De La Soul made history by going against the hardcore rap grain with laid-back rhymes, thoughtfully irreverent lyrics, esoteric sampling, and quasi-hippie attitude proclaiming the dawning of ''the D.A.I.S.Y. age'' (Da Inner Sound, Y'all). Along with A Tribe Called Quest, Queen Latifah, the Jungle Brothers, and Monie Love they dubbed themselves the Native Tongues posse. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/416 info@accesshiphop.com After doing his first album with Ice Cube's help, Del stepped out of his cousin's shadow to deliver one of the dopest albums of the 90's.

Five years later the unmistakable sound of his debut returns, but progressed, refined, and on an entirely new level. The album sees a familiar group of artists assemble, including singers Rahel, Tawiah, Fatima, Olivier St. Louis and Georgia Anne Muldrow. Recorded in a two-month window, and designed simply as a feel-good album, One of Many also sees Lau collaborate extensively with multi-instrumentalist Kaidi Tatham, whose legendary musicianship adds a new depth to already intricate productions.

There have been a lot of good, a few okay and others not so hot, but Pro Tools (which is referring to his mic skills) is definitely at the front of the pack! Always a fan favorite and one of the strongest members of the Clan, GZA drops everything on us all at once, deep metaphorical jewels, storytelling epics, morality tales, and the one creating the most buzz, the 50 Cent dis track! But that's nothing compared to the rest of the album and is really showing GZA just getting it off his chest, because Fiddy is yesterday's news, and there is plenty more out there wrong with the mainstream than just him these days. If there's one thing we can depend on, it's the belief that because Wu-Tang's fan base is world wide the message is always left with the people to spread the word. Their name still reaches the masses and the fire they've sparked in hip hop will never be extinguished.

Limited to 1000 copies.<br><br>Ngunga Yeti Fofa's five songs demonstrate The Malcouns' deft handling of musics from both Eastern and Western Africa alongside Western psychedelia, jazz and funk; the title track -- a swinging horn-lead highlife jam that would sound perfect next to the Ghanaian classics by the likes of K.Frimpong and Ebo Taylor --is a great representation.<br><br>For all intents and purposes, Karl Hector might as well be another nom-de-plume of Jay Whitefield (producer and guitarist for the Poets of Rhythm and the Whitefield Brothers) who, along with Thomas Myland and Zdenko Curlija, founded Karl Hector and The Malcouns in the early 2000s. Alongside Bo Baral, other members of the Poets of Rhythm and crack Munich-based session musicians, Whitefield, Myland and Curlija crafted nearly twenty tracks for their debut, Sahara Swing, an album that swung with influences from across the African diaspora. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/23400 info@accesshiphop.com Legendary New York emcee Kool Keith adds another chapter to his long career (Ultramagnetic MC, Rhythm X, Dr. Octagon, Big Willie Smith, Sinister 6000, Tashan Dorrsett), releasing a full length collaboration with longtime Memphis producer MR SCHE.<br><br>This album recalls Keith's successful transplant to the West Coast in the mid-1990's, when he recorded the classic ''Sex Style'' album and name checked Bay Area rising star E-40, among others, deviating sharply from the firm ''East Coast'' tradition he was instrumental in defining as a member of the Ultramagnetic MC's. This time Keith shares the spotlight with Mr. Sche, better known for work with ''Down South'' artists such as 8Ball, Al Kapone, and Immortal Lowlife. The pairing works, with Keith's leftfield references (tank tops, Samsung Galaxy phones, space travel, robots, invertebrates, Jesse Helms & Star Wars) meshing well with Sche's synth-infused, soulful, southern beats. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/23279 info@accesshiphop.com Newport Authority 2 is Marco Polo's new album in anticipation of his upcoming Port Authority 2, the sequel to his critically acclaimed 2007 debut LP.<br><br>''The Newport Authority 2 album was inspired by politics & industry bullsh*t that prevented this material from being included on PA2: The Director's Cut.

Combining as the Yatha Bhuta Jazz Combo this LP may be a surprise to followers of Onra, while Buddy Sativa will be known to some via his own 2011 jazz leaning LP ''Deus Ex Machina'' on Favorite Records. There they collaborated on their first jazz track, ''Indica''.

The rest of the LP was created in a similar vein - a drum pattern for tempo or a bassline for tone and layering instrumentation repeatedly on top. Mistakes allowed and encouraged! Spoken word from Brooklyn poet Aja Monet on ''The Time is Now'', otherwise it's an instrumental trip.<br><br>So Yatha Bhuta - as it really is, insight, a mix of experience and spontaneity, a LP not created for release, more a liberating, therapeutic break from their other oft constraining aliases. Jazz because they like it and not for the sake of it, a chance meeting with the late Mati Klarwein's son at an exhibition in Dublin, led to the icing on the cake as the record is beautifully housed by the artists ''Conceptual Tree'' painting. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/10533 info@accesshiphop.com Ah Yeah!
