Generic list post: July 2018

Obligatory wrap-up post of those songs I've played most during the month when nobody needed the return of that rapist Yung Gleesh.

Mac Dre - Just Listen (demo) (1989)
70th Street Carlos - Rich N*gga Bitch (2017)
70th Street Carlos - Fat Girl (2018)
DJ Premier ft. Casanova - Wut U Said??? (2018)
Valee - Allat (2018)
Sada Baby & FMB DZ - Planet Of The Apes (2018)
Kreayshawn & KJ-$ - Not My Job (Punk Cover) (2018)
Other notables: Yang Style gotta be the best song Chippass has dropped since the glory days of NhT Boyz (God bless DJ Fresh!); I'd probably dig that new Edan song if you didn't have to be in a secret club of ageing streetwear scenesters to hear it in full; not that into WNC Ram Bam & 70th Streer Carlos' Rod Play meself, but I'm happy to see ppl enjoying WNC music; Babyloaf's Yo' Bitch Mobbin' is noteworthy for being the birth of Hyphy Wap; Dres from Black Sheep's FUGITUP had the potential to be as good as his Top Shelf 8/8/88 song if there wasn't an unfortunate air of Wicked22ness to it; it's cool that someone rhymed over Trel Itz A Hit's instrumental remake of Beelow's I'm A Beast, but I'd rather just listen to the original meself.

JD's Gafflin' back!

"I got Skube wit' me and it's Mob, no Ice Cube wit' me
Got your boo wit' me, she sucked me off, I gave her two-fifty
Can't be too picky, 100 blues, this shit too sticky
No new n*ggas around me, that shit too iffy"

Sada Baby & FMB DZ - Planet Of The Apes
(From YouTube; 2018)


File this under ‘2018 Rap songs with references to Da Lench Mob.’

Ya host's favourite type of modern Detroit street Rap tends to be the stuff which doesn't necessarily sound like yer standard modern Detroit street Rap, thus this new Sada Baby & FMB DZ track is more mah spot than Sada Baby's big song of 2018 or any single FMB DZ has dropped since Friday.

This also explains why ya host would rather watch Ken Kaniff get gangbanged by D12 than ever sit through an album by any member of BandGang. No shotz @ the bennies or the Lonnies - I just don't think of you like that, lads.

Do The Chris

"I'm the type to watch ya house if you don't watch ya mouth"

DJ Premier ft. Casanova - Wut U Said???
(From t'internet; 2018)


File this under ‘songs ya host really wasn't expecting to dig.’

It's Super Producer Pree & Casanova Thug! (Geddit?) Uncle Murda isn't scheduled to release another good track until next year so this will do very nicely as 2018's slab of olde-worlde Brooklyn nastiness. Like Paul Joseph Watson nearly said, the Conservative Rap Coalition is the new counterculture.

Tryna remember the last Primo production I liked and it was that Game song with Master P lolz.

Wanted dead or alive: an MP3 of Real Bad Promo by Edan

Edan Real Bad Man Season 1 Bootleg 7” - White label. #VeryRare Given to family and friends to celebrate the first drop of the line @real_bad_man This KrautRock inspired jam classic features Edan the Humble Mag akak @edanexists one of the funkiest cats around and a uber producer/ rapper who just destroys the Can classic Vitamin C.. With his crazy chop of the infamous break coupled with some God MC influenced rhyming madness this slice of nice goes hard. love me some Edan the boys nasty with it. The B side is equally bananas as the Tokyo-based Dancehall wizards BIM ONE productions recruit vocalist Mr. Williamz for “Sorcerer”, which samples Tangerine Dream’s synth-heavy theme song from the 1977 cult film SORCERER. This pressing is beyond limited theres only 300 in existence! Done in conjunction with my man @adam208 and his killer new line @real_bad_man there is No digital release of this either u got blessed or you got less. #SuperDiscoBreakin #VeryRare #SaluteEdan #SaluteCan

Spotted on Dante Ross' Instagram, a new Edan song over CAN's Vitamin C. This is only available on some corny purposely-raer promo 7" that's already sold out because it was given away free to the ageing streetwear mafia, and there's no digital release planned. Song sounds like a bangeur, so who's got the 7" and is prepared to rip it?

Quite fond of Edan as a singles artiste here at The Martorialist: the Sprain Your Tapedeck EP (especially Run That Shit), the Emcees Smoke Crack (remix)/I'll Come Running Back To You 12", and the Funky Rhyming 7". Plus, ya host will always have a soft spot for Edan since his Fast Rap mix CD first put me onto Percee P & Ekim's Lung Collapsing Lyrics.

Kreayshawn's Punk cover of Not My Job deserves its own post

Kreayshawn & KJ-$ - Not My Job (Punk Cover)
(From the internet; 2018)


1. Best song Kreayshawn's been involved in since Pu$$y Magnet or wot?

2. You wait years for a decent Mac Dre tribute song and then this and Husalah's Bad Young Thing turn up within the space of a couple of months.

3. Saw someone compare this to Nausea, which is unfair because it bodies anything those Commie crusties ever recorded.

3. This is more akin to Kreayshawn fronting a Born Again$t reunion because Sam McPheeters was too busy writing for Noisey that day.

5. The main reason why this is the best Rock song of the 2010's thus far is that, unlike every other Rock song released this decade, it doesn't have terrible lyrics.

Just sayin', bruv # 16

The intro of Sum 41's Fat Lip video is a more credible attempt at Canadian Rap than anything ever recorded by Drake.

Shoreline Mafia are just Brockhampton if they'd met in the NoJumper YouTube comments rather than on the KanyeToThe message board.

New Yorkers under the age of 25 should be banned from making Rap music in 2018.

Apart from a handful of exceptions, New Yorkers over the age of 25 should also be banned from making Rap music in 2018.

Husalah is the ONLY American in the Rap industry who didn't make a complete tit of himself when attempting to comment on "Soccer" during the 2018 World Cup.

When the history books are written, Chance The Rapper will solely be remembered as the annoying twat who ruined Justin Bieber's Confident.

The only good songs to come out on G.O.O.D Music this summer are both by Valee.

What's Hell? Hell is reading Dart Adams droning on and on about video game release dates in his Tweets.

Shameless Re-Up Gong!

It was all good just a week ago and now it's even better. Updated my 70th Street Carlos loosies playlist with a song I'd previously missed - shit's called Rich N*gga Bitch and it's kinda like I Got A Story To Tell on a Baton Rouge budget, as produced by Mannie Fresh.
