Should've Been The Byrd Gang Album →
Essential mix* from The Martorialist for any Dipset fans (/over-enthusiasts).
The Martorialist (‘Mo Codenames) is criminally underrepresented on the Tumblrz despite 2011 being his 4th year delivering intelligent, original and often incisive rap music commentary on teh Internets.

Tom Breihan connects the dots between Wiz, Lil B, OF and, somehow, Drake and Kanye in this Pazz & Jop essay.

Tracklist below:

Squadda B Interview with BRYTBURKEN →
This interview came out a little while ago but has just been recently transcribed to English. Awesome look into Squadda’s mentality and sample style. Also a SAH shoutout, so you know I gotta rep it.

Okay, Blvck Diamond Life seemed like a couple of thoughtfully produced records surrounded by some good, though what seemed like partially sketched out Sade flips.
No one on this track is winning you over for their skills on the mic, but as seems to often be the case over the last few months, Droop-E’s production is winning.
Take the instrumental, release it under some pseudonym that...
