New Music: Bun B feat. Drake – Put It Down (prod. Boi-1da) 

Bun B,Drake,Trill OG,UGK,Underground Kingz

Track featuring Drizzy from his Trill O.G. album dropping next week. I hope the album is good because Trill was a classic to me but Trill II was kind of semi-basura!

Straight jack of the "Umbrella" (Rihanna) beat by PHS Prods. but that was a straight jack in itself anyway, so who's complaining? I like this though! Given where hip hop is in 2010, this deserves to be on a radio for a nice long stretch. Inspirational and anthemic - nice one, Chocs!

The plug:

"For the July 9th’s Skratch Bastid Presents: LET’S BUILD party at The Drake in Toronto, I flew in early to send a couple days practicing routines with Bastid for the show. During onr of our sessions him and I were playing the new Cam’ron & Vado heatrock “Speakin’ In Tongues” and I started chopping up different parts of the beat, flipping it inna dancehall stylee. We threw Cutty Ranks’ immortal “Limb By Limb” acapella over top of it and it and, as Bastid puts it, "instantly smoke filled the room and an airhorn sounded from the distance. Magical." We performed it live at the show to a great response. Here is a studio remix of the cut, so that you can mash up the party wherever you play it, be it desktop, poolside or club. Check it, download it, play it... have fun!"

Throwback Mixtape: Behold the Destroyer – Lamborghini Loafers 

Behold The Destroyer,Lamborghini Loafers,mixtape

Love this! How can you not f-ck with a mixtape that has the following description:

"The year is 1985, Chico Avaraldo — the biggest gun runner in Miami — has double crossed you for the last time. He’s sent his goons to rub you out and kidnap your girlfriend to sell into white slavery. They shot you in the back and torched your modest, albeit palatial estate. Left you for dead. They shoulda finished the job.

First mistake.

You jump in your Lamborghini and speed down the high way, doing 120 miles an hour. As your italian loafers press down on the accelerator you grip the wheel tightly, consumed with a desire for revenge — the sweetest of digestifs. As you hug the turns of the moonlit city streets you approach Avaraldo’s club. The lamborghini spins to a stop in front of the entrance. You open up the gullwing doors and jump out with BOTH of your Uzis blazing (you have two Uzis on you at all time). Avaraldo’s ninja bodyguards weren’t prepared for such a brash move.

Last mistake.

You enter the club and find Avaraldo holding your girl at gunpoint. It ends now.

NO MORE MISTAKES.

You know Avaraldo is most likely coked up, so he’ll be twitchy. This must be executed perfectly. He’ll never expect you to shoot your own girlfriend in the kneecap to distract him. But just as you prepare to sacrifice her flash dancing career for a life with you. Avaraldo shoots her! You. Heart broken. Kill everyone in the club. It’s over. As you hold her lifeless body in your arms you think back on the good times.

The dancing. The love. The lobster. The Fashion. The sex.

This is what plays…"

CONTEST: Win Tickets to the Saidah Baba Talibah Video Premiere Party at the Gladstone Hotel in Toronto 

Photobucket

Photobucket

Its all going down August 5th.

I've featured this Toronto singer previously on The Kitchen HERE. Her soulful, stripped-down bluesy style on the songs that make up her EP, The Phone Demos are a breath of fresh-air in a world of over-produced, digitally sterile-sounding music.

Directed by short film director Sarah Michelle Brown, the video being premiered next week, for “Place Called Grace” from the EP, is set in a 1920’s speakeasy and features choreography by Lisa Auguste (SYTCD Canada). Click HERE to watch a behind-the-scenes of the shoot.

Wanna be among the first to see the video? Here's the details:

Who: Saidah Baba Talibah
What: World premiere of “Place Called Grace” video sponsored by Exclaim!
When: Thursday August 5th, 2010, 9 pm
Where: The Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen St. West
$10 at door
$15 with DJ L’oquenz CD
RSVP: tenfourcommunications@yahoo.ca


Wanna be a part of the action down at the super-trendy Gladstone Hotel next week but your paper's kinda short? Never fear, The Kitchen's got you sorted with our latest contest: to win a pair of FREE TICKETS to attend the video premiere party and also see Saidah perform live, send an email (subject line: 'Saidah Contest') and a winner will be selected at random and announced August 4th by me. Deadline for entries is 11:59:59PM ET on August 3rd.

Up North Tip Videos: Cold Front Record Release Party (1991), CKLN 88.1 FM Radio Rarities 

Two Old School Canadian hip hop posts in a row??! That's how we do it for 'T.dot Thursdays' at The Kitchen:



and Part 2: the Cold Front Freestyle hosted by John Bronski featuring Base Poet, Thrust, SonyaLive, Maestro Fresh Wes, T Soul, Kish, Motion, 10-Kay and even Maestro manager (and Canadian Idol judge) Farley Flex spittin' some bars:



Love those 2 Black Guys t-shirts!


Props to Teddy C.D. at The T.R.O.Y. Blog who posted these clips HERE as part of his Canadian Hip Hop Series.

These videos were shot at the release party for the Cold Front compilation album which was the first-ever compilation of all-Canadian hip hop. When I came across that StreetBeat, Break’N Out album in the post below, I got confused because that album, which I'd never heard of (or just don't remember), seemed to pre-date this project but, according to my man, John Adams who executive produced the Cold Front comp, that album was really just an 'artist album' featuring the roster of pioneering Canadian hip hop label, Beat Factory Records. That seems to fit the definition of a compilation to me but maybe I'm missing something?

Michele Bachmann thinks Pres. Obama is turning Americans into a 'Nation of Slaves' 

Photobucket

This broad is amazing! Read the f-ckery HERE.

What would you expect though from this idiot who co-signs the Tea Party movement's mission. For her to claim to have never seen anything that could be considered even remotely racist at any Tea Party rallies simply strains credulity!

But enough of the polarizing racially-tainted stories burning up the newswires. Let's move on to some other stuff that shows that, here at The Kitchen, we don't see color!

Shirley Sherrod and the Race Issue Run Amok in the US (Again!) 



Apparently the Right Wing Blogosphere went crazy yesterday when an edited version of the above video of USDA Georgia official, Shirley Sherrod addressing a local chapter of the NCAA purportedly showing her to be a 'racist' went viral.

Watch the video though, in particular around the 16:30 mark which is where you can watch the full unedited part of her words that were taken out of context by Andrew Breibart's Big Government blog. Of course, the reality of Sherrod's word was far less sinister (read: the total opposite of what was being alleged). Sadly though, even the NCAA, who hosted the event where this 'scandal' all kicked off in the first place, and allegedly the White House got caught up in the BS.

The Tea Party and wingnuts must have been doing a jig when this bogus-ass story broke and the spotlight was temporarily off their f-ckery though. Amazingly, they are now even attacking the NCAA for having joined in their witch-hunt condemning Sherrod's supposed bigotry. *Smdh...*
