Low Budget Soul

If I can ever get my sound to work correctly in the world of word press.  I will place a musical post on this artist.  Low Budget Soul is another great group from the UK.  They have classic boom bap beats with sultry R&B grooves that help any hard body get they groove on. LOL

Here is their bio found on their website: http://www.futuristicamusic.com/lbs.html

Hiphop Albums you must have from 2007

1. Devin da dude “Waiting to Inhale” : If you are unfamiliar with the work of the hiphop Richard Pryor meet Rakim.  Then you are in for a treat.  The cool thing about Devin is that he tales stories that are emotionally vulnerable and comical that we can relate to and laugh at.  He also does something unique to the world of Hip-hop by selecting a rand of instrumental tracks that have real instrumentation rather than the sample heavy or other synth dominated sounds we are used to.  All in All I keep coming back to this album when I need to relax or just laugh at life.

2. EL-PEE:  I will sleep when your Dead:  I am a fan of the abstract when it is done well and El-PEE outdone himself here.  With his punk meets hiphop vibe he creates a great follow up to Fantastic Damage which I found to be hard to listen to.  This new album is a great return to the wall of sound sample style of the bomb squad refreshing in the creativity drought that hiphop has faced as of late.

JAY ELECTRONICA IS RELEASING SOMETHING ON CHRISTMAS

Word on the Internets is JAy Electronica is droping a joint on Christmas.  Peep him out this cat is on E Badu’s Control Freaq label.  The cat is mad ill, I can’t wait to hear something new from him.  He has the kind of flow that just captivates you.  Jay drop a full Length soon.

RIP Pimp C

I would like to give my respects to the family of Chad Butler.   It goes without saying him and his homie Bun B helped set the foundation for what would later turn out to be southern hip-hop.  We are talking real southern Hiphop not just southern club music but the true sounds of their corner of the south. 

Now that that is said, I can’t help but wonder if this is another lean caused untimely death or just a random existing condition.  According to the media it was natural causes that was still a tuff turn for Pimp C since he just got out of the clink and released his first charting album with partner in rhyme Bun B.  Either way it goes it is truely an untimely demise. It is always sad to see someone turn a corner only to be cut down in stride.

RIP Pimp
