Start the Day Off RIGHT------------->
Best of Times by Strong Arm Steady f/Phonte off of In Search of Stoney Jackson, their new album that's dropping later on this month, produced by Madlib. this record is gonna be freaking EPIC! do yourself a favor and preorder that joint on Amazon (or wherever you get your music...). If I didn't know Madlib planned on dropping 12 albums this year (no, I'm not joking), I would go ahead and give this joint album of the year for 2010 right now, but the year is gonna sound reeeeal good...

who ever came up with the idea to put Madlib and Strong Arm Steady together to do a record (under the name Stoney Jackson
) deserves 70 virgins or something... (it was probably Kweli's idea). anyways, the album's in the works, but here's a free track that won't be on it called Jordache Look f/ Bad Lucc. jeauh! the artwork here is by gMA Artist/Illustrator of the Year Nominee Billy Nunez (aka Biz20) from Boston. Enjoy. Holla!

New DOOM teeshirts, Interview
StonesThrow Records got these fresh Tees based on the classic Madvillain (MF DOOM and Madlib) collabo video ALL CAPS. they got the villainous imagery in white or black, to keep your boat floatin' in all seasons... give that joint to your favorite bare-chested rapper, so he can stop embarrassing himself for the Man. for those newbies who don't understand the hubbub surrounding the villain, peep some YouTube heat courtesy of StonesThrow...ALL CAPS by Madvillain (MF DOOM and Madlib)
if you just can't get enough DOOM, pick up a copy of The New Yorker which has a great interview with the Villain. or, if you're like me, click the pic to read a generous excerpt off the StonesThrow blog, instead! they bravely encroach on DOOM's inner sanctum in the ATL and sit at the foot of the underground superstar to ask him all manner of questions... including inquiries into some of his recent villainous activities (sending his DOOMbots to lipsynch at shows, for example). He also speaks on his history as a recording artist and the new Madvillain record. peep that...holla!

Eardrum Lives Up To The Hype...
i finally got EARDRUM yesterday...it's a nice record. a few joints ("Hostile Gospel [deliver us]", "Give 'Em Hell", "In The Mood", "Eat To Live", and "Country Cousins") stand out at the moment. in what his press release calls a "career defining album" with "hard hitting beats and inventive rhymes that serve to not only entertain, but also to educate" Kweli holds up his end of it, dropping a nice, classic record. critics will no doubt compare this record unfavorably to Reflection Eternal's Train Of Thought or the Blackstar album (that Kweli created with Hi-Tek and the mighty Mos Def, respectively), but i would say this record is a return to that kind of glory (not the height, but the type...). while Mos is conspicuously absent, Hi-Tek and a slew of other guests keep the balance, well BALANCED!
i like Kweli, and this record is what i've come to expect from him. like many of the artists i like, Kweli bashes christianity often. i don't 
get mad about it, because the church needs reform. i'm happy to elaborate if you wanna know how i feel about all that... on topic, i already have some of the songs on here (Talib gave away songs FREE on "LIBeration" w/MadLib and the "BlackSmith: The Movement" mixtape w/StongArmSteady, Jean Grae etc), and know many from mySpace promos...

with the bonus tracks, Eardrum weighs in at a slightly bloated 20 songs. if you cut 7 songs, it'd be a near-perfect outing... as is, a little long with little too much filler to be considered perfect. all said, a step in the right direction for an artist who constantly insists he is not a solo artist. instead, Kweli insists he is "a frontman for a group of artists, lovers, poets and regular everyday folk that make up my body of work." As a person who believes that most of today's solo hip hop artists belong in groups not on their own, i applaud Kweli's attitude... and as long as Kweli is unable to get together with co-conspirators like Mos and Tek, records like this one will do in a pinch.holla!

put this in your ear!
Brooklyn Emcee Talib Kweli (pronounced tah LIB quah-LEE) dropped his new joint Eardrum today in stores nationwide. In what the press release calls a "career-defining album" (Kweli's sixth studio joint), Kweli promises to mix "hard hitting beats with inventive rhymes that serve to not only entertain, but also to educate."Guest artists on the record include UGK, Norah Jones,Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, KRS-ONE, Blacksmith artist Jean Grae and Musiq Soulchild.
On Beats kweli enlists Kanye, Will.I.Am (of the BlackEyedPea's), frequent partner Hi-Tek (Blackstar, Reflection Eternal), Kwame (yeah, THAT Kwame) and MadLib. when i get a chance to hear it, i'll let ya'll know what i think...
peace.
