I GOTTA BOW DOWN TO ROB FRANCISCO FOR BEING ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING AND SICK ARTISTS IN THE REAL DEAL AMERICAN UNDERGROUND. KNOWN FOR PROJECTS LIKE RAP GROUP RUBBED RAW (WITH DJ DOG DICK) AND ANGEL DUST (POWER ELECTRONICS COVERS OF MASTER P), ROB IS A RAGER LIFER AND THE STYLES RUN DEEP.
M AX NOI MACH IS I THINK FRANCISCO’S LONGEST RUNNING PROJECT AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE NOISE ACTS. A SICH MIX OF BLOWN OUT GABBA AND POWER ELECTRONICS AND TRULY DEVASTATING LIVE. I REMEMBER PLAYING WITH M AX NOI MACH IN WINTER 2K4 AND BEING BLOWN AWAY BY THE INTENSITY OF IT ALL.
CHECK OUT HIS WEBSITE AND FUCKING JUST GET DEEP IN THE ZONE. THE GREATEST LIVING AMERICAN POET NO DOUBT BABY! WHEN YOU WANT THE TRUE SICKNESS, ROB FRANCISCO IS A NAME YOU CAN TRUST.
TODAY I DID AN INTERVIEW WITH VICE MAGAZINE ABOUT MY NEW LABEL THUNDER ZONE ENT. AND ALSO THE INDIEGOGO I AM RUNNING TO RAISE MONEY FOR MY NEW ENERGY DRINK. I TRIED TO BREAK DOWN THE SAGA AND EXPLAIN EXACTLY WHERE I AM COMING FROM WITH THIS SHIT. U CAN READ IT RIGHT HERE. THANKS GO OUT TO LIZ ARMSTRONG AND VICE.
FINALLY AFTER A VERY LONG WAIT, IT HAS ARRIVED. THE MONTH LONG FUNDRAISING EXTRAVAGANZA FOR THUNDER ZONE ENERGY. THIS ALSO SERVES AS A PRE-ORDER FOR MY NEW RECORD “I DON’T WANNA GO INTO THE DARKNESS” WHICH COMES OUT AS A CO-VENTURE BETWEEN MY OWN LABEL THUNDER ZONE AND JEFF THE BROTHERHOOD‘S INFINITY CAT RECORDS. GNAR TAPES AND SHIT FROM PORTLAND ARE PUTTING OUT THE CASSETTES.
I’M REALLY SIKED AND YOU SHOULD BE TOO! THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF A BIGGER MOVEMENT AND A NEW ERA IN THE NEVERENDING JOURNEYMAN SAGA THAT IS JUICEBOXXX. BY DONATING YOU ARE HELPING PUSH THE GAME INTO A NEW ZONE FOR 2K12 AND BEYOND. THINGS MIGHT BE FUCKED UP MAN BUT THERE ARE NO RULES AND IT’S NOW OR NEVER. 33 DAYS! LET’S GO!
TONIGHT IN LOS ANGELES I PERFORM ON A BILL ALONGSIDE VIRAL VIDEO NERD FREAKOUT HERO KEITH APICARY AT THE NERDIST THEATER/MELTDOWN COMICS SUPERPLEX. SERIOUSLY THIS SHOULD BE ONE FOR THE AGES.
KEITH IS CURRENTLY DEVELOPING A SHOW FOR ADULT SWIM, I’M SIKED THAT HE ASKED ME TO ROCK AND ROLL WITH HIM FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY. ALSO ON THE BILL IS 8 BIT WEAPON. TICKETS ARE ALMOST SOLD OUT, GET YOURS HERE.
AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME, BMORE RAGERS DOPE BODY ARE POINT BLANK ONE OF THE SICKEST AND MOST FORWARD THINKING BANDS IN ROCK. ECSTATIC EAST COAST NOISE WITH A BANGING FUNK METAL LEAN AND A REAL CLASSIC ROCK FEEL, DOPE BODY ARE TAKING IT THERE WITH ABSOLUTELY NO APOLOGIES.
WEIRD MIRROR IS A NEW TRACK OFF OF THEIR UPCOMING DRAG CITY RECORD “NATURAL HISTORY” AND WHAT CAN I SAY MAN? IT IS SICK. CHECK IT OUT AT PITCHFORK HERE. DOPE BODY IS RECOMMENDED FOR FANS OF THE CHI PEPS, THIN LIZZY AND LIGHTNING BOLT.
I THINK I FIRST MET LE1F SOMETIME AROUND 2008, MAYBE EVEN WHILE GETTING A FALAFEL AT OASIS IN BROOKLYN? SOMETIMES MY EXACT MEMORY ESCAPES ME. EITHER WAY, HE IS A GREAT PERSON AND RAPPER/PRODUCER WHO HAS SET UP SOME LEGENDARY JUICEBOXXX WESLEYAN RAGERS IN THE PAST AND PRODUCED TRAX FOR THE LIKES OF DAS RACIST AND SPANK ROCK.
LE1F HAS A NEW RAP MIXTAPE OUT CALLED “DARK YORK” AND IT IS FUCKING BLAZING. A COMBO OF SELF-PRODUCED CUTS AND COLLABOS WITH HEADS LIKE NGUZUNGUZU AND BOODY, IT DISPLAYS A MASTERY OF IT’S INFLUENCES AND OF COURSE, SICK RAPPING.
JUMPING BETWEEN STYLES BUT ALL ROOTED IN FUTURISTIC NEW YORK RAP, I CAN’T RECOMMEND THIS HIGHLY ENOUGH FOR ALL YOU KIDS OUT THERE TRYING TO GET LOOSE TO SOME NEXT LEVEL PARTY MUSIC. STREAM THAT SHIT OVER AT THE FADER RIGHT HERE. GO!
DREAM TEAM COLLABO RIGHT HERE PEOPLE! BMORE HEAVYWEIGHT PUNK ROCKER ED SCHRADER GETS REMIXED BY THE 1NE AND ONLY SCHWARZ AND IF THAT’S NOT ENOUGH, WE GOT BAY AREA TEENAGE HERO ISSUE IN THE MIX, RAPPING.
I LIKE TO THINK OF THIS REMIX AS “A MEETING OF THE MINDS”
ENJOY
DEATH GRIPS HAVE BEEN EVERYWHERE RECENTLY AND WITH GOOD REASON. I’M REALLY SIKED TO SEE SOME NEW AMERICAN MUSIC THAT BREAKS THE RULES AND FOLLOWS IT’S OWN PATH. I’M NOT GOING TO LIE, I FEEL SOME SERIOUS KINSHIP WITH THE SPIRIT OF WHAT DEATH GRIPS ARE TRYING TO DO.
AGGRO RAP WITH DEBTS TO A LOT OF OTHER SICK SHIT, THESE GUYS HAVE THE HISTORY TO BACK IT UP AND ARE MOVING FAST INTO THE FUTURE. THEIR NEW RECORD IS CALLED “MONEY STORE” AND IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME. FOR FANS OF: LIL JON, BIG BLACK, ROLL DEEP CREW, PUBLIC ENEMY, THE BUG, ZZ POT, THREE 6 MAFIA.
THIS FRIDAY IN LOS ANGELES I PERFORM LIVE AT THE JESSE MILLER TALK SHOW AT THE IMPROV COMEDY LAB. JESSE MILLER IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE RAGERS, I AM SIKED AND HONORED TO THROW DOWN. KYLE H MABSON WILL BE PLAYING GUITAR WITH ME FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY! GET READY 2 GET SIK WIT IT. MORE INFO HERE.
IT MIGHT SEEM OLD FASHIONED BUT I STILL LOVE TO LISTEN TO THE RADIO. BEING ON TOUR DRIVING TRYING TO FIND THE SICK STATION WITH THE LIVE MIX SHOW IS A TRADITION THAT I FEEL LIKE I’VE KNOWN MY WHOLE LIFE. IN THAT SPIRIT, NOZ OF FAMOUS RAP BLOG COCAINE BLUNTS RECENTLY POSTED A RADIO RIP OF DIAMOND KUTS ON POWER 99 IN PHILLY.
FOUR HOURS OF NEW AMERICAN MUSIC INSANITY COVERING ALL THE BASES. FROM THAT NEW SCHOOL EAST COAST CLUB SOUND TO BOUNCE MUSIC TO UPFRONT RAP, DIAMOND KUTS PLAYS AN AMAZING VARIETY THAT TRANSCENDS REGIONALISM BUT STILL FEELS VERY “EAST COAST”. THE MIXING STYLE IS AGGRESSIVE AND THE AIRHORNS ARE ROCK AND ROLLING. WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?
I HAVEN’T BEEN ON THE ROAD IN A BIT SO LISTENING TO THIS PUT ME BACK IN THAT ZONE. I KNOW YOU CAN STREAM THIS STUFF BUT I THINK IT IS GOOD SOMEONE OUT THERE IS ARCHIVING IT SO FANS LIKE MYSELF CAN LISTEN TO IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND GET SIKED.
