Firday Night Jazz: The Hip-Hop Edition
I've been drinking, a lot, tonight. Nothing like a bottle of wine to get me flipping through my old hip hop CDs. So ... nothing especially new tonight, but that's not always a bad thing.We'll start off with two songs that reach all the way back to those heady years that make up my time in high school, A Tribe Called Quest's "Excursions" and Public Enemy's "By the Time I Get To Arizona".
From there, we're off to the hip-hop torch-bearers: The Roots (Thought At Work"), Blackalicious ("Do This My Way"), and Black Star ("Definition").
And, as a kind of coda, just because it strikes me at the moment as fucking hilarious, Patton Oswalt on Robert Evans.
I just realized I've uploaded a metric dick ton of stuff. So, if you're interested, be sure to download it sooner rather than later. This stuff may not remain here too long.
