One of the most consistent independent Hip Hop groups of the decade, Kentucky trio CunninLynguists re-release their critically acclaimed
sophomore album SouthernUnderground as a two disc deluxe edition. The group, made up of Deacon The Villain, Natti and Kno, aim to
make music that reminds listeners why they like Hip Hop in the first place. Backed with quality beats and rhymes, gritty sounds, witty lyrics
and low ends that jump out the trunk like Rajon Rondo, the ‘Lynguists recapture the soul in southern Hip Hop, with what Spin Magazine
calls “Outkast’s tragicomic poignancy”.
SouthernUnderground, originally released independently in 2003, includes features from Masta Ace, Supastition and Tonedeff. Additional
production from RJD2 and Domingo, goes hand-in-hand with beats from the main producer Kno, who was once described as “one of the
top loop-miners east of the Mississippi” by URB Magazine. Disc 2 contains sixteen previously unreleased tracks that are made up of three
remixes, twelve instrumentals and one song taken from a 2002 vinyl only compilation called Boom Bap For Neanderthals.
The SouthernUnderground deluxe edition comes out a month after the groups newest effort “Strange Journey Volume 2” is dropped in
early November. A 30-city US tour kicks off in November that will keep the group on the road until Christmas in support of both projects.

After catching wreck on dozens of 45-only (aka donuts)
Hip-Hop sets worldwide, Peanut Butter Wolf has gotten
together with the good folks at Five Day Weekend to put
together this insane collection of 10 Rap 45’s packaged in a
beautiful heavy-weight collector’s tin. The 20 classic Hip Hop
cuts, personally hand picked by PBW and taken from such
iconic labels as Enjoy, Sleeping Bag, Fresh, Cold Chillin’,
Strong City and many more are guaranteed to not only put a
smile on the face of any avid Old School Hip Hop fan, but also
provide a great introduction to the golden era for any Rap fans
of the new millennium.
“This project is such a great honor for me to be involved with.
This is one of the crowning moments of my music career,
seriously. As a kid growing up in San Jose, CA when all this
stuff was coming out, I was hooked and half a lifetime later I
still am. I can only imagine what these songs sound like to a
teenager today hearing them for the first time, just as they
probably wonder what it was like for someone like me to have
heard them for the first time back when it was all happening.
I've also always wondered what it was like to grow up in
one of the five boroughs in Hip Hop's infancy in the 80s.
These songs were the closest I got to knowing.”
— Peanut Butter Wolf

Mr. Chop, the multi-talented producer, engineer, and
guitar-reared multi-instrumentalist behind a host of releases
on Now-Again and Jazzman Records, couldn’t have foretold
that the legendary rapper MF Doom would call him “the illest
to grace the boards” after tapping into his otherworldly skills
as co-producer/co-writer on a series of tracks on the recently
released Born Like This album on Lex Records. Nor could he
have foretold that Doom’s praise would lead to an offer to
rework psych funk, jazz and rock covers of producer Pete
Rock’s greatest beats.
Nor could he have called that Pete Rock’s long time collaborator,
CL Smooth, upon hearing the versions of “T.R.O.Y.” and
“Straighten It Out” would beg to record an album with him.
His is a unique take and has lead to an album that “the heads”
will recognize by, say, the Tom Scott sax-line Pete Rock
poached for “T.R.O.Y.,” or a host of other sample-based calls
and response that Chop has deconstructed into their
component parts and reassembled again. But his is an album
that will appeal to music lovers, regardless of their musical
leaning, as a master-class in fuzzy, funky grooves.

Before materializing as an official group, the Natural
Elements were originally conceived as a group of solo
artists brought together in 1993 under the tutelage of
producer Charlemagne. This initial grouping included
members Mr. Voodoo and L-Swift along with KA,
G-Blass, Howie Smalls and the InTimidator. By 1995
the unit had morphed into a straight up group
including the newly-added A-Butta.
When the Natural Elements line up solidified A-Butta,
L-Swift and Mr. Voodoo dropped sizzling singles like
“Live It Up” and “Bust Mine”. 12”s, Mixtapes,
appearance on the “Stretch and Bobbito Show” and
the like made waves and built a strong fan base. The
trio’s countless appearances on the NYC freestyle
and mixtape circuits culminated with a record deal on
the Tommy Boy Black sub-label and the release of
the single “2 Tons” in 1999. And that’s where the
story takes a wrong turn. ‘Issues’ between the group
and the label exploded and expanded with the end

“The Devil Smokes Dime Bags” was recorded by Oktober Zero in complete solitude to
avoid outside influence of the typical underground ‘16-bar boom-bap’ rap, and the
‘hustler-with-a-heart’ commercial vibe as well. The album has an aggressive attitude
combined with a sedated swagger, which explains the album title.
Oktober Zero is no stranger to the game having been a member of House Of Repz for
over a decade. But laying down these tracks in seclusion allowed him to rediscover and
refined his lyrical ability. He takes a loose, swaggarish approach on tracks like
“Chittybang” and “Fuc Musick”, but manifests his lyrical conceptuality on songs like
“Kicks!” and “Spoke to da O.G.” Oktober pushes the limit on the ominous piece called
“H8 In Ya Blood” where he spits in the flow, style, and voice of some of our much missed
deceased rappers. All this plus topics such as dice games (”C-Low Cash”), rough sex
with women (”Muchacha”), weed-smoking (”420 Church St.”), and being a
post-apocalyptic gangster (”Future Thug”), Oktober Zero and Kings Link Recordz invite
you to sit down and taste some of the best on “The Devil Smokes Dime Bags”.

Earthology is the long awaited follow up to The Whitefield Brothers
cult-classic In The Raw. While In The Raw’s hypnotic, defiantly psychedelic
funk music was grounded in the great musical traditions of both America
and Africa, Earthology finds the Brothers infusing their funk (or, as the
Brothers prefer it, “raw soul”) with musical traditions that span the globe.
To achieve the Earthology’s unique sound, the Brothers employed an array
of instruments and put in a dizzying amount of research: traveling the
world, joining different bands and ethnic performing ensembles, amassing
and absorbing field recordings, trawling used record bins for lost examples
of global psychedelic-fusion, over a period spanning some fifteen years.
Like In The Raw, Earthology is grounded by a “raw soul” band’s building
blocks: drums, guitar, bass, keys and horns, but it is augmented by such
exotic instruments as gongs and flutes from Asia, xylophones and string
instruments from Africa and Central American percussion instruments.
The use of African polyrhythms now seems commonplace on a funk or
psych album; Arabic rhythmical structures, African pentatonic scales and
Oriental modes do not. The Whitefield Brothers, and a multitude of guest
ranging from vocalists Edan, Mr. Lif, Bajka, Percee P and MED to
musicians from Antibalas, El Michels Affair, Quantic and the Dap-Kings, set
these elements in a modern context and, over the course of thirteen dense
tracks, blend them with the fierce funk their fans have grown to love.

Queensbridge heavyweight TaJuan Perry, better known as Big Noyd, has worked with 50
Cent, Cormega, Rakim and is off course a member of the tight-knit Mobb Deep family.
Noyd’s role in the Mobb Deep camp goes all the way back to his debut on “Stomp ‘Em
Out” from Mobb Deep’s 1993 debut Juvenile Hell, but it was on The Infamous album that
Big Rapper Noyd attracted wider attention. On the song “Give Up The Goods (Just Step)”
he started the second verse with the line “Yo, it’s the r-a-double-p-e-r n-o-y-d, n*gg*s
can’t f*ck with me!” He has later stated that he received his first contract (for $300,000)
because of that line. Noyd continued to make show stopping appearances on nearly every
following Mobb Deep album along with numerous tours, countless guest shots and string
of solo releases all his own. He has cemented himself as one of New York’s most
consistent MCs. Big Noyd kicks off 2010 with the all new Queens Chronicle. It’s a new
year, but this is the gritty and real Queensbridge sound that fans worldwide fiend for.

Reef The Lost Cauze is a Philadelphia mic-slayer on a mission. In 2004 Reef was quoted as
saying “This album is me at the top of my game.” Boastful? Perhaps. But five years (and two
more full lengths later) it’s clear Reef was speaking truth about Feast Or Famine.
Reef first made a name for himself with the 2003’s Invisible Empire and then with his
Philadelphia crew, the JuJu Mob, on their critically acclaimed Black Candles LP. In addition to
his reputation on the MC battle circuit he’s a member of the Hip Hop supergroup / collective
Army of the Pharaohs.
Feast Or Famine has some featured rappers and producers such as Sean Price who
appearances on “Fair One” (with production from DJ Mighty Mi) as well as fellow JuJu Mob
members Charon Don (on “I’m Rich”) and Chief Kamachi (on “Already Dead”). But the biggest
feature “Feast Or Famine” is Reef’s creative growth and his formidable lyrical abilities.

as a master class for those entranced by the funky,
heavy psychedelic wonders of the Tropicalia
movement and all that it spawned. But as compiler Joel
Stones writes in his liner notes: “You won’t find Os
Mutantes or their maestro Rogerio Duprat on this
compilation. There is a reason that the records
contained here have never been reissued. Even though
you will recognize some of the labels contained here…
believe me when I write this: some of the rarest, and

came out as promo-only 7” records on these labels.”
Each song contained on this album has never been

possible and remastered for near-perfect sound quality.

Following the success of the recently released Psych
Funk 101, Brasilian Guitar, Fuzz Bananas should serve
as a master class for those entranced by the funky,
heavy psychedelic wonders of the Tropicalia
movement and all that it spawned. But as compiler Joel
Stones writes in his liner notes: “You won’t find Os
Mutantes or their maestro Rogerio Duprat on this
compilation. There is a reason that the records
contained here have never been reissued. Even though
you will recognize some of the labels contained here…
believe me when I write this: some of the rarest, and
best, examples of fuzzy, funky Brazilian psychedelia
came out as promo-only 7” records on these labels.”
Each song contained on this album has never been
reissued, and has been restored from the best source
possible and remastered for near-perfect sound quality.
The giant 24 page full color booklet contains a wealth of
imagery and detailed annotation and liner notes in
both English and Portuguese.

Although he’s known primarily for the crossover hit “Just a Friend,”
to categorize Biz Markie’s career on the basis of that song would be
wholly unjust. Diabolical: The Biz’s Greatest Hits sets the record
straight. As a member of the stylistically diverse Juice Crew, the
formidable clique that included Big Daddy Kane, Roxanne Shante
and Kool G. Rap, Biz Markie’s clown prince character more than
held his own. Biz Markie’s manic energy and unbridled persona
paved the way for distinctive MCs like Ol’ Dirty Bastard and Busta
Rhymes. The Biz’s deft beatboxing skills, humorous storytelling,
and freestyle finesse are all clear on undisputed classics like
“Nobody Beats the Biz”, “Vapors”, and “Make the Music with Your
Mouth, Biz.” The package also includes never before seen photog-
raphy by George Dubose. This fun and funky career retrospective
succeeds in giving credit where it is due and truely proves to be the
“Ultimate Diabolical”. Don’t sleep, after all, the Biz never does...
Includes the enduring classic “Just A Friend”
