Here’s a preview. More can be found here. I’ll be watching if the wife doesn’t make me take her to see Star Trek.

I don’t know about you, but I miss mixtapes. The real mixtapes, that were really CDs! Ah. Life before Drama. Ha! No shots. Shout-out to my solider O and the Canal Street and LES connects. We put that work in. And I got the 66 CD binders to prove it.

Gotty woke up this morning and got his digitize on. Here’s all of the DJ Clue Grand Theft Audio mixtape series.

Hey, hit me if you got a mixtape request I might have to get my fingernails dirty again. Piracy Forever! For Promotional Use Only! Ha!

The oldest rap mag continues its rebirth. Read all about it. Keep print computers alive!

You Remind Me: Gotty

Take Heed: Robbie sat down with Wu Gambinos Rae and Ghost.

So apparently there are four samples cleared on Relapse and Amajanese got ’em for you.

Here’s a live version of the joint behind “We Made You.”

A lotta speculation was out that Cassie and/or someone from the Bad Boy camp allegedly leaked those naked flicks in order to create a buzz for the pretty girl who can’t seem to get her second album out. Well, if that’s the case, it ain’t working. According to Billboard, she’s moving a steady 2,000 downloads a week. Not good. Maybe once the video up top (get it?) is complete and released, things will improve. But this joint looks far from the classic Puffy promised us. (Looks like they took video down but Diddy said it. I can prove it. Ha!)

I was lookin’ for one thing and found this. Don’t know when and where this happened, but here’s Mos doin’ the big single from the Rawkus days. The Aretha Franklin sample is still one of my favorite breaks. Great job, Ayatollah.

Bonus: This looks like it’s from the same show. If so, it was six months ago, in Oaktown.

Think the very beginning of Eminem’s Shade 45 Prelapse special is missing here. But what is here is pretty interesting. Peace to the Daddy Reef gettin’ his O.G. Source Music Editor on. Listen up.

“Not Fruity Loops, bitch”

Moog and SP-1200 machines, mic pre-amp talk, yup this is some true producer geek shit as DJ Quik gives up some good tips. Hey young trackmasters, you’re all welcome!

A lot more revealing than this shit.

While promoting his upcoming Crips and Bloods documentary with the homie DJ Skee, Baron Davis reveals that your boy Jayceon Taylor is a butcher on that basketball court. No wonder he doesn”t get no burn in them NBA celebrity games. Ha!

“All them dudes that talk about retirement and shit—God bless ’em. I’m not one of them dudes. When you’re in this business as long as me, you’re gonna retire to do what? I love what I do so much, I don’t foresee retirement ever. I’m probably gonna be one of the first muthafuckas on some Quincy Jones shit. I want to be able to put out a Q’s Jook Joint when I’m 65 years old.”

I hear you Bussa-Bus. No beach chair for YN either. Ha!
