Event: Hip-Hop Stew Launch Party

Was checking out Techniques Radio on WREK.org last night and they got the word out on this Hop Stew Launch Party. Looks like a good look for the long weekend. Consider chilling and partying with a cause for at least part of this party weekend. More, much more, at HopStew.com but here’s a good blurb on the event…

Hop Stew Launch will be a fun-filled day party with performances from Hip-Hop legend El Da Sensei of The Artifacts, Shabaam Sahdeeq, John Robinson, Beneficence, Stahhr and Phoenyx. It’s going to be a boom bap extravaganza for true Hip-Hop lovers! Our launch will be hosted by Fort Knox! Music will be provided by DJ Dug Boogie and DJ Fudge. Patrons can enjoy an amazing art exhibit. Hop Stew will be donating a portion of all funds raised at launch to the Kidney Foundation. In 2016, our beloved Dug Boogie was diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) which there is no cure for. Boogie needs a kidney transplant. So, one can only imagine why The Kidney Foundation is a cause dear to our hearts. The launch is geared towards raising funds and awareness. Hop Stew is Hip-Hop for a cause!

Eloh Kush x Dus – “B-Boy Bonanza” feat. John Robinson x El Da Sensi x A.G. x Stahhr (Video)

Damn. That’s a strong lineup. AND L-L-LOOK! It’s StaHHr! She’s ’bout to snap on a track again! That alone was occasion enough for me to take a look-see (and listen). And I am glad I did, because for some who still sleep, this is my opportunity to share some real essence of way back. Boom bap or get slapped. This is Hip-Hop family. So, have a seat and belly up to these BARZ. “B-Boy Bonanza” – buffet of choice lyrics from Eloh Kush & Dus, featuring John Robinson, EL Da Sensi, A.G. (of D.I.T.C.)… and StaHHr with the shutdown verse. Just a bump off that “Angeldus” LP. Dope!

Hip-Hop perfection! John Robinson going with the low-key smooth energy for “Very Nice” (featuring Scienz of Life). Dope production by Count Bass D. Looks like a good launch for the Water The Plants brand, too. More on that…

Last Stop on the 4 Train: A Visit to the Masters (Documentary)

“Last Stop on the 4 Train” documents Jazz history by relating conversations and stories between three modern music gurus. The greats they celebrate as they ‘conversate’ – like Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Coleman Hawkins, Jackie McLean, Max Roach, Milt Jackson, and Lionel Hampton – have been laid to rest at what must be considered a shrine of the Jazz Masters, Woodlawn Cemetery. That’s where the train is going, the venue for the convo, though you will see the story reaches far beyond that. The music has no final resting place; and these guys’ stories breathe in new life and insight. Music greats are immortals; and the linkages and influence to and on Hip-Hop will be made clear and plain by the end of this train ride.

Artists and enthusiasts John Robinson (emcee, Jazz visionary), Thomas Simmons (Jazz radio DJ), and T.C. III (Jazz vocalist, son of Jazz legends Trudy Pitts and Bill “Mr. C” Carney) bring pedigree and passion to telling stories that should delight Jazz heads old and new; as well as the crate diggers out here. Start with the trailer/teaser above. Then hit the jump to get into parts 1 and 2 below.

Learn more and ride the line all the way out via the official site for the project http://www.laststoponthe4train.com.

Stahhr – “On My Gonzales” feat. John Robinson x Ekundayo (Video)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STAHHR!

On My Gonzales” is Atlanta-based mc/lyrical alchemist/DOOM affiliate staHHr’s latest video from her “Mother Nature with a Molotov: Molotov Season” album. Joined by lyrical heavyweights John Robinson (Scienz of Life) and Ekundayo (L.I.U.N.S. Den), the trio lace this Floyd the Locsmif track with clever wordplay, smooth delivery and quotables for days. The title of the song comes from a line in staHHr’s verse, where she coins the phrase “on my Gonzales” in reference to one “being focused, handling biz, doing their job, etc”. Director Nick Burnz interweaves elements of “Golden Era” hip hop with live performance footage, playing off of the organic energy of the song and the undeniable and familial chemistry of staHHr, JR and Ekundayo.”

Purchase “Molotov Season” here: www.stahhr.bandcamp.com
