East vs West (New Singles) - Killah Priest, Sene vs. Crooked I, Ya Boy + Bonus Track: East Flatbush Project

Now in no way is this meant to create any beef/tension...I just came across four pretty dope new singles today...two from the east and two from the west...so I figured Id post em all up together...click artist to download

West

Now how have these two not blown up!!! I mean ya, the big on the westcoast, but these two MC's are two of my favorite gangsta rappers out rite now...Ya Boy, reppin the bay & Crooked, reppin L.A.

East

Now Sene is similar in my mindstate...although he from BK...how has this dude not made it?? He has recently gotten together within one of LA's brightest young stars (Blu) and made some great music and there will be more to come.  Killah on the other hand has been doin it for awhile now...he was doin it back with the early Wu Tang.

BONUS TRACK
Ok so Im adding this because as I was making this post my itunes started playing, A Day in the Life by East Flatbush Project...pretty dope song that I was unfamiliar with, so I thought I would share.

S1 (of Strange Fruit Project) - Supa Fly (Rmx) f. Blu & Inspectah Deck

Anytime you can bring on of the greatest and upcoming stars of the L.A. underground (Blu) and put him together with one of the members of the most recognizable hip hop groups of all time (Inspectah Deck of Wu Tang) you are guaranteed to have a hit on your hands.  DJ S1 of The Strange Fruit Project did just that.

Random New Tracks - Ludacris f. T.I. + Ne Yo + Large Pro + Knux + Freddie Foxx f. 2Pac + Hired Gun

Ok so instead of posting each single of the day individually...I decided to do it all together, because Im lazy, but also so it doesnt take up to much of ya time looking thru each post...but mostly because Im lazy. CLICK SONG OR ARTIST TO DOWNLOAD!

A new single from Luda's upcoming album/mixtape...not really sure...two of ATL's finest on this one.
Ludacris - Wish You Would f. T.I.

So evidentally this track was supposed to be on Freddie Foxx's, Crazy Like a Fox Album, which was released in 1994, but it was unreleased and just now hit the internet?? Anyway it features Pac, so I had to get it.

Yall know how I feel on R&B...hit or miss for me...this one is a hit.

Two more tracks from Large Pro's upcoming album, Main Source (dropping September 30th).

I was unfamiliar with the Knux, but Im liking these tracks...pretty original and catchy...Bang, Bang is real dope...check it out.

It seems the current trend is rappers speaking up about politics (or againt G W Bush, however ya wanna look at it).  A lotta people are offended by the lyrics in political hip hop...I LOVE IT! Whether you agree or not, we live in a country with freedom of speech and this is no different then someone on television stating their opinions.  I also believe that when rappers speak out on real issues it touches a whole new audience that would otherwise probably not give an *ish about what is going on in the world around them...it is raising awareness...and that to me is what it is all about!!

The Game - Superman

Another leak from The Game's upcoming album, L.A.X.  Personally I cant wait much longer for this album to drop! Well at least ya dont have to wait any longer for this track!

PREVIEW/DOWNLOAD

Custom Made - Original Dynasty (ALBUM DOWNLOAD) + Beautiful (Video)

Custom Made has been getting a lot of exposure via the internet over the past few months.  Their highly acclaimed debut album, Original Dynasty, earned them a spot on Hip Hop DX's DX Next list.  They are constantly mentioned in the discussion of the new west movement.  Although they are from Los Angeles many of their tracks remind me of an early Wu Tang Clan.

Custom Made - Beautiful End (Video)

Jake Lefco - Comfort Zone (Video)


The song for me is just ok...but the video is very creative and well done...its worth a quick look.

Dogg Pound - This Is How We Live (Video)


Another video from Kurupt and Daz.  The video doesnt actually start till about 40 seconds in...before that its just Snoop, Daz and Kurupt acting a fool.

Pete Philly & Perquisite - Mystery Repeats

It frustrates me when people fail to open their minds to hip hop internationally.  The hip hop culture has opened so many eyes worldwide and thus has created so many different types of hip hop and culture.  Pete Philly & Perquisite having been doing their thing for a long time in Amsterdam and have been holding it down for the Netherlands.  This is one of my favorite tracks from the duo, so I am glad they finally made a video for it.  Check it out...

Here are a couple of video's from Minnesnowta's own Doomtree.  The first video (Drumsticks) is very creative and semi-comical, but is also a very dope song.  Anyone else noticed that Minneapolis is holiding it down with the Indie Hip Hop in 07-08?  Big ups...

UPCOMING ARTIST SPOTLIGHT #1

After listening to the Sound Sketch album, Sketched In Stone, I felt like I stumbled across a diamond in ruff.  Sound Sketch is made up of emcee's TreaZon & D Man with Beatwize on the productions.  This is a talented crew people...so don't sleep on it!  With as much music as I listen to it isn't very often when I come across an album that I have no prior information on, no background, nothing...and am totally blown away.  In fact, the last album that I went into not knowing what to expect and came out totally stunned, the way I feel about this album, was the Kidz In The Hall, School Was My Hustle.  And then it hit me...these albums are very similar in the way that they take soulful and mellow almost jazzy beats mixed with uplifting, conciouness & intelligent lyrics that say something and are revelant. Sketched In Stone continues to get better everytime I give it a spin and will always be one of those albums that I continue to draw back on...digging it up whenever Im in the mood for a smooth mellow album that makes me think.  

The first artist I wanted to spotlight on my UPCOMING ARTIST SPOTLIGHT is Beatwize, the man behind the beats of the Sound Sketch EP and Sketched In Stone album.  I got in contact with Beatwize thru my man Heaps (thanks bro) and he agreed to do exclusive interview on Hip Hop University and offer you a couple tracks that he has done, including a few originals and few remakes/blends.  Beatwize is a very talented producer and also a down earth cat who shares the same interests I do...get good hip hop music into the hands of the people that want and appreciate it.

__________________________________________________________
Here is a biography to get you a little further acquainted with Beatwize and what he is about.

Hailing from Mississauga (West Toronto), Canada, Beatwize's love for music started at a very young age.  Wheter it was blasting music from his boom box or playing the piano, by age 10 Beatwize was literally addicted to the world of music.

By the age of 13, Beatwize became interested in the guitar.  And that's when it all really started.  He began using Virtual DJ and Adobe Premiere and began making Hip-Hop blends under the alias DJ Dimez.  As the years passed by, Dimez became a well know DJ not only locally, but began to gain some word on the internet from various sites.  This was just the beginning.  Early 2006 rolled around and DJ Dimez decided it was time to take another step in music.  He began making beats.  His first attempt was definitely a failure and he decided to stick to blends.

Nearing the end of 2006, Dimez decided it was time to give production another shot.  This time was different.  With increased musical experience and better resources, DJ Dimez began making beats with his own style and persona.  With this change in talent, Dimez decided it was time to make a change in his name.  He switched his name to Beatwize and began producing.  Success was at Beatwize's table and so began his inspiration to make something more out of his talent.  Beatwize's production style consists of jazz, soul, R&B, and rock (classic and modern) sampling with mellow, soulful and smooth themes.  It has been compared to the styles of J. Dilla, Kanye West, Nujabes, and Just Blaze.

Next year Beatwize will be going to the University of Toronto for the Computer Science program.  But not to worry, Beatwize plans on doing music forever no matter how much money he makes from it or how many people know him; whether he does it in the background or makes it his full career.  Beatwize is here to stay - watch out!

__________________________________________________________
I also wanted to add a little exclusive to this interview...so Beatwize & I exchanged a few thoughts on hip hop.

HIP HOP UNIVERSITY:  Beatwize whats good man?  What you been up to?
BEATWIZE:  Hey man!  Just doing work nowadays man.  School, music, and life...just balancing it all out y'know? But I'm loving it.

HHU: Good to hear man.  So lets start off with the basics.  Who would you consider to be some of your influences in hip hop?
BEATWIZE: My major influences have to be J Dilla, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Blu & Exile, Shad, and Nujabes.  Otherwise, just all the jazz/soul hip hop artists and producers have always been major influences for me.

HHU:  Who would you consider your favorite artists of all time, currently and who are some artists you have worked with?
BEATWIZE:  My favorite artist of all time has to be J Dilla.  His music was the reason I really got into production.  But at the moment, it has to be Nujabes, Blue, and Shad.  Others include Shinsight Trio, Surreal, Sound Providers, and Move.meant.  As far as artists Ive worked with, TreaZon & D Man (Sound Sketch), Threatz, Fate L, Achilles, and Nero.  But, my favorite has to be TreaZon.  His style is really fresh and all of his tapes bring something different to the table.  Not to mention he's always putting in work, never quits on his music.  You have to respect that if nothing else.

HHU:  I really love the Sketched In Stone album, tell me a little more about TreaZon & D Man?  How do yo guys know each other?  How did the whole project come together?
BEATWIZE:  Thanks, it's probably some of my best official work so far in that album.  Both Treazon and D Man are from Cleveland and are together known as Strategics.  With another dude named Threatz, they make the LP Soldierz (Lyrically Prepared).  The next Sound Sketch will be us three and Threatz as well.  During the making of our first two projects, Threatz was on a long hiatus in rapping, but now he's back and better than ever, so we'll definitely be making better music next time around.  We all met online on a forum a few years back, but about a year ago we started working together.  The Sound Sketch ideas was built by me and TreaZon around last October and everything just came into place within a month with the EP.  We got a lot of praise for it, so us three decided to make another one - Sketched in Stone.  This one got even more praise, so I'm excited to see what will happen in the future.

HHU:  The Internet is obviously having a major impact on music in general, do you feel it is helping artists get their work out to a bigger audience or is it holding back the game thru fewer record sales and easier access?
BEATWIZE:  I feel that the internet has done a lot for indie artists.  It gives a chance for the listerner to get a full view of what the artist is providing to the audience and what they are trying to appeal to.  And I don't think anyone can say anything about internet leaks after that Lil Wayne album.  I'm not a fan, but a million in a week after it leaked a week earlier?  I think it alone ruled out all misconceptions of internet publicity and promotion together.

HHU:  Where do you feel the state of hip hop is these days?
BEATWIZE:  Oh man, if I had a penny for every time someone asked me that question.  To be honest, I'm not angry or disappointed nor am I happy.  People keep saying that hip hop is at it's worst, or that hip hop is dead when they don't even realize that this is what hip hop has been from day 1!  Its all about having fun with your music and expressing something...whether it be through deep lyrics or dance.  I see hip hop like a language with many dialects.  You can't hate one person for speaking English a certain way, so why should you hate someone for making their hip hop music a certain way?  I'm going to quote one of the pioneers on this - "Hip hop will constantly keep re-inventing inself." Those are the words of Grandmaster Flash - one of the originators of the whole culture.  I don't think anything else need to be said except - accept and embrace the difference and do you.

HHU:  What projects can we find you on and what do we see in the near future from Beatwize?
BEATWIZE:  I have numerous projects already out.  I have 7 blend albums, 4 full-production albums, and a few stray productions on different albums.  In terms of blends, I have two under the alias of DJ Dimez (The Blendmaster Vol. 1 & 2) and five under my current alias of Beatwize (BlendWize Vol. 1-5).  My productions so far have mostly been with groups.  I have one album out with emcee Fate L (Theory of Truth) under the group name Part-Time Prophets.  My other group is Sound Sketch with emcees TreaZon and D Man.  We have two projects out - Sound Sketch: The EP and Sketched in Stone.  We plan on making more, but I can't really say when; we're all working on solo projects to get our name out more, so when we all feel we're ready, we'll start on a new project.  The last production album is ReWize, a collection of 9 remixes produced by me.  I also have a best-of productions album called DIY.  Cop that if you want a summary of my best produced tracks! For future projects, I really can't say.  I'm making more and more music daily, so sooner or later I'll start on a project.  At the moment I'm on a hiatus.  I don't want to give out too much information, but things are happening in the background.  So don't worry...Beatwize will be back and better than ever when I come back.

HHU:  I really appreciate you taking some time out to give me a few minutes and tell me about Beatwize and what you've been doing.  Keep doing you man.

__________________________________________________________
Beatwize was also kind enough to allow me to post a few songs off the Sound Sketch album plus a few other tracks that he has graced the beat on and also a few blends that he has put together...trust me people you are doing yourself a favor by checking out some of Beatwize's work.
