Khaleel – Hot Flames

In the same atmosphere that I posted yesterday the release dates of some couple Year Round Records 12inches I was trying to find a blogpost to this track by Khaleel. But I couldn’t found one, so why not make one? This track is produced by DJ Premier off course and is featured Texas youngster Khaleel signed to Year Round Records. His album “My MC Name Is…” should drop after Nick Javas album in a couple of years (first names on that list are Marco Polo, Panchi, Nick Javas and Showbiz). But the first single of Khaleel is about to drop on July 12th, 2010 with “Hot Flames” on the A-Side and on the B-Side we have a new unreleased track “Aalllllready”. I’m excited about that one!

“Hot Flames” was original named “You Can’t Tell Me Shit”, later on I’ve heard the name “Can’t Tell Me” but last year DJ Premier told us that the official name of the track is “Hot Flames”. First time I’ve heard the track was in like 2004, now 6 years later we’ll be able to buy it on vinyl! Enjoy:

Khaleel – Hot Flames

Here are some new Khaleel tracks from his library (none of them are produced by DJ Premier and they are not featured on the album):

Khaleel – Texas

Khaleel – Get Tha Hell Back

Khaleel – After Tha Show

And for those who missed it, another leak:

Khaleel – Rappin’ Exercise (Feat. Panchi) (Prod. by Showbiz) (Cuts by DJ Premier)

Joel Ortiz – Project Boy (Premier’s Bass Break Version) (Radio Rip)

It’s been some time when a track produced by DJ Premier got so hyped up by the hip hop media like this one, damn! So Premo made a new version of the beat, I think it’s called the “Break Version”. But I’m not quit sure though… Also look out for the remix of “Project Boy” featuring Noreaga… Enjoy:

Joell Ortiz should be on Year Round Records, just the thought to get it on the vinyl alone…





Soulbrotha – Real MCs (Feat. Blaq Poet, NYGz & Krumb Snatcha) (Prod. by Soulbrotha) (Radio Rip)

Soulbrotha from Germany were last night guests on Premo’s LiveFromHQ chilling. DJ Premier played this new track from them that will appear on their next 12″ somewhere in may with Largo Pro on the B-Side. A-side contains this track featuring NYGz, Blaq Poet & Krumb Snatcha! I personally love it, enjoy:

Joell Ortiz – Project Boy (Street Version) REAL CDQ

I wonder if this gonna end up on vinyl…





New MC Eiht Tracks Produced by Brenk

What do we got here? Two new tracks of MC Eiht‘s upcoming album “Which Way Is West?” that will be released on Year Round Records. Executive produced by DJ Premier, he will produce 2-3 joints and Marco Polo & NYGz are also on the project. These two tracks were already heard in the sample I posted some time ago, now you have them in full quality. Both are produced by European producer Brenk, enjoy:

MC Eiht – So Well (Prod. by Brenk)

MC Eiht – Ride On ‘Em (Produced by Brenk)

All this is coming this summer…

Joell Ortiz – Project Boy

First I did the radio rip and here’s the mp3. Note, it’s not the CDQ. It seems he wants to hold it back for a while, the ‘CDQ’ you can find on some blogs is only low bitrate… Here you have the mp3 rip of the HD version. Mastered a bit and it’s good to bang your mp3 player! I’m not so kind on the song though, but a lot of you do so enjoy:

VINTAGE: Forbidden Fruit Demo Single 1993 (Prod. by Vada Nobles)

Among the random stuff I got to review when I was in high school was a cassette single by a crew named Forbidden Fruit. They were on the no-name “Big Boss Records” (located at 202 St. Nicholas Ave in New York, now the home of 21st Century Urology, which is probably not a hip-hop label) and the cassette single was so cheap that the O-card was literally scotch-taped together. Forbidden Fruit was a two-man crew that bore a striking resemblance, in terms of sound, to Naughty By Nature. It was 1993, so it’s got the piano-heavy production and Treach Lite-like flows. Obvious NBN derivation aside, I really like these tracks. The horns that drop in on “Keep It In Mind” sound awkward and out of place, but how can you not love that Tony D-style piano loop. Production is credited to Vada Nobles (who co-produced Lauryn Hill’s solo album) and Forbidden Fruit.

I haven’t seen this one floating around anywhere else, so I’m guessing this particular single is pretty rare. Both vocals and instrumentals are included from the original cassette single.

I can’t repeat how much I love those old things that still surface the internet. But no words are spend on the fact if they’re actually Fabidden Fruit of Mike Rone & H. Stax?? But I think so, the name, the city, the amount of persons in the group, … Can’t be no one else, can it??

Ok, they don’t look like each other, so who are they? Nonetheless, I post what I like. Lets go further to the real F.A.B.I.D. I heard Fabidden Fruit for the first time when they were on Guru‘s Ill Kid label in 1995, later they rhymed over a couple of DJ Premier beats before they were preparing their debut album that should came out last year… I’m still waiting… Remember that unreleased Premo track “Get It In”, damn! Now enjoy this dope demo single from 1993 before the cassette snaps from a different Fabidden Fruit?! Sorry if you already got it.

Forbidden Fruit – Keep It In Mind (Tape) (1993)

Props to Normal Bias who ripped it last year!

Kool Sphere (of Verbal Threat) – Supply & Demand (Feat. Smiley the Ghetto Child & Lil Dap) (Prod. by Weirdo)

Here we have a new exclusive track from Kool Sphere of Verbal Threat, and I really like it. It’s featuring Gang Starr Foundation members Smiley the Ghetto Child & Lil Dap (of Group Home). Kool Sphere just finished his first solo album “Integritty” that is coming out soon with features like Lil Dap, Smiley The Ghetto Child, Smoothe Da Hustler, Verbal Threat, Kool G Rap, Tame-One (from Artifacts) and Rhona Bennett (from En Vogue). That’s how you keep it real in this rap game!! I recently copped his pre-album (or whatever you wanna call it) with a lot of unreleased joints that are banging real good, you can check out the samples here. I can’t wait for this album to drop. This joint is produced by Weirdo from Italy, I know the dude from back in time when he was promoting his beats on forums. Respect for him! “Reality Check” still gives me a boner haha, Verbal Threat didn’t split btw, they actually working on a new album. Now enjoy Kool Sphere, be on the look out:
