From Asa:
Thaddeus and I have a history of working together. It just works. However, the original song slated for this spot ended up being remade and landed on his "Dirty Bird" EP. 

We originally released this song as a one-off with no project connected to it. It's great - I love the Sly and The Family Stone beat and the fact Thaddeus wrote all about dancing.. this being the only song on this EP you could dance to.

Sly Boogie ft Notebook Noise (By Asa Phelps)

GINGY Ft. Starving Yet Full - RAPT ( SERGE&TYRELL RMX )


Here is a jazzy collaboration between UK based producer Pawloero and Chicago based emcee Notebook Noise. Jazz night symbolizes that once a week night or once a month night were you don't have to do anything but chill out with some w***, w### and w****** and listen to your favorite records.  The track has a 1956 recording of Moody's classic remake of Frances Langford's timeless classic 'I'm In The Mood For Love. 

Pawloero and Notebook have collaborated many times over the last couple of years and we hope you enjoy this track.

The power and magic of the internet allowed Chicago based rapper Notebook Noise to be found on Soundcloud by Dj Jad, a legendary Dj from Italy's Hip Hop scene. I'm serious an absolute legend.  The end result is the whimsicial and catchy "Over The Moon".  A song about being completely in love, laced with infectious piano licks and riffs paired with a feel good old school hip hop beat produced by Dj Jad.

"I mean I like all your jams and I am always honest...this might be one of the coolest jams I've heard from you in a minute."  -Asa Phelps

"It's like the most fitting beat for your delivery in a long time!!" -Asa Phelps

Vision 20/20 on a thousand yard stare
But I'm more apt to a 100 foot glare
What's a thousand yard stare to a 100 foot scowl
Learned don't ever bite when you can get with a growl
Don't bug me I want to binge watch episodes 
Piss out the window with a funnel and rubber hose
order two pizzas eat one hot and one cold
just like that keep one lit and one rolled 
Notebook nonsense is absolute nuisance
say something you’ll regret your two cents
hence I never catch rest on laurels
or hold pints and quarts when found finding quarrels 
Prefer coral auras to envious green tones
Prefer explorers to those that seek thrones
Build unique homes for the homeless squat 
Sometimes the world you need is not what you've got 


Melee’s, mayhem, evil and greed
Sometimes the world you've got ain't the world you need 

ominous black clouds celestial sirens 
Fill in the xword for intellectual dry runs
nice to meet ya I'm Jeff or Thaddeus James
I know about rap, paint and cannabis names; 
those are synonymous I'm autonomous 
If I'm seen sorted I hope it weren't recorded
even secret squirrels is known to get snared
Even Notebook Noise is known to get blared 
Figure foxes obnoxious the way(since) they never get caught 
Three cheers for another good fight fought 
A good night sought and a raw life rolled 
A safety cone to pass and hold
When your passions bold your mood expands
Maybe use them hands to boot some grands
Trunk some crunk and consume some room
More Space a taste I could learn to groom
I can be that one plain Thaddeus James 
You can be the fun new cannabis names 
Yo expecting the worst just might make it so
but if you don’t give it no light to it just might help it grow

Notebook Noise cashed in on the iconic artwork of 2012’s release Strange Tongue that featured front man Thaddeus James riding the neck of a giraffe. He used the momentum from music blog posts and released Strange Tongue's acapellas and instrumentals as: The Giraffter Party Acapellas & Instrumentals. The online response from producers remixing the acapellas was far greater than Thaddeus could’ve ever anticipated. Remixes have been coming in from all over the planet on a regular basis. A solid representation of this response can be seen on the final installment of the Strange Tongue trilogy: Giraffter Hours. Graphic artist Joe Sampson did an amazing job on all three album covers. And of course the trilogy is free and features production from John Gray aka Johnny Cosmic 

Thaddeus James has also released #PhenomenalCake. It’s not quite an album, but bigger than an EP and in the style of a mixtape. Instrumentals for the project were selected from Soundcloud and Bandcamp. #PhenomenalCake features a two track intro by Burt The Turtle. He raps into a tin can and loves a turtle named Ruby. The remaining 7 tracks play out like a soundtrack to a party at the turtle's lake house. When Thaddeus wasn’t writing as a turtle or rapping as himself about cake, he was also rapping about breast milk and being too old to yolo. Long time collaborator Asa Phelps continues to send instrumentals and Thaddeus is writing as quickly as Asa is sending them. The collection of tracks between the two will be released under the title Shits Creek. Expect to hear the introspective, soul-searching rhymes you’ve grown to love from Notebook Noise. Thaddeus has also teamed up with Polish based record label Awesome Music Place to put out an EP and has worked as a writer for the label as well penning a song for Kaja Czulewicz.  There is also a new project in the works between Thaddeus James and Vin Rizzo aka Rizzly Bear on production. 

The group has come a long way from Snares, Hooks and RhymeBooks, the debut that landed them on URB’s Next 1000 list back in 2008. The guys followed that up with 2009’s Debonair Wit, which earned them ‘leak of the week’ accolades from ThePier.org for the song “The Art of Throwing ft. Knowledgeborn07”. In February 2010 Notebook Noise started officially playing live and by October they had landed on WGN for a morning spot promoting the event Fashion Mash that took place at Double Door and Flat Iron Art Institute. With the release of 2012’s Strange Tongue; Notebook Noise was featured on several music blogs and even some food blogs for the daddy/daughter duet Cookies ft. LULUTRON.  Releasing the acapellas has even gotten Thaddeus’ vocals mashed up with Polish emcees and an emcee from Japan and many others. You can even catch some kids from the UK skateboarding on youtube to NN instrumentals. Here’s to the future.
