This one here is for all my peoples in Rotterdam who get to enjoy the Soul Brotha #1 tonight @ club WATT. Sorry I can’t make it personally, but to the other Moovmnt members…tear the roof off that mothaf*cker.
Now not everybody is gonna get this, but I grew up with this music and let me tell ya’ll that Focus did a great job on making this sound like an old Pete Rock joint! Homage to Pete Rock makes me go back to ’93 when HipHop was just a teenager and luckily MC’s Big Pooh, Sha Stimuli & Kurupt back up this dope production with some ill ass lyrics. Thanks 2dopeboyz for the audio!

Finally, the first tracks of Muhsinah‘s The oscillations: Triangle. It’s been a minute since we saw something new from Muhsinah..and Triangle is shaping up to be one of our ’09 favorites.
The oscillations is actually a 2 disc LP; disc one being Sine, which actually was Daybreak 2.0, and that wasn’t new to us. So we’re glad to share these two tracks with you…enjoy..
