- Tuesday, December 29th

Hope everyone's holiday has been nice and relaxing. Just two more days of 2009, and I'm so ready to see it gone. There were so many great and important things that happened this year, but it was just hard hard hard, and I'm looking forward to the "clean slate" that the New Year promises to bring... Peace, party people haha, see ya later.

BREAKBEAT TUESDAY - That's right, it's been renamed to match the new day I'm going to be dropping the jawns on. Considering that 2 out of the 3 days I've done "Breakbeat Monday" on have been Tuesday, it's only right. Okay let's get to it.

Everyday People "I Live What I Like" (GRT Canada, 1971)

Everyday People was the brainchild of Canadian guitarist Bruce Wheaton, and "I Like What I Like" is the leadoff song of their self-titled debut and only record, released in 1971. I don't think this record is "rare" per se, nor is it really a full-fledged "break beat" in the truest sense of the word. However I thought this would be a cool addition considering the the lane I've been in for the past few weeks.

I used to have a ritual which was, on Friday nights before my gig, go down to Philadelphia Record Exchange off of South Street, drink a beer or two with the dudes, while they played records - and pulled joints specifically for me. One Friday night in the summer, Tony V passed this record off to me saying "Hey Cos this is something you might like." I did, and I gripped it, only to have it get lost within the 15,000+ records that I had spread out between Brooklyn and my mom's house. This summer though, me and the wife were heading to Costco and we were listening to a Hot 97 all-mix weekend and Grandmaster Flash was in a live all-breaks mix. He played this record, and it was the only time that I've heard it played out before, or since, other than when I've played it. Guess me and Flash were on to something haha...

Apparently "I Like What I Like" was actually a pretty big record in the gay disco scene back in 1972, which predates the "four on the floor" innovations of Baker, Harris & Young and lends itself more to the Mancuso / Siano school of "party music." Anyway, enjoy!

BONUS BEAT

Lee Michaels "Tell Me How Do You Feel / (Don't Want No) Woman / My Friends / Frosty's / Think I'll Go Back"

One of my favorite dollar-bin records of all time. I have a tendency to always buy this for a dollar when I see it, and then give it away to someone who doesn't have it or who has never heard it, only to buy it again, repeat, rinse, etc... It's the musical equivalent to what I always end up doing with this book.

My homie DJ B.Cause just came out with a Zapp / Roger Troutman tribute mix CD. I don't think I can endorse this enough B.Cause is a fantastic DJ and also the dude that gave me my first gig in San Francisco. This is top quality stuff. You can grab this mix, as well as lots more, on his blog Diamonds In The Dust.

And finally, since this will probably be the last update for 2009, we've decided to let loose the acclaimed The Rub "It's The Motherf**king Remix Volume 3" for free download. It's available here on The Rub website, so make it happen baby... Peace!

It's December 25th, 2009 - Happy James Brown Day!!!

Three years ago today, The Godfather Of Soul, the man who is responsible for ALL OF THIS, Left The Planet. He left behind the most incredible and influential body of work of the 20th century, single-handedly creating the blueprint for pop music landscape that we know today. Damn right he was somebody, and damn right I am somebody.

Now normally I don't like to commemorate someone's life on the day that they've Left The Planet but in the case of The Amazing Mr. Please Please Himself his moving on in a sense didn't make me sad per se but in essence became the exclamation point on his amazing career. It made me reflect on the influence that he had on my life, and made me realize how much his presence on this earth has enriched my life and everything and everyone around me. And so for the past two years, on December 25th I've celebrated James Brown Day! It's a day of loving life, living for love, and generally GETTING IT TOGETHER!

Cosmo Baker "The Land Of Milk & Honey With James Brown"

I did this mix for the Mad Decent podcast just a few days after The Minister Of New New Super Heavy Funk went and Left The Planet. Just a few joints by him and his friends. I'll let Diplo say the rest:

"James Brown died on Christmas, and I couldn’t do any more podcasts til we did it about him. Cause James Brown gave birth to this podcast and he gave birth to everything in modern music - nothing is the same after he was here and now he’s gone and I feel bad for people in heaven that have to rewind through his life cause it must be pretty damn nuts. This mix of JB songs and production credits is under 30 minutes and I thought I was listenin' to it for 3 days before it ended. Mix was done by Cosmo Baker... he’s a true hero to me. I used to go to Fluid on Monday nights to check Cosmo at his party called Remedy... It was on fuckin' Monday nights and it was packed thick and Cosmo would drop his signature style of hip hop and classics and weird stuff no one would expect but would turn it out... I recognized Cosmo as that dude from the On The Go video that was in 9th St. Records and bought Funk INC. and McCoy Tyner LPs for like a dollar (that was crazy staged cause I know that dude behind the counter was mad cheap!)... At The Remedy I saw everyone from Phill The Soulman to Cash Money to MF Doom to DJ Drama up in there playing... I even slipped Pharrell a copy of Newsflash on 12” on a Monday. So JB gave birth to everything in modern music then Cosmo was a dude that gave birth to DJs like me. I had to ask him to do this mix cause he was a more then a mentor... his James Brown science is like Mr. Wizard... As you can listen these days Cosmo is killing it as a member The Rub in BK and doing loads of parties from Calgary to Tel Aviv on the weekends so I suggest you go to see him play or you will lose a little bit of your soul..." - Diplo, 2007

James Brown feat. Fred Wesley & The J.B.'s

"Damn Right I Am Somebody (Love & Happiness) A Tribute To Disc Jockeys & Radio Stations"

Also here's a little tribute that I got hipped to by my main man Matthew Africa. It's an alternative take of "Damn Right I Am Somebody" where the band vamps out on Al Green's "Love & Happiness" while thanking all the disk jockeys at all the radio stations across the country. I was very happy to hear when he mentioned WDAS in his rap. So with James and company thanking their supporters, I would like to thank my supporters, and wish everyone a very happy James Brown Day!

On a side note, here's a collection of  raunchy X-Mas songs that were compiled my my man Elion Paz for his website DustAndGrooves.com. We all thought of the funniest and steamiest holiday songs in our collection and me, Monk One, Larry Grogan and more posted them up. Check it out - Santa Stole My Vinyl: A Mixtape For A Dirty X-Mas Experience

So how about that weather, huh? Hahah, well this past weekend I actually got stuck in Miami beach so I missed the big NY snowfall. It always sucks being stuck out of town, but South Beach is really not a bad place to be stuck, no not at all. Both parties I did down there were off the chain. Big shouts to everyone that I linked up with - Sam Baum, Jeremy Spund, the Opium Group and Louis crews, Jake Jefferson, the homie Raul, DJ Elle, Craze, Joel, Joel, DJ Jessica Who and last but not least my main man DJ Contra (who played one of the most enjoyable to listen to sets I've heard in a while.) Pictures soon to come, and thanks, Miami. I'll see you all in a couple months.

Charlie Wilson (of  The Gap Band) has a new record out and it's on fire. This is that schitt that I'm talmbout. Dude has always been one of my favorite R&B singers and this new joint is right one time. Saying, this is the way that you stay relevant. Dude does the classic sound with a 2009 twist. Gotta love that. Keep doing the damn thing, Uncle Charlie.

Charlie Wilson "Zoom"

BREAKBEAT MONDAY - Aaight well technically it's Tuesday but Mother Nature and Delta Airlines just wouldn't let a brother live. So anyway here's the latest jawn that I'm fusking with. I just recently put it on my latest Scion Radio mix so you should hear that coming soon-sish, but here's the raw.

Surprize "Sweet Love" (East Coast, 1971)

Aaight I'm definitely staying in my "rock breaks" crate for the first couple of these installments but I figured that I would lace this one cause I've learned to love this song in its entirety lately, not just the drums. It's really got a great schmaltzy sounding whiteboy blues thing happening, that I used to hate but now find kind of endearing in its corniness and it's heart. But you just have to love these drums, they smack so incredibly hard, courtesy of  Surprize's drummer Fred Kieffer. I don't know much else about this group except I know that it's a relatively Philly local private press (think these cats were out of Cherry Hill maybe...) That local connection was preserved when The Roots used these drums as the basis of their jawn "Clones" (one of favorite Roots tunes to this day.) It was actually my homie Tony Larson  AKA TripleDouble that put me up on this record about 10 years ago, around the time when him and Diplo first got around to recording the first AEIOU tape. Diplo is out there doing his thing and Tony is still holding it down strong for the West Philly massive. Peace to both you dudes hahah. Good times...

Before I get out of here, I can't forget that continuing on in the season's spirit of giving, here's another fantastic mix by my brother-from-another-mother, Texas' own MattSoReal. And when I say "fantastic" I mean this schitt right here is really throwed! And it includes speacial holiday greetings from me and your man Killer Mike. So peace to Matt and the rest of the Texas massive.

AustinSurreal.com Presents MattSoReal "Dark Christmas - The Other Side Of Christmas"

- Wednesday, December 16th

So this is day three of a week long attempt to attend as many holiday parties as possible. Hit up the OkayPlayer.com jawn last night (and reconnected with a grip of my old Philly friends) and then slid through Greenhouse for that jawn. To my surprise, The Diabolical Biz Markie was spinning the set. It was the first time I've ever heard him spin, and honestly it was highly entertaining and not "terrible" like I've been said his sets were for so long. I mean COME ON, it's The Biz! Anyway, tonight is my wife's holiday party and  it's going to be crazy. Trust me, they're lawyers and lawyers go harder than any of your average club-goers. This weekend I'll be in Miami at Louis. Should be pretty popping, and it's been too long since I've been in the 305. That being the case, I'll be missing most of the weekend holiday parties, but if I was in town I would definitely be here.

In the holiday spirit of giving, here's two great mixes done by two great dudes and DJs. The first one is by my homie Rob Pursey from London. Rob is a great dude and knows his tunes like nobody else. He is one of the dudes who runs the Southern Hospitality blog, which I did my all vinyl "Twelve 12s" mix for a little while ago. Anyway this mix is a bunch of tunes that he's feeling at the moment. Nothing crazy on the mix tip, minimal blending and whatnot, just quality music.

Rob Pursey "Some Records I Like" (via www.southernhospitality.co.uk)

Another mix is from my homie DJ Pump from up north in Canada. I don't know if you know but Canada has got some pretty incredible DJs, and Pump is kind of at the top of that class. Check out his James Brown battle routine to see how he gets down... Anyway, dude is dude and  really rocks that schitt proper. This is is new mix that kind of goes all over the place but always stays funky. Plus he includes the Uptown record that I posted about in an earlier post, as well as my favorite record of the moment - the Aeroplane remix of Lindstrøm & Christabelle "Baby Can't Stop"

DJ Pump "Truth Mix December 2009" (via theehteamdjs.blogspot.com)

BREAKBEAT MONDAY - So I had the idea to start this thing called Breakbeat Monday showcasing a record that's a monster drum break. I own a lot of records (almost as many as I have on MP3 format hahah) and they run the gamut from hip-hop to rock to jazz to comedy records. Some I've used for sampling, some I've used for DJing, some I just listen to and some I don't even like but just have because I'm a borderline completionist. But at the end of the day, I have such a weakness for a dirty old monster break beat. There's nothing like it in the world.

The group Love, helmed by the unique Arthur Lee, was an L.A. based psychedelic rock band that was best known for the landmark album "Forever Changes" (a must cop if you don't have it already.) They had a unique musical fingerprint, thanks to their diverse pool influences and their incredibly witty songwriting, and in my opinion they actually captured the darker side of the late 60s hippy L.A. scene better than any other group. I often think of "Forever Changes" as "Sergeant Pepper's" evil yet misunderstood twin. Needless to say, it's one of my favorite albums of all time, by one of my favorite groups.

In 1969 when Lee was at the pinnacle of his creative talent he released "Out There" which is a towering tour-de-force showcasing the multitudes of styles dude could hit on. One of which is "Doggone" which is a groovy song that starts in the folk realm, moves to the rock world and then takes a far-out trip to a crazy jazz drumming solo, provided by George Suranovich. George really starts to go in around the 3:08 mark, but when 4:54 comes around he channels the craziest BOOM BAP schitt you've ever heard. I know a grip of people sampled this, specifically Kanye West for Talib Kweli's "Get By" but honestly I don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing these drums.

Love "Doggone"  (Blue Thumb, 1969)

Also, I want to send a shout to my big sister Zoe Strauss for winning the The 2009 Philebrity Award for General Faboulousness. Jeah, you know what it is. The familial worldwide takeover has, and will continue to be in full effect. Let's go!

By the way, speaking about the takeover, Scion Radio is now available on your iPhones and iPods via this great application that was just launched. It's really time to step into the future, my dudes and dudettes. I swear, I don't own an iPhone and I am seriously considering getting one now that I know I can get all the freshest jams at all times and in all places. Check out all the flavor below... Whoop whoop!

I was thinking about my post yesterday, specifically about how stale a lot of rhyming can be these days. Again, I'm not one of them dudes that's on some "I need to hear some super-scientifical" steez and all that. But I definitely like to have a little fiber with my meal so to speak. I mean come on dudes, for real? At least can I get some FLOW?

 

Anyway, I was listening to the record "Dope On Plastic" by Uptown in preparation for an upcoming project I'm working on, and specifically I was checking the acapella from the 12" and I really got caught by the dude's flow. It's a definitely late 80s / early 90s New York battle style rhymes that lends itself to one of the masters of that era, MC Shan. I really don't know much about Uptown other than after he dropped this record he went on to be one of the rappers in Branford Marsalis' jazz / hip-hop hybrid project "Buckshot LeFonque." Check the record though. I always thought it was pretty fresh, based around the Kool & The Gang "Give It Up" drum break.

 

Uptown "Dope On Plastic" (Tommy Boy, 1989)

Now if you really want to talk about the king of the cocky, nasal, semi-slurring your words rhyme flow, it has to be MC Shan. I guess Shan was considered the top guy in the Juice Crew, at least for the first couple years before Big Daddy Kane and Kool G Rap and them came into their own and kind of put Shan's head to bed. But I always loved Shan's rhymes and, more specific, his flow. He kind of  had this super arrogance-but-I-can-back-it-up thing that came through that was pretty awesome. I think he really came into his own on his second album, the kind of slept-on "Born To Be Wild."

MC Shan "I Pioneered This" (Cold Chillin', 1988)

But I think the dude who really rocked this flow the best was one of my hometown heroes, the one and only almighty Cool C. Cool C was at one point probably the top Philly rapper and not only could he go toe to toe with anyone in the city, he went at the Juice Crew and Shan in a short-lived rivalry. It's crazy to me to hear a dude that sounds just like MC Shan dissing MC Shan. I'm not saying, I'm just saying. Anyway, dude was the shit, even later on when him and Steady B formed the short lived group C.E.B.

The interesting thing about the above video is the terrible similarities to the events that unfolded about 3 years later, when Cool C, Steady B and Snuka were all charged with the murder of the first female Philadelphia police officer in a botched bank robbery. Really sad stuff, and a really dark time for Philly hip-hop. I remember writing an article for On The Go when this was all transpiring. Lord, i really don't wantto read that article if I can ever find it. It's probably condemning materialism in hip-hop and talking about how we got to "get back to the essence" and "keep it real" and all that malarky. Then again maybe I did have some points and all...

Anyway, here's a great Cool C record originally released in 1988, the high point of his and the Hilltop Hustlers career. Also to this day, I have always been down to rock those particular Alpina sunglasses that were hugely popular in Philly at that time. I never actually had a pair because I couldn't afford them and, even if I could, I doubt I would wear then out that much in fear of them getting snatched right off my dome.

Cool C "Down To The Grissle" (City Beat, 1988)

 

The other ulterior motive of me making today's post was to test out the nifty little DivShare imbedding featured that I think I'm going to start implementing.

Here's two newly released interviews that were recorded earlier this year. One is with Brooklyn's own Runaway and the other is with the French re-edit phenom Pilooski. Check it out, check it out...

I was talking Eli last night about how everyone big-ups all these new rappers who really can't rap for schitt. I don't get it, really. I mean I like new schitt as much as the next person but I'm not going to try to paint it as something that it's not. He said "Being literate is not happening right now" and then thought that maybe there's a lack of appreciation for older schitt if you haven't lived though it. But I was like like nah son just cause I didn't live though Count Basie means I'm gonna call him wack. "Yo B that Mozart shit is old son, it's CORNY..." I don't know, just some thoughts and whatnot. Anyway, fusk it. I'm just saying I wanna hear some RAPPING...

Here are some real stellar photos by my man Kenny Rodriguez. It's much more than just your average "party / club night" photos though, as Kenny had the great idea to shoot the club from load-in to clean-up. Some great images from a very talented dude. Make sure to check him out at Doobevision.com

My main man Chino just hipped me to these videos, one featuring assorted scenes around Philly from 1983 and the other featuring interviews of some legendary graffiti writers (basically the dudes that influenced me to become a writer.)

Some incredible footage on here, including a fine discussion about the difference between punk rock and "hamburger music." This is basically the streets that I ran as a kid. So much has changed, it's really incredible. As an aside, I remember that old guy that was playing the spoons. Dude used to be at 4th and South all the time.

This schitt is so banging. Estro was basically the dude who single-handedly  inspired me to write. I even bit his whole name and style to begin with (Astro hahah...) Anyway, big up to all those early writers that sparked the flame for me: Estro, Clyde, Clyde, Pez, E-Z, Pizazz, Mr. Blint, Deadhead, Credit, Jay-Cee, MB, Suroc, Razz, Breeze, Brask, Tan, Japan, Kozmo, Pap & Brez (my local neighborhood kings). Fusk Anti!


Speaking of Chino him and Sacha Jenkins of Ego Trip released the sequel to last year's Piecebook: The Secret Drawings Of Graffiti Writers and this one is called Piecebook Reloaded: Rare Graffiti Drawings, 1985-2005. Highly recommended and you should cop several, for gifts and also for the head. Grab it here off of Amazon.com

The ill Doves FC TC5 panel is just one of many joints in this book that will make your face melt. Peace to my WAB / ICY / MSP folls and idots and to Espo and Ari.

So this week we lost another giant in Music, the one and only Monty Stark. Obviously Monty didn't have a name that was as universally recognizable as say a Michael Jackson or a DJ AM, but for those who are involved in this music thing like I am, "this thing of ours," he was a tremendous talent and visionary. I first heard his music through the record digging circles, in particular the watermark reinventing masterpiece "The Stark Reality Discovers Hoagy Carmichael's Music Shop."

Now I say "heard his music" but to be more accurate it was more like "heard ABOUT his music" since the above shown record goes for $1000 easy. I still have yet to get a copy, or even find a proper rip of it for listening purposes. That all changed when Egon over at Stones Throw was able to contact Monty and helped him release the "Now" record as well as the "1969" plate with some then unreleased cuts. Here's a great and in-depth interview that Egon had with Monty which talks more about his life and work.

I didn't really know Monty that well but we talked a few times on the Soulstrut message board. He was really amazing man to me, always remaining humble and grounded and with a great perspective on music and work and life and the way all three of those things intertwine. It really makes me think about how blessed I am to be able to make a living and support my family off of this music thing...

Plus, Monty was a bad motherfusker. There's something about his music that resonated so deeply with me. I don't know what it is, but whenever I hear a Stark Reality piece, I'm instantly transported back to a time when I'm 5 years old. For lack of any other way of describing it, it's that "happy/sad Sesame Street multi-colored sweater hippy schitt" that is such an integral part of the fabric of my character. I'll just leave it at that. Rest east, Mr. Stark, and thanks for your contribution to the universe.

Speaking about music that reminds you when you were a kid, recently I've been all over these Taj Mahal tunes. His album "The Natch'l Blues" was one of those LPs in the stacks at my house when I was a kid that I never listened to. I think it was maybe because the back cover had a photo of Mr. Mahal that at the time I found really scary, all mean looking, smoking while glaring at me from behind those shades, all attitude. Immediately I would put that record down in search of my Electric Company album. Years later as an adult, I discovered the tune "The Cuckoo" that had the Gang Starr break and I thought to myself "Damn, I've been sleeping on this song for basically my entire life." Big choone. Also, I've been messing with the tune "Corina" for a hot minute too, and even put it on my "Still Good" mix.

Taj Mahal "Corinna" (Colombia, 1971)

Taj Mahal "The Cuckoo" (Colombia, 1971)

Now I was never all into the blues, even though I have them, and that's where all of this music we fusk with comes from. Problem is when you hear "blues" too often it's what my wife likes to call "Movie Blues" a la "Blues Hammer" (pickin' cotton all day long...) But you know, it's good to stay up on just some old authentic schitt. Taj Mahal is an interesting dude to say the least, and he has some very thoughtful insight into his views regarding the paralells between blues and rap, and the consumption and / or lack thereof of both by white and black audiences:

"Eighty-one percent of the kids listening to rap were not black kids. Once there was a tremendous amount of money involved in it . . . they totally moved it over to a material side. It just went off to a terrible direction." Mahal also believes that some people may think the blues are about wallowing in negativity and despair, a position he disagrees with. According to him, "You can listen to my music from front to back, and you don't ever hear me moaning and crying about how bad you done treated me. I think that style of blues and that type of tone was something that happened as a result of many white people feeling very, very guilty about what went down." - Wikipedia Page

We got a new Rub Radio up this month... This installment has Italo-disco wunderkinds RCMP open up their deep crates with a mix on Rub Radio this month, and get on the mic for a lesson in their local Pittsburgh dialect. For more on RCMP visit YoungRobots.com. And as always, the rubbers (Cosmo Baker, DJ Eleven and DJ Ayres) blaze through sets of hip-hop, soul, house and everything funky. To listen, click on the Scion Rub Radio widget in the upper right-hand corner of this page, or just click here.

Yo check this Funkadelic promo for Cosmic Slop out. schitt is wicked. Need some of whatever they messing with haha... P-Funk, the best to have ever done it, that's my word. Shout to Hayz & Espo.

Two new-ish mixes that I'm feeling these days, and are perfect for the change in the weather. The first one is the one and only Soulman's "Beautiful" with lots of really groovy folk and psychedelic rock cuts - or should I say CHOONES - that are impeccably selected by one of the masters of digging. It's very reminiscent of my own "Still Good" mix from a few years ago. Also make sure you read his notes on it - very thought provoking.

Soulman "Beautiful" - found at Soulman's That Real Schitt

The next is "Flight School Volume 2" done by my homies the one and only  DJ Yoda and his partner in crime DJ Tobe$. They hold it down in the UK and are great DJs and whatnot, and this is their series where they take nothing but butter 80s R&B breaks and cut them to pieces. Really good and groovy listening, with a sound that's right up my alley.
