DJ MUGGS & ILL BILL are back… from the past! Hidden in a dusty basement and trapped on Betamax tape for the last 35 years, “Kill Devil Hills†has returned with a vengeance! Uncle Howie, Soul Assassins and MoreFrames present you with the most electrifying old school Saturday morning series that never was. Prepare to be hit with 4 all-new episodes, featuring new tracks from the upcoming DJ MUGGS vs ILL BILL record. “Kill Devil Hills†is an original retro saga on an epic scale that no one else could deliver! COMING SOON!
You know this isn’t EXACTLY new, but…I felt like putting it up because….well, I felt like it. I know I’ve put quite a few local artists up today, but it’s actually Judah‘s (you know, the guy with the Sundresses & Sandals song that I put up some time ago) that is the go-to for all DC area talent, up-and-coming or established.
Lord Finesse apparently decided to throw these classic pictures on his Facebook page, in them you can see a teenage Fat Joe, Big L, DJ Premier, GURU and more…classic hip-hop…
Now THIS is what I’ve been waiting for, damnit…the first single from W.A.R. (We Are Renegades) that will be released through his own W.A.R. Media & Duck Down Music. Produced by Diamond D.
Let me first say, aside from the fact it reminds me of a slightly retarded version of one of those Junkyard Dog action figures (I know I ain’t the only one who watched WWF back in the day), this actually would’ve fit more with the Deeper Than Rap album cover, in my opinion. He did say he liked collecting toys…wonder when where they’re gonna sell these?
This is a song off the upcoming Central Services EP, Forever Frozen In Television Time. It was recorded in early 2005 and was never released. The EP will be given away for free in conjunction with Camu Tao’s King Of Hearts, which drops August 3rd on Def Jux/Fat Possum. RIP Camu Tao.
This is from Illseed’s Rumors page, so…apparently, there is a producer names Wyldfyer who has produced for the likes of Jay-Z & Nas, to name a few. He is saying (or perhaps merely insinuating without distinct accusation) that J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League may have taken a beat he submitted to Rick Ross (who may not be void of guilt on this either) and created their own version of it. Quite frankly, I thought that this is what happens in hip-hop anyway? Here are some copied tweets (or messages, I dunno) that Illseed put up from Wyldfyer himself:
# By the way, yalls favorite HIP HOP producers have been hitting me all day like, “shyts MAAAAD similar”. I just put it out there. 10:57 PM Jul 6th
# @DONJULIO1 @theforce_ But I HOPE they “outdid” me. Shit, its like 4-5 of them and just ONE of me. That say something about ME! 10:56 PM Jul 6th

…which leads us to the evidence…take a listen to both and decide for yourself:
‘Maybach Music 3’:
Wyldfyer’s beat in question:
Coincidence? Maybe we’ll hear more about this soon…
Seems like all the top hip-hop artists are in Europe, right now…from NMC:
Marshall takes the main stage to sound check in preparation for tonight’s headlining gig at Frauenfeld Openair Festival. The performance will mark his first across the pond in over 5 years. Em will also be performing July 10th at Scotland’s T in the Park and July 11th at Dublin, Ireland’s Oxegen Festival.
