Holla scholars.
For grizzled old heads like you and yours truly, stumbling onto a new artist that truly hits you is an ever elusive event. Shit, I still remember getting my copies of 36 Chambers, ATLiens, and Ready to Die for pennies in the mail offa that Columbia House catalog and having my wig blown back way back forever...when's the last time a total mind-fugg of rrrap awesomeness happened to you??
There is no chance for new favorite artists without random stabs into the heart of the indie Internet hip hop clusterfuck. That's why I'm posting a series of mixtapes sent to me by a cat named Sweeny Kovar (www.sweeneykovar.wordpress.com). According to son these are more like playlists full of dope ish rather than mixtapes, as the mixing is poor to non-existent. Whatever's clever. Haven't listened to 'em, maybe never will, but hidden gems look to abound here...I see some Royce the 5'9'', some J Dills, some Elzhi...right up the Fat Money's ole alley, dig? So peep and support. Son posted even more (older) mixes up on the aforementioned blog if ya'll still ain't satiated by these platters of fatter matter:
CDRadioFour: http://www.divshare.com/download/5792947-92f (featuring Jaylib's "Bonus Beat")
CDRadioFive: http://www.divshare.com/download/5852153-b37 (featuring Kev Brown, Black Milk, etc)
FreshSelect's very first mixtape: http://www.freshselects.net/freshselectsloosejoints
CDRadioSix: http://www.sendspace.com/file/bzzdzy (featuring spoken word by late, great Nuyorican poet, Miguel Pinero)
CDRadioSeven: http://www.sendspace.com/file/gna6fp
Cashusking & Blu- Angelic: http://www.sendspace.com/file/kcnooa
If anyone actually peeps the formulas, let me know if they're any good-- The Fat Money knows time is money, which makes my time fat. It moves slow and doesn't get far, I need more ears than I presently have. Spread some love...
