Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

In my previous post (DJ CXL Appreciation Post – Part 1) I mainly spoke about CXL’s DJ Routines and battle career. In this post I’ll like to talk about his mixing. CXL’s mixing is the shit. The guy is usually on point and on fire everytime (apart from when he is completely smashed haha) and [...]

Wankers Who Call Their Compilation A Mixtape

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

This is something which really pisses me off and I thought i’d quickly shed my point of view on the topic. I am sick of artists who jump on the thoughtless bandwagon of calling their Compilation of songs a Mixtape. It takes away the shine of the DJ and totally removes something that only the [...]

Everyday Im Hustlin, Everyday Im Hustlin, Everyday Im Hustlin……… P-Money has made up some mean New Era style caps and flicking them off on Trademe.

Excuse the quality of the clip below, as Spell did it on his phone. The audio came out good enough to hear and he still capture himself giving a nice “fuck you” to the camera. Spell has definitely been on practise mode and he smashes it quite hard in this clip. Props to the dude, [...]

I found this on Nah Right and couldn’t resist posting this up. Two of the most greatest Hip Hop Producers of all time on stage together live would be amazing to see. This Video only features Premier, and he plays Nas Is Like and then drops A Million And One Questions by Jay-Z. Both tracks [...]
