What's good folks? Every once and a while I post some home grown heat and today is no different. We have my Yadibox fam, Triple Nickels. Now some people post music because it is theirs but I post what's good. Honestly I don't like everything I've ever done even though some of my supporters and friends may argue that I haven't dropped a lame verse yet. With that being said I really love this track.
Triple Nickels (formerly the Rowdee Black Giants) have a dope cd coming out entitled "Homemade Grenades" and I was asked to be apart of it. Zilla Rocca carves a soulful path with this track as we discuss finding a way through this crazy world. If you like music with substance this is for you. Download it and bump this shit!
Triple Nickels - Find A Way (Produced by Zilla Rocca) f/ 2ew Gunn Ciz and Toke Jones

I found this footage of Barack Obama playing high school basketball. Apparently he was pretty good. On this historic day where I believe Senator Obama becomes President-Elect Obama, I figured tons of others will be blogging and video blogging and writing about why you should vote and blah blah blah. My vote is locked in. Im sure most people know who they will be voting for. I'd rather show you a funny ass clip of Obama in tight ass shorts grabbing boards and taking it to the rack for a breakaway layup. GoBama. I love that Obama called fora playoff system in college football and McLame talked about steroid usage. It goes to show who cares about what the average person and the average sports fan cares about and who is the same old politician tight ass talking about regulation and more blah blah blah. On a side note Sarah Palin won the chip in high school with her Wasilla Warriors. Hopefully after tomorrow she will take her self back to Wasilla and never come back. Okay, so here is the footage. Peace!
Check Obama's crossover on the OBalla Mixtape at 0:41 seconds! lol. This one has recent footage and Obama still has some skills. Imagine McCain in any athletic competition lol.
My bad Zilla. Steve "Zilla Rocca" Zales, 1/2 of Clean Guns, Co-Founder of Beat Garden Entertainment, Blog Rookie of the Year for "Clap Cowards", and not-so ghost producer extraordinaire dropped a gem on me. He remixed Crush Rock, originally produced by Rhythm J. The track received some moderate love over at Hiphopdx.com getting a little under 30,000 plays before the thirst for new music pushed it to the 4th or 5th pages of obscurity. Either way its a crowd fave at all my shows. I was watching football and browsing through my iTunes looking for a Reef the Lost Cauze track and I noticed this remix. I don't know what was going through my mind when Mr. Rocca sent this to me but I obviously overlooked a dope cut. Upon further review (perfect rhetoric for NFL Sunday) the ruling on the field is overturned. Sorry guys. Sometimes I just save as instead of instantly opening in iTunes. I love J's version but the beauty of this version is that besides the dope sample from "Top Yourself" by the Raconteurs, the lyrics can breathe. Reef, Nico, and M.O.G. went in and its obvious. The rock feel never left but those who slept and/or got lost in Rhythm J's heavy rock rendition of The White Stripes "Icky Thumb" can catch up with us as we trade bars and effectively Crush Rock. Enjoy.
The beauty of a blog is that once it is created, it never goes away (unless it is deleted), so if nobody knows I have one and only 3 people read it everyday or people do the usual and read something without leaving a trace of them having been their only later to tell you word for word the content of your blog or a lyric from your song. Argh! Now that's frustrating. I wish I could hand everyone in the world a copy of Tailgating but I can't. Some folks will catch on later. Shit, it will probably be a cult classic in 2049. With all that being said let me allow myself and Zilla Rocca to reintroduce himself and his CD, "Bring me the Head of Zilla Rocca". It's definitely worth the listen. guarantee there are songs on there everyone will enjoy regardless of hip-hop genre preference. (i.e. crack or back pack or mandex, etc.) He put together a dope little video with a backdrop that resembles a late night television show hosted by Conan O'Brien or some guy. Shouts to Jimmy Giambrone the young Nigel Barker slash James Cameron of Dangerous in Public.
I ran into the IIourshow Nigahrazzi and we had a nice little chat about music, performance, Obama and more. Check it out.
Also peep the video Thor TV put together for "North Philly" feat. DJ Bedtyme 357 off "Tailgaing: The 3 Second Rule"
Shout outs to Jason and Ian for the video footage. Check out Sico Syrus of Inasirkl Music Group killing it at the Beats on the Beach conference in Miami, Florida brought to you by iStandard, Inc. and DBHH Management. I fell back and let my fellow Philly representative do his thing and he murdered it. Check for Siconomics 2.5 coming real soon with the Spit it for Philly Remix featuring 2ew Gunn Ciz, Reed Dollaz and E Ness. Free the Queen. You see the shirt suckas!
