Music is art. Quincy Jones (“Q”) is music AND music history! Watch the clip above of the living legend answering questions and dropping gems soaked history and wisdom.

Maaan, Uncle Q is like that cool uncle you love to go visit; just to hear him talk and to talk with you. Dope content. Enjoy and be enriched.
No fear! NOTHING scares me, man.

Watch This Short Film On The History And Musical Impact Of The Soulquarians (Documentary)
January 31, 2018
The Soulquarians were born at the Electric Lady Studios. Questlove and D’Angelo loving to make music with sickness in it. Common & Erykah Badu came in and got down with the sickness. The fam kept growing… and the brothers James (Poyser and Yancey) rounded out the core… but the story certainly doesn’t stop there…
In 1998, the Neo-Soul movement was near its peak when a collective of like-minded artists came together to push the wave even higher. They called themselves the Soulquarians, and before the decade ended they’d help birth some of the modern era’s greatest recordings.

Watch how ‘sick’ the crew would get. Nice!

You probably heard about Kendrick’s phenomenal Grammy Awards performance. But there’s nothing like hearing and seeing it (and seeing it again, if you have already)!
Plus… how cool is it to just have Bono & The Edge (from U2) do a walk-through during your live set? Answer: VERY!
Plus, plus… A heartfelt acceptance speech (you know, for getting the Grammy for this year’s Best Rap Album)… after the jump!

Watch Redman “Rate The Bars” Of Some Of The Hottest Emcees (Video)
January 29, 2018
Okay, I will ‘disclaim’ it before B-E-T or even R-E-D can… all these spitters were not the hotness. But once again, there will be some moments where fave rappers’ rhymes get downgraded while otherwise mid-level wordsmiths’ rhymes get some shine.
Of course, he gave his own bars 5 out of 5 #JustSaying #NotMadTho

Skyzoo – “Baker’s Dozen” feat. Raheem Devaughn (Prod. By Apollo Brown)
January 29, 2018
The way this comes in, the beat and Raheem Devaughn singing vibe, has a “Devil’s Pie” feel to it, doesn’t it? And as expected, Skyzoo goes bad (meaning ‘good’) going in on the track. Apollo Brown genius on display again.

Angel City Chorale – “Africa” (Live Performance) [Video]
January 29, 2018
Yooooo! That thunderstorm opening though! I saw this in my Facebook stream and clicked play…and liked this choir’s page IMMEDIATELY… after I picked my jaw up off the floor. This is an amazing rendition of “Africa” fam. I will even embed the original Toto music video after the jump, just because.
Wow. Just wowwww!
I used to get hyped when classmates would cipher to music we beat out on school desks, lunchroom tables, gym bleachers, and bus seats. And when acts like Take 6 and Bobby McFerrin would go so hard acapella I’d swear there was instrumentation somewhere. Now, they have taken all that to the next level… orchestral though!

When you right, we right there with ya as long as you there on point. To that point, Jigga hit this on the nail here. Something must have happened in Donald Trump’s life for him to be this way. Been this way before he got in.
