NEW MUSIC VIDEO FROM LOS ANGELES RAP GROUP CLIPPING, WHICH FEATURES JONATHAN SNIPES FROM THE LEGENDARY CAPTAIN AHAB, WILLIAM HUTSON FROM RALE AND RAPPER DAVEED DIGGS. I PLAYED WITH THESE GUYS LAST YEAR AT THE SMELL IN LA AND IT WAS SICK!

THEIR NEW RECORD “MIDCITY” UPS THE GAME AND I’M EXCITED TO SEE WHERE THINGS GO NEXT. BLOWN OUT BEATS FROM THE STREET AND A REAL ATTITUDE, THESE GUYS REMIND ME OF VINTAGE ERA DJ DOG DICK OR JUST KDAY THRU A BUSTED SUBWOOFER.

THE VIDEO FOR “LOUD” HITS ALL THE MARKS ON SOME STRAIGHT UP “WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE” TYPE VIBES AND YOU CAN WATCH IT ABOVE.

YESSIR. OUT OF THE DARKNESS, EXTREME ANIMALS PUSHES THRU LIKE A TON OF BRICKS. “RIP MCA/2K12/SAN DIEGO FIREWORKS FAIL, LOUD +UP CLOSE THE MEGAMIX” IS ON THE INTERNET NOW AND MAN IT FEELS GOOD. JACOB AND DAVID ARE TWO RAGERS CLOSE TO MY HEART AND THIS MIX PRETTY MUCH “SAYS IT ALL” ABOUT THE JAM BAND WITH PAPER RAD ROOTS.

SERIOUSLY CONCEPTUAL WITH EXCEPTIONAL “COURT VISION”, THIS MIX DOES THE DAMN THING SO I MEAN YOU GOT NO CHOICE BUT TO LISTEN. SOMETIMES EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE IS THE ONLY ANSWER. EXTREME ANIMALS ARE TRUE “NO DEPRESSION” MUSIC. CHECK OUT A MUST READ INTERVIEW AND LISTEN RIGHT HERE.

THIS JULY I DID A SESSION FOR HEARTLAND ONLINE MUSIC STUDIO DAYTROTTER AND NOW IT IS SEEING THE LIGHT OF DAY. I HAD A LOT OF FUN DOING THIS SESSION, I THINK THE DAYTROTTER VERSION OF “EXPRESSWAY TO THE DARKNESS” IS ESPECIALLY SICK. GOT DEEP IN THE CUT WITH A TRUE PSYCHEDELIC SOUNDMAN AND BLEW IT OUT TO “FRANKIE TEARDROP” LEVELS OF ROCK AND ROLL MADNESS.

CHECK IT OUT RIGHT HERE KIDS. IF YOU AREN’T A MEMBER OF DAYTROTTER YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR A FREE TRIAL AND STREAM THE MOTHERFUCKER.

THIS WEEK THE INCOMPARABLE CHUCK D OF PUBLIC ENEMY PLAYED MY SONG “LIKE A RENEGADE” ON HIS RADIO SHOW “AND YOU DON’T STOP” WHICH AIRS ON WBAI 99.5 FM IN NEW YORK CITY AND ONLINE. I TOURED WITH PE IN 2010 AND IT WAS A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE. CHUCK WAS VERY KIND TO ME AND FOR THAT I AM FOREVER IN DEBT. STILL A THRILL TO HEAR HIM SHOUT ME OUT IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, CHUCK.

ALSO, A MUST READ IS THIS LETTER (FOUND VIA CHUCK D’S TWITTER) THAT 2PAC SENT TO CHUCK D THAT NEVER MADE IT INTO CHUCK’S HANDS UNTIL AFTER 2PAC’S PASSING. PRETTY HEAVY/LEGENDARY/EMOTIONAL STUFF.

NETWORK AWESOME IS A COOL INTERNET TV STATION THAT CURATES FOOTAGE FROM YOUTUBE AND BEYOND TO CREATE A SICK AND ROBUST VIEWING EXPERIENCE. SO WHEN THEY REACHED OUT TO ME TO PROGRAM AN EPISODE OF THEIR LAUDED “LIVE MUSIC SHOW” (WHICH HAS BEEN IN THE PAST PROGRAMMED BY THE LIKES OF DAS RACIST AND DEATHBOMB ARC) YOU KNOW I HAD TO DO IT!

MY EPISODE IS JUST SOME STRAIGHT UP SLAMMIN’ AMERICAN MUSIC RANGING FROM ROCK AND ROLL TO RAP TO HEARTLAND FREAKOUTS AND BEYOND. MOMENTS IN TIME. FUCK MAN, SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE THIS MUSIC SHIT IS ALL I GOT (BESIDES THE ENERGY DRINK). WATCH IT ABOVE OR CHECK IT OUT AT NETWORK AWESOME RIGHT HERE.

LAST SUMMER I MADE TWO DIGI MIXTAPES (VOLUME ONE AND TWO) THAT TRY TO BREAK DOWN WHERE MY HEAD IS AT WITH THIS RAP ROCK SHIT, ESPECIALLY ON MY NEWEST LP “I DON’T WANNA GO INTO THE DARKNESS”. I CALLED THEM “HEARTLAND CLASSICS” BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT IT IS. TIMELESS AMERICAN MUSIC!

I’M TRYING TO CONNECT THE DOTS AND FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF MY HEROES. THERE IS A LONG HISTORY OF KIDS FREAKING OUT IN THE USA AND ALL I’M TRYING TO DO IS TAKE IT TO THE LOGICAL NEXT LEVEL. THESE MIXES ARE A BLUEPRINT FOR THE NEW STYLE. RAP. POP. SPRINGSTEEN. YOU FEEL ME? WELCOME TO THE THUNDER ZONE.

THEY WERE ORIGINALLY POSTED ON THE IMPOSE AND MISKA BLOGS AND YOU CAN GRAB THEM BELOW. NEVER SURRENDER FOREVER.
