BoneBreaker Jones x Sam Peezy – “Come On” (ALL CAPS No Cap RESPECT Remix)
Whew! Finally got the go-ahead to let this thang goooo! BoneBreaker Jones & Sam Peezy (aka Tony Factory) did a remix to “Come On” and performed it live at The Remix (@ATLRemix) #Sweet16 Anniversary shindig… You know… The #ALLCAPSnocap #RESPECT event-within-an-event weeks ago (earlier post on that here)… and NOW you get the FREE stream/download of that. But you need to grab it ASAP! And no, I’m not going into ‘why’ (just trust me; DO NOT WAIT).
This is the remix to “Come On”… that we (super-producer Sam Peezy aka Tony Factory and I) debuted on-air… LIVE! We performed it for the inaugural @ALLCAPSnocap Showcase #RESPECT at the #Sweet16 Anniversary Celebration for The Remix (Atlanta) radio show.
Tore the radio studio DOWN! They’re still repairing it, I think. Don’t worry we apologized before we left the site of the wreckage.
So yeah though… This track was created to be played LOUD. The lyrics were crafted to reach DEEP. This music came from our souls. We hope it touches yours!
Please download and share this EVERYWHERE and with EVERYONE!
(And LISTEN… if you need help, GET HELP. Please share that, too. MESSAGE!)

Been a minute since we heard from Roc Marci, right? Well, “The Specialist” was worth the wait. Hearing barz by Marciano should be enough to get you amped. But just in case someone’s ear needs more temptation, we have dude spitting over a beat by Pete Rock (complete with the classic chatter and overdubs on the track from the Golden Era Soul Brother).

BIG K.R.I.T. – “Energy†(Video)
Presenting Danny Clinch, One Of The Architects of “Illmatic†(Video)
When even the photographer knows it’s a classic… it’s a classic, son. Danny Clinch, visual storyteller, speaks on another storyteller, Nas, and his seminal work “Illmatic.”
The day of Nas’ “Illmatic” shoot, photographer Danny Clinch was given a simple run of show by the teenage emcee. “Let’s just walk around my neighborhood. My friends are gonna be there. We’re gonna sit in the park, drink gin and juice and smoke blunts. And you’ll photograph it.” The resulting images are nearly as iconic as the music itself. As #IllmaticXXV approaches, Clinch himself recalls the moment.

Kenneth B x TTBBY – “Glo Up” (Prod. By Jet Jackson) [Video]
Tee goes by TTBBY now. Still on the grind, allowing brief glimpses of fulfillment in the midst of the hustle. Like in this vid with Kenneth B. The rhymes are all about the ‘grustle’ (grind + hustle), but the duo is on the track flowing like good liquor and better smoke at the best backyard party.
Bit of a different vibe than what I post from Tee. Still fux’ing with it. And please don’t miss the subtle stuff about the vid: Flowing on the track, on a [train] track AND TTBBY smoking up a thunder cloud while wearing a D.A.R.E. anti-drug tee shirt!
Enjoy.
