Bigger Than Hip Hop: A conversation with M1 of Dead Prez from J. Quin on Vimeo.
It's still bigger than Hip-Hop, some people say Deadprez is a racist group and my answer to that statement is that You not listening to what they are saying. these dudes always put me up on something new every time I listen to their interviews. Lets get free is a part of who I am, If you want to know what's happening with Deadprez it's all in front of you. Listen!

Teaser: Stones Throw Doc for National TV France



Peanut Butter Wolf opens the doors of Stones Throw label. Meeting with James Reitano, Dave Cooley, Om'Mas Keith from Sa-Ra, Frosty from Dublab. Also featuring Peanut Butter Wolf, Dam Funk and Mayer Hawthorne. By Sébastien Bauer & Lucas Blaya. come to think of it, I probably bought most albums released on Stones Throw. They respect and create good music, my only regret was when they came to Newcastle a few years ago for a festival I was unable to attend because I could not afford it, although I have seen J-rocc a few times, Madlib, Mf-Doom and Mayer Hawthorne . looking forward to Aloe Blacc in april and hopefully see Dam Funk, Peanut Butter Wolf in the near future.

BLACK THOUGHT NEEDS YOUR HELP:Collect Your Thoughts, a Black Thought Contest


Black Thought, Okayplayer, and  The Smoking Section present:
COLLECT YOUR THOUGHTS, the ULTIMATE BLACK THOUGHT COMPILATION CONTEST
Black Thought has been releasing recorded music since 1992 and has long since established himself as one of the most fierce and prolific emcees in history. In fact, give the man a hand.. no, seriously, give him a hand, he has lost track of how many features and solo joints (anything that did not appear on an album from The Roots) and needs your help…
The challenge to you, compile the most comprehensive list of Black Thought features and solo tracks for a chance to win one (or a combination of) the following prizes:
- tickets to a taping of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon with access to meet Black Thought and the rest of the band behind-the-scenes
- sit in on a studio session with Black Thought and the Money Making Jam Boys
- Tickets and backstage to the next Roots show in your area
- Autographed Roots swag (t-shirts, CDs, Vinly)
The contest starts today, January 7th, and runs through Friday, January 28th.  There are two requirements to be eligible to win. Once you feel like you have established the complete list of Black Thought features and solo, non-Roots joints, compile them in a Word or text doc in a numbered list (order does not matter). The trick is, you must also have mp3s (any digital format for iTunes is fine) of ALL the tracks on your list. Whoever submits the most comprehensive list will be deemed the winner but they must then send a ZIP/SIT/RAR file of all the mp3s on their list to win prizes or a new winner will be selected.
Email your submissions (lists only, no mp3) to collectyourthoughts@gmail.com
Here are a few to get you started:
This one is mine!lol!
