Any thought you had of stepping to Smif N Wessun – because maybe you thought you thought they’d lost a step – “Let It Go” suckas. The Duckdown duo has still got it. And they are putting out music to let y’all know.
9th Wonder on the beat, too. Step off!

NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series Presents: Smif N Wessun (Video)
Not like they don’t belong on this forum. They do. Just did not expect to see them featured in their own Tiny Desk Concert. Very glad Smif-N-Wessun are though!
Brooklyn-bred Hip-Hop duo Smif-N-Wessun – consisting of partners in rhyme, Steele and Tek – illuminated the Tiny Desk with their signature, 80-proof poetry: straight, no chaser. Their music, inspired by their gritty and pre-gentrified Bedford-Stuyvesant and Brownsville neighborhoods, offers the vocabulary of veterans who survived the grimy streets. These original members of the Duck Down Records group Boot Camp Clik represent quintessential ’90s true-school Hip-Hop from the bedrock, when Timberland boots were standard issue. Backing Steele and Tek for the first time is D.C.’s own Black Alley band.

Termanology – “Kaleidoscope” feat. Smif-N-Wessun (Prod. By Daringer) [Video]
The beat is by Daringer. Statik Selektah is around on this one, but he’s just holding down the scratches for this ominous jawn featuring Smif-N-Wessun. “Bad Decisions” is out now.
General Steele Speaks On Meeting Phife Dawg’s Mom, “Building Bridges” And More (Video)
Lots of artists, Indie or major, would feel some kind of way if a strong LP (one capable of sapping sales) was to drop the same day theirs did. However, General Steele is not like many artists. His view of A Tribe Called Quest, in light of the competing release, is one of respect, near hero-worship. Dude is mingling, feeling the great energy on site, and bumping into Phife’s mom… without even realizing!
(Also spoke on Sean Price’s (RIP) contribution to “Building Bridges.” Hit the link below for the full story.
General Steele – “Persistence” feat. VVS Verbal x Louie Skaggs (Video)
The streets will marry you, divorce you, then try to bury you!
Y’all better listen to a General out there in them streets! VVS Verbal and Louie Skaggs got something to say on it, too. Shiiid. Tell you what… the Tube title said this is the ‘official video’… But I’m stamping this video for “Persistence” “official!” The pros’ flows go easy on an easy rider track. Puff this niceness off the new “Building Bridges” album from General Steele & Es-K (out now).

Ras Kass – “PayPal The Feature” feat. Steele (Of Smif-N-Wessun) x Sean Price (Video)
EXTINCTION LEVEL DOPENESS!!! RIP to the P! in real raP… Sean Price! And with video like this, he can rest in peace or power or whatever… just rest well. And well thought of. This “PayPal The Feature” is everything that is right with real raw Hip-Hop. Feel how ill that beat will make you! Let the bar-after-bar attack for Ras, Steele and Sean BARbarian hit you upside the head (that’s when your head is REALLY nodding)!
(And if you recognize the Sean Price stock footage used, or at least wondered why the XXL logo was on it, points for you! We posted P! Show ‘N Off here a good while ago… back when XXL was actually picking dope emcees to step to the mic. YEAH, I SAID IT!)

General Steele Speaks On The History Of Legendary NY Street Gang ‘The Decepticons’ (Video)
Whenever you can get the real scoop from an OG, an Original Gangster for real, you should do that. That said, you should watch this interview featuring General Steele (of Tek & Steele, of Smif-N-Wessun a.k.a. The Cocoa Brovas).
If you lived through the late 80’s early 90’s in NYC you’ve heard of the ‘Decepticons’. Some might think I’m talking about the infamous villains led by Megatron from the cartoon ‘The Transformers’. The names of the actual people were the same, but nothing about these men walking around NYC was a cartoon. General Steele (a member of the crew Deceps aka The Decepticons) from the legendary group Smif-N-Wessun gives us a brief history on the street gang known as the ‘Decepticons.’
