No worries, not a dodgy mashup mixtape I'm plugging, but rather Stretch Nav and myself showing love to a couple of producers we hetero-jockride by uploading a few tracks. I picked the 'Ye tracks and ma man supplied the Digi Snacks:
Supercat ft Meth - Scalp Dem
why RZA's music can be sometimes described as eerie. In a good way though.
More RZA/reggae collaborations...this time with Lex Diamonds and Bounty Killer. Original has Killarmy and a choice vocal snippet from Full Metal Jacket.
Raekwon, Masta Killa, Streetlife, Inspectah Deck - Execute Them
From the Killa Bees Swarm album.....the Chef, Masta Killa, Streetlife and Inspectah Deck. Beat is crazy...digi sounds.
Lord Superb and Solomon Childs over some RZA soulful chamber loops.....more Wu killabees talent, off 02's Killa Beez The Sting album
Think this was supposed to be on the Kill Bill 2 soundtrack...more Wu collabos.
"...My beats travel like a vortex
through ya spine to the top of your cerebrum cortex
make you feel like you bust a nut from raw sex..." - Bobby
Jay-Z - This Can't Be Life
Always best to start from the beginning and this, 'Ye's 1st contribution to the Roc, to quote him on the Dropout, helped start the resurgence of the "soul sound".
A few years down the line and dude's spitting on mixtape tracks like this. Nice track, but to be honest, in '03 I was thinking dude NEEDS to just stick to making beats.
T.I. - Doin' My Job
Also in '03, Kanye contributed this track to T.I.'s breakthrough "Trap Muzik". Great song from a great album.
Slum Village - Selfish
Sick drums and a great John Legend hook on this one. I have great memories of this track, as it was my theme music at my best mate's high school leaver's party...got superdrunk, threw up, was thrown out of the club and passed out in the back of someone's pickup truck. Good times :)
Mobb Deep - Throw Your Hands
The Mobb do like to keep it all the way gangsta and here Kanye does a good job of hooking them up with a track that can be both danced to AND mean-mugged to. No mean feat.
"...If y'all fresh to death, then I'm deceased
And this one here, is a heat rock
Spit like a beat box, the way the beat rocks
New version of Pete Rock..." - K.West
