My friend Inie, one half of the fierce DJ combo, Hipsters Don’t Dance, gave me some tracks by Da Grin, P-Square and Terry G – three amazing Nigerians who have been blowing my mind.
They are all too musically diverse to be put together by anything other than their nationality. It’s all slightly generic too but that doesn’t stop it being all ridiculously good.
This is my favourite track
TERRY G – FREE MADNESS
Here’s another
Produced by Mark “The 45 King” and sampled heavily by the KLF this track is perfect. The sleeve looks great too.
I’m feeling so sorry for myself today I can’t do ANYTHING nevermind clean my flat. High quality bitch rap like this provides some comfort.
Those Two Sisters were OK but this is the real deal. One of the best battle records ever. I know it from Street Sounds Vol 8.
Bring it on.
SPARKY D VS THE PLAYGIRLS – THE BATTLE
BTW Sparky D’s back after a 20 year break from entertainment as a christian rapper.
I seduce girls singing the chorus to that song – no lie.
Here’s the remix
DJ NEPHETS – OOUCHIE BANG
DJ Assault came round my house on Saturday. I cooked him chicken soup – I don’t think he liked it. I think he’ll enjoy the party I’m putting on for him on Saturday more. The line up is pretty wow.
Here are some tracks to get us into a party mood.
DONAE’O – MY PHILOSOPHY (BOUNCE) – MIAMI BASS MIX
I’ve got Anquette, Disco Rick and Luke on loop – Miami madness in my mind. Enjoy DJ Laz – he’s been making bass for decades.
Beatmaster Clay D, the Miami bass producer of the original I seen your boyfriend, has a message for all the young single women. There’s a lesson for us all here.
If I wasn’t so busy offending people Larry David style I’d try to be like Ice T. I think my girlfriend would rather be Coco than Cheryl.
This is perfect.
Better than both J’s Pizza on West End Lane and J Date is J-Zone’s Ign’ant mixtape from 2003. This mish mash of domestic volence, robbery and sexism gives me a hard on.
I got it in 2003 and it’s taken this long to get my head round it. Both Rory P and Michael O’N will love this – it could be the best mixtape ever. It’s full of gangsta tales about purse snatching, splitting bums, crack dealing and keeping dead skeezers in freezer all mixed up perfectly for the kids – it’s deep. Happy valentines.

I’ve posted this video before but it’s so good I’m doing it again. This time here’s the mp3 too although Tracy performs it far better in the film than on record.
CHRIS “THE GLOVE” TAYLOR FT ICE T – RECKLESS
I don’t know much about The Glove but seems pretty amazing. Here he is with Egyptian Lover, who is also wearing a glove, teaching you suckers how to DJ.
This track takes 40 seconds to start but when it does it’s worth it. I wish I had it on vinyl because I can imagine it would sound so sweet with the pitch wacked up played fast.
Ed DMX once rapped it to me a few winters back at a 7 Year Glitch night. He went ‘my first taste of Miami bass came when I was on tour in ‘84′ – totally wrong.
Alex Macpherson wrote a great piece about Cassie on the Guardian music blog. I agree with everything he says – Cassie’s brilliant.
This track has a freestyle sound!
Girls make me lots of cake these days but I don’t think I’ve got any of this pie.
AMG – JIGGABLE PIE
BONUS ULTRA LO-FI TRACK
Pimp C, RIP, had some interesting talents…
UGK – I’M SO BAD
