Producer/emcee Oh No is serving yet another shot of dope music for your enjoyment. “Dues N Don’ts” is a cut from the “Ohnomite” album (out now). It features Oh No himself handling biz (the “Dues”), the legendary Phife Dawg (of A Tribe Called Quest) spitting a dope verse (the “Don’ts”), and singer Jose James vocalizing to fill in the grooves of the groove.

Phife Dawg, Maseo Of De La Soul, & Skilled B-Boys Represent For Puma At ‘The Mid’ In Chicago (Video)
March 14, 2012
On March 2nd in Chicago, Puma held a special B-Boy competition & in-store with Phife Dawg of A Tribe Called Quest, Maseo Of De La Soul, & live instrumentalist, DJ, & producer AraabMuzik. Phife Dawg took the time to sign autographs for fans before launching into a 7-8 song performance at The Mid & was later joined by Maseo of De La Soul who hopped on stage to rock with Phife for a few joints. DJ Rasta Root served as the DJ for the evening alongside Maseo before producer AraabMuzik performed a set doing live beat creations & remixes on his beat machine. The video directed by Konee Rock is expertly edited but condensed down & many parts of what took place that night were left on the digital cutting room floor. Overall the turnout was great & it was definitely a good day in Chi-town.

Classic Clips: The Roots and A Tribe Called Quest Freestyle
February 8, 2012
Illadeph meets QB in this freestyle featuring Rahzel on the beat, with Black Thought, Consequence and Phife Dawg on the mics. As usual, Rahzel kills the beatbox while Ali Shaheed Muhammed and Questlove chill and groove to the beat. Would’ve been nice to hear what Q-Tip had to say, though. Guess time was up on Lorna’s Corner.

Phife Dawg Goes ‘Behind The Shield’ with The Oakland Raiders (Video)
December 7, 2011
The homie Phife Dawg of the legendary A Tribe Called Quest is a straight up Philadelphia Eagles & New York Jets fan. Sometimes I’d clown the Phifer that he needs to just go on ahead & join the Raider Nation although I’m not mad at him supporting my hometown Eagles. Even though personally I’m a true Raiders fan. As a part of his duties with his new podcast for the NFL Network, Phife who splits time between Oakland & Atlanta, stopped by the Raiders practice facility & spoke with Raiders in house reporter & cheerleading coordinator Jeannette Thompson about his feelings on the Raider organization. Phife spoke on what he likes about the Raiders, the global Raiders fans he’s met, & more. Watch the video at the link below or click on the photo but make sure you watch it to the very end of the interview because Jeannette stumps Phife for a few moments when she asks him if they “Can Kick It?”….Hahaaaaa!!!

Phife Dawg Performs In London & Pays Tribute To Heavy D (Video)
November 22, 2011
My homies Phife Dawg, Snax, & DJ Rasta Root were out on tour in Europe & during Phife’s sold out show in the UK he mentioned a few things that raised quite a few eyebrows from fans who were in attendance that tweeted about the show. Phife mentions that when he was sick & in the hospital back in 1992 there were only two rap artists at the time that called him to see if he was well & one of those was Heavy D. Phife also mentions that Jive records failed to clear the Lou Reed sample on one of A Tribe Called Quest’s biggest hits “Can I Kick It” so therefore they have never seen any money from the song over the years.

Remembering JAX: Phife Dawg, DJ Rasta Root & Jax In Japan 2003 (Video)
May 24, 2011
Rest in Peace to one of my favorite artists based out of Atlanta & good friend JAX. The homie DJ Rasta Root recently uncovered some footage from 2003 on their tour with Phife Dawg to Japan….
“In 2003, Jax, Phife and I travelled to Japan for the ‘Smokin Needles Japan Tour. It was a pleasure going over there with Jax and seeing how excited he was to be in Japan. All he kept saying was, ‘I’m in Japan’. Almost like trying to tell himself over and over that it was true. With the hardships of being on tour, early flights..lost luggage and occasional language barriers, none of that seemed to matter while Jax was around..he made jokes out of everything, and kept the tour fun and light. I miss him dearly, and count myself blessed to have crossed his path.”
Thank you Jax Forever King.
- DJ Rasta Root
