<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://afroliciousfunk.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/albumcover.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-195" title="albumcover" src="http://afroliciousfunk.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/albumcover.jpg" alt="" width="355" height="355" /></a></p>
<p>A musical genre away from their debut effort, Nicolay and Phontes sophomore album is quite an evolution in sound for the rapper Phonte (1/2 of the duo little brother). Don't pick up this album expecting the same mixture of hip hop/r&#38;b tracks as its predecessor, no you could call this album a full out R&#38;B record with the typical set up: Phonte with mic in hand and Nic on the boards. Up until now we've heard bits and pieces of Phonte's vocal capabilities in various tracks across his musical career (Zo! and Tig especially) but never as ear tingling scrumptious as the 11 harmonic-vocal filled tracks on Leave it all behind. Though he hasn't completely left his lyrical day job behind as tracks like "Something to Behold" still contain a hot 16 but, just don't expect half as many rap driven tracks as was on "Connected."</p>
<p>Not to give all the credit to Phonte, Nicolay also shines setting the tone and style for the album. The tracks range from down tempo and soft to an almost new age, house sound. Expect a little more of the synthesized, electronic sound of "Connected" plus some. The change in sound of the album may not be appreciated by all but none of the heart and soul or relationship themed melodies heard in their previous full-length have been left behind this time around. It's good music.</p>
<p>The album had an early digital release so buy it now on itunes or wait till the 14th for the official drop.</p>
<p>Track List+samples coming when i feel like</p>

<p>Man, this weekend has been nice. I needed a slow hip hop weekend to allow me to step away from the laptop, get some free time to myself, etc. Before I step out again, here goes another joint off the upcoming US/UK tape from DJ Semtex &#38; Joell Ortiz, <em>Pounds &#38; Dollars</em>, that I scooped from <a href="http://nahright.com/news/2008/10/11/giggs-joell-ortiz-hollowman-meets-joell-ortiz/" target="_blank">eskay's spot</a>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I'm reading all kinds of things about this diss, I heard Just Blaze produced it along time ago and somehow Uncle Murda got a hold of it and dropped a verse and leaked it. It seems Fat Joe is cool with and doesn't have a beef with Jigga.  Jay's verse is hot and we'll how this ends up!  Anyhow, here's the radio and studio version...</p>

<p>Whats up, I was at the apartment watching college football and listening to De La Soul this past Friday when I thought it would be a good idea to create a 90s hip hop mixtape.  So look for it in the coming weeks.  Will definately feature artists like LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, Digable Planets, Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Nas, Biggy, Jay-Z, A Tribe Called Quest, Common, Talib Kweli, Fresh Prince &#38; DJ Jazzy Jeff, Nice &#38; Smooth, &#38; Bone Thugs off the top of my head.  Will be available for free.  This for all my hip hop heads out there who have a special affinity for 90s hip hop.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">On the tech side, I have some software projects I am working on.  I am almost finished with the simple Tip Calculator for Android.  Will be working on some GPS for my Sony Ericsson W760i that allows one to use it as a GPS antenna.  The 2nd project is secret.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes</em>, by filmaker Byron hurt is one of the most refreshing pieces of real-life-documentarianism I have ever come across. He is a gifted Hip-Hopper, educator, artist and activist. </strong></p>

<p>And here is an interview with Byron Hurt discussing <em>Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats &#38; Rhymes</em>:<br />
<blockquote>Refreshing and enlightening conversation with filmmaker and activist Byron Hurt on his renowned documentary on male identity in hip hop "Hip Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes". The film deconstructs hip hop as it relates to African American culture and consciousness, and it illustrates the elements of violence, misogyny and homophobia that are often endemic in this cultural form. This conversation also engages on aspects of modern race relations, culture and the rise of inspiring new models of African American manhood, including Barack Obama.</p></blockquote>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>La fusión en el flamenco está de moda. Desde que Bebo Valdés y Diego El Cigala arrasaran con "Lágrimas negras" de repente hay un espacio para meter algún rasgado de guitarra con ecos de Andalusía por cualquier lado. Desde el Jaleo pop de Ricky hasta la rebeldía de la Mala Rodríguez, pasando por lo bohemio chiq de Chambao, el flamenco como que va con to. Hasta con soul lo están mezclando, y sino pregunténle a Pitingo, que tiene un cover de "Killing me softly" en "flamenco"... si la canción de los fugees, esa, en flamenco y vaya, se quedó más cerca de la palabra "interesante" que de "bueno" pero pues, no todo sale bien en la experimentación.</p>
<p>Mas entre los que se han tirado la maroma de seguir experimentando en un género que ya ha sido mezclado con la salsa, el jazz, el soul, el hip hop y el rock (no olvidemos el "como me acuerdo" de robi draco) llega <a href="http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2008/02/15/cultura/1203103537.html" target="_blank">La Shica</a>. Esta españolilla luego de diez años como bailaora en tablaos le dio un día con frenar un poco los tacones y someterle al cante, y válgame que ricura. Tien un flow que recuerda un poco a la Mala, pues la presencia del hip hop, los vídeos con una estética muy bien pensada y la imagen de la mujer fuerte, enardecida e irreverente está ahí. Pero La Shica tiene algo que a la Mala le falta: alegría, una cierta picardía simpática, no hay un flow de "yo soy de la calle y que rough soy". Esa picardía de su personalidad se permea en la música y hace que no se esté quieta, un momento es flamenco hip hop y de repente se integra un jammeo medio jazzeao para que finalmente se una a la rumba en eco de música brasileira, y porqué no, pop también que a final de cuentas a todos secretamente nos gusta Miguel Bosé (¡Bándido!). Todo esto hace que en vez de explotar una supuesta innovadora idea (oye por qué no mezclamos flamenco con ______llena el blanco_____?) se use toda la gama de posibilidades musicales. Esto hace también que La Shica (quien no es una bailarina que canta sino una bailarina y una cantante, ah?) no esté atada a una imagen particular (la que hace flamenco con ____) y que cuando merite simplemente hacer un bolero old school se lo tire y ya.  Aquí les dejo dos videítos de La Shica junto con el "killing me softly" de Pitingo al final, quien sabe y a ustedes sí los mata esa interpretación.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Manifestation Fredy Villanueva, invitation de Will Prosper de Montréal-Nord Républik</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://raymondviger.wordpress.com/category/dossier-montreal-nord/"><strong>Dossier Montréal-Nord</strong></a></p>
<p>Plusieurs jeunes vivant à Montréal-Nord et d'autres qui y entretiennent des liens très rapprochés avec la communauté de Montréal-Nord m'ont invité à une manifestation en l'honneur de Fredy Villanueva et dénonçant la brutalité policière.</p>
<p>Plusieurs membres et artistes de la communauté Hip Hop seront présents: Sans Pression, Dramatik et Imposs (Muzion), Dupuis, Cyrano de MTL, Diaspora, Le Voyou, Catburglaz, MFG, Nomadic Massive, Metazon.</p>
<p>Je reçois à plusieurs reprises un sorte de communiqué de presse sur les revendications qui animent cette manifestation suivi d'un texte pour une conférence de presse. Un texte similaire, mais pas identique se retrouve sur le Facebook de la Coalition contre la répression et les abus policiers (CCRAP).</p>
<p>J'ai plusieurs questions sur toute cette information que je reçois. Le texte est signé par une vingtaine d'organismes communautaires. Je décide de vérifier leur niveau d'implication. Grande surprise! Un des signataires dit ne pas avoir signé ce texte et ne pas être d'accord avec plusieurs points de cette manifestation.</p>
<p>Cela ne fait que remonter toutes une série de questions.</p>
<p>- Dans les messages reçus, je n'ai aucune idée qui m'a vraiment envoyé le message, ses intentions...</p>
<p>- Dans le message, je n'ai pas de vrais signataires, ni de coordonnés pour rejoindre les personnes derrière le message.</p>
<p>- Plusieurs organismes ne sont pas de Montréal-Nord.</p>
<p>- Est-ce que les organismes de l'extérieur qui viennent manifester dans Montréal-Nord ont pris contact et travaillé avec les organismes déjà implantés dans la communauté?</p>
<p>- Est-ce que les artistes Hip Hop impliqués dans cette manifestation sont au courant de toutes les implications de celle-ci ou est-ce que leur générosité à vouloir aider la communauté les y amènent sans trop savoir avec qui ils travaillent?</p>
<p>- Le texte dénonce le Journal de Montréal qui aurait:</p>
<blockquote><p>...semé la peur volontairement en diffusant de fausses informations sur la manifestation. C’est juste du sensationnalisme! Nous dénonçons le manque d’éthique journalistique du Journal, qui se plaît à discréditer une initiative politiquement juste et légitime. Pourquoi le Journal occulte les revendications? Pourquoi le Journal ne dit pas que la coalition est composée et appuyée par plusieurs groupes et individus de la communauté de Mtl-Nord? Pourquoi le Journal ment-il au sujet de nos intentions?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>- Tout le monde, sans discernement serait de gros méchants:</p>
<blockquote><p>Nous savons que la police, les autorités municipales et les vendus du communautaire entretiennent un climat de peur à Mtl-Nord</p>
</blockquote>
<p>- Sur le site de la <a title="coalition contre la r&#233;pression et les abus policiers, manifestation Montr&#233;al-Nord, Fredy Villanueva" href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=81387945194">Coalition contre la répression et les abus policiers</a> (CCRAP), les organismes communautaires se font pointer du doigt assez vertement, malgré que la coalition prétend qu'une vingtaine d'organismes auraient signé leur document:</p>
<blockquote><p>Nous ne tomberons pas dans la dénonciation facile des émeutes, comme l'ont fait quelques groupes communautaires en manque de fonds gouvernementaux.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Je suis convaincu de la bonne foi des jeunes qui vont manifester à Montréal-Nord ainsi que des artistes qui prêtent leurs noms et notoriété à cette cause. Mais je me questionne sur le déroulement de l'événement et les moyens de communications utilisés.</p>
<p>Dans une heure 15 minutes la manifestation débutera. D'autres nouvelles à suivre.</p>

So I'm chillin with my girl Asia from Poland and we were sitting around talking about last night's Stereolab concert.  She had never heard of Stereolab so we had a youtube marathon watching Stereolab videos.  After the next glass of Rum, she started playing all of these videos from her homeland and this is one that I really felt because she translated and the lyrics are really dope!  Enjoy!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>They say blood is thicker than water. The man "upstairs" once turned water to blood and I think he did it again when A07 was created...except we maintained ..<br><br><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3060/2931519917_3bd9a28cfc.jpg" alt="" /><br><br><br />
<strong>What:<br></strong><br />
Tonight we were on our way up to hollywood, again(lol). Word got down to us in San Diego that there was an event that deserved us just as much as we wanted them. The Real Recognize Real Party and <a href="http://vimby.com/">Vimby</a> 1 yr Anniversary party put on by <a href="http://www.crooksncastles.com/">Crooks n Castles</a>. So we rallied up 70% of the fam and headed north. Now if your in tune with the streets, then you know that this was the spot to be at tonight. The event featured headliners such as <a href="http://www.rocafella.com/Artist.aspx?id=6&#38;avid=124&#38;idj=201">Memphis Bleek</a>, <a href="http://clintonsparks.com/">Clinton Sparks</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thealchemist">Alchemist</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/glc">GLC</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/dizgibran">Diz Gibran</a>, and more.<br><br><br />
<strong>The Event:</strong><br />
<a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3006/2932351560_05edc0c3d0_o.png"><img height="134" width="200" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3006/2932351560_662923e877.jpg" alt="" /></a>We arrived in time to go get a bite to eat and talk about our plan of execution. And as always it was the same: Have fun and network. We walked in to a venue of well over 1500 ppl, from swinging women suspended 20ft in the air, bikes attached to the lighting systems. The music - by far had to be the illest. Not one top 40 song was played the whole night just mixes of east coast and west coast. They pumped everything from Mobb Deep to Tupac to Biggie to Tribe Called Quest. The Swagg level was through the roof and the atmosphere was unlike any other. Los Angeles is in itself something totally different from the San Diego that we at A07 are use to. Throughout the night we were praised for making the 2 hour drive just for this event.<br><br><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3038/2931532131_3968f237a1.jpg" alt="" /><br><br />
Alchemist was the opening Dj followed by Clinton Sparks. We were also given a suprised peformance by LMFAO and Memphis Bleek. Vimby[Waddup!] spread the love throughout the night as well by Giving the opportunity to showcase who we are. It was definitely a star studded event. Cant wait til the next one. If you missed out............your bad<br><bR></p>
