It ain't over mothafucker.
I was digging around for something and found Bulworth just staring at me. Regarding the movie, it sure was dumb from what I remember. Warren Beatty was some sort of politician that suffered some sort of mid-life crisis and decided he'd get in tough with his inner-urban blackness. It tried to tackle race issues, but it just wasn't good enough to keep me too interested. Also, starring Halle Berry, she's pretty.
It's a decent soundtrack and if you can find it, buy it for the simple fact that the liners feature a picture of Beatty with Cappadonna, RZA, Pras and Mack 10 in front of the American flag. Surreal.
1) Zoom - Dr. Dre and LL Cool J - Dre got the high pitched squeal in there. I was never a big fan of this song and it was about 4 years after I listened to anything new from LL. It's an okay song and a weird combination.
2) Ghetto Supastar - Pras feat. ODB and Mya - This is a great song (you know that) and fooled me into buying Pras' solo LP. I miss ODB and for those of you youg kids, it has that cute girl from Dancing With the Stars.
3) How Come - Canibus and Youssou N' Dour - This is around the time when I still enjoyed me some Wyclef. I like this song.
4) Bulworth - Method Man, KRS, Prodigy and Kam - Let's see what happens if we throw a bunch of rappers in a hat and pick four. That being said, this is a nice track produced by DJ Muggs.
5) Holiday/12 Scanner - Witchdoctor - I never got into Witchdoctor and I'm not a huge fan of this song. It's listenable, but not my kind of song.
6) The Chase - RZA - A nice song also produced by RZA. It features a dope piano loop and some hectic/dope verses. Although, he did seem to cut his verses at least one short, as the last 2 minutes or so are just the beat.
7) Eve of Destruction - Eve - This beat is nice and has been used before, but I can't place it right now. It's driving me nuts, oh, I think on that Louis Logic/JJ Brown LP. I think it's an old song (possibly), but it's not listed in the liners. The song's okay, I'm not an Eve fan, so, yeah.
8) Maniac in the Brainiac - Mack 10 and Ice Cube - This is an okay song, not great, but not bad. I guess Cube is the brainiac and Mack 10 is the maniac, according to the chorus.
9) Freak out - Nutta Butta feat. Anonymous - I'm sure someone out there knows who these 2 are, but I don't remember them. It samples the Le Chic (is that right) song and is produced by Teddy Riley. Not my style.
10) Joints and Jams - Black Eyed Peas - The Peas before Fergie. I liked this song and ended up buying their debut LP, but didn't listen to it much.
11) Run - Cappadonna - RZA produced and decent. I'm not a huge Cappadonna fan, but this song predates the Ghostface song from The Pretty Toney LP, which has a similar chorus.
12) Lunatics in the Grass - B Real - This is a pretty good song. It's basically a Cypress song, but there's some dude named Jacken on here.
13) Kill Em Live - Public Enemy - This is okay. I wasn't really checking for PE around the time this came out.
14) Bitches are Hustlers Too - D-Fyne - Don't remember this chick and this song isn't that good.

5x5 Day Two: Has-Lo's Five Favorite RZA Beats
For the last week I've found myself listening to one of the greatest feats of production from perhaps my favorite producer of all times: The Rza. A lot of discussions have been had about the Wu clan and their respective albums. There's a general consensus about which are the greatest. It's a little harder to narrow the discussion down to a handful of classics. So the question is...what are your top 5 Rza productions of all time? They could be from Wu-Tang group or solos, or outside Rza productions. If he did it and you think it's great...let it be known.
Here are mine (in no order):
1. Gza - Duel Of The Iron Mic
2. Raekwon - Glaciers Of Ice
3. Method Man - P.L.O Style
4. Raekwon - Heaven & Hell
5.Ol Dirty Bastard - Cuttin' Heads
Of course...this list changes from day to day so, take it as a discussion point and not the pitch black law.
Your turn!

Bobby Digital and The Damaja
"Now what do they have to do with each other?", well absolutely nothing and I was planning a whole different post with whole albums etc, just to find out after I finished; that I couldn’t upload them, so I have to leave you with the few tracks I uploaded..
First is the 1991 Tommy Boy released "Ooh I love You Rakeem" EP (well most people refer to it as EP, though there are only 3 different tracks on it, i wonder what GO14 says ;) ) from RZA then still known as Prince Rakeem, just after its release he would go to jail and after that he would go on and bless us with the Wu, who I feel don’t need any further descriptions...
1."Ooh We Love You Rakeem (Baggin' Ladies Mix)"
2."Ooh We Love You Rakeem (Baggin' Ladies Instrumental)"
3."Deadly Venoms (Vocals Up)"
4."Sexcapades (DMD Mix)"
5."Sexcapades (Wutang Mix)"
6."Sexcapades (DMD Radio Mix)"
7."Sexcapades (DMD Instrumental)"

Second is the promo only pressing of Jeru The Damajas „East New York Stalks“ released after the prophet left the Gangstarr Foundation featuring the Gangstarr diss track “Friend or Foe” main mix also known as “Friends”. Premier had produced his entire debut album “The Sun Rises In The East” and his second release “Wrath of the Math” after this they parted ways, some say due to financial disagreements but I remember also hearing that premier had something going on with Jerus sister or something like that well any way, here it is.
