Funk Marathon Volume 5


Hot on the heels of volume 4 I'm coming at ya with a fifth endurance event. Funk Marathon 5 is another epic. Of course there are some breaks in here that have been sampled to fame. Others are pretty gosh-darn-obscure. This is a collection which will have your head nodding for hours. Like 8 hours and 26 minutes. I did these lengthy compilations about 5-6 years ago and I find myself going back to them all the time. I hope these funk marathons get the same kind of love in your collection, now and years down the road. To appease my wise, sagey critics I am going to quit pontificating now and let the music speak for itself. Download it here --

Yo, which one o' y'all down wit' B.B.O.?

One of the many gems posted in T.R.O.Y.'s Illest EPs Ever thread is from this little known group:





Best Ballers Out, or B.B.O., also known as The B.B.O. Crew, B.B.O. Enterprises or B.B.O. Niggas were a Harlem based group composed of (then Murda) Mase’s brother Blinky Blink (who would later be known from Harlem World), Napizm, White Bread, Beef Tha Thief, Futuristic and manager Chuck Black. (Real names according to the credits on their EP: T. Gilford, M. Foster, K. Leigh, G. Jones, G. Burgess and T. Saunders.) They had ties to DJ S&S, the Niggaz For Life crew and The Children of the Corn(er), first getting shout outs from the likes of Mase and Big L starting around ’93, their song from ’96 Get Rude may have been inspired by Mase’s ’93 track of the same name (V2 / VBR). Sometime starting around ’97, shortly before the group disappeared, they had ads up in The Source promoting what would have been their debut album: Across From 125th St., which of course never dropped. By the end of ’98 they had basically all but vanished completely.

Update on Guru's health

GURU'S HEALTH STATUS IS STABLE, NOT IN COMA; ISSUES OFFICIAL STATEMENT


UPDATE: Guru is diagnosed by his doctors as ailing from Anoxia due to his history of lung problems and asthma. Guru is NOT in coma and he continues to recover. The doctors are hopeful for a full recovery.

Thoughts and prayers have been with legendary Hip-Hop emcee Guru since his hospitalization earlier this month due to a heart attack. Solar, the rapper's longtime partner and best friend, said Guru has a history of lung problems and asthma and is slowly recovering.

Guru, born Keith Elam, recently disclosed his first statement, assuring the public that he is recuperating, and that his producer Solar will stand as his representative during his recovery.

"I am doing fine and I am recovering! I'm weak though," Guru said. "Solar is the only person who has the accurate info on my situation. Any info from anybody else is false. I appreciate your well wishes and all the love!"

The producer expressed similar sentiments about the rapper's health status, saying: "Guru is resting and doing well. The doctors say that he will fully recover from his illness. We thank everyone who send prayers our way and we appreciate the outpouring of love from fans around the world!"

There are a lot of rumors and false allegations circulating around, but Guru explicitly named Solar his official spokesperson and the hit producer is taking this position very seriously.

"Guru has entrusted me to be accurate and truthful in relaying information to the media," Solar said.

The producer is in constant contact with Guru's relatives like the MC's father and brother who have visited the legendary rapper numerous times.

"When a patient is in such critical conditions it is very common that not everyone is allowed to enter the room, especially when Mr. Keith Elam doesn't want to see certain people," one of Guru's doctors said.

Many Hip-Hop artists from around the world sent well wishes to Guru but some people from his past are trying to shed bad light on his partner Solar for his position in this situation.

In a previous interview with AllHipHop.com, Guru made it clear that he and his former deejay and some people he used to work with were never that close. "People ask me about [...] all that. We were never all that close. We hooked up in the studio and did great music, but we were never hanging and all that cool. Solar and I, we got tight before we even started doing music."

Guru, the sole founder of the world-famous Hip-Hop duo GangStarr, is reluctant to talk about his GangStarr past, especially his ex-DJ who he hasn't spoken to in over 7 years.

"That's something I don't want to talk about. I don't want to talk about the past. The past is the past. It is what it is. It was great, but that was then and this is now." said Guru.

Doctors have not given any indication as to when Guru might be released, but the rapper is touched by the fan support.

"The outpouring of love from around the world has been tremendous," Solar said. "I'm reading some of the best e-mails, texts and Twitters that come in and Guru enjoys them. I think that's what has been helping his recovery and what's got him in there fighting."

During what must be an incredibly hard and stressful period in life, keep sending your prayers, thoughts, and wishes to Guru, Solar and his loved ones.

In homage to Guru and his outstanding career, his record label 7 Grand Records decided to upload all his classic music videos to the label's official YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/7grandrecords.

Discography
Biography
Press

J Rock with a Porsche in Poughkeepsie, New York (1991):



“This is like the Amerikkka’s Most Wanted of the New York ghetto. Probably one of the most gangsta albums in sound that we’ve heard… the fact that this came out in 1991 simply shows its brilliance further.” Chris Aylen – Spine Magazine



In 1989, an nineteen year old MC from Newburgh, NY named J Rock was discovered by independent label owner Jeff Murphy. Shortly thereafter, the two would collaborate, along with upstart producers DJ Premier & Easy Mo Bee to produce a memorable album called Streetwize. Actually, J Rock had released a 12” single entitled The Chosen One prior to releasing Streetwize in early 1990 on Murphy’s Ghetto Groovz Label. Moderately received by the hip hop community, it got some airplay on various hip hop and college radio stations. After the single, J Rock knew he needed to improve his skills, so he put together a homemade studio and went to work. “The Chosen One was a wake up call, it showed me that I was not ready and that I had to work on my skills” recalled J Rock. “I had to prove to Jeff that I was ready to put in the time and commitment that it would take to make it work.”

While working on his lyrical skills, J Rock also discovered that he had talent producing tracks. “After we did The Chosen One, Jeff got Premier and Mo Bee to do some tracks for me and the other artists he had on the label. While we were in the studio, I watched Premier and I learned from him how to put together tracks.” J Rock took what he learned into the studio and put together a demo that he eventually sent in to The Source Magazine. He was featured in the Unsigned Hype column of the December 1990 issue. It stated that “this is the type of shit you’d hear at a battle in a playground and this is the type of MC that might walk away with the belt”. After the feature, Murphy and J Rock along with DJ Big Chris went back into the studio to complete the album.

The eighteen track album contained tales of daily life in the ghetto and ultimately became a critical success, receiving many positive reviews, including a glowing review in The Bomb Hip Hop newsletter in which it was given four stars. Two videos, Save the Children and Neighborhood Drug Dealer were produced for the album. They were shown on Yo! MTV Raps and other rap video shows. The album has become a collectors item, with people paying top dollar for an original copy. The lasting appeal of Streetwize showed itself again in July 2006 when a story about the album appeared in Wax Poetics. J Rock explains the continued interest, “I think that real hip hop heads know what time it is, they know what’s good and what’s not and they appreciate Streetwize for what it is, real hardcore simplistic hip hop, you don’t hear this kinda stuff anymore."

The Source: March 1993 issue featuring Naughty By Nature






Life has been hectic lately but I’m back with another issue for everyone. (Side note – I have a couple of never before posted magazines that will hit this site very soon). Now, who didn’t love Naughty By Nature? While Kay Gee and Vinnie played the background perfectly, I had always likened Treach to Busta Rhymes in that he seemed to have that natural charisma and appeared to be friendly with almost any other rapper at the time. Combine that with Naughty’s penchant for crafting catchy hip-hop jingles and they just couldn’t lose. And to top it off, they had Spike Lee directing the video for the lead song from their second album, ‘Hip-Hop Hooray’, with no less than a hundred guest appearances from the hip-hop world at the video shoot. How could they lose?




Well, they didn’t. I’m sure they went gold and platinum with their singles and albums (check here: http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?table=SEARCH) and they didn’t have to give up an ounce of credibility. I think it’s safe to say that they peaked in 1993, too. But here’s a question for you, should Treach have gone solo for an album or two? I think so. And why isn’t Treach ever brought up in a discussion of the best rappers of that era and of all time? Is it because he’s from New Jersey and not New York? Does his voice wear on you? What is it?










If you're looking for something else, then head on over to THIMK.


And don’t forget, the pw = thimk.

Funk Marathon Volume 4


My roomate hates hip hop. Once in awhile I give him a break. A long break., such as 9 hours and 46 minutes of solid funk instead. Anything is worth doing is worth doing thoroughly, like 141 continuous tracks in a row thoroughly. I'm a fan of all kinds of music save perhaps Verizon's god awful smooth jazz while customers stay on hold for 20 minutes. I should get a new job as the hack who picks waiting music for the corporate world. People could rock out until the supervisor comes on to confirm that yes indeed, you really ARE shit-out-of-luck-sir. On a less cynical note, I figure you funk diggers will recognize some of the gems here. Hopefully you'll come across alot of new cuts. Most of the selections here are 70's tracks but there are a few earlier and later songs too. Turn this compilation up at the barbeque, on your headphones while you drift in cyberspace, while you hang onto the wheel 9 hours in traffic. If you love funk as much as I do Funk Marathon Volume 4 will keep you satisfied for a long time to come.
