New Brother Ali



Brother ali is one of my favourite MC's.......I'll check ANYTHING he does and throw down money for it before i pay my rent..... better know i got the bootleg cus i'm impatient but i'm going to my local independ record store..hard cash and no credit in hand to buy his new project "Truth is Here" EP.
Here's what he's label rhymesayers say about it...

Nine tracks featuring two highly sought after b-sides and seven new and previously unreleased songs including “Philistine David”, which was featured in the Jonathan Demme directed documentary, Jimmy Carter Man From Plains and “The Believer” a collaboration with Slug of Atmosphere. In addition to the new EP, The Truth Is Here also contains a full length DVD that features Brother Ali’s sold out homecoming performance during The Undisputed Truth Tour at the legendary First Avenue nightclub in Minneapolis as well as interviews, a special commentary by Brother Ali, and videos of “Take Me Home” and “Uncle Sam Goddamn” from The Undisputed Truth. The Truth Is Here captures a key period in the career of what many have called one of the most promising voices to emerge from the underground this century and will be a must have for any and every Brother Ali fan. 

Here's the trailer for the DVD..... really looking forward to watching this.

Truth - "Picadilly (Mr Officer)"




















New track up @ myspace.com/reggierhythm
"Picadilly (Mr Officer)" Prod. Truth
from the up coming 61 Grace free album.

So....
As i explained @ rapsploitation sessions february show...this is my obligatory 'f@%! the police' track..... but not really..i've had friends who are police, just as much as iv'e had friends who are/were criminals...so i respect both sides of the "hustle".....don't getit twisted, some police are fucked up..maybe more than those that are fair and genuine...but not all are....i'm not doing with stereotyping or labeling collective ideas on a certain "group" or people......

However...i do not like the harassment i've experienced from police...i mean, yeh sure, if i got a bomb on me...you're a hero...but from my point of view, it's fucking embarassing to be stoped and searched in a public place when i'm a righteous MOTHERFUCKER.

So this track derives from a certain incident that happened a couple summers ago @ picadilly train station in manchester (shouts to deepo, the graduate & jun tzu, the bomber..)....an incident that since has repeated itself several times.

hope you enjoy the joint...oh it's produced by me also...so..beats n shit.....ha.

Peace
Truth

The Colony - "New Rules"

New video from UK Hip Hop supergroup The Colony - "New Rules" Prod. Conspicuous of the groups upcoming album, planned for a summer release.

You might spot a lil cameo from myself in there if you're eyes are sharp enough....i've heard some cuts of the album, and its gunna be RIDICULOUS....bring a really fresh sound to the table...

"Dead Man Running" Trailer ft. 50 Cent

Now, i'm neither a 50 cent lover or hater...i think he's made a few decent tunes, at the same time, i think his general output is garbage. However i do hold respect to him for his beat choice (shouts to sha money).
Anyway, here's his new film trailer which doens't look too bad.....it's a british film co-starring danny "i'm danny farking dyer" dyer & ashley walters. On some proper, london-gangsta flick which we all love.

Looking forward to it dropping...i'll definately check it (on a bootlegg download probably).

Dwele - Workinonit Video

I bumped this song CONTINUOUSLY when i got the newest Dwele album. And now his done a super-low budget video to his Dilla tribute song.......

The video's concept isn't as good as the songs, but i'ts dope just to see some visuals thrown together for the song, and it's another video in a string of low-budget, DIY, net only videos.
