The most underrated M.C's this era.... Hands down... Ivan Ave gets no Love in main stream Radio,  and it's a fuck'n shame.!!  No hate AT ALL  but they bullshit like......... Hum let me think....  Black youngster....!!  really...

just good music... & he's talking about life.. the rite way. SMFH

Jazz'd up

from the upcoming Oddisee instrumental album "The Beauty In All" (10/1).

About the new album "The Beauty In All":
"The Beauty In All is about the flaws & mistakes that give life its character and worth - how even ignorance can give light to knowledge. For me, not knowing how to do something & still trying is a process that helped my production style evolve. If everything we are is out in perfect tutorials, we might never deviate from the teacher. This record is dedicated to imperfection and the sense of pride & accomplishment we get from our struggles. Hopefully, you listen to this record, reflect on the ups & downs of life, and see The Beauty In All."

Order The New Album!

JuJu Rogers - Do It For prod. by Knowsum

The Artifical Scene of Hiphop back in 1990s was a real cool feel. That feeling of music shall not be forgotten.

Vocalists/Rappers: Zaruflo, Devi Loc
Producer: Zaruflo

Lyrics:

So let's rewind, the amount of time
When hiphop culture was so sublime
Old school techniques, true words of a preacher
Joint was on point, better than a teacher

Waking up writing emotional letters
I was six years old, saw birds of a feather
Every knows, weather getting better
I'd pick sunboots with chopsticks and leather

Bring back, bring back
Bring back, bring back the old school style
Bring back, bring back (I said I said)
Bring back (I said I said), bring back the old school style

Z-A-R-U-F-L-O
G-o-a-t from head to toe
Raggedy sweatshirts and raggedy clothes
Come back together and quit being foes

1990, best age of hiphop
Club going crazy, dancing in flip flops
Catching every rhythm, hearing the beat drop
De-pop, butterscotch, tying knots, and play dots.

Beat, the music, the groove, the flow
Sound, the pound, the highs, the lows
Zaru, plus the F-L-O
Got a story to tell listen up here we go!

Bring it back, not gonna lie
Love wearing shoes with a suit and a tie
Ya momma see me from a far looking fly
Please don't kill me I don't wanna die

Bring back, bring back
Bring back, bring back the old school style
Bring back, bring back (I said I said)
Bring back (I said I said)
Bring back (now motherfucka I said)

Bring it back I bring 3 stacks
This is boombap, y'all just tag along
Y'all just monologues name another rapper with a catolog
Like mine mine y'all could never

8 billion people to reach
If they can't find me it's just the timing
Can't stop me, 200 styles
I got shit y'all can't even cop it

Devi like, 2 hot, fish shine it might melt the rock
Phone bricked, too many bitches giving me top
Can't afford clothes, now I could buy the whole store
Yam up, scope out, kdot on yo head

Two step, three heads, four dead 
Five left of us yea it's too bad,
Gang violence never left till this day I say
Till this day I say

Bring back (gotta bring it back)
Bring back (gotta bring it back)
Bring back (gotta bring it back)
Bring back the old school style

Bring back, bring back
Bring back (what are we gonna bring back?)
Bring back the old school style

(Bomboclatt)

Ivan Ave - The Circle (prod. Mndsgn)

Another week, another single from Life Sketches Vol.3! 

Honestly i've been a Grap Luva fan since my teenage years. Ever since Pete Rock introduced the world to INI via 'Fakin Jax' i've been devouring every beats & rhyme the younger soul brother has provided. I never imagined that 20 years later i'd have the opportunity to work with him and be a part of his musical history. I'm still soaking it in. Honestly, I can't say much more about this track other than LISTEN! 

Infinite love to Jabba Tha Kut for firing up his turntablism, Donald Malloy for his horn work and Joel VDK for keeping the visual fresh.
