Jake One is a producer on the G-Unit label, but has done production for De La Soul, Common, and Gift of Gab among others. He's releasing his own album featuring his production and guest appearances by quite the arsenal of MC's including Brother Ali, MF Doom, Freeway, and Royce da 5'9. And oh yeah, it's being released on Minneapolis' very own Rhymesayers Entertainment record label. There are a few tracks available for download. Check em out and then don't sleep on the album.

Ra The MC = Dope. I don't know much about her, but I picked up on her from hypetrak.com whilst looking for free mixtapes that I could listen to at work. She's apparently relatively new and real good. Cop the mixtape here:

It's taken me a long time to warm up to MF Doom, but I've finally come around. There's still a lot of his stuff I can't stand, but since the great Dirt Mc'Girt is no longer with us I need to get my sloppy, stoned out hip hop fix from another source. Enter: Metal Fingers. He's got a mixtape out which features some of his own stuff (including his unreleased track off the aforementioned Jake One album), some friends and some remixes. This one gets the Mr. Ulysses nod of approval. You can get that one here:

If you listened to music in the 90's, you should really check out this mixtape:

and finally, just for fun, here's a song that I listened to multiple times daily last week, and remains one of my favorite music videos of all time
Big ups to Hypetrak.com. I'm out.
