Rakim: Live, Lost & Found

Rakim [2008] The Archive: Live, Lost & Found

The god is back? No, not yet, this is just a collection of live tracks and stuff like that, but you can also find 4 never heard before tracks, including the famous "It's Nothing". This makes me worried about The Seventh Seal, since I'm guessing this 4 tracks were made for it. Anyone, it's Rakim Allah, so I don't need to say more.

01. Hip Hop
02. Love 4 Sale
03. Word On The Street

2 Years and running... well, kind off..

Just noticed yesterday that it's been 2 years since I started posting... damn, 2 years? A lot of thing have changed, a lot of albums have been posted. But lately... meh... things in the blog have gone straight downhill. When I look back at months like September 2006, when I made 22 posts in a month, and compare them to the last couple of months, I'm even ashamed of opening the blog. As I said before, school has been pretty ruff lately, and I rarely have spare time to listen to most of the albums that come out, so my posts are affected, and I disapoint my visitors.
But, if you think I'm going to close the shop, you're wrong. Rapdungeon is still here, and I hope to still be here a year from now. I still got 160+ Kool G. Rap tracks and 100+ Masta Ace tracks to to post on my collections somewhere in the futue (thanks to many people who have helped), I just need to have time to organise and complete them, which I don't have right now.

Meanwhile, one of the blogs that has been here from the start, from one of the first people who ever commented on rapdungeon has closed down. So go thank Biff and all his crew at their blog for all their work.

New post comming soon.

Oh, no he didn't! More Jazz-Rap?!

Artofficial (2007) Stranger EP

"Imagine Soulive with a harder edge or The Roots, but jazzier, denser, and more spontaneous. Envision blending your favorite groups from Hip-Hop’s Golden era and replacing their sampled beats with Jazz musicians." -CDBaby

ArtOfficial consists of Danny Perez on Keys, Manny Patino on Drums, Ralf Valencia on Bass, and Keith Cooper on the Saxophone with the vocals provided by emcees Newsense and Logics.

Another 2007 Jazzy album I missed, a must-listen.

01. Big City Bright Lights

02. Gone

03. Clockwork

04. Eyes of A Stranger

05. Remember The Day

The Jazz is back

Jazz Liberatorz (2008) Clin D'oeil

Brand new album from this french group composed by DJ DAMAGE, DJ DUSTY and MADHI. If you're like me, you'll only need look at the group name and guestlist to know this is going to be REALLY good.
Like Brand New Heavies did 16 years ago (damn, 16?), the group makes jazzy music and invites great MC's to rap over, from Fatlip (Pharcyde), to Asheru, Sadat X or Apany B. I'm really tired so I won't write more, but I recommend this one. Jazz-rap is just one of the best things to ever being created.

1 - Clin d’Oeil
2 - Easy Mind feat. Tre Hardon, Fatlip & Omni
3 - i am Hip Hop feat. Asheru
4 - When The Clock Ticks feat. J. Sands
5 - Genius At Work feat. Fat Lip & T. love
6 - Indonesia feat. Tableek from Maspyke
7 - The Process feat. Apany B. Fly
8 - The Return feat. Saddat X
9 - U Do feat. Stacy Epps
10 - Cool Down feat. Rashan Ahmad
11 - Take A Time feat. Buckshot
12 - Vacation feat. J. Live
13 - Speak The Language feat. Lizz Fields
14 - Quidar feat. Soul Clan

Back to the Future

Guru (2008) Jazzmatazz - Back to the Future (The Mixtape)

You know the Gang Starr days aren't comming back, not even the early Jazzmatazz days are comming back, and you also know what I think of Guru's new "Superproducer" Solar. Anyway, I'll still be checking everything that Guru drops, as wack as it gets. But this mixtape isn't wack, in fact, I found many of the tracks pretty good, besides the remixed tracks, it has collabos with Zion I, Lor Tariq, Aceyalone, Mr. Lif, C.Knowledge (of Digable planets) and the amazing Blue Scholars.

Unlike his other work with Solar, this actually has some Jazzy laid back beats that we all love to hear Guru rapping over. This > Jazzmatazz vol. 4.

1. Intro (Don Gurizzy)
2. Knowledge f. Lord Tariq
3. 7 Grand Ya'll f. Solar

17. Movemeant - The Scope Of Things To Come
18. Consequence - Dont Quit Your Day Job
19. Atmosphere - Sad Clown Bad Summer (Number 9)
20. Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass

These are the albums I have most enjoyed, I placed Aesop Rock so low because imo he's too damn complex for someone that doesn't speak english as primary language. So, not able to fully understand his greatness, I still placed it on the list because it's a great album. I also included Atmosphere's EP because I bumped it all summer.

I was going to make a post similar to last year's... but I didn't have time, so, discuss.

Merry Christmas

I know that I haven't dedicated much time to the blog in the past few months, I had lots of things to do and very few spare time, so sorry about that.

But did you think Kaz would forget about his blog readers on this holiday? hell naw!

I'm in the process of re-uploading all my collections, rapidshare is tooooooo slow today, so only the Pharoahe Monch one is up so far, but the other should also be up soon.

Now, for your gift, check the post bellow.

Everyone's favorite indie MC has returned, the mighty One Many Army from Binary Star. In my opinion, this album is not as strong as his previous, but One Be Lo does step up his rapping skills. As usual, you can't miss this one.

Busta Rhymes + J. Dilla = Dillagence

Lots of great albums have leaked in these last weeks (Cunninlynguists, Ghostface Killah, Hi-Tek, Public Enemy, Scarface, Murs, Wu-Tang Clan, and the list goes on), I really liked the CL and Wu-Tang ones, and I haven't had the time to pay much attention to the rest, but here's a little something that got my attention:

Mick Boogie Presents [2007]

Busta Rhymes + J. Dilla = Dillagence

Tired of hearing Busta Rhymes on crappy songs like "I Love My Bitch" or poppy remixes? Want to hear the good old Busta Rhymes again? Well, I think this is the closer you're going to get. A mixtape full of new Busta Rhymes verses over unreleased J. Dilla beats along with cool guestspots... what more can you ask for? Trust me, this is the best that I've heard from Busta for a while, and I have a feeling it's going to be that for some time. J. Dilla fans will also be happy, so it's a 2 in 1. Enjoy. Thank you Mick Boogie and Busta for paying tribute to one of the greatest.

Jack Of All Trades

Wildchild (of Lootpack) (2007) Jack Of All Trades

Even though it's not Lootpack, Wildchild still managed to find the hottest producers in the game for his second solo album. Featuring beats by Madlib, Black Milk, Oh No, Georgia Anne Muldrow, & Kev Brown. Guests include Masta Ace, MC Lyte, Special Ed, Percee P, Prince Po, Souls of Mischief, MED, Oh No, & more.

The standout track here is "The League", for obvious reasons, and the amazing Dilla Tribute "Rest N Beats" but the whole album is nice, if you liked Percee P's album, you're also going to like this one.

The Horns of Jericho

Hijack [1991] The Horns of Jericho

I saw this album about a year ago (?) at 9@ 's place and I was amazed by its quality, and shocked by the fact it's pratically unknown outside the UK. EVERYONE should listen to this classic, they'll remind of Public Enemy sometimes, old school fans will love this.

Hijack were a hip hop group from Brixton in London, featuring Kamanchi Sly, DJ Supreme, DJ Undercover, Ulysses, Agent Fritz and Agent Clueso. Their early singles brought them to the attention of West Coast rapper Ice T, who signed the group to his own Rhyme Syndicate Records label.

1 Intro / Phantom Of The Opera
2 The Syndicate Outta Jail
3 Daddy Rich (Part 1)
4 Back To Brixton
5 Airwave Hijack (Part 1)

London Posse Bites Dentist

London Posse (1990) Gangster Chronicle

On my trip to London this weekend, I took a look at the Hip-Hop section of a HMV store and I happened to find this album... I don't have a clue if it's available at regular stores worldwide or if it's that rare (or probably pretty common), but I decided to buy it just because it's a CLASSIC. I also tried to find an album by another Old School hip-hop group called "Hijack" (props to 9@ for letting me know about him), but as usual, the employees didn't know shit about Hip-Hop, and after 5 minutes explaining how to spell the group name, I decided to give up, but expect a post about them soon.
Here's a great site with lots of info about this group, which is a pioneer of UK hip-hop. Enjoy.

A Lo Cubano

Orishas (2000) A Lo Cubano

I was bumping Orishas the other day and I thought that I didn't know if most of visitors know about them, since they're pretty popular here, but I rarely read anything about them.

Orishas is a hip-hop group whose members had emigrated from Cuba. Their music describes social problems on the peripheries of Havana.
The group is very popular in Europe and Latin America. Yotuel and Ruzzo, two Cubans who moved from Havana to Paris as part of an international studies program, joined Roldan and Flaco-Pro to form the band in 1999. Their work is influenced by the hip-hop movement as well as both Latin and Cuban rhythms.

I'm a big fan of artists who mix their country's musical styles with Hip-Hop, and just like Marcelo D2 has done it Samba, Orishas have done it with Cuban music.

Travel At Your Own Pace [Album of the year?]

Y Society (2007) Travel At Your Own Pace

Some people with a really good taste in Hip-Hop recommended me this album, and as soon as I started listening, I was amazed. Group members Insight and Damu the Fudgemunk created a masterpiece. It just feels like it was made in 1994: amazing jazzy beats with awsome scratches and nostalogic samples, something that would remind you of old Pete Rock, Primo or Diamond D, aswell as an unique new style from Damu. The Boston, MA resident MC Insight has gained the respect of his peers including Mr. Lif, Edan, and Electric Company over the last decade. And he can really spit good lyrics with an amazing fast (or slow at times) flow.

I really really think you should listen to this, and post your thoughts.

Still Rising

Jeru The Damaja [2007] Still Rising

I've been waiting for this album forever, and when it finally leaks, I have to spend all night studying... life's a bitch. Enjoy the album, I will listen to it tomorrow, even thought I'm not expecting another classic like the ones he dropped with Primo, I sure expect some good tracks.

EDIT: After listening to the album, it's safe to say it's a little better than what I was expecting, the production is not anything near Primo, but it's decent (and sometimes actually good), I think the 2 beats handled by Jeru are standouts and the Showcase produced track "NY" features a modern rap beat in which Jeru's flow kinda fits, the lyrics are on point as usual, Jeru fans will like to hear another story of his fight against ignorance on "The Prophet", I bolded my favorite tracks. Thanks for keeping making good music for your fans Jeru.

Perseverance

Percee P [2007] Perseverance

First of all, a small intro on Percee P:

PERCEE P came up in the Patterson Houses Projects of the Bronx, NY. He started hearing the precursors of hip-hop out of his windows before he was in kindergarten, around 1973. By ten, Percee had a mic in his hand.

"Percee P is one of the most important rappers to never get his due. His style has been cited as a major influence on the likes of Pharoahe Monch (that's him on the 'Lung Collapsing Lyrics' intro) and basically all of DITC (via Lord Finesse, who he battled in '89). He's cut records with everyone from Kane & Kool Keith to Aesop Rock & Jurassic 5 and outshined just about all of them. That's his voice on DJ Shadow's 'Napalm Brain, Scatter Brain'. I could go on... In short, aside from Big Daddy Kane, he's the illest quote unquote fast rapper to ever touch the mic. But because he's only recorded about 18 verses in as many years, not a lot of heads know what's up."
– www.cocaineblunts.com

After all these years in the background, Percee FINALLY releases his debut, and what label would be better for that than Stones Throw Records?
This is also another personal favourite album of mine that dropped in these last weeks, Percee P's flow is legendary (even thought I've heard some complains about he doesn't adjust it to the beats throught the album), his lyrics put a lot of good rappers in shame, and the Madlib production is great as always. A must.

Percee P vs. Lord Finesse Live @ The Patterson Projects, 1989 Pt. 1

Percee P vs. Lord Finesse Live @ The Patterson Projects, 1989 Pt. 2




If you listen to these old battles you'll notice many of the lines were later re-used in a lot of Percee P songs, including songs from Perseverance. But the best part must be the ice cream truck comming over Ahaha.

And here's another video you might be interested in:
