The second taster from Paul White‘s new album “Paul White & The Purple Brain” is a here and features Detroit’s heavy-hitting MC Guilty Simpson. On “Ancient Treasure” he rips the shit out of this joint and Paul instantly responded with two killer remixes to turn what was supposed to be a bonus 45 cut into a fully-fledged single. Free download of the original version of “Ancient Treasure” at hi-res via Bandcamp or just spend a couple of bucks to get them all. This 12″ will be available as a bonus 3rd disc with the first 500 copies of the “Paul White & The Purple Brain” 2LP. Big ups One-Handed & Stones Throw..

Our brand new website will launch early Januari, the Moovmnt Sampler releases will be dropping like hotcakes and Moovmnt TV is coming up.
Our Belgian homeboy Azer did a 2009 mix and it goes hard as you might guess. It’s a selection of some of his favorite tracks released in 2009. It was broadcasted on December 30, 2009 in the Laid Back Show on FM Brussel. Happy new year and see you on the flipside.

In Search of Stoney Jackson is produced entirely by Madlib, longtime friend of Phil Da Agony and extended Strong Arm Steady family. The album’s conception owes a great deal to World Famous Beat Junkie, J.Rocc, who provided the trio with close to 200 of the Madlib the Beat Konducta’s tracks to choose from. Strong Arm Steady had previously rapped over Madlib productions on the Madlib and Talib Kweli Liberation album, but this full-length marks a long-desired collaboration between the four. It’s a hip-hop jam session, with the group acting as the rhythm section for an all-star cast of guest vocalists such as Planet Asia, Guilty Simpson, Evidence, Chase Infinite, and Phonte of Little Brother. (Stones Throw)
This will hit the streets January 26th and is already available as a digital release via the Stones Throw website!

The charisma that Detroit’s heavy hitting MC Guilty Simpson and Los Angeles based Beat Konducta Madlib share is undeniable. A string of songs going back to Guilty’s first appearance on wax (Jaylib’s “Strapped”) testify to a musical kinship that is rare in today’s rapper-as-an-accessory marketplace. To us, Guilty over a Madlib beat is like hearing Guru over Premier circa Daily Operation, or CL over Pete around the time they recorded “Straighten It Out.” Some times, a rapper and a producer just work well together.
The two together making “OJ Simpson”, Madlib (Otis Jackson) and Guilty Simpson. OJ Simpson is the name of the album. No, you won’t hear Guilty make any references to bloody gloves. No, you won’t catch Madlib driving a bronco. These are some 14 hard hitting, straight from the gutter hip hop tracks featuring Guilty’s inimitable baritone and a couple guest appearances (Elzhi, Strong Arm Steady). Some cuts by J.Rocc. And a whole bunch of attitude. This is one of our favorite projects in a while.
The title track and the needs-nothing-more-than-the-title verbal onslaught that is “Coroners Music” will remind you of the hip hop you’ve missed. The even sicker title track “OJ Simpson” might just be the hardest joint I’ve heard in a minute! To find out more about this killer combo and buy their music go to the Stones Throw Store.
