Led by B-Real with his nasal, singsong delivery and Sen Dog to play the perfect hypeman, Cypress debut fueled tales of revenge, revolution, recreational drug use, gangbanging, and cultural pride. Like Public Enemy before them the Production was also a key factor in what made this debut so groundbreaking. DJ Muggs was able to craft a blueprint that would change Hip Hop production with his innovative stoned out beats. Records like How I Could Just Kill a Man, Pigs, Stoned is the Way of the Walk and Hand on the Pump made this album the instant classic that it is.

Sermonizing Black Nationalism, Pan-Africanism and the benefits of a healthy and just lifestyle during the height of the Bad Boy \/ Roc-A-Fella era of nihilistic excess in the late 90s, they also signed to a major label (Loud \/ Columbia) despite leaning much more towards the burgeoning indie aesthetics of the day. But this was a good thing – using major label muscle to wake up righteous hip-hop fans who might have fallen asleep at the wheel.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The group itself – consisting of MCs stic.man and M-1, who produced or co-produced most of the duo's music – was formed in Tallahassee, Florida in the early 1990s (M-1 originally hailed from Brooklyn). By later that decade, the duo had started making significant waves, having their music heard on the soundtracks to Soul In The Hole and Slam, as well as appearing on albums by Big Pun and The Beatnuts.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e By 1998, they released their first official single, the serious, stark Police State, on Loud, appropriately brought to the label by Lord Jamar of Brand Nubian. After building a solid rep over the next two years with fiery live performances, in 2000 they unleashed their debut album, Let's Get Free. The album was a welcome return to provocative and often radically political rhetoric that hearkened back to hip-hop forebears including The Coup, Public Enemy and KRS-One (as well as poetic descendants like the Last Poets and Watts Prophets).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Let's Get Free was critically acclaimed and benefited from multiple singles, including the infectious, thick analog drive of Hip-Hop (which became the de facto theme song for Chappelle's Show); Its Bigger Than Hip-Hop, with a remix co-produced by a young Kanye West; Mind Sex (with Abiodun Oyewole of the Last Poets), and the poignant Im An African. But the singles weren't the only worthy songs, as just about every cut here has deeper meaning than most full albums by their early 2000s peers. Highlights: the thought-provoking, anti-drug album opener Wolves; We Want Freedom (co-produced by frequent collaborator Hedrush); They Schools and Propaganda (co-produced by Lord Jamar, one of five songs he assisted on).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e All in all, this is one of the more underrated and possibly Top 5 fully-realized political hip-hop albums of all time.

During this time Marvel Comics had reached out to Czarface wanting some music to soundtrack their Black Panther web series, promoting their breakout comic of the same name. This Marvel meeting spawned the lead track All in Together Now and served as the primary inspiration for a fleshed-out album that nobody saw coming. The group camped out in the studio playing beats, talking comics, video games, and pop culture....what came about was A Fistful of Peril.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Starting the album off with the ARP keyboard odyssey of Electric Level 1 is like entering the vortex of color and light in Kubricks 2001. The aptly titled Two in the Chest showcases Deck \u0026amp; Esos ability to deliver punchlines and pop culture references with ease over an exceptional bass and guitar combo. Czar Wars has the two sparring back and forth bringing that X-Men\/Danger Room mentality that Deck often to refers to when in Czar-mode. Psycho Les of The Beatnuts steps in on Dust while Lizard City introduces Czarface Pajamas. Yes you read that correctly. The off-kilter Steranko has Meyhem Lauren and Rast join forces with Czarface as they weave their way through a mind-bending array of varying beats. Other features on the album are Conway on Machine, Man \u0026amp; Monster and AOTPs Blacastan on Tarantulas. Another one of the albums highlights is Dare Iz A Darkseid which along with Talk That Talk is the perfect balance of wit and humor that make up the core of Czarface.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Building on an already rock solid foundation with two critically acclaimed albums, A Fistful of Peril features some of the groups most cohesive material.

Jazz, blues, R\u0026amp;B, soul, hip-hop, house, gospel. One influential genre is always left off of the list: a folk music known as rock n roll. Rock n roll was a term originally coined to market the white-friendly version of a genre that already existed; prior to 1965, the line between rock n roll and R\u0026amp;B was thin: Ike Turner recorded and released Rocket 88 in 1951 and, while its Chess Records release reached number one on the Billboard R\u0026amp;B chart, it is regarded by many as the first rock n roll record.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Great Divide between R\u0026amp;B and rock n roll came after the Beatles and the British Invasion decimated the Top 40 chart in 1964. Simultaneously, R\u0026amp;B entered a new phase, soon to be labeled soul, which upped the musics gospel quotient and turned its frantic twang. So somewhere in the mid to late-1960s, rock n roll became perceived as something for the Caucasian kids. When Jimi Hendrix and Arthur Lee made the scene, they were said to be black musicians entering into a white world. While that couldnt be farther from the truth, that false dichotomy has existed in Americas popular conscious ever since, to the point where the idea of a black rock musician is on the level with the idea of a black cowboy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In the mid-1960s, funk replaced soul as the rhythm that was going to move the world. We know all its progenitor - James Brown, The Meters, Kool \u0026amp; The Gang - and their innovations: the syncopated, 4\/4 dance between the bass and drums, horns repurposed as percussion, chicken-scratch and wah-wah guitar. We can trace where they came from. But there is one crucial funk influence that no one seems to want to acknowledge – a devil-may-care attitude we can attribute to rock n roll. Its not a stretch to say that funk is the African-American answer to psychedelia and hard rock rolled into one.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The idea of progressivism that took over rock music after psychedelias heyday in the late 1960s belatedly spilled over to funk. In the early 1970s, as the underground\/psychedelic fire burnt out in the white rock world, it roared to a blaze in the black musical community. Nearly every American city with a large black population boasted self-contained funk bands that didnt consider themselves simply revues or backup groups, but rather fully-operational ensembles In these bands, everything from composing, arranging, record production and distribution, was handled in house by band members. These are the bands whose music comprises this anthology, and while theyre all different, theyre unique in one way: they kept their ears open for new developments in funk and rock music.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This anthology presents earnest questions as to why we know so little about these bands and the movement of which they were a part. While we dont anticipate that well ever find a definitive answer as to what these ensembles true goals were, then, we do know that they took their charges seriously. And they knew they were onto something different, something that, though only they and their immediate kin might recognize it, was more interesting than the status quo. Function Underground shines light on an important and overlooked part of rock n rolls history and talented ensembles that toiled in the shadows, derided by their peers.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Do you realize that Hendrix was dead before most black people in America knew he was a black man? Ebony Rhythm Band drummer Matthew Watson questions rhetorically. We was scorned. In that era, everybody else in the black community was wearing three-piece suits, processes and Afro wigs and that shit. We was the first guys to wear bell bottoms. The first guys to wear big hats. We were off into a whole other thing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 1984– There's A Wrinkle In Our Time\u003cbr\u003eA2 Purple Snow– Down By The River\u003cbr\u003eA3 Jimi Macon*– Jimi's Guitar Raps With The Bass\u003cbr\u003eA4 Creations Unlimited– Corruption Is The Thing\u003cbr\u003eA5 We The People)– Function Underground\u003cbr\u003eA6 Michael Liggins And The Super Souls– Loaded Back\u003cbr\u003eA7 Stone Coal White– Stone Coal White\u003cbr\u003eB1 Black Lites– BL Movement\u003cbr\u003eB2 Ebony Rhythm Band– Drugs Ain't Cool\u003cbr\u003eB3 Cisneros And Garza Group– I'm A Man\u003cbr\u003eB4 L.A.

While this is the latest in a series of single-artist collaborations for Madlib, after Jaylib (J Dilla), Madvillainy (MF Doom) and the street-centric O.J. Simpson with Detroits Guilty Simpson, the pairing is unique as it is the first time for Gibbs working with just one producer.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e On Piñata, where Gibbs can shift from textbook lessons in robbing and drugging on trackslike Scarface and Knicks, to perhaps the albums most personal song, Broken, a collaboration with Scarface, who, along with Tupac, DMX and 50 Cent, make up the rappers own Mount Rushmore of MCs (Youre getting a hurricane of all those motherfuckers hitting you at once when you listen to Freddie Gibbs, he says). Deeper, a Gibbs favorite and the third single from the album after Thuggin (2012) and Shame, (2013) is an ode to hip-hop in the mold of Commons I Used to Love H.E.R.; High, featuring Danny Brown, is self-explanatory and just what you would expect from Gibbs, Madlib and one of Detroits finest; while on Real, Gibbs addresses an old score just as Michael Corleone settled all family business on baptism day.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As a producer, Madlib, quite simply, is music, and ten years into his career-a time when other artists become comfortable-Gibbs remains restless, focused, with an eye on the competition and their position relative to his ascent. This is because mentally, hes still on the corner hustling, which would be the downfall of the average rapper. With Piñata, Gibbs confirms that he is anything but average.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Supplier\u003cbr\u003eA2 Scarface\u003cbr\u003eA3 Deeper\u003cbr\u003eA4 High feat Danny Brown\u003cbr\u003eA5 Harold's\u003cbr\u003eB1 Bomb feat Raekwon\u003cbr\u003eB2 Shitsville\u003cbr\u003eB3 Thuggin'\u003cbr\u003eB4 Real\u003cbr\u003eB5 Uno\u003cbr\u003eC1 Robes feat Domo Genesis, Earl Sweatshirt\u003cbr\u003eC2 Broken feat Scarface \u003cbr\u003eC3 Lakers feat Ab-Soul\u003cbr\u003eD1 Knicks\u003cbr\u003eD2 Shame feat BJ the Chicago Kid \u003cbr\u003eD3 Watts feat Big Time Watts \u003cbr\u003eD4 Piñata feat Casey Veggies, Domo Genesis, G-Wiz, Mac Miller, Meechy Darko, Sulaiman \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Madlib \u0026 Freddie Gibbs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":1733701402639,"sku":"ZZ-MMS022-LP","price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1741\/5543\/products\/Pinata.jpg?v=1589814705"},{"product_id":"vintage-ep-lp","title":"Vintage EP (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThough Slum Village have gone through many lineup changes since their inception in 1996, the group's music has stayed powerful.

Performances and all new recordings happened throughout the 60s, building interest in Bukka White’s Delta roots.

Some of the finest albums in the boogaloo and Latin soul genres were recorded for this label, including sessions by Joe Bataan, Johnny Colón and Larry Harlow. Cotique's product was marked by a refined aesthetic and unerring good taste - consider Machito's foray into r\u0026amp;b idioms on the Soul Of Machito LP. The label was also wise enough to invest in down-to-earth salsa, recording New York's ultimate barrio orchestra, The Lebrón Brothers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lebrón Brothers celebrated their 50th anniversary in the business in 2016. Their career spans five decades of doing things uniquely and uncompromisingly in their way: making funky, gritty, streetwise and relentlessly swinging music that mixed Spanish lyrics, Latin tunes and English-language r\u0026amp;b\/soul-oriented numbers. “Lebrón Brothers are the only other band (besides Willie Colón) to arrive during the boogaloo era and survive long after boogaloo was dead and buried,” comments Ray Rosado, leader of Maña. “I believe that for these two bands, boogaloo was merely a means to an end.” Originally called Angel Lebrón and his Orchestra in 1965 (co-founded by Puerto Rico-born brothers Angel on bass and José Lebrón on piano,) they changed their name to Lebrón Brothers at the suggestion of George Goldner (1918 - 1970) when they signed to his Cotique Records label during the peak of the 1966 - 1969 boogaloo craze. The eldest, Pablo Lebrón, sang Spanish lead vocals with the band until 1981 - when sadly, he suffered a stroke. Between 1967 and 1982, the band recorded 16 albums for Cotique, during which time brothers Carlos and Frankie joined on bongo and conga, respectively. The multitalented José and Angel wrote and arranged most of the material. Fania Records took over Cotique in the early '70s and drafted star bandleader Larry Harlow to produce one of the band's albums and Johnny Pacheco, the label's co-founder, to produce another three. Reportedly, Fania boss Jerry Masucci (1934-1997) tried to persuade the Lebrón Brothers to replace Pablo with a younger, thinner white lead singer. Proud of their Afro-Boricua heritage, they resisted and were consequently excluded from major industry opportunities. Angel and José eventually took over the reins of production on the band's 14th Cotique release in 1980, and Angel took the producer credit on the remaining two albums for the imprint (Frankie produced a one-off return to Cotique in 1998). “On all of their recordings, the coro is precise, the swing formidable and the message is both timely and seemingly prescient. That's more than enough to make up for whatever naïveté one might observe in their recordings at first blush,” says John Walsh, trumpeter with the Grammy Award-winning Spanish Harlem Orchestra, who began playing with Lebrón Brothers in the mid-'80s. “And then there's the vibe.

Broonzy was one of the few classic bluesmen to record with a full band, but he particularly defined himself from his peers through the remarkable range and power to his singing voice, which served him well as blues started to give way to the earliest incarnations of R\u0026amp;B music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBig Bill Broonzy also set himself apart from his contemporaries into the 1940s.

During this time, Broonzy would record one of his best-known singles, “Key To The Highway”, (a blues standard which would also be covered by Little Walter, Eric Clapton, and the Rolling Stones) and set the stage for a new wave of blues performers, and later rock and rollers, by being among the first of his genre to introduce electric instrumentation into his act.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 1950s were a banner year for traditional folk and country blues, where renewed interest in the styles led to new audiences in England and America. As numerous classic bluesmen began to come out of retirement to perform, Broonzy was already several steps ahead, having found additional success as part of a touring folk revue, and was featured alongside legendary folk singers such as Pete Seeger and Brownie McGhee. He continued to perform across folk and jazz clubs earning critical praise and standing ovations up to his death in 1958, having left behind an indelible blues legacy that inspired a wealth of legends, from Muddy Waters to Eric Clapton to Jerry Garcia.","brand":"Big Bill Broonzy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7393115668513,"sku":"ZZ-TEG78513-LP","price":24.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1741\/5543\/products\/TEG_78513_BIG_BILL_BROONZY_Big_Bill_s_Blues_LP.jpg?v=1528228983"},{"product_id":"plug-me-in-lp","title":"Plug Me In (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSaxophonist Eddie Harris – a favorite sample staple of jazz-leaning hip-hop producers of the ‘90s – was a very busy man in the 1960s, releasing albums at a brisk pace since his first as a leader in 1961. By the late ‘60s he had fully hit his stride, as both a performer and an innovator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA case in point is heard very clearly on this gem from Harris’ expansive catalog – 1968’s Plug Me In, which features his pioneering use of the Varitone saxophone effects processor unit (first heard on his 1967 album, The Tender Storm). The effect, used on “It’s Crazy” and “Ballad (For My Love)” never gets in the way, but gives the proceedings a feeling of “the next.” 1968 saw jazz entering a new era, influenced by electronic advances as well as the soul music dominating the pop charts of the day.

After years of building while modestly deferring to others of both greater and lesser notoriety, Dilla finally completed the first solo endeavor on his own label, entirely on his own terms. The significance of such an autonomous success often gets overlooked, and partly accounts for why Ruff Draft is one of the lesser-referenced entries in Dilla’s oeuvre. “It’s a mysterious little project,” says his mother, Maureen Yancey. “But out of his entire career, that was the happiest time.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrior to recording the EP, Dilla found himself at a crossroads. Estranged from his label MCA, and separated from the mother of his youngest daughter, frustration abounded both personally and professionally. Dilla spent parts of 2002 and 2003 working on an album for MCA that featured his rapping over contributions from other producers with whom he had connected and whose music he respected. At the time, he was known primarily for his beats, yet reviled for his MCing by most anyone not from his hometown of Detroit.
