Kardinal Offishall – We Gon’ Go (video)

Sound Session listeners will remember this track from a few months ago.  Great record from one of my favorites and one of the most underrated MC’s of all time.  Yeah, I said it.

You are not ready for my narration prowess!

But nah, in all seriousness…this documentary is super dope.  Be on the lookout for it on March 9th…shout to the fellas, Chris London, DRG Films, and everyone involved for letting me be a part of it.

It’s almost crazy to think that B.o.B hasn’t even dropped an official album yet. Fortunately that day is just a few months away, and until then we have this to hold us over. Alongside DJ Drama & DJ Sense he gives us the May25th mixtape. With guest appearances by J. Cole, fellow ’09 classmate Asher Roth, and more as well as production by Alchemist and Kanye this tape is sure to get a few plays on your iTunes.

Sound Session #244 (1-31-10)

Posted in Episodes, Sound Session on February 2nd, 2010 by Hyphen

Big shout to the homey MiC K!NG (formerly known as iCON The Mic King) for co-hosting this week’s episode of SNSS with us.  If you haven’t checked out his new project with Chum, what are you waiting for?

It’s always fun to kick it with cool folks, and when they happen to be dope MC’s on top of that, it’s even better.  That’s rare, by the way.  There’s generally an inverse relationship between your level of talent and how nice you are.  Hit me and I’ll give you some examples, if you can’t think of a few on your own…

Anyway, peep episode #244 for all sorts of dopeness and the debut of our new Throwback of the Week feature.  Sometimes we get a little tired of the new selections we pick from each week and we figured we could educate some of our listeners with a classic jawn each show.  If you don’t like this week’s pick, you might as well stop checking for SNSS cause “What They Do” is flawless.

Oh, and shout to Nneka for calling in as well.  Her Concrete Jungle album hits stores today and it’s already racking up great reviews left and right.  I’ve been rocking the album and her mixtape with J. Period a lot recently and all the praise is well deserved.  Get on the bandwagon now before it’s filled up!  Full interview coming soon (I feel like I say that every week…bah…gonna find some free time to get those online for y’all soon).
