Jay Electronica "The Ghost of Christopher Wallace"
Jay Electronica ft. Diddy "The Ghost of Christopher Wallace (radio rip)": WOW. @EnigmatikBGDB had been telling me that @JayElectronica was planning on premiering something today. I wanted to get hyped, but I've always been skeptical of Jay, and with YN's last editorial about Jay still resonating in my psyche, I wasn't bugging out. Well, it looks like Rap Radar got to premiere this BANGER, which features something I didn't realize I missed - Diddy-libs! Very ill beat, very dope rhymes. From what YN says, though, it's unfinished, so we'll see how it is in its final incarnation. I can ride to this, though. Thanks, Elliott!EDIT You can download the untagged version [big up BGDB], and be sure to check out Angela Yee's discussion with Jay Electronica.
EDIT Here's the re-mixed version, via @IAmDiddy. Bad Boy Records?
EDIT Here's the dirty radio edit (I.E. 3:12 minutes), via HHNM.

Psalm One "It's Worth It"
Psalm One "It's Worth It": Here's an ill cut from the 1st Lady of Rhymesayers, @PsalmOne. I randomly got the CD for Woman @ Work and was intrigued. I've been digging Eternia's word, and of course Jean Grae and my homegirl Dominique Larue are killin' it - good to see female MCs getting theirs without having to shake their ass - or show their ass! Mulatto Patriot handled beats for this project alongside Earmint and Ethan Stoller, and it's very light on features, so if you're asking "where's the ill females on the mic?", here's one you need to get to know!

Sene "TellMeBoutIt"
Sene "TellMeBoutIt" (prod. by Thoughts For Food): Here's a cut Sene made that did not make it onto the recently-released Reality Bites; the homey @_J57 told me that this was made "during a two month period of sobriety upon Sene's return to Brooklyn, before inevitably falling back into a box of swishers". Speaks about how life's changed now that cats is older and gotta pay rent on their own. It's crazy - sounds like a conversation I'd have with some of my high school friends over a beer... or in a dutch session.

addifi - The Green Diner Mix
Here's a pretty dope mixtape of instrumentals from LA beatmaker @addifi. I like having shit play when I'm at work, or when I'm working on pieces, and beat tapes like this are so essential. Pretty short - under 19 minutes - but you can hear the quality in homey's beats.

Legit "Sociology"
Legit "Sociology": Here's a fresh cut from an inquisitive 18 year old from Chitown. I wish more cats in my hood would sound so intelligent about their hood using Hip-Hop. You know, you get e-mails from loads of artists, giving their accolades, and I try to ignore that and give my own opinion. I'll say this - I wanna hear more from this cat. He's ill. Smart motherfucker, talented individual. Need about 3 or 4 more of him, try and change this scene.If you want more info/tracks from Legit, hit up YNotMyDream.
EDIT This is taken from Legit's Second Semester mixtape.

FuseBox Radio (Week Of 4/28/2010)

** We had a few problems in with the studio computer for sending out this week's most recent radio show (Geek Squad repair shop, here we come), but luckily we can keep it moving. **
** This week's episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast is one of our many favorite flashback episodes from the vaults...hope you enjoy it! :) **

This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of April 28, 2010 is a rebroadcast of the April 15, 2009 show which contains some Old and Classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.
This commentary from that show focused on the entire mainstream media (MSM) coverage about the Somali pirate scenario, the rise of more extreme right-wing organizations in the U.S. since the election of Pres. Barack Obama (and why in a way, it's a pretty silly scenario on multiple levels in regards to being scared of certain Black People) and some other things here and there.
We had a great interview with Dave Kusek (instructor at Berklee School of Music amongst other accomplishments), the co-author of book The Future of Music: Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution
.
Some of the subject matter we touched on during the interview included how technology has totally changed the current state of music industry in the past 10 - 15 years, how hard working independent artists currently have some of the most optimal chances to distribute, promote and sell their music to the masses due to things like internet innovations (Web 2.0, self-distribution options for music & content, etc.), where the current music industry should change to be both profitable and give music to the people they way they want, reaching out for niche audiences (esp. in the different genres of Black Music) and more!
Please check out Mr. Kusek's official site for The Future Of Music: Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution book (which also has lots of great articles about the future of the music industry) at http://www.FutureOfMusicBook.com!
Due to the length of the interview, we did not have DirectEFX or Black Agenda Report segments that week.
Feel free to check out some recent episodes of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast here on BlackRadioIsBack.com - all of the shows are clean/radio friendly.

Eminem "Not Afraid"
Eminem "Not Afraid" (prod. by Boi-1da): Lyrically, this is the Em I like to hear. Introspective, without all of the weird voices and fart noises. He's at his best when he's examining his own self, and it takes a pretty bold person to admit that their last album was "eh". I could've done without the chorus that, while very catchy, is just not something I'm feeling - not really into Eminem "singing". Why do rappers have to sing? Rap and let someone else sort that out. And that third verse, with him talking about raising the roof and lifting the bar? Awesome.CDQ via Team Supreme.
Also, Rap Radar has posted Eminen's interview with Angela Yee from this morning.

Jennifer Lopez "Radio"
Jennifer Lopez "Radio" (prod. by David Guetta): So J.Lo and her donk decided to remake Donna Summer's "On The Radio". Why? Because the shit J.Lo has been making hasn't been getting radio play. Why she felt the need to have Guetta produce this is beyond me - it's not far off from club fodder that other producer make on the regular. Outside of all of that, this might be the lane she needs to go in on, even though I can see a video for this being less about her dancing and more about her glammed up like a disco queen...MP3 via OnSMASH.

Soul Khan "Soulstice"
Soul Khan "Soulstice": If you're not up on Soul Khan, whether its from the battle circuit or with his Brown Bag AllStar collective, know one thing: he's a beast. He's got an album coming this summer, and is attacking the blogs something serious. Take this opening salvo as an intro to homeboy's cipher. You won't be disappointed. Shouts to J57.

Mr. Upgrade "Hi-Light Reel" (prod. by Jett. I Masstyr): Another cat from "New Texas" flips a Jett. I beat and compares himself to one of my favorite basketball players going up (guess who). I love this emerging sound of more lyrical Hip-Hop coming from Tejas. Good to know that an area isn't defined by the more popular cats coming from there. Big up @MisterUpgrade.

Rusko Vs. Sub Focus
Yesterday, two remixes dropped. I love when artists trade remixes for each other - it's like a mutual appreciation thing. What's ill about these is that both Sub Focus and Rusko are seen as the new-breed torchbearers for their respective scenes, but are also making strides outside of their genres into a more mainstream place. The only odd bit that Sub Focus actually comes with the dubstep remix, while Rusko's more club-happy funkery. Enjoy.- Sub Focus ft. Coco "Splash (Rusko Remix)"

Game "Ain't No Doubt About It"
Game ft. Justin Timberlake & Pharrell "Ain't No Doubt About It": OK so Game's trying to buy a Billboard spot now, eh. This track would've been hot if it came out in 2002 and was on Justified. It's a really good as a Justin Timberlake song. Game on it? Why? Dude, you are not that "sexy" nigga that has mass appeal, stop it. You might be the bomb for those hoodrats, but please believe - this is NOT the look for you, buddy.And since when was it OK for blue-eyed soul singers to be harmonizing your ad-libs? This just SCREAMS "turn me the fuck off/find a new single".

Drake "Find Your Love"
Drake "Find Your Love" (prod. by Kanye West): I kinda went ham on the tweets this morning, so if this is a rehash for some of your, I'm sorry. What in the Kraftwerk is going on here? I was hoping this wasn't gonna be 808s & Heartbreak Drake, but alas, I was wrong. And it's bad. @JSmooth995 was on the money with the Dwayne-esque "hey HEY hey" (shouts to @bdotTM for the Fat Albert reference), but I just don't know. I actually don't MIND the beat, but when those pianos and synths come in, I instantly cringe. It just SCREAMS "accept my weirdness with something you can latch onto". Drake's singing isn't my cup of tea - I wasn't a fan of So Far Gone because of it, and based on the steep decline in dope tracks that've leaked from Thank Me Later, I won't be thanking that nigga for shit.MP3 via Nah Right.

Nas & Damian Marley "Friends"
Nas & Damian Marley "Friends": This is a lil' more roots-y, which is ill. The more I hear from the album, the more I want to do two things: own it all now, and, you know, get high. This is probably a good weed-smoking car-trip album. Glad it's living up to expectations.Shouts to HHNM.
