"For this episode I decided to use nothing but 
vocals from Black Thought and Malik B of the Roots. 
It's kind of a mini tribute to one of the greatest rap 
groups of all time. I chose to use these vocals because 
I've always been a huge fan of the Roots and because I'm 
getting really excited about dropping the album 
"Unpredictable" with Malik B.

If you watch to 2:00 minutes you will see that I invented a new
way to rock the (digital) turntables. Have you ever seen somebody pick
their turntables up and play them like a guitar before? Now you have.

Instrumentals:
Undefined (look out for Jem Cretes rocking over the beat)
Kings Beat (from the Freeway and Tek song)
June 2007 (from Green Future)
Unreleased Instrumental

Vocals:
"In The Ghetto (Wake Up!)" J Period feat. Black Thought, Rakim and John Legend
"Get Busy" The Roots
"You Don't See Us" The Roots
"Metal is Out' SNIPPET Malik B and Mr. Green feat. Benefit

Shout out to Pioneer/Serato for making the
DDJ- SR, a piece of equipment so dope
that I can pick it up and play it like a guitar.

Big Shout out to Dj Critical Hype for hooking up the Acapellas.

Huge shout out as always to the video master Sam Lipman-Stern on the cut. -Green"

Stream/Download🔊 http://smarturl.it/GhettoSurvivors

Those who live comfortably behind white picket fences, are often quick to judge the lifestyle and culture of those raised by the corners. As block boys turned emcees, Boston's G dot & Born, have studied the game and have taken their experiences from the streets to the studio, as exemplified on their latest leak, "Ghetto Survivors." Production wise, Ben Hedibi crafts a soulful, slap heavy instrumental, laced with a well composed scratch hook courtesy of, DJ Technic, that takes it back to the bare bones fundamentals of MPCs and SL-1200s. And if Edo G was first to roll out the record carpet for the revivalist duo, than Masta Ace will help them to continue their ascend, with his proficient raps that detail the 'dos and dont's' of ghetto survival..."don't try to have the whole block scared of you, you never know what the scared are prepared to do."

You want a lite beer? Hit the Radisson. This is top shelf liquor. "Stormy Monday", barreled and crafted by Zilla Rocca & The Shadowboxers, aged in oak casks by Has-Lo (Mello Music Group), who produces and guests on the mic, chiseled with ice picks by The Kid Daytona (LRG Clothing's own) before sitting in front of you in this chalice. Dedicated to dark wood paneled speakeasy's and sultry women who are good till the last drop, "Stormy Monday" isn't about a quick buzz -- it's holding something in a glass that lasts all night. 

"Stormy Monday" is now available on iTunes: http://bit.ly/YsbeKf

• Either as a solo artist, in Wrecking Crew, or with his collective The Shadowboxers (formerly 5 O'Clock Shadowboxers), Zilla Rocca has released a mixtape, an LP, and 4 EP's to much acclaim, since 2008. His releases have checkered Best of the Year lists in the LA Weekly, Scene Magazine (Australia), HipHopDX, Philly Weekly, Passion of the Weiss, WXPN 88.5 FM (World Cafe Live!), and many more. 

• Zilla Rocca's collaborative homage to Wu-Tang Clan, Wu-Tang Pulp, alongside Has-Lo and Curly Castro as the Wrecking Crew, was named the #10 Best Mixtape of 2012 at HipHopDX.com. To boot, the first video "Scallops," was co-signed by Slug (of Atmosphere).

• The Shadowboxers are a continuation of Zilla's self-proclaimed "Noir Hop" style, which consist of hardboiled rhymes entrenched in slang, sex, crime and betrayal, with the city of Philadelphia as the midnight watcher.

• His 2009 LP with the Shadowboxers, The Slow Twilight was featured on the homepage of MySpace Music, and warranted online features from URB.com, 2DopeBoyz, Potholes In My Blog, The Smoking Section, Pop Matters and Metal Lungies, among others, and was named the #45 Best Hip Hop Album of the 2000's by Passion of the Weiss.

• Zilla's latest full length effort with The Shadowboxers, No Vacation for Murder, features Roc Marciano, Geechi Suede (of Camp Lo), Has-Lo (Mello Music Group), Curly Castro (Man Bites Dog Records), and Open Mike Eagle (Fake Four Inc/Hellfyre Club).

• Zilla has previously collaborated with  Starkey (Planet Mu), Reef the Lost Cauze (Army of the Pharoahes), Elucid (Lessondary Crew), Dylan (Freak Recordings/Therapy Sessions), L'Orange (Jakarta Records), Silent Dust (None60 Records), Has-Lo, Curly Castro, and Small Professor (Coalmine Records).

After releasing classic albums by Rashad & Confidence, Beneficence and Purpose & Confidence during the last couple years, Ill Adrenaline Records strikes again with another powerful and mind blowing full length. Hailing from Lynn, Massachusetts, the Tragic Allies trio Purpose, Estee Nack and Code Nine team up with Queensbridge veteran Tragedy Khadafi aka Intelligent Hoodlum to form the group "7 G.E.M.S.".

The album entitled "Golden Era Music Sciences" delivers that raw, sinister, dusty and mellow-dramatic 90's boom-bap retro style sound, laying the perfect platform for the message of enlightenment, elevation and expression the group offers its listeners on this 16-track heater.

While super-producer Confidence handled all the production on the critically acclaimed underground classic "The Purpose of Confidence" (Ill Adrenaline Records, 2012), Purpose just concentrated on showcasing his excellent and sharp lyrical rhyme skills. But this time the Tragic Allies frontman (who already worked with Killah Priest, Big Shug, Bronze Nazareth, Epidemic, etc.) is not only able to shine on the mic, he also takes charge of stellar beats for the entire album.

Featuring underground icons Roc Marciano, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Killah Priest along with up-and-coming lyricist Relentless and top-notch beatboxer Choppa, "Golden Era Music Sciences" stands for its 100% trademark Tragic Allies sound, that, infused with the mind and vibe of pioneer and Queensbridge legend Tragedy Khadafi, makes this album look like a sure bet for one of 2013's hottest rap underground albums.
