is BACK online on a NEW server to BEST SERVE you!
Yo,
the past few weeks have been crazy in the news. Let's
see, O.J. Simpson was found guilty 9 years
exactly later to the date he was aquitted for murder,
Sarah Palin & Tina Fey meet face to face on
Saturday Night Live, the former Secretary of State
Colin L. Powell endorses Obama for President
& boxing's Bernard Hopkins gave Kelly Pavlik
a boxing lesson and a first loss that he will never
forget....
This years VH-1 "Hip-Hop Honors" was coo. Seeing
Too Short get his props was hella hype for me
because I can remember back in maybe 1987 when I was
DJ'ing for Sir Mix-A-Lot, one of our first big
gigs out of Seattle was in Oakland openning up for this
guy named Too Short. I had no clue who this guy was or
how scary Oakland females can be. It takes a lot to get
me skurred but yo, the females at this show looked
harder than NWA or the Geto Boys! And
every track I remember Too Short rappin' ended with,
"Biyaatch!!!" I was like there's no way people are gonna
buy his music. LOL I was sooooo wrong & I ended up
playing all his cuts on my radio show in Seattle cause
Too Short created such a strong street buzz, I couldn't
ignore it. Too Short & I became good friends since & he
mos def deserved the props he got on "The Hip-Hop
Honors"...

BRI-G
SAYS "FAREWELL TO RPM":
"Well
guys, this will be my last email to you as an RPM
employee. In the almost 5 years I’ve worked here, I’ve
gotten to do some amazing things, meet some incredible
people, and learn from some of the smartest bosses I’ll
ever have. When I first came here, I never would have
dreamed that I would have gotten to see and do some of
the things that I now take for granted as commonplace.
So, while I will still continue work with the good folks
over here in several different capacities, my days of
being an actual employee and coming to the office
everyday are over.
Over
the last few months, all the motivation and drive that I
had to keep plugging away, doing all that came with my
position here just dried up. I couldn’t figure out what
was wrong with me. I’ve always been a first to arrive,
last to leave, anything you need I’ll get done type
person. And then one day it just hit me like a ton of
bricks…this just isn’t what I want to do anymore.
I
first came to New York from Connecticut in the winter of
’03 when my girlfriend at the time got an apartment
here. All I wanted to do was DJ, but I had no clue where
or how. So I got a street team job at a radio station,
an internship for an indy label in the South Bronx
(working Ice Shuler’s record), and stayed at her place
till I could figure out my life. After I parted ways
with the indy label, I took another internship at a
place called RPM. After about a month, I was hired on
full time…you all know the rest of the story.
I’ve
always wanted to DJ here. This is the home of Jam
Master Jay, Flex, Clue, Kid Capri,
and the movie Juice that inspired me to be a DJ to begin
with. This is where I wanted to make my mark in the DJ
world. Over the last 5 years, I’ve done a lot of pinch
hitting. A spot here, a spot there. Nothing really
consistent. It’s that consistency that makes you a
better DJ. It’s tough to pinch hit every week when you
don’t know what the crowd is like. Rap one night, 80’s
and pop the next, electro another…yea, it forces you to
read a crowd, but at the same time, your never building
anything, you’re never making your mark.
Working the Pepsi DJ Division project has always
been special to me. It was my chance to get close with
some of the biggest DJs in the country. See how they
move and learn from them. But this year I just couldn’t
get something out of my head. I’m booking flights and
car services for guys. I’m creating power point
presentations on what this guy has done, where that guy
spins. All the while, in the back of my mind I’m
thinking, I don t want to do this for this guy, I want
to be this guy. I always have. I’m not jealous of guys
like Clinton Sparks and Eric Cubeechee, I
just want my shot to be up there and mentioned next to
them.
So
about a month ago, I had a bit of a melt down and had to
break it all down to myself. I need to leave RPM. I need
to hit the block and build with the right club
promoters. I need to get some indy record projects to
put some money in my pocket. I need free afternoons to
practice and build sets. I need to be my own boss. I
need to bet on myself and take the shot that I never
took when I first moved here because I was just some no
name kid who needed a job. Unbeknownst to me, that job
would turn into the most amazing 4 ˝ years of my life.
I’ve
sat 50 feet away and learned from some of the best and
brightest people in the industry for almost five years.
I don’t think I can go wrong if I just apply everything
I’ve learned on myself.
Please lock in my new email:
BGaffeyPromo@gmail.com and use it for all
future correspondence"...
This
month's motto says it all: "Hip-Hop Don't Stop". It was
almost thirty years ago that Hip-Hop evolved from its
underground roots to grip mainstream consciousness with
"Rapper's Delight" – and it hasn't let off ever since.
We give you the latest music videos by up-and-coming

Acid Reflex comes just in time for election year and

black-on-black crime and violence, the ongoing problem
of police brutality, war, politics and what Paris calls
"the need for more of an equal balance between positive
and negative influences in entertainment." Acid Reflex

We've been getting tons of positive reveiws thus far but
we'd like to have your feedback. Please check it out and
tell us what you think. If you like, be sure to bookmark
or subscribe and of course spread the good word.
Welcome to the official blog of
Philaflava.com's T.R.O.Y. (They Reminisce
Over You) forum. "T.R.O.Y." is of course a reference to
Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth's ode to their fallen friend
(Trouble T-Roy of Heavy D. and The Boyz).
If the previous sentence reads like a foreign language
to you, don't fret. The purpose of this blog is to
explore and celebrate rap music (especially the
overlooked and obscure recordings and artists) from
about 1987 to 1997, give or take a few years on either
end. We are not purists or elitists, just a bunch of
proud rap nerds who revel in sharing our discoveries
with anyone willing to listen.
Over
at the
T.R.O.Y. forum we spend most of our work week
discussing artists like Scientifik, Godfather
Don, K.M.D, Brand Nubian, Mobb Deep,
Souls Of Mischief, Avatar the Articulate,
Juggaknots and the like. This daily effort
results in the uploading of songs and albums previously
unavailable in formats other than dusty vinyl, some of
which are long out of print. We frequently take the time
to compile songs that share similar themes or moods.
Just as the rap culture of the '90s (think Stretch
and Bobbito, Sway & Tech and countless
college and mixtape DJs) demanded that a class of
obsessed aficionados isolate and organize the rawest
tracks floating below the radar for our listening
pleasure, the Internet age demands similar vigilance.
Stay
tuned - in addition to providing you with a steady
stream of links straight outta T.R.O.Y. we will also be
posting mixes and analyses exclusive to this blog, as
well as keeping an eye out for the best of what the
throwback rap blogosphere has to offer. Consider this
your one stop shop for "The Rap Of Yore" - just don't
ever call it that...

RACISM FACING 2008 ELECTION?
by: DJ Chela
Shouts to my colleagues at the Hip Hop Caucus who
registered 30,000 new voters on Tuesday alone with their
"Respect My Vote!" campaign. If you
haven't registered, deadlines are almost here in many
states, you can register online there now:
www.hiphopcaucus.org.
I'm dropping a video blog reacting to what I have seen
throughout this election. With all the important issues
at hand, many in the white community and media have been
dwelling on racially biased beliefs and fears. The vlog
is inspired by watching monolithic media coverage,
seeing the effect of the "Bubba Vote" in polls, and
speaking with my family members who describe what's
going on in their communities in Virginia, Georgia and
the Carolinas. The process was soul searching,
creative and fun, as I tried to figure out exactly how
to address these complex issues. The result I hope is
effective... I'd love all feedback.
Through the vlog I'm excited to represent another side
of my personality and background--Lauren from NC,
that some of ya'll might not know about--a white girl
from the South that drinks lemonade out of mason jars,
makes pickled okra and knows the lyrics to Shania
Twain songs. Might just be something I keep building
on, as I figure out how to reach white folks in the
United States that I might not see eye to eye with and
engage them on love, compassion and healing.

Attack takes a "WHAT'S UPPER" look this week with:
Solo
(WECI-IN):
"Finally Earlham College has let us broadcast
live over the web....yea us! So log on to
www.weciradio.org, for details or paste this
link in ITUNES:
159.28.24.146:8000 in the advanced column. You can

when I get the paper, I plan on getting some digital dj
system!
DJ Solo breakin records fri 10 pm to 12 am
iceman sat 7pm to 9pm"...
DJ
Sage (CFRO - Vancouver, BC): "We got things
started with a double shot from Foreign Exchange's
new disc, "Leaving It All Behind". The duo of
Phonte from Little Brother and Dutch producer
Nicolay deliver another solid album on Hard
Boiled. Check it out if you like some laid back, smooth
Hip-Hop or as I like to call it, "baby-making music".
We were joined by Psycho Les of the legendary
Beatnuts, who talked with us about their current
release, "U.F.O. Files Unreleased Joints" courtesy of
Psycho Les's own label Fight Pit Records. Be on
the look out for further volumes in the "U.F.O. Files"
series. As well as a new Beatnut's album entitled
"Planet of the Crates" summer next year.
Mr. Lif also joined us to talk about politics,
Nas' catalogue, and premier his own brand new track,
"The Sun". We ourselves also took a look at "Illmatic",
the classic debut album from Nas. It's ranked number 2
on MTV's Top Ten Hip-Hop albums of all
time, which I can't say is really surprising. Check out
this show and post a comment on "Illmatic".
www.urpradio.podomatic.com...
Chill
Will
(WCBN-MI):
"What's up? It's DJ Chill Will of the University of
Michigan's WCBN 88.3 fm. Home ofthe longest
running college radio Hip Hop show in the Mid-West and
maybe the country. Be sure to tune into the show weekly
on 88.3 fm in the Ann Arbor/Metro Detroit area. Or at
www.wcbn.org Saturday nights from 9pm to 12
midnight est. It's been a good week so far. I heard a
new joint from Mickey Factz with the Cool Kidz
called Rockin n Rollin if you haven't heard it check
for it. Looking forward to hollering at Hip Hop legend
Diamond D about his new banger D.I.A.M.O.N.D. And
Detroit's own Black Milk and what he's up to so
stay tune. If your in the area check me out weekly at
Papi O's on Fridays and at Studio 4 on Sundays. For more
dates and information about me, DJ Chill Will go to:

Anilast
aka
Stuart de la Rosa (KSMT-CO): "The 1st day
of the ski season opened today with two of the resorts
opening by my house. I can't beileve it's that time
agian to strap on our snowboards and go to town or
should I say the mountain. Keep the muisc and the
interviews coming, I have already booked live artist
interviews on my radio show for the next month. Keep it
funky fresh yalls:
www.RhythmLoungeRadio.com...
Brian
"ColdRigourous"
Leahy (WHUS-CT): "Whuddup yall, I'm siked
cos I'm playing a disco night tomorrow night at
Hartford's swankiest nightclub...Promotions are looking
good too, I think it's going to go over. Chances are
though, there won't be a lot of real serious disco heads
there...it is Hartford, after all. What are the top
disco jams for non-disco heads? I'm set with Evelyn
King, Cheryl Lynn, Anita Ward,
Indeep, Cameo, Lakeside, Donna
Summer, Gloria Gaynor, Barry White,
Bee Gees...what are some other good pop disco jamms
I should drop in between the Libra and the One
Way that I'm not thinking of?"...
Nesto
(WODU-VA):
"Yo the gas is below 3 dollars a gallon. Now I can't
believe that shit. I'm hoping it continues to fall in
price, especially with the Holidays coming up. I'm also
hoping that the typical big layoffs that come during the
holidays doesn't take place, but with the economy
looking like it is things don't look too well.
Music wise, I'm digging this Kaboose album, and
that TI album isn't bad either. On the mixtape
tip, check for the new Z-Trip ObamaMix. Nice mix,
even if you don't like Obama.
Sports talk. BoSox better get it together or
Tampa will be heading to the Series. NFL is
really starting to get on my nerves once again. I
stopped watching NFL games for a long time, and I'd say
maybe 2 seasons ago I started watching a few games here
and there. I got tired of all of the criminals in the
NFL, and all the bullshit going down in the NFL. Now it
looks as if things may be going down hill again for me
when it comes to the NFL. I would rather watch college
football over the NFL, but I am trying to keep an open
mind with the NFL. I'm a fan of the Cowboys, but
they are so overated and that last 3 games I watch
pissed me off. One thing you can count on with Romo is
he WILL throw an interception"...
Edgie
Kokoski
(WUNH-NH): "I woke up this morning and double
checked to make sure the shades were still tightly
drawn. I slunk into my kitchen and dug around in a
drawer until I found a pair of scissors. I used them to
poke through the paper and cut two circles of the same
size about two inches apart. When I was finished, I slid
my hand between the folds, expanded them, and slowly
dragged the grocery bag over my head before stepping out
into the October sunshine. Because that's what you have
have to do when your undefeated football team loses to
the Cleveland Browns 35-14 on national TV.
At least the Red Sox are dominating. Oh wait. As
I write this they are down 5-1 in a strong attempt to
tank a second chance faster than Pacman Jones.
I saw on TV this week that Smirnoff is the
official Vodka of James Bond. I don't really
remember any ringing endorsements by 007 in the few of
his films I've seen, and I'm pretty skeptical that the
smoothest operator in the history of cinema prefers the
swill I used to shoot and chase with Surge in my
college dormroom before I was 21. (Bonus points if you
remember "Surge"!)
I was at Wal-Mart buying some CD-Rs last night
and I noticed that they already have a display of
Christmas CDs. I felt like asking the clerk where the
Valentine's Conversation Hearts and Cadbury Eggs were.
Let's get through Halloween first people, huh? Then I
can worry about hearing 75 different Adult Contemporary
artists sing "White Christmas" on the radio for two
vomitous months.
Speaking of things that make me want to spew all over
myself, I've had enough of the media using the suffix
"Gate" to describe every scandal that breaks. The
original, "Watergate", was a very unique historic
scenario and was simply the name of a wack Washington
D.C. hotel. The most recent example was Sarah Palin's
"Troopergate" and other recent examples from the
sports world include the Patriots "Spygate" and
the Yankee Stadium "Jerseygate". Enough is enough!
Nothing on TV has driven me to such murderous anger
since "Dude, Your Getting a Dell". (Honorable mention to
that new Friendly's commercial where the Soccer Mom is
singing to her carload of bratty kids about how "Ice
Cream makes the meal". That one makes me want to drive
to a Friendly's and smash every upside down cone head
sundae in sight. And then befoul their Men's room with
an "Upper Decker". Bonus points if you know what an
"Upper Decker" is.)"...
Nate
Abney
(WKDU-Philly): "Sorry I took a week off but
sometimes time doesn't allow you to do everything. The
Phils are goin to the World Series and I'm
loving it. I hope the Rays win because the Red
Sox will be much tougher to beat but anything is
possible. The Birds beat up the 49ers now
we feel good in the bye week,and Penn State is
the truth my brother is $50 lighter in his wallet now
for making silly bets against me(Saying they wouldn't
win more than 5 games).
I don't think I will be making it to CMJ
this year. This will be the first in like 7 years I
won't make, but I shall return next year keep me posted
on all the events anyway in case something changes last
minute. How about the Flyers fan booing Sarah
Palin and then chanting Obama at the Wachovia
center hilarious. Till next week"...
