WU MASSACRE
Method Man, Ghostface & Raekwon - Wu-Massacre. 30. mars 2010. (29.mars på platekompaniet!)
Hvis du ikke klarer å vente kan du sjekke ut mixtapen DJ Mathematics & Def Jam Present - Meth Ghost Rae: Avenging Eagles (via nahright).
Utdrag fra et Raekwon intervju i Entertainment Weekly:
Moving on to this album you’re doing with Meth and Ghost, Wu-Massacre, when did you start working on that?
"I’d say probably four or five months ago. We just wanted to make another album that really represents our brand, which is the W. When you think of Wu-Tang, we’ve been in the business for damn near almost, what, 17 years? We just want to make sure that people still know that we didn’t go nowhere — musically, passionately about hip-hop. When you get records like this, it helps keep the W flag up high. You know what I mean? Like the American flag. We gotta take care of that flag."Ghostface i et intervju med RapRadar:
"We not a group. We already in Wu-Tang. So it’s not like we trying to start a group. We don’t need that."Wu-Tang Clan. nuff said.

A-Laget - Nokke Feita 2
mixtape: A-Laget - Nokke Feita 2 (alt. dl)
Pete'n og Vågard + Girson. Hip hop. Vestkysten. Bergen. G-Huset. Sjekk intervju med A-Laget, live klippet fra scenen (+ Jesse Jones) fra by:larm og fristilen de gjorde på NRS.
"A-laget lager musikk bare fordi de ikke har noe bedre å gjøre. Vågard og Pete'n er i sin egen sone, der damer utvilsomt er det beste i verden, ved siden av bass, venner og virkelighetsflukt. Heldigvis. Tekstene er ganske grove. De er liksom Bjørn Hellfuck, hvis Bjørn Hellfuck var elegant, kul og sexy."

I Wish It Would Rain
Mayer Hawthorne; fresh kis som rocka rosa sokka, eks-hip hop dj, spiller alle instrumenter på albumet sitt, Stones Throw og er booka til Bergenfest. I Wish It Would Rain er den tredje låta med video fra albumet A Strange Arrangement (du finner det også på spotify), sjekk også video til Green Eyed Love og den første hiten til Hawthorne, Just Ain't Gonna Work Out.
Anbefales!
Ghostface om Hawthorne til NY Times:
“He’s crazy. His music is fire. He got a lot of soul, a lot of Motown soul. The production and how he sings, it sounds like he could’ve been like Smokey Robinson. You would think he was a black guy, to have the soul that he’s bringing to the table like that, but to find out no, it’s even more incredible.”http://www.stonesthrow.com/mayerhawthorne

Jamaican dancehall ban?
WorldFocus reports on Jamaicas Broadcasting Commission ban on dancehall music and images of daggering on radio and tv.
"Grace Hamilton, known as Spice, is one of Jamaica’s most prominent Dancehall artists. She and Vybz Kartel came under attack for their duet “Rampin’ Shop.” Not all of Spice’s songs are so sexually graphic. In the video below, Spice talks (and sings) about growing up in Jamaica’s ghettos.!"
Mer daggering - No daggerin’ on Jamaican TV and on Worldfocus.
"Music will always be an easy scape goat
....it's a lot easier than dealing with the actual socio economic issues plaguing society that are causing the actual problems that need to be addressed and corrected. Requires less money, less commitment, less in general. here it is. Musical content in the issue so let's start impose censory bans and all teenage prenancy rates will decline, all crime rates will decline, all moral corruption in general will be abolished yadda yadda yadda - they know better but it's to target music than actually deal with the issues.
The artists speaking on what is going on in their community, who have come up through their art should now be penalized and hindered futher because they speak on what is going on around them.
Completely logical no? Smh"

Triumph (director's commentary)
Wu-Tang Clan - Triumph (1997) fra albumet Wu-Tang Forever (spotify).
To give you a taste of his resume, we selected six of our favorite Brett Ratner-directed videos—including bangers from Wu-Tang, D’Angelo, and Public Enemy—and asked the man himself to give a little commentary about how each classic came together. Believe us, the man’s got stories for days...
Read more: http://www.complex.com
DIRECTOR’S COMMENTARY:
“It was the first million dollar rap video. When Steve Rifkind asked me, I said, ‘Are you sure about this record? There’s no chorus!’ He says “Trust me, its gonna be the biggest record of the year. Only Wu-Tang could pull this off.’ So, I set up the video—Joseph Kahn was my cinematographer. I hear that they want eleven Suburbans—they each want their own. They each also want $50,000 worth of gear, and they told me all their designers. So first day, these guys are walking in one at a time, and each guy walks into the dressing room, and walks out with plastic bags filled with all the clothes. I called Steve like, ‘They’re stealing all the clothes!’ He’s like, ‘Don’t worry, let them have it.’”
“It’s a five day shoot, and it’s crazy. The greatest fuckin’ experience, they’re eating mushrooms the whole time. Ol’ Dirty never shows up. I was like, Oh my god, this is fucking insane! The most fun I ever had. After shooting ends, they all leave to go on tour in Europe, but Ghost never would travel, because he had diabetes. So he checks into a hotel, and they said, ‘Yo Ghost, you watch Brett, and watch over that edit, man. White devil could fuck it up!” So, we’re in the edit room, and we call the group on speakerphone. And it’s the funniest thing, this is embedded in my memory. They’re all on the phone like, ‘White muthafuckin’ devil, man, tryin’ to rob us motherfucker!’ And Ghost is looking at me while on speakerphone, just winking at me like, I love you man! [laughs].”
“So three days into the edit, I get a call that Ghost had had been kicked out of like eleven hotels, and I’m like, ‘Why were you kicked out?’ He’s like, ‘I don’t know man, I got fucked up, and I just start breaking shit. Can you come get me? I got no place to stay.’ So I let him stay at my house. Suddenly my phone rings, and it’s Steve Rifkind, ‘Whats going on?’ I go, ‘Nothing, I’m just bringing Ghost over my house ’cause he got kicked out of the hotel.’ Then there’s silence on the other end of the phone. I say, ‘Whats wrong?’ He goes, ‘I gotta call you back.’ Five days later, he calls me up and goes, ‘Are you okay? Oh my God, you scared the shit outta me, man. How can you let this guy stay at your house? I don’t even let these guys know where I live!’ I go, ‘What do you mean? He’s the nicest guy in the world.’ He goes, ‘You don’t know what Ghostface has? He hallucinates, he hears voices like kill your mom, kill your mom. He has to be medicated because he has homicidal thoughts.’ So a month goes by, and I would edit all day, and Ghost would just chill at my house until we finished. A month later, I’m with my girlfriend in the backyard, and the cat starts going fucking crazy and starts digging into the dirt. We dig up a bucket of fried chicken. Ghost buried a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken in the backyard. How fuckin’ freaky is that?”
