You Hungry???

Toms Diner // DNA featuring Suzanne Vega

When you live in my house, everything equates back to a song. Somebody is either humming or singing or beat boxing a song in this house. And damn near every situation that comes up in a conversation gets realated back to a song. Well, this morning my wife is singing throughout the house. And todays song happens to be Tom's Diner. Havent heard this song in years. But what I have heard and have used in a mix a few years ago is Daddy's Little Girl by Nikki D.

End to End Players vol. 1

Loose Ends // Look How Long (1990)


When was the last time you had a album that was an end to end player? You know, every track is bangin from track one to track whatever. No need to skip or fast forward. Loose Ends is one of my favorite R&B groups. I was just a shorty when this album came out. My brother used to play it all the time. All I remember is that it is a great album. I recently got my hands on this album again and its still bangin. And the production is incredible. I cant remember which songs were singles. But this whole album could be a single. You need to get up on it if you havent already. Heres a few of my favorite joints.

Loose Ends "Loves Got Me" // Look How Long



Loose Ends "Hold Tight" // Look How Long

Does Ye know about this!?!

So I'm perusing youtube and I stumble across this track. Dope as it maybe i can't help but wonder is mr. west aware of this?

It is obviously a take off:

i know, i know. One or more of you loyal HSD readers is saying, "but ave, Curtis made 'move on up' in '70, and Ye made touch the sky in '06".

Well loyal reader, there is a perfectly logical explanation for this. If you actually watched the touch the sky video (2:30)you'll see that the video was shot in '69 (Mr West was even ahead of the game by being one of the first to criticize president nixon early in his administration). At least a year ahead of Curtis.

......i know. i know..."But ave, Ye wasn't born until '77". Again, logical explanation best summed up in this early yet recent pic of Ye that should put this to rest

weezy? Is that you?

I was invited to contribute awhile back, so this is over due....but, you know....anywho.

My first post was supposed to be about a convo Donnie and i had, it goes something like this.....

We were talking about Weezy (not the one from above, but lil weezy/wayne {don't worry, i didn't forget the baby}, but I didn't want to scare people off before they read the point).

Sorry Ms. Jefferson.

Basically the consensus of my people back in the day was Wayne sucked. In the last couple years some of those people have come around to various degrees; from near g.o.a.t contention to thinking he has some entertaining lines (though she said she can't admit that to everyone). KRS was on Sirius awhile back and put it like this (I'm paraphrasing), "Wayne is dope.....definitely is hiphop.....but some of his subject matter can be a little young for my taste". Thanks Kris, couldn't have said it better myself. Being that this is a music blog on the internet i guess a link of sorts is warranted:

How'd this happen? (do I look like a mind reader) ion't know.

maybe it's the drug use.

maybe its a ghostwriter. maybe if you were rich before you could drive and had nothing to do all day but write lyrics you come up with some witty stuff too....

For Ave

Yo!! IT'S WORKIIINNNNNG!!! IT'S WOORRRKIIIINNNNG!!
Yeah! I finally put my setup back together. For those who dont know, my setup consists of: 2 gemini turntables (sorry, couldnt afford tech 1200's at the time), a stanton SK2F 2 channel mixer, M-Audio Torq (just like serato, only cheaper), and my monster 17 inch dell dual processor laptop. No, I havent put together a mix yet. It's comming. Be patient. But I got two joints that I only have on vinyl.




Montreaux 76 \\ 88 Keys


This joint here is for Ave. Back when i first got my turntables, Ave donated his small crate of records. Included in this crate was a 10 inch box set called The Beat Suite compiled by DJ Spinna. And on one of the records we found Montreaux 76. Its a nice jazzy/hip-hop insturmental. Takes me back to having lunch at the Mello Yellow in Hyde Park. They used to always have nice jazzy laid back music in the back ground. But anyway. Months ago, Ave hit me up and asked me to send him this song. So this ones for you.





Quicksand Millennium \\ The Roots


This song is the shit. Nuff said. Me, Ave, and Donnie all used to be heavy posters on Okayplayer. I cant remember which forum this used to come up in. But people talked about this song alot. I couldnt find this song for shit. Me and Ave used to hit the music stores on the regular. And I never seen nor heard this song anywhere. So I thought it was an urban legend. The shit just didnt exist. And I could see visions of Questlove picking his hair and laughing at me. But then one day, I'm in Grammaphones digging thru the racks and I see it. Immediately went into secret agent mode. Couldnt let anybody see what I was walking out of the shop with. Yeah, I paid for it. But it felt like I was stealing.
