One album that is receiving serious play time right now is the new Strange Fruit Project . You may or may not be familiar with these cats. The new EP ( M.A.S.K) Making Art Sound Kool was released a few days ago for Free. Originally from Texas, the groups sound  is nothing close to what you may think southern hip hop may sound like.  The sound is raw, witty and uncommon hip hop.

The “M.A.S.K” EP features production from SFP’s own S1, as well as 9th Wonder, Caleb, and Picnic.

Ever since Terry brought up this idea I’ve been feigning for a listen. This track will kill a dance floor, but I want more Bowie! I’ll reserve judgment until the full project drops Friday.

With the success of  ”Viva La Hova” and “Southerngold”… Terry Urban leaks the first single off  his new remix album “Lady Stardust” which mashes up pop sensations Lady Gaga and David Bowie. Terry felt a remix project like this needed to be done with such similarities between the two pop icons. The album will be released for free download Friday, November 20th.

Mick Boogie & Terry Urban came to rock U.C. Riverside a few weeks back. Pheo & I showed the fellas around the Inland and helped rock the party. The buffoonery was documented below:

Nothing lasts forever and all things must come to an end. Those two cliches exemplify the truth of this world. In that vain down  in San Diego tonight will be the final “Soul Sauce”.  All lovers of good music and good times should make it out there and enjoy the “Sauce” one last time before it’s gone.

In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of Reebok Pump Packer Shoes has commissioned the 5th Platoon’s Vin Roc to produce a special mix for this occasion.

Also on personal note Vin Roc has made this mix as a celebration of one of the NBA’s best loved players from 80’s. The Atlanta Hawks very own Dominique Wilkins aka “The Human Highlight Film”.

I put this mix together to commemorate his career and put together some tracks that were out during his time. Kind of like a soundtrack to his life and times

Now kick your weekend off right with this mix of classic tunes.

I got another great mix by DJ Franchise. This time he lays down some mid 90’s and early 2000 Hip Hop.Not total mainstream nor underground but a perfect mixture of both. The mix includes Nas, Rakim, Notorious BIG, Heltah Sketah & Common.
