Like many genres and sub-genres out there at the moment, hip-hop continues to move through changes, stretches and amalgamations of sounds. Hip-hop music is, as most people are already very much aware, a component of the hip-hop cultural movement which started in New York during the 70s. But you didn’t have to be a teenager [...]

During Dam-Funk’s takeover of Benji B’s BBC 1Xtra program this week, the latter told the Leimert Park -based funk pharaoh how much sense his music makes in Los Angeles, describing it as the ideal driving music–a simple but accurate observation. Dam’s slinky, swaying sunshine funk combines his 80s inspirations (Slave, Aurra, early Prince) with the [...]

The Smoking Section (Free subscription) | 10/28/2009

If you’ve been here any amount of time then you know that Gotty™ knows nada about Doom, Madlib, Madvillian or any of these evil comic book characters who rap.

Mayer Hawthorne — A Strange Arrangement

Spare Room (Free subscription) | 10/21/2009

Mayer Hawthorne -- A Strange Arrangement Mayer Hawthorne's debut album A Strange Arrangment (Stone's throw) has generated much fuss and hype. So I'm surprised that I'm not ready to give it the love it craves or the acclaim that others have thrown its way.
