What up my peoples!!! Well when im not intoxicated and rattling off the tip of my tounge on the BiNKIS WEBLOG, im actually puttin in work, invisioning it or talkin bout it.. My main man Dominick Brady aka Firebrand has an interesting and insightful podcast about the ATL music scene and its various aspects. I was honored to be interviewed and included in a particular series about mixtapes.. Wanna hear it here it goes.. Holla at yo muchacho im gettin off my ass to start clappin again so lookout youth…

Put yo mouse right here and click once to be transported to Firebrands page where you can listen to my interview as well as other very interesting podcast interviews YA HEARD

To have the these type of thoughts that I have sometimes.. But in a nutshell t goes like this quick and to the point.. I could (but i wont and Im not) die right now a happy man… No I haven’t reached my full potentials and yet I still have alot of labor and adversities to confront.. But if it had to go down right now or moments after I wrote this I could die tonight a happy man cause I got Aretha Franklin hollering type of RESPECTt!!!!! ya heard.. No matter how much currency you generate and wish to write about in a rap form and make a video and album and dvd about currency thats cool its your thing and thats what you choose to do but instead I wear mines and it can not be bought thats called respect…when all else fails and everything is stripped away from you if you have respect you are wealthy beyond your means.. And thats what I realize.. Everything I did I did it with heart and full intentions like my wise elder BDK once said “aint noo half steppin”.. And while I have yet life to live I will make it a point to continue to strive and multiply my wisdom as well as my contributions to the existing present an to the never ending future….For the day you coexist with everyday  has an expiration like yourself but the future you create in your present existence, however long that existence could, and will be has no end….BOOyah those are just some of the many things that I think about and tonight im full of thoughts cause Binkis rocked a really dope show tonight.. i dont like takin bout myself but them cats did they thing tonight bro..I mean  mira (look) man.. we did Bullit tonight first one out the chamber and kids went bezerko off a record we been playin for like madd years… we got that old song that still sounds good today.. That still hits people.. And i really mean kids .. them cats were in elementary when Bullit came out on Fruitmeat Recs but it moved the crowd like Rakim.And further that goes to show that when you strip hip hop back down to the original formula of an mcee or in this case 3 mcees and 1 dj black and brown movin the crowd it will hit like the lotto and people smile.. 

 

 

Big statement,,, But this is the source of the thought.. the hood is real.. The hood is the birthplace of revolution!!! If you dont see it peep game… We rap and say the streets are ours and claim this block or that block (39th and 108 Corona What up) area or whateva!! but what do you really own. What do you really have.. a building that stands on someone else land or a car that belongs to a bank.. We are right in saying that the streets are ours but thou shall not indulge in the things that are obvious,, rather in the simple fact that the streets are REALLY ours…instead of hustlin on the block or organizing schemes on the same place you walk we could be organizin our block and makin moves to empower instead of impoverish the same blocks we claim . And gaining a better return on our investment than any hustle on the block.. Lets unify for the common goal Black and Brown Pride… From Chi 2 NY Binkis till i DIE …..But dont take my word for it just ask Levar Burton about the reading rainbow.. The ghettos been good to me.. its where i feel right .. its where i eat and live.. so lets give back…

Food prices rising across the world

Food prices rising across the world

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AND MAFI loves to eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And from the heat we are experiencing in the spring in atlanta i already know its going to be a hot scorching summer yall.. start stackn up on that water cause you know they going to start taxn you in june july and august.. So im still an unemployed cat living day to day dollar to dollar and ive never felt better in my adult life.. There is something about how when nothing is garunteed that your best comes out.. Ive been spinning better since i quit my job than ever.. i can only think its cause i know every record that I touch counts… Big things coming but for now since its sooo hot outside im thinking about getting a little cart iwth a block of ice and make some frio frios to hustle the city .. You know the shaved ice joints with all the dope flavas… In corona they had crazy dope flavas like tamarind, mango, guayaba… mmmmmm picture me rolling…

and now onto the summer jammy jams!!!
Garunteed Block Party Anthem

It aint a party without this joint I remember a BBQ i had one year threw this jammy jam on and i thought my deck was gonna cave in from cats bouncing so hard to this joint..

and of course anotha anthem

now this joint I used to play right after the sat morning cartoons and fruity pebbles cereal…

Speaking of Block parties.. Richmond Hill Queens Knows how to get it in

Mixtapes are a funny game son.. Ive never recieved any feedback from a single joint that I have sold.. Every single accolade or criticism or praise Ive noticed have been from tapes I gave away.. Go wonder.. But my motivation for rocking a mixtape remains the same groundbreaking artists or styles period.. For this year 08 La Bodega is coming back to make its yearly return full of new flavor and artists from the A with my pistas (beats) on blast… other than that look out for the Jungle 45 series.. we doing big things and really creating this great brand of clothing speaking of Oro and Mixtapes.. an oldie but a goodie…

Being a dj and then taken it to another level being a dj that knows the inner workings of things (oh yeah folks i fix turntables and all that.. more on that later) this video right here tripped me the f… back.. I mean almost every dj or producer in the game today including myself bragggs about how they started making pause tapes and no doubt that was some ingenuity to take it there with minimal resources but the kid Dj Ramses from arizona takes it to the next level and beyond.. My man takes two TAPE decks and rocks it harder than some djs on the scene today can rock a 1200.. Not me thought cause i gets mine… haaaaa   

Yo Oro is my dude… and he is the illy artist in the A.. But when he starts pulling fly shit out the crate it reminds me how I gotta stay on my toes.. You see Oro is a hip hop historian.. To my knowledge he never was a dj but the cat knows about some forgotten or under exposed dope hip hop flavor. and his crates imaginary or real runnn reallll deeep. And I salute him on his blog as well as ours… But now my mans we in competition to dig up the rare gold and blow some dust off the record shelves.. So here I go.. My piece of hip hop history goes out to Powerule!!! Yeah Powerule.. My favorite joint he ever put out was “Smooth” Growin up this was one of my favotire 12in records.. Its so rare the video is not even up on youtube yet.. although i found another.. And on a side note this cat was a big deal to young Mafi cause back in the day Latinos were not reppin or respected as much as they should have and lets be real and open this up for discussion.. Back in the day if you were not black you got hated on for liking or doing hip hop.. I mean look how long it took to accept latinos doing it and then white people doin it.and eventually everybody with skillz getting the respect they deserve. Hip Hop is colorless and its for the people.. Its all fine and dandy that it was started by black AND latino youth in the inner city of NY but its for the people PERIOD… In the segregated south it was more apprarent. I still remember this dj battle at EarWax way back in the day when Das Efx was there doing an instore and Klever won the battle and blew the hats off everybody up in there and peoples were really buggin out on how this “white” boy can dj and fuck shit up… Im glad we are growing folks.. We’ve come a long way but we should never stop fighting and resisting..  And Now ON To The MUSIC! Clik on the RECORD if you want the MP3!!!
