SBI - Vulnerable (Pharrell Williams / Timbaland / Magoo)

SBI (Surrounded By Idiots) is Pharrell Williams, Timbaland & Magoo who were working on a colabo back in the 90s. They recorded several tunes, none of which were ever officially released (for one reason or another).

This is definately the best one I've heard to date... fuck... Just listen to the instrumental on this joint...

SBI (Surrounded By Idiots) - Vulnerable

This is quite simply... "THE SHIT".

Sigur Ros - Sé Lest

Dang... I almost got caught sleeping... a friend of mine has been talking about the new Sigur Ros album Takk since it was released a few weeks ago and I finally got around to iTunesing it. and fuck this shit is geeewd.

I mean I've always been more into that do a laddle of heroin and/or slice your wrists style of "rock" music anyway... and fuck this is some of the prettiest suicide music ever.

Sigur Ros - Sé Lest
from Takk (EMI) 2005

Definately their best work since Agaetis Byrjun... if not better... Buy the cd... Go see 'em live... maybe even buy a T-shirt or razor.

Seymour Bits - Free (Klakson) 2004

Seymour Bits - Bonparapara Attack... This 12" released on Klakson in 2k4 is a goddamn electro funk stomper... 4 tracks of ill ill shit. Some vocal some on a straight up electro tip like "You Must Be the Bass" but both sides A and B are on point.

Peep it...

Busta Rhymes Feat. O.D.B. - Where's Your Money (Instrumental)

Who produced this?

Nas - Purple (Instrumental)

baaaack at dat azz... and lemme just say Thailand was the shiiiiaaat... Bangkok is one hell of a dope city, with peeps from all over the world, living, working, playing together. Oddly enough, I didn't bump into any Americans the entire time (yaaawn). The music scene... like the city... i think is still finding itself... but is very much on the up and up. Hip hop is the thang over there right now... oddly enough, I bumped into a Hip Hop DJ I met at this year's Music Conferance in Miami...

Music makes the world a small place indeed.

Anyway... I thought it would be appropriate to post the tune I listened to the most during the trip... and I'd have to say this is the one... laid out on the beaches of Koh Tao bumpin' dis as the sun goes down...

It doesn't get much better...

Nas - Purple (Instrumental)

Shiaat... i gotta post the album version too... check Nasir's flow on this one... on some ill style advanced shit...

Nas - Purple
from the Lost Tapes (2002)

Proper.
