T.R.O.Y. Guest Blogger w/Meyhem Lauren

Monday, February 25th, 2013

meyhem

If you’ve been following T.R.O.Y. for awhile it’s no secret we’ve been day one supporters of Meyhem Lauren, so it was only natural we ask the big homie to help set-off  Guest Blogger for ’13 with his Top 10 Grimiest NYC Tracks of All-Time.

Do yourself a favor and get acquainted with one of the realest and truest throwbacks hip-hop has today. Check out his debut double album Self Induced Illness available  on Amazon. You can also download his two must-own mixtapes Respect The Fly right here or Mandatory Brunch Meetings here. –Philaflava

10) Onyx - Walk in New York
“NYPD CAN SUCK MY DICK!”
 9) ODB – Brooklyn Zoo
Dirty sets the tone of the song from the second that it starts.
 8) Shabazz The Disciple – Crime Saga
This record is perhaps the most detailed and descriptive crime story ever. Shabazz has a flow that is unmatched on this record.
7)  Cormega Feat. Mike Delorian - Fuck Nas
Even though this track was a diss record specifically about Nas and nature it embodies the general sound of that grimy Queens NYC rap that raised me. “Fuck gold chains and sneakers I had that when cocaine was cheaper”
6) M.O.P. – Cold Word
“Slum ass wanna be hard ass nigga / cornball butter soft lard ass nigga!” Nobody keeps in grimier then Fame and Billy I could have picked 10 M.O.P. songs if I wanted to compose this list but I decided to go with this one. “It’s a cold world so bitch nigga dress warm!”
5) Tragedy Khadafi Feat. Imam Thug – True Confessions
“Clappin Co’s bustin PO’s right in their knee caps” Not only is this track a grimey NYC street life anthem but the skill level and wordplay that Trag and Imam hit you in the head with is flawless. This beat epitomizes the sound of real inner city gorilla rap.
4) 50 Cents – Thicker Then Water
 ”Move during the jux you know I’m gon’ shoot so you gonna pay me or the hospital duke/ don’t call me to feature I don’t wanna rap with ya I brought my knife in the club I came to scrap with ya!
3) Capone & Noreaga Bloody Money.
Even though Parole violators has the grimiest lyrics on the War Report ” Bloody Money is undisputably a NYC street anthem and should be listened to at a high volume while drinking Hennessy or cleaning a fire arm.
2)  Kool G Rap – Take ‘Em To War Feat. MF Grimm &  B One
Take em to war “Grimm gimmie the infrared and semi and I’m puttin red dots on niggas foreheads and making muthafuckas Indian you got beef go get yourself a wreath because its murder cause I put holes in my beef like fuckin white castle burgers.”
 1) Mobb Deep – Shook Ones Pt. 2
This record was special not only because the production and rhymes were flawless but because it was also a commercial success and caused a whole wave of NYC street anthems to drop soon after.

A brand new vaporized blend project. Don’t sleep.

An Introduction to Dj Nastee: “The Resume”

Saturday, March 24th, 2012

This mixtape actually has a video promo for it, click here and watch.

Those of you who remember the name Dj Nastee, it’s probably from his work with Hard 2 Obtain. Or maybe from some of the renowned demos he produced that got play on Stretch and Bobbito. We’ll get to those at another time. Get the links after the jump. (more…)

The Infamous Mobb Deep x Milkcrate Athletics

Wednesday, March 14th, 2012

I knew that Milkcrate had these shirts in the works, but haven’t been able to track one down. And I wasn’t too keen on all the colors, until I saw the exclusive one at Digital Gravel (use the code EASY30 at checkout if you want to order one).

from Digital Gravel:
“Two legendary NY icons collide in this incredible collab tee… The Infamous Mobb Deep and Milkcrate Athletics.

This is an official collaboration and probably the only time in recent memory that the M-O-B-B has released a tee with their OG logo on it… and what a better way to execute it than with the OG veterans-of-the-game at Milkcrate Athletics.

This version of the tee is a DG Exclusive, with the colors picked to match the original album artwork from their classic debut, and give the respect due to NY.

Mobb Deep logo on the front. Milkcrate Athletics logo on the back. Talk about droppin’ a gem on ‘em.”

 

Also while Googling, I spotted a nice new Mobb Deep mix over at HighSnobiety by Milkcrate Athletics & The Butcher’s Block. Covers the classics, the gems and the “Illson” track produced by Aaron LaCrate. It’s nothing mind blowing, but a good review of some of Mobb’s finer and more popular material.

1. Prodigy Intro
2. G.O.D. Part 3
2. G.O.D. Part 3 (Remix)
4. Hell on Earth
5. Illson ft Aaron LaCrate
6. Give Up The Goods (Just Step)
7. Quiet Storm ft. Lil Kim
8. Drop a Gem on Em
10. Drink Away The Pain
11. Have a Party ft 50 Cent
12. Got it Twisted
13. Temperature Rising (Remix)
14. Shook Ones Pt 1
15. Shook Ones Pt 2
16. Outta Control (Remix) ft 50 Cent

Red Bull Music Academy “Five Out Of Five” Lecture Series

Tuesday, October 18th, 2011

According to the RBMA website:
The Red Bull Music Academy pays tribute to hip hop, arguably the most influential youth culture of our time – right where it all began. Over the course of five days, five classic albums from five boroughs are revisited via workshops and public talks in each respective borough. At night, the artists re-create their seminal work for a special concert, bridging the gap from old to new school. The five albums are: ‘The Great Adventures Of Slick Rick’ (1988), Black Moon’s ‘Enta Da Stage’ (1993), ‘Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)’ (1993), ‘The Infamous’ by Mobb Deep (1995), and Dipset’s ‘Diplomatic Immunity’ (2003). Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Staten Island, Manhattan – stand up!

 

Each of these videos are pretty long (an hour+ to two hours), but certainly worth the watch. So far I’ve only had the time to watch the Slick Rick and Wu-Tang/Raekwon lectures, but both have been very in-depth and extremely informative as the artists break down their albums.

Thanks to Step One for the original link. RBMA has these all on lock-down, so I’m unable to embed them.

Lecture: Slick Rick (RBMA World Tour 2011)

 

Lecture: Black Moon (RBMA World Tour 2011)

 

Lecture: Wu-Tang Clan (RBMA World Tour 2011)

 

Lecture: Mobb Deep (RBMA World Tour 2011)

2Pac – NY ’87 feat. Kurupt, Threat & Daz (Jeru, B.I.G., Mobb Deep, ATCQ diss)

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

A bunch of disses on this thing. Did anyone know about this track? Channel Live, Jeru The Damaja, Notorious B.I.G., Mobb Deep, Tragedy Khadafi, and A Tribe Called Quest all get called out on this one. I can honestly say this is the first time I’m hearing this track and knew nothing about it prior to Magneto dropping it on Philaflava.
