DJ Tony Touch, just dropped the third annual “Best Toca Tuesdays Freestyles” Mixtape this week. Tony Touch is a New York legend, and one of the best djs out there, if you don’t know about the 50 Mcs parts 1, 2, and 3 mixtapes you should do some homework. Anyways, back to the Toca Tuesdays Freestyle Mixtape, this mix is a compilation of freestyles that happened during the course of the year on Tony’s weekly radio show Toca Tuesdays on the Sirius Shade 45 station. There are appearances by Black Thought, Sean Price, Apathy, Evidence, Skyzoo, Capadonna, Tech N9ne, and Reks just to name a few.

New England Sports Wrap up 1-3-2012
The baseball off season is still in effect, teams are tweaking their rosters adding players they think will fit their teams. Recently the Red Sox acquired a few bullpen arms to their depleted pitching staff. They acquired relief pitcher Mark Melancon (age 26) from the Astros for utility infielder Jed Lowrie and relief pitcher Kyle Weiland. They also acquired closer Andrew Bailey (27) from the Athletics for outfielder JJ Reddick. Both pitchers are young and cost controlled for a few years.
The New England Patriots wrapped up their season with a 49 point come from behind win over the Buffalo Bills. They trailed the game 21-0 at the end of the 1st quarter then rolled off 49 straight points to blow the Bills out! Tight end Rob Gronkowski set the single-season record for tight ends with 1,327 yards receiving on the season. Gronk also set a record with 17 receiving touchdowns for tight ends; he also had a rushing score. Now the Patriots sit back on their bye week and wait to see who travels to Foxboro for their first playoff game.
The Boston Celtics season is under way after the lock out. To start the season Paul Pierce was injured and the team got off to a rough start with a few tough losses. Pierce is now back and Rondo is controlling the pace of the games and the team is now 3-3 in the lock out shortened season.
The Boston Bruins are still hot with winning 7 out of their last 10 although they have dropped a few points out of first in the Eastern division. Their record on the season as of now is 24-10-1 with 49points.
A RECIPE FOR DISASTER – 401 PRODUCTIONS – 1997 VOL2
This right here is the RECIPE FOR DISASTER – 1997 volume 2 graffiti video. Originally released under “401 PRODUCTIONS” by Dirty Ole Frank and Luna Sea Skate Shop. Recently VHS ripped by a good friend of mine Doc Dan. (Remember those big black tapes you would had to put in the VCR, and had to rewind at the end which always felt like an hour of awkward silence. hahaha.)
If you were around in this era, (the graffiti golden era of Rhode Island) you should know these spots and these writers. Pay close attention to the Tunnel Vision section. HENCE paints a burner on the old Depot trackside’s in afternoon daylight. ahhhh those were the days.
…. If you don’t know, now you know….
real shit. DL
New Music Video From Rock of Heltah Skeltah
Check out this brand new music video from Rock of Heltah Skeltah. This video just dropped on Monday, and is the feature of Rock’s “Monsta Mondays” where he will be releasing new material every Monday. The Brooklyn native Rock has been holding down hip hop since he first appeared on “The Fabulous Five” 12″ that dropped in 1995.
The Art of the MPC!!
The MPC has been a key element in Hip Hop production for over 2 decades and continues to be a be a key player even as technology continues to evolve. I don’t think this tool will ever be replaced in the Hip Hop game due to the fact of digging through Vinyl and searching for the right sample to chop up. Technology can’t replace that and it is a true art to ear out the perfect sound to chop up and make it fresh. J Depina who is a Rhode Island legend in production displays the art of finding a sample and chopping it up to perfection. stART creating!
DR. DRE DETOX? Will it ever drop?
Dr.Dre first talked about the detox album in 2000. It’s been 11 years and it still hasn’t dropped! WTF! I have been a Dre fan forever and have been patiently waiting this cd, but how much longer can we as fans wait for this? Are we being played to think this is eventually going to come out? It was rumored to drop in 2004 then 2007. Well it will soon be 2012! Rumored to be co-produced by Scott Storch with guest appearances by the following artists: Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Knoc-Turn’al, Lloyd Banks, Guvner, and The Game. Aftermath affiliated producers such as Hi-Tek, Kon Artis, Nottz and Mahogany are also working with Dre for the album. Bishop Lamont said that he recorded vocals for some potential Detox tracks, and that Mel-Man had co-produced some tracks. This is a much-anticipated album with many guest appearances and still nothing to show for it! What’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
