14KT + Tall Black Guy – “Chop Field”
They way the song came about is as dope, if not doper, than the actual single itself! Let Tall Black Guy tell you the story behind “Chop Field” coming into being…
So one of the coolest experiences happened this weekend with my homie 14KT. While he was on his travel excursion across Europe, KT came to visit me in Norwich where I reside at the moment. This was our first time meeting in person after hearing about each others work and talking over the internet for the last few years. Whilst discussing ideas on how to make a new track, we decided to take our field recorders outside and record all kinds of sounds around the city of Norwich. This is a work in progress. Here’s what we came up with. Look out for the KT x TBG collabo coming in the near future. Peace!!

We rock with Brenk Sinatra on here. Just don’t get to do it as often. But here’s a nice shiny gem. Visuals for the producer’s beat tape download – “Midnite Ride” (available now) – embedded above. Kinda dark, like midnight… like CSI at midnight.
Paris – “Night Of The Long Knives” (Video)
Fans of Hip-Hop’s Golden Era will remember and likely raise a fist to this. Paris is one of the revolutionary rappers of that time that spoke the truth of police brutality and fired listeners’ political passions. Past the rally, just short of riotous revolt; that’s where P-Dog lay on the spectrum. The NWA “F## The Police” and Public Enemy “Fight The Power” energy? Yeah… add a Molotov Cocktail and machine guns… that’s Paris on the hunt for abusive police and oppressive policymakers then AND now.
Of course, someone will gripe that Paris has not changed his tune for 25 years. Well, the conditions that fuel his style of rhyme have not changed. Those things he rhymes about exist in today’s Era, still; they were not left in the 1990s. Tell them that. Better, just have them watch the “Night Of The Long Knives” video above. Maybe have them click below and grab a copy of “Pistol Politics” as an extended text on the subject matter.

Illa J Speaks On His Upcoming Self-Titled LP, The Downside To Being J Dilla’s Brother And More (Video)
Allow Detroit’s Illa J to reintroduce himself (in the radio interview above, and with his album linked below). He is very much and very proud to be the brother of the late great J Dilla. The challenges or having expectations on his shoulder; they’d come anyway. He pushes hard to earn. But being seen as just ‘some dude flowing over Dilla beats,’ or as some Slum Village hanger-on… nah, miss him with that.

The Internet – “Get Away” (Video)
Haaaa! Syd’s gonna let her ladies drive her damn crazy. Naaah, never that (hopefully); just blow smoke and chill in the cloud. Sure, but how is it that her and the band (The Internet always got each other) are in this video WILDIN’ to what seems to be a mellow trance song experience. Dunno, but the end result is pretty good. Check out the visuals above and the link to an earlier post to get hits like “Get Away” on their latest project “Ego Death” (out now).
