MP3:L.e. For the Uncool-The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street


MP3:L.e For The Uncool-The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street

Columbus emcee Le for the Uncool gives a quick follow-up the Measure.
This quick 15 minute ep is produced by J Rawls, Path, Rashad Thomas, & Grimmface and guests the Milk N Syrup guys. Somehow it manages to ask people pay homage, have lo-fi moments, referance Malcolm X, bring the X-Files to Harlem in Mobb Deepish story form, announce that Le is a hood dude that has taste instead being a “hype beast” and end with soul sample driven love song..

The second song, thePath joint, was seriously made on Wednesday, cause Meta4ce and i shot thru the session after hitting the Vegan Potluck at the St. James Tavern. Fabrshay-A is on the song not Meta. And Fab rips it. It was cool to see a few rappers trade stories and different time periods of Columbus rap.

Columbus rap is doing well, b.

You have to give to Pete here. He is getting all these respected rappers on his project on the strength that he can rap.
The song is basically each rappers coming age story.

More Atlanta footage

Stalley and Rashad Thomas of the 3rd performing “Slap” off of the upcoming ((ITM)) mixtape. Picture Stalley rollin’.
The recorded sound isn’t perfect but at the same time but between the beat and the hook it reminds you that Rashad is really talented.

MP3:Fabrashay A feat Zerostar and Le For The Uncool-My City(Produced By Path)

MP3:Fabrashay A Ft Zerostar and Le For the Uncool-My City (produced by Path)

In the greatest team-up since KMD’s and Brand Nubian’s “Nitty Gritty” Milk N Syrup, and Weightless are on the same track. Okay is nothing like that song but it is still nice to think about.
The song is produced by Path from All Eyes Path. It starts off unassuming and sparse and develops into something special. The email I got for this song said it was “untitled” so it may not be called “My City”.
Regardless, the song is off of “the Art Show” Fabrashay’s upcoming album. It’s dope and if you don’t download then hopefully you don’t listen to rap and are just waiting for more pictures of bearded men playing ukelalees.

Sidenote:Besides catching Zerostar at “get right, getting right” you can also catch him hosting “Grindtime 2 I Still Get it in Ohio” it is an emcee battle October 16th at Skullys.
More on that later this week.

MP3:Copywrite feat Crooked I-Crooked Cop

MP3:Copywrite feat Crooked I-Crooked Cop

Copywrite teams up with Slaugherhouse’s Crooked I. Columbus rapping fucking with  the rapper Suge Knight cosigned after Pac passed? Yessir

This song is of Copywrite’s upcoming album the Life and Times of Peter Nelson which will be released November 16, 2010.

In addition to Crooked I, Copy’s new album features appearaces by Sean Price, RJD2, Illmind, Khrysis, MHZ, MF Grimm, Motion Man, Camu Tao and Dilated Peoples.

Pete is my friend, so I’ve heard the new album. It bangs and but also shows the side of Copywrite people loved on RJD2’s June. The Life and Times of Pete Nelson is has Pete reflecting on the deaths of his Mom, Dad, Camu  Przm, his grandfather,  as well as Kurt Cobain, Biggie Smalls. But besides the introspective stuff, Pete still gives you the humor, and raw lyricism that one enjoys about a Copywrite release.

What’s Really Good Columbus?!

Obviously the big story today is the OSU football game. Throw your rah-rag up.
Well, after the bucks win, whether you head to a parade, a festival, a BW3 or take a nap, try to come out to the Daymon Day Parade Afterparty.
Columbus legends The Fonosluts and DJ True Skillz will team up with Get Right Columbus, CJ Townsend and Iyeball of Fly Union to do it like they use to do , and continue to.
New School x Old type jump-off.
CJ and Iyeball will be coming returning from New York tonight where Iyeball’s rap group Fly Union and CJ just performed at Santo’s Party House for a BET Music Matters Showcase.
Daymon was a mentor for Fly Union, obviously a member of the Fonosluts, and he was also in BSA along with the Get Right Columbus fam.
Daymon would be proud of both Get Right, Fly U’s success, and be stoked to see Hip Hop culture in Columbus flourishing.(this is just the tip of the iceberg.)
So it should be fun.
