New Single from LEO37 - Icarus

Hey Readers,

I want to thank you for being so fly, firstly. Thank you!

Speaking of fly, Icarus is one of two brand new songs from LEO37, Toronto's worldly and ethereal emcee. The new single starts off with a sunny, funky jazz groove that sandwiches the second verse, backed by a bumping hip hop break provided by the live instrumentalists in The Worst Pop Band Ever. The song's lyrical and musical high is followed by an abrupt descent back into the main melody lead by more fat bass lines and mellow syncopated organ. This joint is a class act as it reads sort of like a sonnet and is themed after the ironic flight of one mythological Icarus, the young adventurist whose waxen wings melted when he flew to close to the sun.

Scoop both Icarus and Morning for free at LEO37's site.

I don't expect LEO37's wings to be melting anytime soon as he is about to embark on The Clipped Wings Tour which kicks off May 7th in Windsor at Phog Lounge with performances from LEO, Magnolius, Detroit's USM and Flow & Smooth.

Check out the Icarus promo vid:


And the original art ...


Don't miss LEO37 live in your backyard on tour, starting May 7 in Windsor.

Reflection Eternal WSG Street Justice, Danny Brown, Mobil & More April 25 @ The Crofoot

Reflection Eternal (Talib Kweli and DJ Hi-Tek) are at the forefront of a powerful new version of Hip Hop music. To affirm this, catch them on stage April 25th with Detroit’s Danny Brown, Street Justice and Mobil for performances to satisfy all tastes, whether you’re a fan of late 90s backpacker wit, hard hitting street styles next to a cool vibe.

As a preview to their new approach and second full length Revolutions Per Minute, Reflection Eternal dropped the late 2009 single Just Begun. The lyrics magnify current social issues that attest to how Hi-Tek and Kweli evolve as stylistic innovators since their first release in 2000. With verses from current street savvy heavyweights J.Cole and Jay Electronica along with Mos Def, Just Begun appeals to new, young listeners using familiar sounds like looped horn samples from James Brown’s King Heroin. The song is a sample of what I think will be an injection of pop music's appeal into the intricate dialogue that Kweli has developed over the years with fans of his many projects, like Black Star with Mos Def, or Madlib on their collaborative Liberation.

Street Justice, known for appealing to both street and boom-bap palates, are gearing up to drop their upcoming releases Follow The Drip & GO H.A.A.M!, while Danny Brown’s latest release The Hybrid is also attracting a new heads yet repels any backpacker Hip Hop stigma. Though Mobil’s releases are few, his laid back attitude will help you ease into the intense atmosphere of this lineup. Mobil has just returned from NY where he and Danny Brown rocked live shows with their wizardly friend, Count Macula.
Em: If you could have dinner with anyone, alive or dead, who would it be?
Mobil: Tesla, Basquiat, and Kim Kardashian.
Em: What would you ask them?
Mobil: I’d ask Basquiat about his TWA Airlines story and let Tesla chill. Me and Kim wouldn’t be talking much…

Mobil will be onstage with Reflection Eternal Sunday, April 25th at the Crofoot Ballroom in Pontiac, MI. Tickets are $20 in advance, doors at 8pm.

DJ Satta Don Dada - My Drink and My Two Step Mix

Another mid-week treat for ya!

Detroit's Satta Don Dada made a special grimey two step mix for you hip hop heads. Should satisfy stomachs hungry for wobble bass and distorted quotes from rappers like Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne and Mobb Deep, with the sweetest samples right in the middle. Listen for what he does to Eminem's vocal track. Man, this is one dirty mix. It makes minced meat outta popular rap.

Grab it for yourself, for free, and thank Satta Don Dada.

He'll be on the decks at Ashely's Pub in Ann Arbor every Thursday around midnight if you're down.
Click here for details on the event.

New Album + Download from The Great Mundane - Humdrum

Despite the artist's name and the album's title, Jeffrey Acciaioli's tracks are anything but boring.

Teleporting from Portland via Chicago via Farmington Hills (he's a Michigan native), TGM's tracks prove to be fun, yet weighted on this his first solo debut full length, which the producer/engineer/DJ dubs a "10 track LP of Sparkling Jazz Crunk Trunk Rattlers."

Download the first single from the Run Riot Records release: Tremor Dancer. The track (and much of the album) combines "minimal techno elements and that new wonky hip hop sound" that is turning heads and tilting ears. Get it right here!

Catch The Great Mundane live in Detroit April 28th as part of The Vantastic Teleportour with Aligning Minds (Silver Springs, Maryland), Kilowatts (Philadelphia), E.Spleece (Detroit), Madis One (Detroit) and Perilelle (Windsor).
RSVP via Fusicology!

Interview with Invincible + Dilla Dedication

Check out The Revival at The Fembassy as directed by Invincible! She'll be rockin a Detroit Music Showcase at SXSW (check out her Sledgehammer vid featured there last year) in March with Emergence Music, as well as holding it down at The Foundation with Ma Dukes this Tuesday at Elements Gallery.

You can also catch her via Detroit Summer February 17th at Oakland University and keep an ear to the ground for a new album from her (hopefully soon!) with Wajeed. Stoked for that one!

Props on a great interview. And great tracks!

No wonder. J Dilla's legacy is now stronger than ever. I have discovered that the more people find out about his contributions to Hip Hop musically, the more people's minds are changed about what Hip Hop is. It helps that his colleagues and contemporaries do not cease to impress listeners, having absorbed some part of the man's music that spoke to them, and injecting that into their own styles... and building up a higher standard for music-making in this age of the producer. I think it's sweet that artists still rock his beats, I plan to explore more of them and continue to play definitive local music. Help support a real movement towards musical health by clicking on the links. Ma Dukes is running www.J-Dilla.com so drop by.

Minced Meat and K-Fresh bring a retrospective of J Dilla.

Head to Shine On at TV Bar this Tuesday, February 10th for the most celebrated Hip Hop events to happen in Detroit. The best live DJ's, emcees, producers and a classic lineup. Maybe House Shoes will bring material from his latest project The King James Version.

And as a prelude to some of the music you may hear on Tuesday, Minced Meat broadcasts live once again this Sunday at 12AM on CJAM 91.5FM (www.cjam.ca). K-FRESH, the man behind the famed Renaissance Soul, is back with his immeasurable knowledge and taste and we're going to try to illustrate for you a catalogue of J Dilla's music. K-Fresh dedicated his website (click his name) to J Dilla's legacy and we're going to fill you in on some local musical history about him as best we chronologically can, the beginning to the present, the whole magilla. We'll talk about his many collabs, projects and releases, in the form of a tribute and recognition for the 3rd anniversary of the passing of this producer virtuoso, responsible for inspiring an entire generation of musicians and moving listeners.

Update! K-Fresh and I got together and put together a track list. Be prepared to learn something new about Dilla.

DID YOU KNOW: K-Fresh is responsible for providing Stones Throw Records' website with the complete chronological discography, production credits and collaborations of J Dilla's work. I couldn't ask for a better guest host to tell you about one of the most prolific artists of recent times.
