Jorge Ben - A Tabua de Esmeralda (1974)

^^ Not from '72 but whatever.
This album is soooooo good. Another Brasilian gem. Highly rated... generally regarded as Jorge Ben's seminal work... It really is beautiful.

Don't stop Get it Get it

Novos Baianos - Acabou Chorare

Album download is better sound quality obviously...
This is listed somewhere as the top Brasilian album of all time, I think from Rolling Stone or something... It is indeed amazing...


Get it and Daaance

Bullfrog - Bullfrog (2001)

This is Kid Koala with a full band... and MC Blurum 13 on some tracks.
Well really the point of downloading this album in my opinion would be to GROOVE fucking hard to the track Reverse Psychology, but I can't find a video anywhere, so just please download this and listen to that track, trust me.


Whaaaattttupppp?!?!

Shadrach Kabango

I've been a big fan of Shad for several years now, but after hearing the new album TSOL, I am blown away, Best work yet, Marvelous, great to see him in hip hop, I wonder if this album will break through to the mainstream. It would be good for the world to hear.

When This Is Over (2005)

TLO-Rough Waters(2010)

TLO - Anastasia from DJ TLO on Vimeo.

This is TLO, the DJ that tours with Shad K...
Interestingly, he was the last DJ to win Scribble Jam before it stopped happening. So unless it starts up again, he is the champ forevaah. Word life, this is a fantastic album of beats, great stuff.

Exile and Aloe Blacc are Emanon (3 albums)

DJ/Producer Exile and MC Aloe Blacc represent California and the raw underground sound of real hip hop. Aloe Blacc is also a dope soul singer, you can hear his voice on the opening to the new show How to Make it in America (people who did Entourage).



Video for track off The Waiting Room. Dope for real.

Aaaand one of my fave tracks from Imaginary Friends... Helped me feel light hearted about a really rough break-up... Hilarious stuff... Chorus is
"Girls I need 'em but they be misleading playing games with my mind and leaving my wrists bleeding, Girls, Women they deadly venom, but still we persist and insist to go up in 'em."

Thievery Corporation - The Richest Man in Babylon

Pretty damn cool album, all kinds of tracks with latin influence, dub, jazz, and what not... all with the characteristic refined downtempo/lounge style of Thievery Corporation.
