Rapper's Convention - Stupid Fresh
Goodie Mob ft. Outkast - Sole Sunday
DJ Format ft. Abdominal - Ugly Brothers
Hi Rhythm - On the Loose
Styles of Beyond - Underground Sound
Wildchild - Wonder Years
And now: Style Wars
These are two of my favorite movies of all time. New York classic shit. Style Wars was one of the movies that really sparked my interest in graffiti. If you know me, you know how that turned out, but that's another story for another day. My favorite scene is probably where Madseen is putting up a burner and they're arguing between eachother and shit.
Anyway, it's really a classic film and it's one of the most important works in hip-hop history. So if you haven't checked it out, do so. It's good entertainment.
80 Blocks From Tiffany's
80 Blocks is on some slice of life shit. It's really, really good and it's pretty hard to explain. There isn't much of a plot but it's still really entertaining. You get to see how NY was in the 70s, which is regarded as one of its more chaotic periods. Basically, you gotta see it. The Savage Skulls, block parties, decimated city blocks, karateka gang member dude, it's just good.
In other news, I just watched Enter the Dragon and The Last Dragon again. The Last Dragon really doesn't hold up over time, but every time I beat someone in Tekken, I now wanna say SHO'NUFF. Enter the Dragon is just some timeless shit. I just saw Tai Chi Master with Jet Li, it was pretty damn good. It's pretty corny at some points and pretty brutal at others.
Enough about that though.
This is a dope album from the Hiero crew. One of their best releases, which is saying a lot.
3 Men at Chung King is a dope song, listen to it when you get a chance. Plus, Grand Puba mentions Kaity Tong, who is a family friend.
P.S.
Peace
