Disc Jockey Nappy - Thugstep Commission 3

Once again... it's on. Nappy continues with his Thugstep Commission series, with what I feel is the most fully realized mix yet. Not only do you get the huge remixes of Rap cuts from Waka Flocka, Drumma Boy, Big Sean, A$AP Rocky and others from Nappy, Santi Junior, SoundBoy Pussy, Vaski and more, but we get some monstrous cuts from Monstar, Hizzleguy, Aleon Craft, Proper Villains, among others. We ever get two cuts featuring original production, including Elucid's "You Ain't Even Know", which is dropping on Street Bass Anthems 5, and legit broke Nappy's windows. I don't know what your vice is, but it's 4/20, so I imagine you're chiefing something. Pack that bowl / bong / pipe up, light your dutch, and sip that brew. This is one to get rowdy to. Shouts to @_def for the artwork and @ClubTapes for the hosting!

Aleon Craft - Mothership Decatur (The Thugstep Edition)

Been waiting for this one to drop. I had been trying for a bit to get someone to work those Aleon Craft tracks inna THUGSTEP vein, and was glad that SMKA and Nappy linked up. Nappy brought in Santi Junior, who takes the bulk of these remixes and really shows what he's worth (well, teases - dude's got some bangers on the way). This one flips tracks from Mothership Decatur and slyly plays the futuristic spaceship funk into a different zone entirely. You already know. Some great shit for a lovely Friday the 13th, trust.

J NiCS ft. Aleon Craft "Wired Up"

Southern Niggas Ain't Slow is one of my favorite project titles. I love when niggas take stereotypes and truly flip it, but still keep it dope and not on some preachy shit. J NiCS is that dude (shouts to Numonics for putting me onto dude), and I've been fucking with Aleon Craft for a minute, so to have the two of them linking up over this big body beat? Makes me wish I had a cup of something at the job and could, you know, dance on my desk and shit. Get wired up. Southern Niggas Ain't Slow: The Product drops on April 23rd. Ain't that cover art ill?!

Probably the best representation of my twitter timeline on days like today. Either true love or true thug. This tape has a dope mixture of artists, too: Exile, Tony Willimas, Common, St. Joe Louis, Strong Arm Steady, Moe Green and plenty more. Pick a side. And if you missed the first three volumes, grab them HERE.

DJ Wonder - Wonder Mix (1/25/2012)

It was bound to happen. @DJWonder rocked @DJNappy's THUGSTEP Refix of @AleonCraft's "Yoga Flame" during his Wonder Mix last week. Totally missed it - but it's available for you right now. Wonder also threw in some Fused Forces, Skrillex, Action Bronson and plenty more. Sick mix, as per usual.

Aleon Craft vs. Crushington "Yoga Flame (Disc Jockey Nappy THUGSTEP Refix)"

This nigga Nappy feeling the Holiday spirit, and felt like leaking this Aleon Craft refix that I imagine is pretty recent. Not sure I even had this before it hit the SoundCloud. 2012 looks like it should be an important year for THUGSTEP, if what I'm hearing and helping cultivate bears the proper fruits. For now, enjoy these freebies. Be prepared, though - shit's about to get hectic. This shit right here? Proper low-end FUNK!

ForteBowie ft. Aleon Craft "Decatur"

ForteBowie ft. Aleon Craft "Decatur": Second single from Something About #Bowie finds Bowie and ATL's own Aleon Craft sending some love to one of ATL's havens. No big booty bassline anthems here - just a down-home guitar and some subtle percussion. Tracks like this have worked well for both artists, so I'm not surprised they linked up for this anthem. See, rappers, you can praise your city without an Auto-Tune'd T-Pain hook!

FOTM: THUGSTEP #34

When Aleon Craft's Mothership Decatur dropped, I mentioned Nappy's "Donkey Kong" refix. I remember when I first heard it, I knew that this one needed to be stepped on. The original even had a slower vibe to it - the acapella fell into my lap randomly, and I'm glad Nappy saw it's potential. With that heavy funk from Benga, this ode to fatties cannot be denied. At. All.

Aleon Craft Mothership Decatur

In my infinite wisdom, I try to send out feelers for cats to get down on certain things. I don’t know if it’s my approach, or niggas just not being interested, but I can’t get a lot of shit up off the ground. Nappy did a refix of Aleon Craft’s “Donkey Kong”, which I’m not even sure has been properly released. I wanted to see if Aleon would be down for an EP ala the From Mississippi To Mars project, but SMKA told me homey was busy. Welcome to the ship that caused my plans to be shifted. Craft’s been grinding heavy in the studio, and this mixtape is the last freebie you’ll see from that work before his album, Solar-Hop Chronicles, touches down. Obviously dude has a fondness for spaced-out shit, and in an Outkast/P-Funk kind of way, he blends that into his cipher. Capable producers like SMKA allow him to realize the visions he sees while peering into his telescope, and all you need to do is fire up a sack of that good and beam yourself up. You’ll definitely enjoy the funked out star trip, trust.

Aleon Craft ft. Backbone "Ghetto Dope"

Aleon Craft ft. Backbone "Ghetto Dope" (prod. by SMKA): The vibe between SMKA and Craft must be awesome to see creating music. There’s no need for a corny intro or some theatrics – Aleon comes on the 1 and flies into that fuzzy bass, gats blazin’. Something hot to shake this random winter chill out of the air. Just a fly track to wake the hood up with, so when the slowpokes peek out their window, they’ll see you, dutch in hand, blowing good in the air, posted on the side of your whip. Or, since this drops on Mothership Decatur, you’ll probably be posted on the side of your UFO (sitting on 20s). That DJ Smallz-hosted tape drops early April, so make sure you’ve got your flux capacitor fixed for the impending trip.
