Why yes, it's definitely been five years since I first started
rockthedub (back when I still had a "
blogspot.com" attached). It's been a wild journey - I went from needing a spot to let some of my unpublished interviews and reviews breathe, and turned into a destination for heads who want a different take on the normal shit you find on music blogs. As we always do around this time, I felt like I needed to drop a special compilation, and tried to assemble a load of previously -unreleased/exclusive material, so on this project you'll find new shit from
Brown Bag AllStars,
Zilla Rocca,
Curly Castro,
Elucid,
Scripts N Screwz,
Pugs Atomz &
DJ Vadim,
The Two. Fifteens,
Whygee, an exclusive remix of a
J NiCS track from
Numonics, two
DJ Nappy refixes,
Mario Dones,
Rickie Jacobs with
Artic, and plenty more tracks.

I also got a grip of tracks that didn't fit the 80 minute length I place on my compilations, so here's a batch of
Bonus Beats featuring heat from
JSWISS,
Elucid,
Deal - The Villain,
E Dot Dizzy,
SUICIDER,
R.O.E.,
Triple J,
Stealth,
Kenny Kenny and others.

That's a total of 34 tracks, for free. Not a number that's divided by five evenly... sue me. Big up to EVERY artist who sent me a track for this, or ever sent anything my way, as well as any head who has visited the site in the past five years. I do this for all of you. Shouts to my wife and my family for holding me down. I hope you enjoy this compilation, and help us celebrate our first five years. Thanks again!
EDIT I wanted to big up all of the blogs who've shown

Yesterday, I brought you the one-hitter instrumental release from Numonics, and today, via DJ Booth / Last Rights / 2DBz, Numonics and J NiCS presents the full ounce, Champion Rizla. You should know by now that Numonics is fire on the boards, and J NiCS is a perfect compliment to homey's beats. Proper intoxicating release right here. I also appreciate that it's light on features - let the duo breathe! Inhale... exhale... giggle. Good to have a Rizla...
On February 1st, Numonics and J.NiCS drop their Champion Rizla EP. Today, Numonics dropped Champion Sounds, a collection of instrumentals that you can roll weed into Rizlas to. Some of these beats are found on Champion Rizla. It's almost like a contact high.
J NiCS "Road To The Riches" (prod. by Numonics): The video for this dropped a few weeks ago, so I'm glad we could provide the full track for you. Numonics brings those strings so ill. Something to vibe to while you're a few sheets to the wind, thinkin' on a masterplan. Trust. NiCS and Numonics have an EP dropping on the 1st of February entitled Champion Rizla, so make sure you have a full ounce of that good ready for the release!
