The name Organic Thoughts isn’t your typical hip-hop group name.  In fact, the name alone probably reminds you more of a vegetarian food market or agricultural cultivation.  But then again, the group members – Tonio, El Gambina, DJ Reason and DJ onPoynt – aren’t your typical hip-hop artists either.

To say that Organic Thoughts “does it for the love of the music” would sound cliché, but there really is no other way to put it.  Embedded in their music is the obvious influence of an old school b-boy vibe and the graffiti artist’s mentality – stimuli that they grew up with.  And even as the members finish school and move on to professional careers, they continue to express themselves through this thing we call hip-hop.  The group’s motivation?  To create original hip-hop music and keep true to the artform’s roots.

Organic Thoughts is a breath of fresh air, a return to what hip-hop is supposed to be. Comprised of two MC’s and two DJ’s from New Jersey, El Gambina, Tonio, DJ OnPoynt and DJ Reason have brought back the true nature of hip-hop-banging beats, thoughtful lyrics, and clever hooks. With the release of their new album The Purest Form, Organic Thoughts on Blaze The World Records, offers a diverse group of jersey hiphop heads who serve hot tracks ranging from the lyrical bombardment of “Check the Flow,” to the more melodic messages found in “Be Allright.”Speaking of Organic Thoughts appreciation of “true-school” hip-hop, the album also features two of the games quietly admired underground legends. Large Professor, reaffirms his lyrical prowess with a guest appearance on “World Renowned.” Prince Poetry of the legendary group Organized Konfusion is also featured along with Peril-l of The Mountain Brothers.

The Purest Form is a good album from an up and coming group that leaves the listener eagerly wanting to see how this young group will develop. While it is unclear what Organic Thoughts will do in the future, it is clear that they have not forgotten the untainted hip-hop of the past.

Launched in 2004 by hip-hop outfit the Roots, Okayplayer Records here presents the first volume in a projected series. TRUE NOTES VOL. 1 is an impeccably hip collection of revered artists, including the ground-breaking DJ RJD2 and LA rappers … Full DescriptionDilated Peoples, and relative unknowns Nicolay & Supastition, whose hilarious “The Williams” (about a surplus of bills, hence the title) is a highlight.

Dilated Peoples’ “Okay” is one of the most self-assured tracks on offer here, but Jean Grae takes the honors for the collection’s most rambunctious performance with her effervescent “Fall Back.” RJD2 turns up again to produce Roots associate Dice Raw on the strangely relaxed “I Do What I Like,” and Virginia rapper Skillz is in his usual take-no-prisoners mode on “Take It Back.” TRUE NOTES VOL.1 is both a labor of love for its creators and a fine mix of established and up-and-coming hip-hop artists

This is one of the funkiest mixes that I’ve came across in a while. My boy chewlo over at 5vemics recommended it a while ago, and I’ve been meaning to share it with ya’ll for a minute but you know how it is. Anyways, if you’re unfamiliar with DJ Jay Glaze & Pro Celebrity Golf they’re a duo outta Manchester and they’ve fused the best Necro and MF Doom breaks to come up with 3 Sinister Syllables. Here’s a bit more info about the project via boomkat.com:

Welcome to one of the most esoteric and hands-down mindblowing mix cd’s you will ever have the pleasure of hearing. For the mix think Edward G. Robinson, Brass Eye, Larry David, Woody Allen, Bob Hoskins from ‘The Long Good Friday’, through to the exotic, fantastic and just plain unknown. Pop from all territories: neglected fourth albums, Japanese soul breaks, Israeli eurovision b-sides, country & western beats, obscure latin, hirsute eastern european songstresses, late sixties South African beats, swedish pop – all subjected to the Herring men’s discerning ears and deft fingers. And for hardcore breaks’ nuts there’s pleasures still more intense – check the Tribute to MF Doom; an inspiration since KMD days, here’s all the original source material for the classic ‘Operation Doomsday’LP, and further breaks employed by MADVILLAIN, Special Herbs, Monsta Island Czars, MF(GM) Grimm and King Geedorah all surfacing in an unashamed homage to the man ruling Hip-Hop right now. It’s been described by Stones Throw main man Egon as “…the bomb – the Super Villain MF DOOM wouldn’t give me my copy back!”, while J-Zone declared “One of the only CD’s I got sent this year that didn’t become a drink coaster!’ and Fondle ‘em legend Bobbito cried out “it’s paced unlike any other mix cd I’ve ever heard…..” and Wax Poetics magazine implored “here’s your Kabbalah. Study up, young grasshoppers.” and DJ Yoda and Dan Greenpeace descibed simply as “….absolute genius”. Over two years in the making, it just doesn’t get any better. Genius.

All praise due to Whtetrashwarrior.

MURS released his first single in 1993, taken from a self-released album by his first group, 3 Melancholy Gypsies (aka 3MG). The group became friends with Mystik Journeymen, and joined them in the Living Legends collective in 1996.

MURS appeared as a rapper on more than 20 records, EPs, and singles over a seven-year period, both on releases by 3MG and Living Legends. His debut solo album, The End of the Beginning, was released in the spring of 2003. He also worked with Slug under the name Felt, taking a more experimental approach. A second solo album, Murs 3:16: The 9th Edition, was produced by 9th Wonder. Taking a more thoughtful approach than gangster rappers, the album prompted Andy Gill of The Independent to say “eschewing bogus glamour for emotional realism, Murs manages to say more about the corrosive cancer of hip-hop’s gun culture than all the thousands of column inches lavished on 50 Cent’s bullet wounds”. The track “Walk Like a Man” from that album inspired a film of the same name in which MURS starred along with Damien Wigfall. After another solo album with 9th Wonder, Murray’s Revenge, in 2006, MURS signed a contract with Warner Bros., his debut album for the label being Murs for President.This was preceded by Sweet Lord which was given away free to fans.

Aside from music, MURS is a host of Current TV.

When this album dropped I initially wasn’t a fan, but 5 years later listening to songs like “Ch-Check It Out”, “Shazam!” and “Triple Trouble” gets me hyped. Even if you’re not a fan of this particular Beastie Boys album, peepage of some of their older works is a big must.

The hiatus is back off, again, for the Beastie Boys, and music lovers will bob their heads with insuppressible glee. With its Nice & Smooth impersonations and shout outs to Brooklyn’s Albee Square Mall, To the 5 Boroughs, their first album in six years, harkens the return of the trio to the city that made them who they are today. It’s an up-tempo yet surprisingly homogenous assemblage of vintage electro-style party beats, and it’s a strictly Beastie affair: the Boys co-wrote and produced each track themselves, which means that it sports none of the sonic fripperies and quirky collaborations that distinguished previous classics such as Paul’s Boutique. Finally jelling after two years of on-again, off-again recording, To the 5 Boroughs will appeal to those fans old enough to remember the Licensed to Ill tour. Those old-schoolers are sure to appreciate the album’s mostly off-the-cuff lyrics and minimal-to-the-extreme musical landscape–even if its stripped-down sound may leave others longing for the days when the Boys were California dreamin’.

Another dope request. Got into Illogic only recently with the release of his new EP, dude is real nice. High praise for this one all around the net so I really hope it’s as good as they claim.

One of the, um, endearing little quirks of CMG is that, on occasion, we get horrifically meta and first person. This is going to be one of those occasions, so hold on to your Vonneguts. Herein, I’m razing my old review for what I swear to be a neo-classic of hip-hop, last year’s and Illogic’s Celestial Clockwork. NY-based Raptivism now peddles Weightless wares, hopefully ensuring much better distribution of the small Columbus label’s quality releases; as a sort of dowry, Weightless presently offers a reissue of their (to date) watermark album, Illogic’s personal opus and third LP. This reissue features a shiny new remix and bonus track, so I can’t think of a better excuse to jump aboard my private/lonely hype wagon and lavish more praise on an album that I admire to a rather pathetic degree. In my jumping and admiring, I eradicate and redux my old review, a bulky and awkward beast that lumbers about with a track-by-track approach mired in choppy lyrical examples and overdone metaphors… oh, and long sentences, naturally. Looking at other reviews from my early CMG days (see Cryptic One and Cee-Lo Green), it’s surprising that Scott and Amir didn’t stage an intervention and send me into some sort of writing detox program. Judging by this paragraph, it may already be too late for me.

It’s almost diabolically fitting that the whole Celestial Clockwork reissue should come about with my self-conscious revisionism in tow, for one of the major themes of the album is the idea of time passing and the inevitable changes it brings, how the very process of change is the only medium in which life and growth can take place. If you don’t believe that that’s a big theme in an album belonging to a genre often possessed of short-sighted materialism, well, you can check the fantastic title track and the lyrics to the songs “The Only Constant” and “Stand,” both of which feature Illogic positing that “change is the only constant.” So, uh, booyah.

I wasn’t sure what to think of BHV’s request of “College Registration” so I played it safe. I really do love both these CDs, is that Kanye gone for good? I sure hope not, it’s not promising though. 

Yes, Kanye West’s debut album The College Dropoutis proof that you can be one of hip-hop’s hottest producers and still be proficient at writing and delivering rhymes, that not all producers sink a track when they get on the mic. Yes, The College Dropoutis an example of a much-hyped, long-delayed, heavily bootlegged album that is worth every second of the wait, that is just as good as you expected it to be. Yes, the track that so much of that attention has been focused on — “Through the Wire”, Kanye’s confessional rap about his horrific car accident, capably rhymed while his jaw was still wired shut — is as riveting and moving as everyone says it is. Yes, the beats on this album are at least as hot as those he’s grown famous for. And yes, as a link between Jay-Z and Talib Kweli (or the “first nigga with a Benz and a backpack”, as he puts it on one song) he is likely to win over hip-hop fans of all stripes; when critics refer to him as “hip-hop’s savior”, you understand what they’re getting at, even as you think “Does hip-hop need to be saved?” But all of that is only half the story. That’s just the beginning of what The College Dropout is all about, only the first in the long list of reasons why the album is so unique, and so powerful.

A college dropout himself, West uses the cover art and a serious of skits to frame the album as a commentary on the educational system, a criticism of what people expect to gain from school and of the tenuous connection which that often has to what is taught and learned. That idea holds the album together as an extended look at the choices people make in life, and the reasons behind them. On song after song he uses his own life to rap about growing up and trying to survive in a harsh world, about the things we do just to get by. “Through the Wire” may be the album’s most startling personal horror story (though it’s also a song of hope and gratitude), but many of the other songs use autobiography in a more fluid and casual way. It’s like you’re listening to one of your neighbors tell you about his life — not because Kanye’s talents as an MC are pedestrian (by no means), but because he crosses subjects and contradicts himself in a very real way. His style of rapping is both self-boosting and self-deprecating; he expresses from-the-heart feelings about the world and where it’s gone wrong, then makes fun of himself for feeling like he has any right to judge others. He rhymes with conviction, and then steps back and laughs at himself… but instead of cutting against what he’s saying, that style makes the songs feel more honest. Kanye’s a Whitmanesque everyman figure who stands out in a genre where even the most “complicated” MCs — the sensitive gangstas — still all too often feel like they’ve built themselves personas to sell. On The College Dropout, Kanye West feels not like a persona but a person, and one who’s remarkably gifted at putting his worldview into a song, even when it’s messy and contradictory.

The more you listen to The College Dropout the harder Kanye becomes to define. In one moment he’s a street journalist who dissects the low expectations America has for young black teenagers and who understands the mechanics behind crime and the criminal justice system all too well; on the first track “We Don’t Care” he offers this wry chorus as a graduation anthem, and gets a kid’s choir to joyously sing it: “All you people that’s drug dealing just to get by/ Stack your money till it gets sky high/ We wasn’t supposed to make it past 25/ Jokes on you we still alive.” Then in another moment all he cares about is shiny car and women’s bra sizes. But lest you think that scholar/player is the only dichotomy here, check out the variety of ideas and complexities displayed across even just three of the album’s tracks:

On “All Falls Down” he criticizes consumerism as an expression of self-hatred rooted in history (”We shine because they hate us/ Floss cause they degrade us/ We tryin to buy back our 40 acres”), and then implicates himself in the same process.

The gospel hymn “I’ll Fly Away” leads into “Spaceship”, a low-key funk track about wishing you could get away from the working world via a spaceship; with help from GLC and Consequence, Kanye effectively links the legacy of slavery to modern-day corporate enslavement, while using the spaceship image to make evident the often invisible line between the “free us from the burdens of this world” theme of gospel music and the Afro-futurism of Sun Ra and P-Funk. Take into account the doo-wop style in which “I’ll Fly Away” is sung, and the Marvin Gaye sample the song uses, and you have a rich study of themes in the history of black music as well as a working man’s anthem.

On “Jesus Walks” Kanye proclaims his devotion to Jesus as seriously as the most devotional hymn singer would, while illustrating the way he falls in and out of what he perceives as the good path to follow. “I wanna talk to God but I’m afraid cause we aint spoke in so long,” he confesses, but then he goes ahead and asks us all to join him in that conversation, to push the song onto radio and push the divine into the heart of public dialogue. Extra dimensions are added to the song by the intense, cinematic presence it has, with all of the drama of a gangster film’s climactic scenes, and by a Curtis Mayfield drop that makes the song ripe for a study of intertextuality.Add to those the over-the-top “New Workout Plan”, both a hilarious parody of an aerobics routine and a platform for Kanye to wrap his words around weird shifts in tempo and style; “Never Let Me Down”, where Jay-Z rhymes about attaining status and power, Kanye one-ups him with a show-stopping attack on racism and meditation on death, and J Ivy offers words of spiritual upliftment; “Slow Jamz”, both an ode to quiet-storm R&B and a goof on it; “Two Words”, a deafening mix of social critique and bragging with Mos Def, Freeway and the Harlem Boys Choir; “Family Business”, a sweet, soulful tribute to family; and a few tracks with him boasting and goofing over slamming funk-n-soul tracks, and you have an album that’s complicated in exactly the right ways.Call The College Dropout over-ambitious, if you will, but every single one of these songs comes off like a genuine extension of Kanye’s personality and experiences. And all of them are musically engaging — an instrumental version of this album would rock the house. The album’s focus on old-school soul, gospel and funk sounds, with classic R&B hooks often processed and looped at a song’s center, fits thematically with the album’s look at survival, struggle, and community. Kanye uses samples and beats in a highly emotional way that feels entirely authentic even in the album’s most heart-on-sleeve moments, like “Family Business”. Here what would be hokey in another musician’s hands makes you feel real shivers, maybe even cry real tears. That level of “realness”, the way that the songs ring true whether he’s bragging or self-criticizing, joking or praying, is what makesThe College Dropout more than worthy of all of the attention that it’s getting. Even the 12-minute autobiographical monologue that closes the album is off-the-cuff and honest, against the odds.(Via PopMatters.com)

For fans of the Roots & LA Symphony.
You might remember Rashaan Ahmad dropped his critically acclaimed (yet silently released) album The Push (Om) earlier this year and after a four year hiatus it seems as if the Oakland live hip-hop band is returning as new tracks keep popping up all over the place. Haven’t heard either of their two EPs before, but Earthtones is a boom bap classic and One is a solid debut effort. Get familiar and cop their new joint when it drops.

Comprised of the Cali bred MC Raashan Ahmad, producer Woodstock, the Berklee trained keyboardist Kat Ouano, bassist/producer Headnodic, and drummer Max MacVeety, Crown City Rockers formed in Beantown’s Roxbury section during the late nineties.

Raashan, who’d moved from Pasadena at the time to pursue his dreams of emceeing ran into the Berklee contingent at various open-mic and freestyle sessions aroung the city (Kat hails originally from Wichita, Kansas, Headnodic from Wisconsin, and Max is from Massachusetts). Everyone clicked, sharing an interest in organic hip-hop and live instrumentation, bonding musically as well as personally.

“We did some shows in Boston trying to get our name out,” recounts Raashan. “And then we decided to move out to Cali to record an album.”

And so, the group, then known as Mission: which at that time included Moe Pope (check Project Move), set out West. The trip to Cali proved to be an adventure in itself. An 18-wheeler totaled all of the group’s instruments and the car they were driving. Once the group finally made it out west, they used the insurance money from the accident to put out a self-titled EP to get their name out.

Soon after came their first full-length, called One. The album quickly established the group as subterranean scene stalwarts in the Bay Area hip hop community, where they were now located. After that, the group, who in 2003 changed their name to Crown City Rockers after The Mission, (a British goth dance rock band) asked them to switch monikers, hit the studio hard recording countless songs, eventually placing 19 on their 2004 debut, Earthtones.
