Paul Banks - Everybody On My Dick Like They Supposed To Be

New mixtape from Brit-Indie, post punk vocalist Paul Banks of Interpol fame... who unbeknownest to me makes beats.. and does so quite well.

Some really ill shit on this if you dig the more downtempo, fuzzed out, slightly Madlib'esque, blunted and oh so freely composed instrumental typa stuff.. I know I will partake.

Besides the wonky beat work, you'll also get a few collab's that Paul was able to snag up from names like EL-P, Talib Kweli, and Mike G (Odd Future).. It's over at Datpiff for free.99.. dig in babies.

Here's Ali's breakdown of the cut that he actually produced himself:

I’ve had the pleasure of being interviewed and featured in some of the most incredible publications but the most entertaining and interesting interviews Ive ever had was with the one and only Nardwuar. During our interview he gave me The original program to a Muhammad Ali exhibition fight in Vancouver and several records.

To assist writer Adam Mansbach with the new mixtape he's doin with J.Period to create some buzz for his new book, "Rage Is Back", Black Thought goes ahead and freestyles over Nas's classic cut, "NY State Of Mind" from his all-time classic record "Illmatic"..

In case you're not familiar with Mansbach, the man is a hell of a writer.. hell of a writer, and you should def. peep out his works. I know most folks these days know him from his hilarious "adult children's book" "Go The Fuck To Sleep", but some of his other works, most notably "Angry Black White Boy: A Novel", shouldn't go un-noticed.. and yeah, his new book, "Rage Is Back" dropped 5 days ago.. so be sure to grab that too.

The chorus cuts that Statik provides as well as the beat are killer.. real nice joint..

Single: Blu, R.A. The Rugged Man & Tristate - Thelonious King

Nature Sounds is still one of my fav. Indie labels and cuts like this are precisely why..

Getting together some of the finest emcees on their roster in Blu, R.A. The Rugged Man and Tristate (of Durag Dynasty) to dismantle a Bombay -produced track that is to say the least, stirring, you're given a hardcore gem that is "Thelonious King"...

Hol up, Dam-Funk just dropped a cassette that he gave out to close friends back in the 90s??

Ahhh man, pass that my way...

More info on "Tranquil Funk" below:

Recorded in 1994 in my bedroom, this is: “Tranquil Funk”; which was a 16 track cassette tape only given out 2 close friends & associates in my Pasadena, Ca. neighborhood, without any intentions of getting a ‘record deal’ or any of the sort. I was just doing what I love: Music.At this time in my life I was very young in the mind (via the ‘immature use’ of the ‘N’ word, in ‘some’ of these tracks & a word I NEVER will use in ‘my own personal music’ ever again), yet musically advanced amongst my peers. This ‘limited time only’ FREE DOWNLOAD is a snapshot in time, in relation 2 my story & origins within this music game.

News: Big Boi Reveals He Didn't Vote For Barack Obama

I guess it may surprise some, but Big Boi ain't no Democrat.. to the contrary, Sir Lucious Leftfoot is actually a Libertarian, and not only that, in this interview with HuffPost Live, the longtime ATL emcee divulged that he voted for Gary Johnson this past presidential election, not Barry Obama... Hmmm.. some may have a problem with that, personally, I think it shows what we've all known all along, Big Boi ain't no fool.. he's paying attention.

 While I will say that his political views definitely don't align with mine, and that he should def. take a further look into the Libertarian ethos and just what they really stand for *cough* they're closet Republicans *cough*, I'm happy he's an independent thinker and unafraid to state so.

Single: Joey Bada$$ - Unorthodox (prod. by DJ Premier) [Radio Rip]

Ahhhh man.. I was already a Joey Bada$$ fan, but this pretty much cements his status to me.. anytime you get this man Premo to co-sign you, you're well on ya way, and old heads with staunch notions for the old school will accept you..

On a sidenote, I guess that Mountain Dew is gettin in the friggin' music game.. make of that what you will.. In any case, this is the Radio Rip of "Unorthodox"; Joey's new track, that features classic Premo production...

"I've done a lot of things in my life. Music has done things for me I never imagined, but performing in front of 1,300 kids in Italy... where I'm from? Where my father is from? It was the most beautiful experience of my life. I felt my father with me. They chanted my name: "Vin-Cen-Zo, Vin-Cen-Zo." I cried onstage for the first time in my life. For the first time in my life, I felt like I did my father proud. I can retire now. It's been a good run. Thanks."
