Real Talk Tuesdays:  D'Angelo

DateTuesday, September 20, 2011 at 8:56AM

D'Angelo has only released two full length LPs in his 16 year career - but those are two of the dopest albums in neo-soul history.  His most recent effort, James River, has already been 10 years in the making (with no scheduled release date as of yet).  D'Angelo's personal and legal troubles along with the schedules of his collaboraters (including ?uestlove) have made things drag along slowly.  Let's hope he returns soon and in top form.  Watch him killin "Brown Sugar" (the sexiest song about weed EVER) on Later with Jools Holland.

Way Gone Wednesdays: Pharoahe Monch

DateWednesday, March 16, 2011 at 9:15AM

Yep, he made the blog two days in a row.  Just to show that I'm not doggin' Pharoahe Monch, here's his new single, which qualifies as Way Gone.   It kicks off with the worlds most underrated/underappreciated MC, Jean Grae, then you'll hear Monch completely DESTROY the track before letting lightweight Royce da 5'9" bring up the rear in disappointing fashion.
