Sample sets for Big Daddy Kane, KRS-One and Onyx from Hip Hop is Read
Hip Hop is Read has been doing this excellent series of sample sets for a while but these are the latest ones they have featured. Kane's second album has always been slept on relative to his first classic, Long Live the Kane and KRS-One's Return of the Boom Bap is possibly the archetypal 90's-era 'boom-bap' hip hop album. Check 'em out if you're into beat diggin' and sample production stuff:

Live tonight in NYC: KRS-One & Marley Marl!!!
If you're from my era, you already know why this is kind of historic!!!

Just in case though, check this out from the e-blast I found out about this show in:
"More than 20 years after Boogie Down Productions and MC Shan & Marley Marl traded dis records in what was the first higly publicized rap beef of many to come, KRS and Marley will come together on stage at The Fillmore. No longer beefin about the origin of Hip Hop from their now infamous “The Bridge “ and “The Bridge is Over” musical debate, Krs-One and Marley Marl are set to make history with their upcoming release Hip Hop Lives.
In support of their brand new release, this somewhat surprising MC/DJ duo are set to blaze a path of Hip Hop unity in response to current attacks on lyrical content from the media and claims that the genre is dead from their peers. Out to prove that Hip Hop is indeed alive and well, Krs-One and Marley Marl are embarking on a three city tour, New York, D.C. and Philadelphia to spread the word. It ain’t so much about where the music came from, its about where its going."
Also just added: Joell Ortiz & Skillz. More details here. And view the video for Marley & Kris' "Hip Hop Lives" single here.
BTW: when did Irving Plaza become the Fillmore New York??
