She's hearing Map voices.

These are two songs i like. The reason I am posting them together is because the beginning of the songs are nearly identical.

Kweli Documentary trailer

Here is the original link from Okayplayer.com where I found this clip/article
___________________________________________________________

Posted by Shamz on Jul 24, 2008

This one came out of nowhere and definitely caught our attention quick! It's a four minute trailer for a documentary on Talib Kweli. In those four minutes there are a number of cameos from artists speaking on Kweli and his influence. Some of the faces we see in the trailer are ?uestlove, Kanye West, Mos Def, Dave Chappelle, De La Soul, Common, Jean Grae, Pharrell, Dame Dash and many more. The project is ongoing and was started in 1999. I have been told the editing is near complete. We'll be sure to let you know as soon as we get more details on this. Shout out Video Rahim, the films director and editor, for sending this one over.

The Art Of Story Telling Part 4

The only reason I'm posting this is for the first verse - Andre 3000's to be specific. In my opinion, certain mc's have the ability to take a beat to a higher level with their lyrical flow and style and 3000 is one of them. Others with similar attributes who are normally performing with a crew include Pep Love with Hieroglyphics, Posdnous in De La, Chali 2na in J5, Pfife Dog from TCQ
And this is a remix that's also nice

She goooood

Good grunts too!!

This is the essence of watching motor memory being built, before your very eyes, by the second.

"Muscle memory is a common term for neuromuscular facilitation, which is the process of the neuromuscular system memorizing motor skills. "

"......When an active person repeatedly trains movement, often of the same activity, in an effort to stimulate the mind’s adaptation process, the outcome is to induce physiological changes which attain increased levels of accuracy through repetition. Even though the process is really brain-muscle memory or motor memory, the colloquial expression "muscle memory" is commonly used. "

FEAST!!!!!!! [snickers]

This cracks me up. The concept is not entirely original but I enjoy the acting and some of the guys have great comedic timing.

The life of a cab dispatcher

http://blanktop.blogspot.com/
This is a good blog. The guy is a dispatcher for a cab company and some of his stories are hilarious.
Here is an example of one I found particularly enjoyable.
_________________________________________________________________

ME: Blank Top, your phone number please?
GUY: No I don't need a cab, I left a green backpack in one of your cabs Saturday night, and they said to call today and ask for lost and found.
ME: Sure, hold on a sec.

I transfer him. A few minutes later. . .

ME: Blank Top, your phone number please?
GUY: I'm the guy who left the bag in one of your taxis last Friday, but don't transfer me to lost and found again, nobody is picking up the phone there, so I want to talk to you, okay?
ME: Okay.
GUY: Now is there any way to find out if anybody turned in a bag?
ME: I wouldn't know, you'd need to talk to lost and found.
GUY: Why is nobody answering the phone there?
ME: Seeing as how it's after five they've probably gone home. Just leave a message and they'll get back to you, or call tomorrow during regular business hours.
GUY: Shit . . . Let me ask you something: if a driver finds a bag, will they open it and look in it? Or will your lost and found people open it?
ME: I guess, maybe. Maybe to see if there's anything in it that they can use to figure out who the bag belongs to, like a business card or something.
GUY: So they always do that?
ME: I don't know.
GUY: Okay, I need to leave STRICT instructions that if anybody turns in a green backpack with black trim, under no circumstances should it be opened, okay?
ME: . . . I wouldn't even know how or where to place a request like that.
GUY: I'm serious, if anybody opens this bag I will take it as an invasion of privacy and I'll sue.
ME: Look, I have no idea how I would even pass that along, alright? You can leave a message at lost and found if you want but . . .
GUY: (interrupting) I am letting YOU know RIGHT NOW that ANY SEARCH of that bag will be ILLEGAL, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!
ME: . . . Face it buddy, they're gone.
GUY: WHAT'S GONE?!
ME: Your drugs. Let them go man. They're gone.
GUY: WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT DRUGS?!
ME: Well I'm GUESSING drugs based on your wild paranoia about anybody opening the bag, and your talk of "illegal searches", not to mention your irrational anger, but I guess it could be lots of things; drugs, guns, pictures of naked twelve year olds. . . to be honest I can't WAIT to find out what it is!
GUY: YOU PEOPLE HAVE NO RIGHT TO GO LOOKING THROUGH OTHER PEOPLE'S PRIVATE PROPERTY!!!
ME: Hey, we're just trying to reunite bag with owner. You're the one who left a bag full drugs, guns, and pictures of naked twelve year olds in his taxi. Shoot, a fella could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.
GUY: . . . . . . . . . .
ME: I don't suppose you'd give me your name and address to make the cop's job easier would you?
GUY: (hangs up)

As usual, if this does get turned in and it's anything interesting I'll update.

The Roots - Whistler BC July 19, 2008.

So this weekend the 215 played in Whistler BC on top of Blackcomb mountain. One week prior I had gone to Vegas to catch them performing at the Hard Rock. Due to some unfortunate extreme donky'ness I wound up missing the first 45 minutes of the show. It is something I will never forgive myself for. Anyway, 7 days later I had the opportunity to redeem myself and made sure to be ready for the start of this show. I always enjoy the creative ways that they start and this one was perhaps one of the best I've seen so far.

So without further adieu. The Deuce Stick and Dynamite!!
Thanks for the video (Nico&Eme)

Common - Gladiator

Here is a good underground Common clip. I'm not sure the details on this show (City, Venue, etc) but I do know I dig the song and it's called Gladiator. It looks like he's just standing in the middle of a bar with a microphone. They don't even have a stage in there....

The power of music without words

More good tunes to give an ear to

This will be a tasty treat

I like the way he says "He'll NEVER know you're gone." You can tell that he changed the inflection in his voice to mimick that of an angry child. It's perfect. It sounds like he says "newwer" instead of never

Smack my pitch up

And this Minesweeper spoof cracks me up

2 Talib Kweli songs - unreleased

Two really good Kweli tracks - unreleased. They were made for the album Eardrum but did not make the album...or something like that

Me-I

They are such weirdos...and that's why they make good tunes. They are TV on the Radio and they are coming to Vancouver sooooon. :D


wolf like me


Just got back from Vegas where I had the privilege of seeing the legendary Roots crew for the 12th time in my history. Although I donked it and missed 45 minutes of the show (I don't wanna talk about it) it was everything I had hoped for and more. Great sound, great venue, good crowd. Luckily, since they will be in Whistler this Saturday, i will have a chance to redeem myself and see those coveted first 45 minutes. They generally have fantastic openings so I will be careful to catch it this time around.

TANKO@WORK / BLACK THOUGHT FROM THE ROOTS

This shit is tight. Same beat as Thought@Work, same chorus, different lyrics

The Powers that Be

.....You about a quarter inch away from fist in face
Your distant gaze makes me think your brain drifts away
To a land of wonder, only to awaken by the sound of cannon thunder

Boom Goes The Dynamite!

Boom Goes the Dynamite
