Vinroc   Shortkut - So Much Soul

Hip-Hop I grew up with you and loved you but feel out of it when things got to hardcore and MONEY ravaged and changed you for what you really were meant to be.... many forgot who you really are, the culture, the struggle, the entertainment but most of all, the REAL skill it took to tell us stories, messages regardless if it was real or fake.
Your so taken lightly that it has divided many and some have even claimed your death because you've gone un-noticed unless 1 REALLY DIGS DEEP TO FIND YOU... 

But i'm gonna try to tell the world you exist.. one volume at a time, because I miss you so much.

Grand Groove Radio-December 08 2017-Radio Silence

"Raphael Saadiq is the Neo Soul and R&B producer, arranger and songwriter of a generation, yet criminally unsung. I simply wanted to shine a light on known, and some unknown, involvement of his in music over the years, from uptempo Soul of his own to his signature Two Step sound. 

Raphael's solo work needs no introduction, having redefined his sound over the years, remaining consistently current without loosing his era-defining, Soulaquarian-Neo-Soul feel. But his work with others artists is fascinating, linch-pinning so many killer R&B records whilst remaining forever background and humble.

There is a fascinating story told by Solange Knowles, of a misplaced Saadiq beat CD, which eventually lead to the makings, Grammy Award winning, Cranes In The Sky (Song Exploder, 2017). The Grammy captures Raphael’s nature perfectly, by not attending and opting out of the limelight. 

'I’ve been fortunate to work with both a Mick Jagger and a Kendrick Lamar, I’ve seen all sides. In terms of legacies, I just want people to look at the way I put music together and say he was a bad, bad man… But if they say nothing, I’m happy with that too.' (Raphael Saadiq, Hobbs / Quietus, 2017)

In an age of pop superstars and egos, it’s heartwarming seeing someone who’s intrinsic to the music we love, so down to earth. For the heads, there is an obvious exemption of any Ummah records, of which Raphael was an occasional member, however with exact individual involvement on each Ummah record such a grey area, that tribute mix alone is best saved for another time..."

TRACKLIST

Tribute to RAPHAEL SAADIQ - Selected by Russ Ryan

live set recorded at the Goldmark (Pittsburgh, PA.) Selecta & Digital Dave take you on a two hour journey of classic hip hop & house records and the original jazz, funk and soul tracks that they were sampled from. sit back, relax and enjoy.

Sample Platter Live Set w/ Selecta + Digital Dave (Recorded 1.23.19 @ The Goldmark)

A collective of Hip-Hop & Soul musicians who came together in the late 90s, and thrived as a unit through the early 00s, the Soulquarians represent the continuation of a thread beginning with artists like Marvin Gaye, Al Green, and Aretha Franklin. One that extends up to artists from today's generation like The Internet, Kaytranada, Dreamville, & TDE.

I recently DJed an event where the theme was All-Soulquarian. And the response to the just the theme alone was amazing. We all know Dilla changed our lives, but what about the others? Questlove has touched more modern mainstream and underground music than most know about. And Mos Def's guest appearance listing is pages and pages long.

I didn't record my set that night, because I knew the wormhole that was about to open. There are volumes and volumes of this waiting to be made! So for this installment, I tried to stay away from doing an all-hits mix and instead went for deeper cuts and remixes along with some fan favs. If you see any glaring omissions, take it all in stride friends. We'll get to more on Volume 2...
