R.I.P to Baseline!

Here is a couple videos of Just Blaze and cohorts reminiscing in the now Debunked Baseline studios (R.I.P)







Here are also a couple of pictures from the wake lastnight!



Photos by: Alexander Richter

Some real classics from the likes of Jay-z n the Rocafella fam

Here is why Just shut it down:

"Just said it was time to shut it down because all these big studios that were around are not getting as much business because the music scene has taken such a digital turn and so they are getting put of business one by one. So he said while Baseline could have stayed open, when you see something coming (like all the other studios closing) why would you keep it open?" ((this is a summary of what was said in a interview))

New Jay Electronica [[Mixtape]]

DJ DUB & Furious Styles Present: Jay Electronica [[Victory]]

Not much to say about this one ....haven't seen a track list....so i'm assuming its Jay's old material compiled .....but if ur a fan or don't know much about the dude def. check this out it should give u a good feel about his music.

Here is what both DJs had to see about Electronica:

“In the current state of music, an artist like Jay (Electronica) deserves the attention of anyone who even THINKS they like Hip-Hop. We’re not saying that he’s the savior but he’s been working on the humble for years and Exhibit C opened him up to the world. World, meet Jay Electronica…support his victory for Hip-Hop.” – DJ DUB


“I truly believe that everyman has a story and Jay Electronica’s story is definitely the current soundtrack to Hip-Hop. He makes the impossible seem possible. Dub and I wanted to share his soundtrack with those that were unfamiliar. Let’s welcome back the lyricists to Hip- Hop.” – DJ FURIOUS STYLES.

Jay-ZxReflection Eternal

No this post doesn't feature any annoucements of new music in the making between Jay-z n Talib Kwele and Hi-Tek ....but this post is def. on some 6 degrees of kevin bacon stuff (#whoremembers that game? lol )



First up we have the premiere video for Jay-Z ft. Swizz Beatz "On To The Next One"




Another Jay-Z video and more allegations of being involved with the secret order of the Illiminati ....... lol .....which I think is utterly ridiculous and on that note this is what Talib Kwele had to say about these claims via his twitter:




With these tweets in mind people don't be suckers to this internet bs .... all these things are coincedental ...... If these figures were truly apart of this long dead all powerful secret society don't you think they would be a little more discreet about letting ish like this leak on the internet???? ...... And like Kwele said we could be lending more thought to things we can actually change here in the real world ...if these people really are involved in the said organization and are bent on the destruction of the world ...wth! is a couple of people who watch youtube videos going to do about it! ....it would be enevitable that this anarchy that they are here to inflect upon the world would occur! .....Lets do something better with our time like better other peoples lives and add some stability and substance to our own!



lol after that lil tangent ....here is reflection eternals mixtape that came out on New Years Eve enjoy!
