Check out the latest video from New North alumni, Shad K, and his album “The Old Prince” which dropped year and was definitely one of the best Canadian albums to be released.Hot Dog Garbage production house and Shad combine to re-create everyone’s favourite opening theme from Will Smith’s Fresh Prince Of Bel Air with incredible detail. It’s dope to see Shad paying homage to classic material we all grew up on, while putting his own spin on it.

Who?! Jane Doe! Who?! Jaaane Dooeee! Remember her from Blackstar’s “Twice Inna Lifetime” or perhaps Tribe’s “Rock Rock Y’all”? I happened to notice that some of my fave blogs were posting joints from her unreleased album courtesy of producer 88 Keys (who produced the LP), so I thought I’d hook yall up with the whole thing.
Don’t be mad at me, 88, for the record, this LP has been out there (the net) since 2003, you just have to know where to look.

Had to post this the minute I saw it, official tracklisting from the source himself. Definitely been anticipating this since the last time Jake came through the show and announced this was on the way. The lineup on paper looks like a hip-hop fantasy league where Jake got 4th pick (right in the middle… if you been in one, you know its a good look). If you’re not familiar with the body of work, catch up. Read the rest of this entry »

“How did World Domination come about?
Roc Marciano: Actually, I don’t know how it got out like that, honestly. I know we had a collective couple of songs that was…’cos we was workin’ outta Green Street studios before they had shut down. We was workin’ out of there a lot with Pete, so I think that was just to throw something out. Cats had been asking and we had had a lot of stuff that we had did in there, so we just put together that. But as far as how it got out there? Out and about? I didn’t put it out, so I don’t know how it got out there like that.”
Little info from the copy that I got of this mixtape:
“This was advertised on hiphopsite.com for less than one day and it sold out.

I don’t normally read too many interviews, but I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to catch up on one of my favourite MCs at the moment! Roc Marciano has been killing joints ever since he first blessed “Petestrumentals” (think “Cake” and “Nothin’ Lesser”) and appropriately we have been killing everything that has dropped, from the The UN LP, to his solo mixtape.
Anyways, everything you need to know about this man can be found in his very thorough Unkut interview HERE!
Also, check out my latest entry of “Unlocking The Vault” for that rare “World Domination” mixtape featuring several unreleased joints!

Spotted over @ 2DB, it’s the unreleased footage of Ghostface’s cameo in Iron Man. I have still yet to the see the movie, but I’ve heard good reviews, so I’ll definitely get around to it. I can see why they cut this scene out of the movie, as it doesn’t add much value, but it’s still a shame that Ghost’s cameo was limited to only 2 sentences.

Can’t stop, won’t stop… take that, take that. Another LP that never saw the light of day due to label complications. The quality once again not the greatest, which is a bit of a tease considering some of the joints are bangin’. My picks are “Autobiography”, “Tools Of The Trade”, “M.N.C.B”, the Pete Rock joint, and “Understand”. I guess this is for the hardcore BCC heads, which I know T Dot is a breeding ground for.

Yezzzir, installment #2 of Unlocking The Vault! This week, I got Elzhi’s unreleased album that was supposed to come out on Capitol Records around the 2000-2002 era. The quality of the rip is not great because it is unmastered and the source CD actually had some skips on it, but the quality of the music is phenomenal! My favourite joints are “Walk Down Memory Lane”, “Palm Trees, Passion Fruit (Prod. J Dilla)”, “Feel This (feat. Dwele)”, and “Not Born To Lose”. If this ever comes out, go out and cop it to support Elzhi and keep real hip-hop alive.
Also, look out for Elzhi’s new project “The Prologue” on July 29th, which will feature the songs leaked on the “Euro Pass” mixtape, as well as even more new material! I personally can’t wait! For a sample of what to expect, check out our show archives, as we featured the “Euro Pass” mixtape a few weeks ago!

Looks like The Meaning of Dope aren’t the only ones with rare footage. Thanks to P for bringing this to light.
Jungle Sciene was my second DJ crew I formed with DJ Precise and Kev Dre back in 1994, we did mixtapes and the second version of the Real Freq show when it was CHRY 105.5 FM Thursday mornings. A couple of quick facts about Jungle Science, DJ Precise was part of Elemental along with G-Knight who blessed Da Grassroots classic “Drama”, we were one of the original mixtape crews, we did background mixes for Rap City back in the day, and we did what was possibly the first “legal” mix CD “It’s All Good”, which I don’t have a copy of, if you got one, can you rip it for me?
Anyway here’s a clip of an appearance on MuchMusic’s RapCity, with Oliver! Remember that guy? Yes, yes I did the boggle.
