, D.O.N., Conflict, Righteous Da Goddess, and Prince Po's new artist D-Stong...if you like what you hear google it, go see a show, buy a song off itunes...something...support is necessary in this day and age...Peace.
