Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire - Lost In Translation
Been listening to this since it released yesterday and dont plan on stopping anytime soon.
"Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire comes with a slow drunken master delivery on Lost In Translation, he drops song after song that combines the grittiness of NY with a soundtrack that weaves in and out of noisy, experimental bangers. These are songs that remind you of the heyday of experiential NY rap while occasionally throwing in random references to Marvel comics and American Ninja to put the whole shit in perspective. Basically, these joints sound like the time you saw a Mexican dude and a Chinese dude arguing in Spanish while a garbage truck backed up and someone drove by blasting the bass line of “Grindin.” You know Thursday night on Flatbush Ave.
With production from cats like El-P and Necro the album knocks pretty hard while eXquire lays out tales of waging a war of attrition with his liver, fucking horrible women, pissing in between subway cars, staying up way too late and eating at off brand chicken places. If that doesn’t encapsulate the life of mad heads in NYC then we’ve finally lost the war against Guilliani’s Disneyfication of the city. " -Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire Bandcamp"

Charles Mingus
Can't mention Jazz without mentioning my personal favorite Charles Mingus. The man is ridiculously talented on so many levels. But please, listen for yourself. Heres "Summertime" by the great Charles Mingus
Horace Silver
Horace Silver is in my opinion, one of the best Jazz artists/pianist/composers of all time. A true living legend. Here are a couple from him. "The Tokyo Blues" & "Blowin the Blues Away"

Manhattan Murder Mystery
Manhattan Murder Mystery is absolutely nothing new but when I first came in contact with this band, it was at a free show in some cafe (no hipster), but ever since then i've been hooked. I love everything about this band and they sound even greater live. Here are a couple of their songs. "Trailer Trash" (which they did live in a Metro Station) and "Parking Lot".
Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie
If you're from Cali, chances are RHCP is one of your favorite bands of all time. And if youre like me, you couldn't wait for the two year hiatus to be over so you could hear something new from them. Well the time has finally come! Even though the band is without the legendary John Frusciante, the newly installed Josh Klinghoffer and the rest of the Chili Peppers still managed to put something out that long time fans can truly enjoy. The album, "I'm With you" is scheduled to drop August 29, 11 so support them and KOP that. My copy is already on pre-order.
