“A full steezie is a bitch that will suck your dick in front of your peoples. She doesn’t really care, she’ll suck your dick in front of everybody. She’ll suck all your niggas dicks…that’s basically my everyday plan. I find a new full steezie…I’m being honest with you, ‘cause I know this ain’t getting to New York, so…You know, I piss on bitches. [laughter] It’s nothing. I love full steezies. And even I like the full steezies that won’t suck everyone else’s dick, but they’ll suck your dick in front of your man. I like those, too. I’m very uncivilized. Then you got the ones that’ll suck your dick behind closed doors, all day every day. Those are cool, too. It’s all full steezies, but there’s different ways of being full steezie. That’s my everyday life. I discover a new full steezie every other day. And I like to smoke a lot of marijuana. You got marijuana?” (more…)
This reminds me that I need to type out the interview I did with these sick fucks. Taken from the superb 2012: The New Beginning LP, which is available for download here and on CD here.
The I Dot U Dot just blessed me with some tracks from his vaults to share with the Unkut regulars, with a quick description of four of his favorites: (more…)
A case could be made for Buckwild being the most sophisticated remix scientist in hip-hop. He has a knack for being able to transform a good song into something incredible, as well as the ability to completely change the feel of a track without losing the essence of the original. Buckwild’s ‘Remix #1′ of ‘Life’s A Bitch’ flips the smoothed-out album version into an eerie vision of paranoia, while his interpretation ‘Daaam!’ twists a rowdy party starter into a smoked-out head nodder, while his version of ‘Rock On’ is nothing short of genius.

Grand Daddy I.U. dropped a superb album on Cold Chillin’ back in 1990, spawning the popular ‘Something New’, ‘This Is A Recording’ and ‘Sugar Free’. He also made a stand-out appearance on Big L‘s album with a tongue twisting Jay-Z and most recently contributed the ‘Da Veteran’ to Marco Polo‘s latest release. Currently working on a new album titled Grown Man B.I. featuring Sadat X, Cuban Link and Chip-Fu, the I Dot U Dot took some time out to talk shop with me about a number of topics – namely booze, broads and beats.
Robbie: What was your MC name back when you first started?
Grand Daddy IU: When I started off it was ‘Almighty U.B.’, and then it was ‘The Grand Daddy U’. Before your name you always put ‘The Almighty’ or whatever. Then Biz Markie put the whole shit together – ‘Granddaddy I.U.’ He put it like that on the contract, so I was like, ‘What the fuck, man?’ (more…)
Trying to pick the best Paul Mitchell remix is like trying to pick your favorite type of booze – they all work in the real situation. But since I’m restricting each round to eight selections, stuff like the “Resurrection’ remixes just missed out on making the cut. (more…)
Just got put on to some timeless gems over at Lord Finesse‘s Facebook gallery, featuring a teenage Fat Joe, Big L, DJ Premier, GURU and more. “Whole lotta memories…” (c) Iz The Wiz. (more…)
Looks like the rumors about Robert Robriguez’ fake trailer from Grindhouse getting made into a full-length feature were true after all!
Machette is hitting cinema’s on September 3, 2010.
Update/Late-pass: Damn…according to Wikipedia:
The United States release is set for September 3, 2010 by 20th Century Fox. On May 5, 2010, Robert Rodriguez responded to Arizona’s controversial immigration law by releasing an “illegal” trailer on Ain’t It Cool News. The fake trailer combined elements of the Machete trailer that appeared in Grindhouse with footage from the actual film, and implied that the film would be about Machete leading a revolt against anti-immigration politicians and border vigilantes. Several movie websites, including Internet Movie Database, reported that it was the official teaser for the film. However, Rodriguez later revealed the trailer to be a joke, explaining “it was Cinco de Mayo and I had too much tequila.” It has now been confirmed by Robert Rodriguez that a new trailer for Machete would be released with Predators.
What’s the greatest remix in rap? Tough question. A lot of people might say Pete Rock‘s remix of ‘Shut ‘Em Down’, but I figure the best way to narrow down the field is to group it by artist or crew for each round. You might want to grab some popcorn, this could take a while…
Mr. Walt & DJ Evil Dee are the foundation of Da Beatminerz crew, even though it’s membership has at various stages included Baby Paul, Rick Black, Chocolate Ty. and even Aaron “Freedom” Lyles and Ike Lee for the ‘Poppa Large’ remix (which Walt and Evil Dee weren’t involved with so I’m excluding it). While the crew has delivered some of their strongest work on original projects, they’ve also laced some top-notch remixes over the years. Here are eight of the best: (more…)
As a promotion for the new Rapstar video game, here’s a trivia quiz for you too eff around with. It’s also made me realize that I need to get rid of the grey border’s on this site one of these days… (more…)
Here’s the the non-speaking half-Puerto Rican brother from New York on a session that apparently they were all too high and drunk to remember properly:
Dres: “Mista Lawnge is definitely on a version of “Scenario.” There was a version that didn’t come out that Lawgne was on. I was at a couple of sessions for it, I remember that, but there wound up being so many people on this song, literally. I didn’t even understand what he [Q-Tip] was doing, there were so many people, and it was already such a dope record before it came out. I knew it was going to be a hit. (more…)
Duke Bootee is made the mighty Linn Drum his bitch from 1985-87, providing b-boy’s with some of the loudest drums ever put to record after his stint as a session musician at Sugarhill. To the untrained ear, a lot of these records sound interchangeable, but they all hold-up surprisingly well thanks to the winning combination of monstrous snares, gravel-shattering scratches, Shout Rap and human beat-box. Oh, and never, ever, ever forget the novelty keyboard melody… (more…)
