Let's throw back to 2 years ago when I thought I had blogged this song (but maybe I didn't?). Caught Lizzo on the Red Bull Sound Select tour last night. Amazing. She's a star. Dig it.
A true innovator, Afrika Bambaataa gonna make you move this morning. Get on up y'all, it's 1986.
The Meters' classic "Cissy Strut" was sampled by everyone from N.W.A., A Tribe Called Quest and even Master P. Dig this cut and don't forget to wiggle.
If you're not down with Donovan I'm not sure we can be friends. Dig.
In honor of the release of Straight Outta Compton let's review one of the lesser celebrated tracks on that album, 8 Ball. Neither Eazy or Dre wrote their own verses on this record (Ice Cube did the lion's share of the work) - truth is, Eazy wasn't a blessed MC - can't imagine how much time they spent just to get these verses "passable". Still, there was something so cool about the whole damn thing.
