J. Period & K’NAAN – The Messengers (Digital EP)
This is a three track preview to J. Period & K’NAAN’s tribute to musical “Messengers” such as Fela Kuti, Bob Marley & Bob Dylan.
The Messengers will be released in 5 parts over the course of 5 weeks, beginning with the first installment—a 3-song digital EP featuring one Fela remix, one Marley, and one Dylan—on Tuesday, August 18. Following the EP release, J.Period & K’NAAN will pay tribute to each of “The Messengers” individually with a new release every Tuesday in September, beginning with a tribute to Fela Kuti (September 1), Bob Marley (September 8), Bob Dylan (September 15), and culminating in the release of The Messengers in its entirety (including additional bonus tracks and artwork) on September 22.

Sandman is back to being broke in Philly…and being one of at least 3 Sandman’s in Hip Hop.

Sandman is THAT nigga, to me it’s no Re Up without him. they all brought different shit to the table but it was all top caliber and together it sounded amazing. Vol 2 was a phenomenal piece of work they put together, everyone was on their A game.

Fuck the finances. Money’s husky tone and drawl mixed with his lyrics is lava. Clipse and Liva won’t put out individual mixtapes better than Gianormus. I put that on these Trader Joe snacks.

Bob Dylan and Fela Kuti make 99% of the shit posted here daily look like a fucking joke. That’s a comment on the quality of music made today, not the site.
