Got that ILL VIBE?

I think the first time I heard a Tribe Called Quest, I was in my house playing Nintendo (8-bit) Blades of Steel one Sunday night and I heard the festive guitar intro of "I Lost My Wallet in El Segundo". The following beats and rhymes culminated in a dizzying story of a friends traveling across the country to have some fun in the sun. The voice I'd heard before on songs with Jungle Brothers and De La Soul was this time alone in his rant. Q-Tip (Q-Tip) from a Tribe Called Quest made his movement known.

Now that 20 years has passed, hip-hop actor, Michael Rappaport is embarking on his own journey to document People's instinctive travels in the paths of rhythm with a film about A Tribe Called Quest.


And not to be forgotten, there is always the pause for the cause. Dubsack Radio bringing you the best in realy hip-hop every week on Digital Cable's Music Choice. Find Dub on the Rap Channel if you subscribe to Time Warner, Comcast, Cox, Verizon Fi-Os and RCN. All Times are EST:

All It Takes Is One Minute

Not too long ago, you were probably introduced to a new MC named LAW, flanked by Sean Price and Rock aka Heltah Skeltah on their banger, "Deathwish". Fresh out of the lab, LAW, Cali's rising son, has come back to clue you in to what his upcoming album, The Virus, is going to sound like. Calling upon the OG, MC Eiht and the homeys, Crooked I and R-Mean, LAW's second single is another banger for you and yours. This time LAW only needs "One Minute" to let you know he's packing that heat. Over a sonic sound scape provided by S-1 (Kanye's "Power"), this quartet of rhyme slingers leave no witnesses behind. Currently Law is preparing a mixtape with DJ Dub (Jay Electronica, Saigon, CRS) entitled "The Outbreak" to give you a sample of The Virus before it gets exposed to the world.

The Se7en Days of Ye: Day 7 - (Good A$$) Job

The day has fallen upon us, the time is here. Kanye West's fifth studio album is almost ready for consumption and in keeping with tradition, DJ Dub has concocted his special blend of treats from Mr. West. Making the seventh entry in this widely popular mixtape series, Style & Grace, Dub takes you on a musical excursion in the world of Kanye. After what the world thought was a Molotov Cocktail self-aimed at his career, he emerged stronger, better, smarter and faster.

Bringing out elements of the past to become part of the future yields the ultimate in listening for mixtape fans worldwide and Dub knows that first hand. Be sure to check out the various Dub Mixes on volume se7en as he employs inspiration from contemporary and classic artists like Drake, Black Moon, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Mos Def and more. Not to be outdone, volume se7en sports 26 tracks (27 with online bonus) and is a solid listen from beginning to end.

When asked how he could follow up the successful Jay Electronica "Victory" Mixtape, DJ Dub merely replied, "The only way I know how...beats, rhymes and creativity." True words spoken by the mixtape award winner & mixshow DJ (Music Choice's Rap Channel).

Se7en Days Of Ye: Day 6 - Songs

One day left!!! The unveiling of Volume 6 came at a pivotal time of Kanye's career. Having successfully sashayed into the realms of aristocracy's favorite pastimes, couture and dance music, Yeezy really had much to be arrogant about. Designing possibly the most expensive shoes by an MC for MCs, Ye really set the bar high for all of his endeavors at this time.



Style & Grace Volume 6 revealed Kanye as a lyricist of unsurpassed literary ability, adept at the techniques of alliteration and polyprosopon, able to create the most sincere poetry of his day, and all the while incorporating into his work a subtext critical of the current state of affairs. This volume sports a nice dance set at the end including a fun remix of Kanye's Workout Plan. Enjoy! One more day until part 7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Download Style & Grace Volume 6 Here

The Se7en Days Of Ye: Day 5 - Judges

Day feezy of Yeezy and I'm really glad you're taking this all like a true hip-hop head. This issue brings the funk back to the core ethics of my mixtape mantra, make old songs sound new. Volume 5, like Judges, is the continued story of 2 of G.O.O.D. Music's judges, Consequence and Kanye, and "their struggle against an oppressive foreign overlord". Who's the overlord you ask? The jerk with his hand on the trend-bending outlets of radio, video and tv that pushes through those damn dance tracks that hurt every MC's heart. This edition has interview footage from Kan and Cons, remixes by yours truly and special guests like Royce Da 5-9, Consequence, Talib Kweli and John Legend. Enjoy like always! 2 Days left!!!

Download Style & Grace Vol 5 HERE!

The Se7en Days Of Ye: Day 4 - 1 Chronicles

Similar to the book of first Chronicles, this mixtape is a solid listen as its one of the few editions of Style & Grace that is recorded from a true live mix. It was released prior to Graduation so you will hear that influence heavily throughout this mix. The focus was clearly on Ye's lyrics and special guests ranging from Ma$e to Roscoe P Goldchain (qTip Voice "where ya at"?). Trust this is no exception to the legacy of the Style & Grace series and is a great ride out. Enjoy!


Download Style & Grace Vol 4

The Se7en Days of Ye: Day 3 - 2 Kings

Volume 3 takes us to the South side of Chicago to tell the story of two of the city's native sons, Rasheed and Kanye. Deriving the theme from Richard Wright's classic novel, Native Son, this tape echoed the resurgence in Common's career as well as Kanye's confidence. The tape also features a myriad of guests ranging from Patti Labelle to John Mayer (before he was placed on hood probation...). Trust me, a good listen...Enjoy!


Download Style & Grace Vol 3 here

The Se7en Days Of Ye: Day 2 - The Exodus

As with any trial, you will be tested. This mixtape came at an odd time where the world was at war with itself and music was serving as a quiet escape for the crew. See what you think and enjoy day 2 of the Se7en Days of Ye.



DOWNLOAD STYLE & GRACE VOL 2 HERE

The Se7en Days of Ye: Day 1 - The Genesis

Kanye west has been at the forefront of this millenium's musical voice. Being able to go from backpack rapper to b-boy auto-Crooner is not a feat that many artists can lay claim to. After throwing a "molotov cocktail" at his career with the Taylor Swift incident, The Louis Vuitton Don has regrouped and has made a committment to evoke 100% hip-hop on the upcoming album, Dark Twisted Fantasy.

The rise to power has been archived on the Style & Grace series in its first six iterations. With various guests and themes, DJ Dub has captured the plight, struggle and victory from Ye's musical perspective.

Upon completion of Volume 7, Dub wanted to give all of Kanye's fan a treat and in turn has deemed September 23-September 30, the Se7en Days of Ye. Every day @ noon, from September 23-30, you can catch a link to download a volume of the Style & Grace series so by day se7en, you'll be ready for all that power.

After dropping Jay Electronica's well-recived "Victory" mixtape earlier this year, Dub decided to revisit one of his most popular and familiar mixtape series. People have been a fan of the Style & Grace mixtape series because of its showcasing of unreleased material and Dub's panache for remixing. They've been seen at all of your favorite sites like Vibe, The Smoking Section, The Source and more.

Okay Kids...

Here's how we're gonna do this. From September 23 to September 29, I will share with you the last six editions of this mixtape series that has documented a real movement in hip-hop. I'm calling it The 7 Days of Ye's.

Daily, starting thursday, I will up Volume 1 then 2 all the way up to volume 6 next Wednesday. Ending off with the debut of Volume 7 on Holy Thursday, September 30.

Labor Day: Stay Out Of The Water

Aight, another installment is on deck for your boy. For some reason, GQ planted the seed that I would want to watch the nonsense called "Pirahna 3-D". Unfortunately it continued to reinforce the stereotype of my disdain for swimming in lakes, oceans and rivers. What does that have to do with VOSS, Fiji, etc? Not a dang thing. I figure if a $7 bottle of water is a top seller, you might pay attention.

This means Fifteen...

I took some time out to attend a the niece of a friend's quincinera. I've been to debutante balls, beautillions, even a few barmitzvahs. Let me tell you, there has only been one other time I wished I had my rosetta stone game tight. The kids were so nervous that they were messing up the graceful entrance. Don't worry, the nervousness didn't stop there. It continued with dad who was so anxious that the waltz damn near turned into a two-step. The uncles came in and followed suit and 2-stepped right along following dad's model. Now, don't get it twisted I totally enjoyed myself. There was one major snafu, the dj. True, my friend asked me to do it and I declined. I wanted to actually enjoy myself for once. And here we are, seated watching the salsa train line go by. If there's one thing I have to remember is, its all in the hips. Right? Exactly. Its time for the open bar. Be right back.

Okay, sorry for the time lapse, open bar started and its only for an hour so I'm double fisting it now. Gotta get my face right or else it won't be a good party. Exactly. You know the steelo, I'm surprised there was no pre-party partying but I guess it might not be appropriate for a room full of high schoolers. Maybe I put myself on some sort of pedestal without warrant but sometimes my upbringing DOES come out and try to present itself. No I didn't grow up a heathen but, when its time to party holla at cha main man Dub Danger.

Speaking of Danger, When Dub is on Music Choice's Rap Channel...OMG, DANGER!!!

Technical Difficulties

Okay...this week, I'm going to speak to something that has been going on alot this year. What is the difference between having that chat with a friend about their habitual lying or a platonic friend who's been your romantic interest for some time now? The answer is none. The both require a great deal of aplomb when approaching the situation. Do you bust in straight up and lay all your cards on the table or plot strategically? As Dres and Mr. 9.5 said, the choice is yours. This rant will not provide a black and white answer to all of the quandaries that pertain to your heart but, hopefully you'll be able to gain some insight to get it done.

Recently I've been charged with having to make some really tough decisions, both professionally and personally. The two worlds require a great amount of analysis and one mistake could lead to a road of regret. Luckily I have a strong support matrix in both realms to offer their guidance in matters of the heart and head. What? No mentor? No successful people around you? Well, dammit this is your chance to find them. You need to keep someone who's doing well in your eye sights to keep you focused. A friend at an old job said, "if you want to get bigger, watch the biggest dude at the gym and see what he does.". Sure it sounds easy but it makes sense. That boss that's skyrocketed through the ranks, the friend that's already gotten engaged to a beautiful person...ask them what they did to be happy. Granted, what they did may NOT be word-for-word the secrets to your success but there are always jewels in the story. Its up to you to siphon them from the gold miners pan.

Now that you've read all of that, here's the musical treats!!!!

Super Mega Dope Slammin Dub Sack Friday So Good, Its A Day Early!

Okay Kids...

I was having a conversation with my colleague, Ambassador Rick, as we picked up on the Remix King, Sean Combs.



What I was admiring was not only does he remix his name, but also his label.

Lets think about it.

Bad Boy 90s-00s >>>>>> Bad Boy 2k10

Total >>>>> Dirty Money (replace the ugly one with Diddy, pow!)

The Notorious B.I.G. >>>>>> Rick Ross (sure the ghost writer is stepping up and the beats are correct but the Ghost of Christopher Wallace, he is not)

Black Rob >>>>>> Red Cafe (Hood Tested Hood Approved since 00?)

Lil Kim >>>>>> Nicki Minaj (Nicki did her enhancements early so you won't lose interest later)

50% Craig Mack + 50% Ma$e >>>>>> Jay Electronica (dont sleep, mase talked funny but he used to be murder mase...craig had a strong breakout that got eclipsed as well)

Puff Daddy >>>>>>> Diddy (add gold fronts, oil of olay, liquor, more crossover appeal and there you go)

Before he was the smiling renaissance man (of sorts), he was backing up Hot Dog (Chubb Rock's dancer) in Stacy Lattisaw's last video...ENJOY.



AND OF COURSE,

How could we have a Super Mega Dope Slammin Dub Sack Friday So Good Its A Day Early, without some new hip-hop treats?!?!?!

Dub Sack Fridays: Now Why See Edition

Okay...been pretty much a rough week in the hip-hop community with the passing of Guru. So I'm not going to add my two cents because we are all probably speculating the same thing.

So I am going to share with you something Gangstarr derived, one of my personal favorites. With the forecast of Nas & Damian's "Distant Relatives" en route, I'd like to go back to a grimier chamber of Nas, one that bathed in boom-bap, Dutch guts and Timberlands. So I present to you:

Dub Sack Fridays

Okay...

People have been asking me for a more consistent fix for that boom bap.

So I'm enstating Dub Sack Fridays...a new mix every weekend to get your mind right.

This week's Dub Sack is brought to you by Langston's poem,









"As I Grew Older"

It was a long time ago.
I have almost forgotten my dream.
But it was there then,
In front of me,
Bright like a sun--
My dream.
And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Between me and my dream.
Rose until it touched the sky--
The wall.
Shadow.
I am black.
I lie down in the shadow.
No longer the light of my dream before me,
Above me.
Only the thick wall.
Only the shadow.
My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!

Jay Electronica - Exhibit A trailer

Not sure if this is whats going to be coming but this joint looks incredible.
Yeah you got a rented mansion, fleet of cars, strippers, sorry, models, and the posse.
This video is looking like the antithesis of all that has gone awry with the culture.

JAY ELECTRONICA 'VICTORY' FROM FURIOUS STYLES AND DJ DUB

JAY ELECTRONICA 'VICTORY' FROM FURIOUS STYLES AND DJ DUB

Starting out as they mean to go on in 2010, long time brethren DJ Furious Styles and DJ Dub have concocted a mixtape from one of today's most anticipated MCs, Jay Electronica. Victory is not only a showcase of the New Orleans natives ability to control the mic but it is a wake up call to people who consider themselves lyricists. Jay Electronica is the epitome of an MC and this collection of tracks mixed by Justo winner DJ Furious Styles and the acclaimed DJ Dub (Child, Rebel, Soldier and Everyone Hates Chris) simply proves that Jay Electronica is carrying the torch for Hip-Hop right now.

"In the current state of music, an artist like Jay (Electronica) deserves the attention of anyone who even THINKS they like Hip-Hop. We're not saying that he's the savior but he's been working on the humble for years and Exhibit C opened him up to the world. World, meet Jay Electronica...support his victory for Hip-Hop." - DJ DUB

"I truly believe that everyman has a story and Jay Electronica's story is definitely the current soundtrack to Hip-Hop. He makes the impossible seem possible. Dub and I wanted to share his soundtrack with those that were unfamiliar. Let's welcome back the lyricists to Hip- Hop." - DJ FURIOUS STYLES
