(From Sirens compilation; 2021)
Obligatory wrap-up post of those songs I've played most during the month when Traxamillion left this mortal coil. Turns out that Trax really was "about the women" on his final compilation from last year. The Big D sure got around in 2021.
The Jacka - Heavy Rain (CDQ) (2007/2021)
Traxamillion - Spaceship (2008)
Homeboy Sandman - Come Thru (2016/2021)
Bruiser Wolf - Dope Game Stupid (2021)
Seiji Oda ft. Lil' Ricefield - Gasbreakdip (2021)
Seiji Oda - Pomegranite (2021)
YRB NY - Replace Me (2021)
Tony Shhnow - Sometimes (2021)
Tony Shhnow - Slow Crash (2022)
HAZEY - Packs and Potions (2022)
Other notables: I'm not too interested in A-Wax's current music but I can't resist that Freddy's Glove song; AZ went in over Larry Smith & Davy DMX's 1983 Oberheim drum track on Stay Fly; DaBoii probably paid an arm & a leg for that Gwen Stefani sample on Bananas so it's a pity he didn't maximise it and make something a bit more anthemic; cool to hear a Top Billin' sample on Blu's People Call Me Blu(e); I ain't tryna hear CeeFineAss making fake Detroit music.
PS: Party Sparty brought the baby blue to blogspot and started his own outpost to talk about movies, music, and music from movies. A good place to start is his Top 50 Blaxploitation soundtrack songs list. I'm the Martadoxical, he's the Spartvexical and it's an 'art attack like Neil Buchanan.

Honoured by the shout-out, blud.
Thanks!
Coming soon - Yak Blogspot?
Pleasantly surprised with the increased blogging activity this january.
That Blaxploitation post is seriously good stuff. Nice going man.
I know A-Wax is way past it, but last year's "Trophy Case" and "Step Off" were pretty good though.
Besides "Stay Fly", "This Is Mine" was another pretty good AZ bonus track, right?
Yeah that was was cool.
I'll probably end up posting no more than 3 times in February now.
Is anyone else confused as me when 2chainz became accepted with the real hip hop crowd never in a million years would I except to hear him on songs with AZ produced by Statik Selektah.
Never forget that A-Mafia had 2 Chainz on a song back in 2011. Mafia was a true New York trendsetter.
Surprised Blu’s name popped up on here
I don't mind a bit of Blu.
seems like maybe daboii didn't clear the "bananas" sample at all because it's still not on proper dsps
He should rework it.
