Mac Hommy x Westside Gunn @westsidegunn #Pray4Haiti #GriseldaRecords

Better late but sorry !! The Buffalo Griselda Records Artists clearly won me over the title of the Project. Before i was sidelined, I was starting to share Griselda on the site. Westside Gunn a talent in the culture, he has a innate ability to identify talent.. Sake Pase to the Haitian via Buffalo Native Mac-Hommy for being ecclective and unique with his sound.

More importantly this is an appreciation post for Mac Hommy & Westside Gunn utilizing their platforms to raise awareness on the disparities and violence that is happening in my Grandparents beloved Home. Back to the music, I am Barbian, I need BARS.. I need wit I need to hear a display of wizardry with an artists talent.

Joints I am rocking too

Rhythm N'Wrap Hiphop Brunch Review w/ Big Shug | Diamond Report Out Now

First and foremost if you are in the Boston Area and looking for a place to eat. Make sure you check out Rhythm N’Wrap Restaurant located in 1096 Commonwealth Ave, Boston Massachusetts. DATG (Dreams Are Tangible Goals). I remember the owner my main man “Aaron “Funk” Cohen, taking a break from the everyday hustle and grind of the music inudstry many moons ago and started dreaming about this opportunity.

The grind never ended, my guy started selling wraps out of food truck in Harvard Square now fast forward years later he has his own restaurant in Boston. My super OG, and one of my mentors in the music business Big Shug from Mattapan co-founder of Gangstarr with GURU (R.I.P) was going to pop up at the Restaurant with his latest project Diamond Report with DJ Nestle Quick spinning some of classics on the 1-2’s.

Very proud of the moment to see two peers of mine still grinding, still working hard this is just more inspiration for me. If you are in culinary arts, please follow your dream.

Review: First and foremost there are options for vegan and vegetarian options. I ordered the Vegeterian Mac N cheese and the my normal Gangsta Wrap, with a Pint of Sorrel Punch. Before i left i ordered a Peanut Paradise Smoothie to go. No bias the food delicious, I am not saying this because this is the homie because it’s actually good. I have not converted to Vegan and Vegetarian yet, i am foodie with an international taste bud cravings.

If you are in the Allston/Brighton and area of the city of Boston, Rhythm Wraps is accessible by MBTA, public transportation. A plethora of options from Tofu Tacos, to various wraps and sandwiches inspired by the culture and the music Funk, Big Shug, Singapore Kane and so many more love.

Vegan Food with a Beat ! Serving Boston, Cambridge. Today I travel to check out the owner "Aaron "Funk" Cohen, as he collaborates with Gangstarr Foundation Co-Founder Big Shug with a Hiphop Brunch. A vegan catered Brunch Menu, with DJ Nestle Quick spinning the Diamond Report Big Shug's latest project and Hiphop Classic. This is a win win.. Supporting the homie and the mentor.

Gangstarr - One of the Best Yet #1ofTheBestYet #BaldheadSlick #Guru #DjPremier

#DreamsAreTangibleGoals I am hiphop. 40 years old, my idols became peers.. Everything about the latest release of hiphop icon duo is a jolt to the culture. We have life, as find myself creating a new #hashtag #NRO (Now Rocking Out) just because i was inspired to hear some new Bald Head Slick. combined with Dj Premier production. Today is great day for us Hiphop, you and I, this is first material release since Guru passed away on April 19, 2010.

From the two release singles Bad Name & Family & Loyalty, we were hooked, Classic with dopest intro, some crowd paricipation, chanting, “ Gangstarr has got be the sure shot, and like that”, in the background different classic rotation. Man oh man I am already rocking. Let’s start the first record in Brownsville with MOP.. “Lights Out”. the joint is tough, loved how Fame went on the second verse. Track five What’s Real, after the second time it hit me, I loved the melodic combination of Gu’s first verse setting the tone to leaving it for Royce Da 5’9 destroy with certified street poetry on the hook Group Home.

Toward the end of the project Gu & Preem started talking you to school, starting with track 11 “So Many Rappers” is a joint that should be on rotation message for lol So Many Rappers, a solo effort showing Gu’s wittiness on the microphone. Next joint Business or Art featuring Talib Kweli is seriously is question that needs to be address. Maybe it’s my age, maybe i know how hard my guys work, the countless hours i have seen the greats do to produce the records we enjoy.

At this stage of the project I can’t wait to type this away. I truly have something to say, records “Bring it Back Here” , quick joint with Gu rocking out, fading into" “One of the Best Yet” featuring my OG’s Big Shug singing setting us with the “Take Flight’, ft. Big Shug & Freddie Fox who went ham.. Glad to hear Bumpy Knuckles spaz out on record.

In conclusion last record “Bless The Mic”, a prophetic joint, Premier had under wraps. I wanted to absoirb this project and after the second listen, this joint is going to continue to grow will be in your rotation and added to your playlist and once again RIP GURU AND FLOWERS TO DJ PREMIER WHILE YOU HERE.. YOU ARE ONE OF THE BEST YET.

For Gangstarr Merchandise & Apparel check out DJ Premier website. PremierWuzHere

After 15 years, Gang Starr fans can rejoice because a new full-length album with production by DJ Premier and rhymes from the legendary Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal has finally arrived. 16 cuts of freshness from Gang Starr has arrived in the form of the appropriately titled One Of the Best Yet. Containing sixteen tracks of pure heat that matches the signature Preemo sound with some never heard before rhymes from the late, great Guru, the unexpected seventh studio album from the classic rap duo hits hard and reminds us just how special Gang Starr was and forever will be.

#BandanaAlbumReview | The Album of the Year Tour | LA Leaker Freestyle #KaneSeason

Amazing how time flies, I have attempted to be consistent on this platform, unfortunately i have moved twice since the last post. Sorry for the delay the back drop is that I can say, I was the first to book Gangsta Gibbs and bring him to Boston (Middle East) Reks was the opening acts and Freddie was the headliner. Due to me coming full circle I am no longer running actively in the same circles so we lost some contact. However I am blessed and more pleased to see my guy crushing things a decade later.

The album Bandana has been in heavy rotation since it drop, a few months ago. The album has grown on me, I needed some real boom bap hiphop beats, with some top tier bars to compliment it, Madlib & Gangsta Gibbs didn’t disappoint.. Usually it tough to follow up the first project, which was Pianta which was released in 2014.

Single and video for Crime pays was released earlier in the year, ironically one of the last post i have done. My favorite joints on this album is Palmolive, Fake Names , Flat Tummy Tea, Giannis feat. Anderson Paak, Cataracts, arguably my favorite two songs of the year are GAT DAMN and Education Featuring Yasiin Bey & Black Thought. Stream: Bandana click here

Freddie Gibbs is hitting the road to a City near you, Looking forward to this show, I noticed they are coming to the 617(Boston). If you want to attend the Gangsta Gibb Show click here to purchase tickets.
