Notorious B.I.G. & Mercy Sluts - Hypnotize $600 (Steely Chan's Blender Mash)

The Getup are more than your average Hammond Funk outfit and this track proves it. A bubbling bass line kicks the track into a killer up tempo funk groove, having you reaching for the volume knob to crank it up as the first verse bursts out.  The track takes on a whole new dimension as the chorus reveals a four-on-the-floor solid dance groove, with Jamiroqui-esque tasty chord changes, and then the horns stab us back into the next verse.  A percussive, reverberant Hammond solo takes us into a drum break that is DJ and sampler's heaven, before the tunes rounds out with a double chorus and ends on more punchy stabs……. a midtempo vocal workout showcasing the sheer musicality of the band…….funk of the highest order!

This time around, Amerigo takes on James Brown in The Big Payback Vol lll. In the third and latest offering from "The Big Payback" summer mix series, the producer follows the exceptionally awesome first and second volumes from the legendary DJ Scratch and master craftsman, J. Period.  

Bringing together a fantasy league of all-stars for his "J.B. and The Soul Mates" tribute concept, the producer's latest offers an alternative to the sometimes uninspired, profit-driven, posthumously released albums. 

With guest appearances from Bob Marley, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Fela Kuti, The Notorious B.I.G., Mobb Deep, and more, Amerigo pays tribute to the God Father of Soul with a re-imagined set of co-conspirators.

"I'm not sure any other artist has left their imprint on popular music, especially across so many genres, as much as James Brown has.  With as many of today's hit songs that were built around some sort of James Brown flip, it's almost like he had a say in what the music of future generations would sound like without even knowing it."

Does Biggie Smalls really need an intro? He was one of the key artists that brought hip hop to new commercial heights in the mid 90s and permanently entrenched the culture into the mainstream. But alas, this also signaled the end of the golden era and quickly led to the coastal rivalries and the divisive underground/indie/backpacker movement. This week we’re messing with a 5 mic classic, Biggie’s “Juicy”, and infusing it with some super dynamite soul courtesy of Dutch outfit, The Soul Snatchers. We dedicate this to the readers of Word Up Magazine and to the listeners of WBLS’ Rap Attack...it’s all good baby, baby.
