’11 Best Beats: #2 Just Blaze “Lord Knows”

It’s tough to judge this guy because he’s actually my friend but thankfully the hip-hop nation agrees—Justin Smith is one bad muthafucka behind the boards.

Saigon Performs At SoHo Apple Store

No recording allowed? Sorry Apple, it was an intimate setting but I still got work to do. Sai Giddy, Just Blaze and I go back like Bron Bron’s hairline.
