Rob Base owned the summer of 1988. The music was undeniable If there's a Mount Rushmore of early foundational Harlem recording artists, he's on there without question. The physical is temporary but the music is eternal. RIP Rob Base. 🕊️
Un día como hoy pero hace 50 años Roy Ayers lanzó Everybody Loves the Sunshine, es maravilloso que muchos vivieron esa magia hace décadas y llegó a nosotros en forma de Hip Hop.
El viaje del groove en el tiempo es la historia más bella jamás contada.
"The Bottle" by Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson, 1974.
Off Winter in America on Strata-East. Brian Jackson's flute carries this one, a Caribbean groove that became an underground hit and has been sampled over 70 times since.
KASE2 was a far superior MC and rapper and poet than nearly all those who were rocking and rapping and RECORDING and PERFORMING Rap and Hip Hop in his era.
This is a man who had only one arm kind you, he rapped constantly and even his normal talking was in the style of rhyming and inventing slang as he spoke but it was just how he was…
He was a star in Graffiti. An undisputed King of Style he was best in Blackbooks amongst the greatest on train exteriors his tags dominated interiors of trains and his wall work and later even gallery work was intergalactic space age computer rock God Body of Art 🖼 nonpareil
HE WAS A LEGEND before his time and he’s still one of the greatest no one has NEW Graffiti better than his body of work. His body leaving here didn’t leave a space for anyone to come and usurp his throne.
So imagine what he could of done rapping and rhyming if he’d chosen. Besides being left aside and disrespected and not earning a living off any music commodification because he’d have that thing that a lot of us have
TOO DOPE to make it past all the gatekeepers therefore relegated to an underground status mainly hated on or unrecognized by alleged peers - so they could bite his shit add some wack juice that they have patented and voila they would be the one getting paid of his image and style and by doing an imitative off brand version of what he simply personified.
It’s okay to rap rap rap all the time!! And be GREAT in life doing something else. 90% of y’all can revert to hobby rap ON TODAY and stop forcing friends and family and a couple sycophants who enjoy to glaze your shit to spend good money on your rap Reggie.
I know most of you and you’re GREAT humans with amazing 🤩 rockstar tendencies but professional rap is not your ministry Little Daddy!!! DO YOUR GREATNESS and clear the lane for MCs who at this time have no room to race on the Autobahn because you’re in it driving slow Beloved.
You’re stealing your own joy and blocking your own Blessings. There’s a place for you to be THAT ONE if you can let this go and envision the true pathway for your glory your relative happiness AND financial success for you and yours.
Word to the undisputed King of Style the freshest with the best KOS - KASE2!!

Un día la BBC le pidió a Rage Against The Machine omita los insultos de "Killing In The Name" y confiaron en que Zack De la Rocha les iba a hacer caso.
Entraron como un caballo...
Who remembers when all you needed was a pen, a notepad, a tape, and your radio? Before streaming. Before downloads. This was the process. Your cassette deck would chew the tape, and you’d rewind it by hand with a pen like it was second nature. If it
Low-key, HipHop is the one genre that requires you to have serious knowledge about everything. From cars to fashion, music, movies, politics, history, sports, books, places, events, even art.
If you're not tapped in, the bars will most likely fly over your head.
That's why rap is for smart people. 😉 😉
