Dead Kennedys vs Gil Scott Heron - "Revolution Uber Alles"
via youtube.com
Impressive stuff.
... there's no such thing as too much Beastie Boys. A fine (edited) megamix by Z-Trip. The full version is here: http://ztrip.bandcamp.com/
I've let the ould blog slide of late, due to a number of factors. No doubt it'll slide again after Elvis is born, but I'll actively try to keep this updated til then.
Anyway, this is a song I've loved for years, but, for some reason, I didn't know who sang it. I heard it at work today and remembered what a cracking song it is. Enjoy!
I've been thinking of doing another mix since my Best of 2010, but time, and circumstances, conspired against me. So here, slightly later than I had intended, is my new mix.
I've been reading a lot about hip-hop lately (thanks to some excellent books I got for Christmas), and am rediscovering the stuff I grew up with. This mix is made up of stuff from the mid-eighties to the mid-nineties. It's the stuff that reminds me of first discovering hip-hop, as well as some stuff from the period I missed until later on.
So, anyway, enjoy the beats.
Peace.

I HATE Andie McDowell. I enjoy a rant, and need little encouragement to start one. I read a lot. I overthink things. I watch too much telly. All of this may become apparent from my posts. Don't say you weren't warned.
