Pass The Courvoisier feat. Full Crate

#SCMFLIPSV7

Targeted to biting MCs amazed and captured by Rakim's style and lyricism, letting them know he is the originator and that he can't and should not be copied. There's only one R in the alphabet... Don't Sweat The Technique.

Don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique

Let's trace the hits and check the file
Let's see who bit to detect the style
I flip the script so they can't get foul
At least not now, it'll take a while
I change the pace to complete the beat
I drop the bass 'til MCs get weak
For every word they trace, it's a scar they keep
'Cause when I speak, they freak to sweat the technique
I made my debut in '86
With a melody and a President's mix
And now I stay on target and refuse to miss
And I still make hits with beats
For parties, clubs, and for cars and jeeps
My underground sound vibrates the streets
MCs wanna beef, then I play for keeps
When they sweat the technique

Don't sweat the technique

They wanna know how many rhymes have I ripped and wrecked
But researchers never found all the pieces yet
Scientists try to solve the context
Philosophers are wondering what's next
Pieces are took to labs to observe 'em
They couldn't absorb 'em, they didn't deserve 'em
My ideas are only for the audience ears
For my opponents, it might take years
Pencils and pens are swords
Letters put together from a key to chords
I'm also a sculpture, formed with structure
Because of my culture, I'm equipped to construct the
Technical styles that'll be full of technology
Complete sights and new heights after I get deep
You don't have to speak, just seek
And peep the technique

But don't sweat the technique

Don't sweat the technique

But don't sweat the technique 

I speak indiscreet 'cause talk is cheap
Then I get deep in the beat then complete the
Poem with physique, never weak or obsolete
They never grow old, techniques become antiques
Better then something brand new 'cause it's original
In a while, style will have much more value
Classical, too intelligent to be radical
Masterful, never irrelevant, mathematical
Here's some soothing souvenirs
For all the years, you fought and sought the thoughts and ideas
It's cool when you freak to the beat
But don't sweat the technique

Don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique

Don't sweat the technique

And don't forget... peep the technique

Don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique
Don't sweat the technique

Eric B. & Rakim | Don't Sweat The Technique (1992) Remix

Jorun Bombay & The Rampagers 'Polaris'/'Never Heard It Like This'

We gladly present to you to second volume of ‘Bridging the Gap’. This time round, instead of combining about 55 different musical pieces or pieces of musical pieces together in a 60-minute mix, we decided to use a little bit over 100. 

The mix includes a tribute to the classic breaks mixes in the form of mixing and cutting up newer renditions of iconic songs; a tribute to Jay Dee; a tribute to MF DOOM who is to both of us one of the most extravagant and influential MCs of all time; and a tribute to Double K from People Under The Stairs who is to both of us a real unsung hero of hip-hop. May these three colossuses rest in peace.

Apart from that, there is the mandatory good amount of lesser-known breaks and grooves across rap, funk and disco, plus this time we also ventured into neo soul and afrobeat. 

We would like to thank Moneyshot, Static and Professor Groove from WeFunk Radio, Jazz T, Oonops and the Cut Beetlez whose shoutouts you can briefly hear sprinkled throughout the mix. In the intro you’ll hear us being called “giants in the game” which we surely do not live up to. Students of the craft - this we’ll always be.

Extremely limited CD with 4-page insert available at:

Peace Everyone…..

Today is February 7th, 2013….which means it is the birthday of one of the greatest Hip Hop Producers of all time, James Yancey aka J Dilla.  Today he would've been 39 years old.  It is incredible that every month of February for the last 8 years that Dilla's life & music is celebrated around the whole world.  It is also bittersweet because he was taken from us in such an early age when it looked like he was really get ready to take the world by storm.  I've been very lucky & blessed to be part of his close circle of friends when he moved to Los Angeles.  Not only was he was a talented individual and one of the nicest & humble guy I ever met, he was also a private person…..you definitely don't want to get on his nerves…LOL!!

I know there's a lot of Dilla Tribute mixes out there, and me personally, I don't think there's anyone that can out top a Dilla mix that was made by my fellow Beat Junkie & the 3rd Member of Jaylib, the Funky President himself, J.Rocc.  The only one who can possible come close would our good friend, Houseshoes.  I already made 2 mixes a few years ago, but I was inspired again to work on another one.  I tried to finish the mix late last night but got real tired….I just finally finished this mix before the day was over.  I definitely was trying not to repeat songs like I did on my previous Dilla mixes but sometimes you can't help going back to his classic catalogue.  Anyways, here's my third installment of my "J Dilla Whatupdoe" mixes, a 30 minute vibe mix.  Unfortunately, we also lost another Musical legend a few days ago….Mr. Donald Byrd, and i actually added the original "Think Twice" song to the mix as well as Dilla's version, in paying homage to the legendary musician.

Rest in Peace to Donald Byrd…..and Rest In Peace & Happy Birthday to one of the greatest….J Dilla.
