I was wondering when the latest episode of Take It Personal was droppin'. Catch up on the week's most talked about events with Danyelliott, standard.
Twista "I Can Make You Say" (prod. by Kanye West): A perfect Prince sample = track never getting cleared, standard. A perfect Twista track over some dope Kanye beats = a win for Fake Shore Drive.
I admit it - ya boy is a nerd. I watch all kinds of cartoons, but the new ish just doesn't appeal to me. I've sent numerous e-mails to Cablevision in the past, trying to get Boomerang added to my TV channel list. Well, this weekend I found out that I finally got it!
Big L, rest in peace. Pick up this Grant Parks-produced tribute to Big L on L's born day.
Method Man & Redman "Dangerous MCs (Cookin' Soul Remix)": Given their latest output, I didn't know what to expect from this remix - but I found what I loved from CS production in the first place! Some ill shit to rock too... wonder why they ain't freak this beat off the rip!
BBC 1Xtra's Sarah Love highlighted ATL's own Señor Kaos on her most recent show. Kaos uploaded the profile, which is a fucking HUGE look on arguably the largest spot for Urban Music in the UK. Download it now!

Playaz Circle ft. Young Jeezy & Lil' Wayne "Stupid (Remix)": It's almost as if these remedial MCs make stupid tracks just so they can get niggas like Weezy and Jeezy to rap with them. This is stupid rap/listen to stupid crap. Shouts to BoBO.
I guess with the big homey in the big house, someone has to keep the lights on. I'm not sure if I'd put stock in Big Kuntry King... would you?
Ocean's 7 = Jermaine Dupri, Johnta Austin, Trey Songz, B.Cox, Nelly, Tyrone & Q Da Kid. It might not be that interesting, but it beats the fuck out of a mixtape from R. Kelly.01 Intro

Straight from Stones Throw:Madlib stopped in to Radio Nova in Paris this week for a 30 minute set before his live show that night. This live set and many others can be found at Radio Nova's website.
It's definitely Friday morning, but I still have the EMS ThrowBack to hit you with. This time, the homey Rev comes correct with a pretty interesting mixtape. I'll let him explain it:Here is "This Is The Rev-Mix" featuring me remixing some of your favorite artists songs but doing it like you wouldn't expect. I keep them on and flip verses with my own style and make the track my own. Check it out and you'll see what I mean and get ready for "The Push-Back" Mixtape which I will be dropping later next month!!!
Simple and plain: you need ill beats? Grab this tape. 'Nuff said.
The other day, I got hit with a batch of mixtapes and releases from a bunch of new artists. KJ Eclipse, reppin' East NY and Georgia, was one of the more engaging cats. Peep "Hip-Hop Will Rock":
Cy Yung hit me with this project from KiNo, who is an 18 year old MC from North Carolina. KiNo linked up with BPA-fam Ivy League GFX to put out ANALOG, which serves as a precursor to KiNo's Neon LP. If you are questioning, peep what he does to "Turn It Up" on his MySpace.
Queens MC Prophit hit me with his latest mixtape, Legend In My Own Mind, which finds him rippin' beats from cats like Jansport J to Madlib and J Dilla; he told me he put this together in like 24 hours, which is something that always intrigues me. Dude definitely has some ill things going on here - dope introduction to what should be more to come!

Serius Jones is one of those NJ spitters that I wish I heard more from on a consistent basis, so when new material of his drops, I'm all over it. If you're not familiar with his work, grab this right now then smack the SHIT out of yourself. One for the whip, no doubt.
"This ain't Hip-Hop, this is something else" is the e-mail I got this morning; yesterday, Milly July dropped her Sneak Chamber mixtape, and after a listen on the busride to work today, I tend to agree with that notion. I was immediately floored by track 1 ("Sneak Chamber"), and got caught up in some of the cuts ("No Paper", "Summer", etc.)... this 23 year old Bmore rapstress has some things going on. It's definitely not the regular shit you hear from a male OR female, but that's its charm. Leftfield beat selections, rhymes that make you think a bit (while not being so overly wordy OR complicated) and an overall appreciation for being ill - its also executive produced by Judah, so you should already know. I also had no idea homegirl wrote for hypebeast. Nice one. Another DMV banger.
Soul Khan ft. KONCEPT, Homeboy Sandman & 8thW1 "Knuckle Puck" (prod. by J57): Them Brown Bag niggas ain't playin'! Onward and upward we go with Brown Bag Season as they link up with AOK, spitting so sick over a fly beat. Do you truly need more!?!?!
Elucid "My Mayor Is A Billionaire (BBC)": Let me tell you - I've been WAITING to get this one out to the heads out there. With Elucid's Sub Bass Diet project nearing completion, I'm finally able to share some of these hybrid treats with all of you! Here, Gutta speaks on the financial crisis that has hit a lot of people in the last, oh, 6-8 months, highlighting one of the truly glaring ironies with these situations: the fuckers who are out here debating and trying to fix these financial problems we deal with are motherfuckers who don't even get affected! Hopping atop a bouncy cut from Joker, Elucid created a true anti-establishment anthem in these monetarily difficult times we live in. Blast this one the next time you see some rich, suit-wearing ass politician telling you how he is gonna help you and your plight.
Fokis "Internet Going Nuts" (prod. by d.C.): Fokis definitely has his 'Net game on lock. This track is a perfect example of how he gets his digital grind on. Maybe you MCs/producers looking for a how-to should study this one.
You know what happens on Sundays? If you're a party person, you are probably resting up from merkin' your mental on Friday and Saturday. Sean Wyze's The Sunday LP (presented by Cali So Live) is something you can knock from Friday and go through to Sunday, from the high to the mellow to the cool out. Grab it for free HERE: the homey Jansport J did like 3 tracks off there, including my favorite "LA". Don't sleep... even if Wyze is!
