DJ Khaled LOVES McDonald’s.

Posted by knobbzXL

DJ Khaled took to the airwaves to hype up the Dollar Menu and sausage biscuits as only he can.

Part 1: DJ Khaled on the Dollar Menu

Part 2: DJ Khaled on sausage biscuits

If Khaled ever gets tired of making (making?) music, he could make a killing as one of those guys who stands on the street and tries to get you to eat at their restaurant.

K-Murdock’s SubSoNiQ Instru-mentals: June Edition.

Posted by AaronM

I was recently hipped to Panacea producer K-Murdock’s blog Neosonic Productions by an ML reader. Murdock, besides being a dope producer, also does a monthly mix of instrumentals on his radio show, SubSoNiQ Instru-mentals. Here’s the latest episode, with beats by DJ Spinna, Flying Lotus, Madlib, J Dilla and more. The instrumental selection is choice and the mixing is nice, making this mix perfect for mellowing out during the last few hours of sun. Vibe to this.

GW Radio’s Funkadelic Freestyles airs it semester finale tonight at 9pm, which you can stream at gwradio.com. If you aren’t farmilar with the show, it’s pretty much has become the go-to radio show of anything dope going on in DC area’s underground hip hop scene.  One of the hosts happens to be the always hilarious Jay Promo, who was in the building alongside Wale & ML for that infamous Capitals game. ML is scheduled to bum-rush the broadcast, so tune in.

Comcast Town TV commercials.

Posted by Dj01

These jingles have officially infiltrated my mind! It was bound to happen, I turn on the radio-they are there.. watch tv- they are there, now I’m in some hypnotized state where I can’t stop humming along to them whenever I hear them (remembering the words is OD for me, I only mess with the hook/tag line at the end). This almost makes me hate comcast a little less (I will never forget having some 7(!!) techs coming to my house in a span of a month during my senior year of HS, one of which told me the reason for my modem dropping off was “that Mozilla”). There is a bunch of them, but here are my favorites:


Dancing remote with a squirrel on the dome, penguins, chariots, you can’t hate


This one I dig because I want my life to be kind of like this, picture me rollin in a drop top with a squirrel in the back.

Lauryn Hill – Lost Ones (Live in London, ‘99).

Posted by knobbzXL

(image source)

L. Boogie shuts down London with the assistance of a live band circa February 14th, 1999. Lauryn remains among my all-time favorite female rappers and undoubtedly the crown jewel on The Fugees’ classic album, The Score. Also, I included the original for you smart dumb cats*.

John Forte, Wyclef and Pras Feestyle for Funkmaster Flex, ‘97.

Posted by knobbzXL

The Score remains one of my all-time favorite albums. Here’s John Forte, Wyclef and Pras rhyming for an amazing 20 minutes for Funkmaster Flex in 1997. Last year, then-president George Bush commuted John Forte’s 14 year jail sentence. Moral of the story? Make friends with Carly Simon.

We posted their video for “Mirando” back in July. My friend Jesse recently interviewed Mike and Evan of Ratatat for his radio show and podcast, the Sound of Young America. I’ve featured the show a few times before on the site, and his interviews are always worth a listen.

Stream the interview here or download it at the TSOYA website.

Ol’ Dirty Bastard Freestyle For Funkmaster Flex, ‘96.

Posted by knobbzXL

Peep this old ODB freestyle he did for Funkmaster Flex in 1996. Dirty goes in on the “Broken Language” beat like no other. My favorite part is when he mentions “The Count of Monte Crisco”. His interview is cut off at the end, which is heartbreaking.
