CORNBREAD'S HONEYCOMB HIDEOUT

YO!!!! a little collage of fun for my people....enjoy. big ups to Barry White for the samples of the year.
Peace to my man Malcolm V. and all the crew who support my daily grind in becoming whatever it is I'm turning into.

Carlos Niño & Miguel Atwood Ferguson have chosen to pay tribute to J Dilla by interpreting his music in a contemporary chamber music style.

Carlos Niño and Miguel Atwood-Ferguson have been working together on a wide variety of projects, beginning in 2004 when Niño hired Atwood-Ferguson's string quartet to perform on Dwight Trible & The Life Force Trio's Love is the Answer (Ninja Tune). The J Dilla production “Antiquity” also comes from this project.

Suite for Ma Dukes initially began in 2007, on what would have been Dilla's 33rd birthday, when Niño & Atwood-Ferguson recorded and released their strings, brass and reeds-only version of J Dilla & Common’s “Nag Champa” to DJs, producers and fans over the internet for free. They had written the entire piece to accompany the record as a their tribute to Dilla, feeling that the producer was still in the track not by his presence but by his absence.

The 4 tracks on Suite for Ma Dukes cover Dilla's productions from “Antiquity” and “Nag Champa”, A Tribe Called Quest's “Find a Way” and Slum Village's “Fall in Love”.

J Dilla touched my life. He saved my life....and he saved my hiphop. May he rest in peace. this tribute may be over some heads but its most definitely fitting for the King.
James Dewitt Yancey (1974-2006) aka King James/ PayJay / Dilladawg / JayDee / Dilla.

yo, people. Brazil. 68 minutes. Sugarloaf mountain...nuff said.

this mix is for all that will not be able to attend this Friday's joint OR for those who are getting prepared for the throwdown of rhythm. Here is an exclusive mix of latin groove. Its mostly panamian and
other parts of the linkage to south america... boobies shaking across the world. Track listing? Yeah right!...enjoy . Thank you Q.

Luther Ingram, King James (Dilla), Marlena Shaw, Gang Starr, People under the Stairs...Bless you for listening.

a collection of artists embracing the work of issac hayes. all songs are using samples from the black moses, Mr. isaac hayes ( may he rest in peace ).Muro is on time with it.

you can figure this one out. big up to Mr. Stoney Jackson,the Beatjunkies, jon Bibbs, Kasey, Sweetlocs, J-Logic, Stones Throw, Dilla (lookin' down on us.)and my god for putting me in the lifetime to hear Micheal. Life without Micheal (crazy or not)is like peanut butter & jelly on wheat without the bread.

This mix is assembled from some older podcasts i did in which i featured some beatles cuts. there are only a few cuts on this that you may not have heard in previous mixes. Alot of the drum work that backlays beatles loops is bernard purdie...because he is the man. 24 minutes.
i hope you enjoy it.

To a specific group of people:
stop biting my shit ( you know who you are, the world is a small place my friends...and ears travel far.)I'm flattered that you find it worthy of stealing...but you're stealing and putting it under your name...thats just foul.
I apologize to the general public who will read this but it had to be said..

lemme put it this way, kids. Pete Rock was a game changer for hiphop in the 90's.Throughout the timeline of hiphop there have been greats...and goods... and bests...but there are not that many firsts. Because of the impact of his production and versatlity of the rockin' the mic,PR embodies the very definition of an icon...a true first indeed. His skills and catalog have a reputation that leaves him with a title of one of the greatest hiphop producers of all time. A sixteenth of his work crosses paths with Raekwon, Masta Killa, D-Block,House of Pain, Das Efx, A.D.O.R., Biggie, Ghostface, Baby Pa, Ini, Grap Luva(his younger brother), Heavy D( his cousin), Redman, Papoose, Slum Village and Jim Jones, among others...
Pete Rock has had a considerable impact on a number of record producers who have emerged in the hip hop scene since the late 1990s. Many critics have compared newcomers to him, generally favorably. Perhaps, most notable among these comparisons are the late Detroit producer J Dilla, and North Carolina's 9th Wonder, both of whom have worked with Rock during their recording careers. Several of the comparisons stem from the fact that these producers have created the bulk of their productions out of samples, as well as the warm, mellow, and exuberant undertones apparent in their work. Pete Rock himself has added validation to the comparisons with J Dilla by stating "he's the only producer in this game that was just as serious [as me]."
this the first of 3 volumes. enjoy.

this is a consolidated version of what i was hoping to drop/did drop at the show. i ran into glitches with faulty equipment and disrupted the flow of my set. A thank you is in order to Josh, Jimmy and Dave representing the BOOT. a huge thank you is in order to all the heads that came through.
