DJ Mujava mane!  Word to Clinton for putting me on to this a while back.  Also featured in Bobcast mix Vol 11, which features African house and Kwaito.  Dancing in the video is straight up bottle store baby.

The Fate of Hip Hop

Filed under: Tracks, Trends — bobbystrange @ 3:37 pm

Much ink has been spilled over the fate of hip-hop in recent weeks.  I just finished an excellent dissertation by a friend in Chicago on the topic, and Sasha Frere-Jones contrasts Jay Z’s new record with the up and comer from the Midwest Freddie Gibbs – check a track off his mix tape below.   This  track is waaaaay laid back.  Another interesting piece in the Village Voice by Amy Linden uses Def Jam’s 25th anniversary as a jumping off point.
