Late Night with The Roots Mixtape

Art by KING Shake

Now I am not really a fan of Jimmy Fallons late night show but boy does he treat Hip Hop good. I am more of a Conan O’Brien fan but he does cool segments sometimes (XBOX Natal demo for my Gizmodo dudes). Anyway, the thank the DJ Heat for putting the tracks together. This mix a collection of mash ups performed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Nothing like The Roots holding down the instrumentals. Track list after the jump.

PMD Album Review: Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II

So the internet is going crazy for the second installment of The Purple Tape. Raekwon’s 4th album is a sequel to his first and is being hailed as progression! After 14 years he decides to release OB4CL II with a plethora of features. I didn’t grow up on The Purple Tape so I wasn’t impressed by OB4CL II. It was tales of cocaine and hood life over slow-paced beats. While that was great in 1995 this is 2009. I’m not a Wu enthusiast and this review will give you the other side of the coin. We don’t need to bring hip hop back we need to move it forward.

I know I’m kind of late throwing this up but I’ve been neglecting the inbox these past few days. It’s all good though, I will always make sure to deliver the hotness to my dukes. I know it’s the clean version but this is what we have to work with for now. Enjoy the verbal jousting on this banger.
