Song of the Week- Organized Konfusion “Stress”

Pharaohe Monch & Prince Po together as Organized Konfusion are a force. Stress: Extinction Agenda is easily, hands down one of my top albums of all time. Plain/Simple. Concept, flow, lyrics, street, smart.

Warning to record execs, wack emcee’s, and pay-to-play radio stations, lyrics include:

"Why do you choose to mimic these wack MC's?
Why do you choose to listen to R&B?
Why must you believe somethin is fat
Just because it's played on the radio, 20 times per day?"

North Carolina Amendment 1

I was hoping to be able to say something about North Carolina moving beyond their sordid past but alas they’ve not warranted it. So to the Tar Heel state I say you are a heel and not healing. I refuse to agree to disagree. If you were for Amendment 1, you are a horrible person and I despise you.

Front of the Crates- Tuesday Forecast

Well, here it is. Do with it what you like. I’ll be giving a listen before I buy. But the Big K.r.i.t. re-issue and Lazer Sword are promising. And the Detroit funk has got to be good.
