Melange: III

My head hurts.

Once again, we present Melange, our weekly tribute to Saturday morning hangovers. The modus operandi is as follows: two videos, two great mixes and two older songs that I really dig. Keep it simple, stupid.


Cee-Lo Green, Field Mobb & T.I- All I know
Beirut- Scenic World

Drippin' Away From Me

An other song from Kanye's album just got leaked. It was also one of my favorite from the Runaway short film. Crazy beat. Still has the mixtape TAGS in it but whatever it will keep you steady until the real release. Raekwon's verse is too good

Kanye West ft. Kid Cudi & Raekwon - Gorgeous (NO TAGS VERSION, thx to Earmilk for this one)
Cee Lo Green - Fool For You Ft. Philip Bailey

As a bonus here's an other track off Cee-Lo's new album named "The Lady Killer". Laid back music my friends.

enjoy

Laid Back Sunday #6

And another one...

Beautiful day here in Montreal, sun is out and my girl is SMOKIN' ! Once again delivering some "off the radar" goodies. As you probably get to know my posts ; I don't necessarily share the latest stuff. I post the music that I love but also try to find the music that you've never heard before. That's probably the hiphop "diggin' the crates" phenomenon that's been stuck in my head for years. Always on the look out for that good beat.

Jhi Ali - Alabama (Feat. Cooley Da Dude & Big P.O.P.E
A couple months ago, my dear colleague MDMAwesome introduced you to the PRR/PRG(Paper Route Records/Gangstaz). The song he shared with you guys was off a legendary mixtape that was produced at the time by Diplo and Benzi. All the tracks are pure fire, Ive been bumpin' this shit for quite some time and still not tired of hearing these songs. DOPE

CunninLynguists - Caved In feat. Cee-Lo Green
Here I am once again posting a CunninLynguists track. I could possibly not imagine how someone could hate on this group ; they are way too good. Kno is one of the best hiphop producers there is out there, always been producing the freshest beats for them. Actually, you should definitely check-out his album Death Is Silent. Song here is featuring Cee-Lo and is off "A Piece Of Strange" album. This track will evacuate the stress out of your body in no time. Guaranteed.

Trick Daddy feat. Cee-Lo & Ludacris - Sugar (Justus A + B by Luminfire)
Last off ; my sugaaaaar baby. Remix/Mashup (AAAAAAAHHHH Shit, I've said the M word) done by the guys at Ants in my Trance. No description needed, its the beeezzneezz. Fits the Sunday mood perfectly.

In the mean time, get your groove on people. Shake that ass


See you next time sombreros mustachios

Laid Back Sunday #4

Credits goes to Pierre Doucin for the artwork

Back on my biznizz, introducing edition number 4 of this wonderful series. Hopefully you'll dig today's post, I personally think there's some good gems here. Let's do this.

Sol - So Damn High
1st off with the youngster of the bunch. This guy named Sol is only 21 years old but you should absolutely not underestimate his emcee skills. Considering his young age he has been producing a shitload of material. You can clearly hear the difference between his most recent EP called Dear Friends Vol. II and Vol I which can only mean he's progressing very quickly. Keep an eye out for this dude, an upcoming talent for sure. He recently released an LP called The Ride, didn't have the chance to give it a listen yet but will sure do and you should too. I'm so damn high

Busta Rhymes x J Dilla - Takin What's Mine
We've been talking, talking & talking again & again about Mick Boogie. There might be a reason to all of that bablin'. This dude is too sick at remixing songs. The track featured here is off a legendary mixtape he released a couple years back. He took some classic and some underground J.Dilla(R.I.P) beats and decided to mix the shit out of it with Busta Rhymes over it. The result = priceless. Check it out, the mixtape is called DILLAGENCE. Plus, its "legally" free to download. Ha !

MAYDAY - Groundhog Day (feat. Cee-lo, Mack Maine & Ghostwridah) (Movers n' Shakers remix)
Last but not least, a remix by Movers n' Shakers of a 2008 single that was originally produced by MAYDAY. It features our beloved Cee-lo, Mack Maine (Young Money) and Ghostwridah. Very cool track, gets you quite pumped.

see you next time

I'm on the top floor/no neighbors

Rain and clouds on a Saturday afternoon? What a great excuse for a quick little post. You know how we roll on weekends. Laziness uber alles.

Mandrill- Children of the Sun

Great but strange funk tune. It starts off on a cosmic medieval vibe, then kickstarts the funk when you least expect it. Fast forward to 3:16 for a nice little surprise. Anyone remember those horns?

Broadcast- Black Cat

An indie tune from 2006 that features that great sound that my radio and stereo make when I'm about to receive a call. Cell phone feedback noise for the win.

Cee-Lo Green- Fuck You

Yes, it's been posted a million times so far. Cee-Lo, for those not in the know, is Goodie Mob's crooner extraordinaire, Gnarls Barkley's meal ticket and one hell of a unique and talented MC. This cut is off of his upcoming album, The Ladykiller. I try to avoid posting songs that've been overblogged, but there was something about this one that I couldn't resist. Soulful as hell.

Big Nuz- Wawungenenjani

A bit of South African Kwaito to get your evening started.


See you on the flipside.
