The Big Dance

Thought I'd drop a few links real quick like. The days of ignoring my blog continue, sad to say. The real world is taking all the airtime in ya boy's life, but that's a good thing, really. Long as the checks keep stacking, my blogging might be lackin'. Try not to hate me too much for it. In the meantime, peep the PSA from El Q The Invisible!!

--side note....People, what's up with all the shoplifting? Cut it out and get your hustle on, for KRS's sakes. If you can't say no, keep it under 401.00 and get a pair of 34 long, yao ming?!? You have been warned!!! Don't make a brother walk down to the Garden Level and arrest your trifflin' azz in front of your folkers. I'm not hatin, but if that's your hustle.....you need a new hustle!

Peace to the Lo Lifes!! (The last crew to do it with style!!)

2006

What's the word party people? The holidaze are finally over, and the new year is here. Hope you all had fun and made it on the new side in one piece. I'm still here, doing my thing, hustling day and night, trying to make a dollar outta fifteen pennies. So far it's working. For that alone, I am grateful. I am also grateful for all the new friends and connections I have made out here in sunny California, as well as my family and friends scattered all over the world for always being there. Hope this year bring us all happiness and blessings.

Things are moving along according to plan here at the compound. Topanga Soap Company continues to win new customers and the website has been tweaked and fine tuned. Our product line can now be found at The Dock-Downtown, LA Mart, online at The Beauty Drawer, as well as own home site. LiveStream LA.com came out the gate swinging and landed some hot video performance exclusive from RZA, Psycho Realm, DJ Muggs vs GZA. Big things are in store for the new year so stay tuned to the fastest growing music streaming website out of Los Angeles. Headshots Entertainment and Godz Inc. are both constantly in the lab, working on the next masterpiece. With the release of Prodigal Sunn's latest CD, "The Return Of The Prodigal Sun" in stores now, both P and B. Original have their eyes set on 2006 and are getting ready. B-Original released his mix CD, "Code Red Mixtape" this year and the next one is sure to be that fire! Be on the look-out for the Prodigal Sunn mixtape soon and the new website Tims And Brims.com! Yung Masta is continuing to work on his solo CD as well, and you can hear more of him on both mixtapes. If you don't know who Yung Masta is...check your "Return Of The Prodigal Sunn" CD again and do the knowledge. And my little jump off, Cuegen Management, looks ready to jump off this year, fully. You know I'll hit you with any news or info that happen to come my way, as usual.

So with all that, I think we're set. Let's get this party started. Big shouts to you to if your reading this. Hope this helps you feel better if your still wasted from last night.

Chinky Eyed Fridays Presents FunkDoobiest Live At The Knitting Factory


CEB Events continues to host the hottest underground hip-hop shows in Hollywood. From The GZA to Psycho Realm, Chinky Eyed brings the illest underground emcees to ever rock the microphone to the West Side! This last Friday was no exception as CEB had the funkiest one onstage!

The line was filled out the door and around the block and underground heads waited patiently for the stars of the night. Funk Doobiest, Sabac of Non Phixion in his first LA show, and Mr. Hyde of Circle Of Tyrants were in the house! This was a night of true underground sounds and old school favorites, and the crowd was ready to rock! I made my way through the line with the rest of the LSLA crew and hit the door and after a quick stop at the bar, we settled in and watched the show.

Mr. Hyde was the first to perform, and he tore it down early! The crowd was amped for the Circle of Tyrants emcee as he took the girls back to the barn of the naked dead! After that it was time for the Sabacolypse, as Sabac got on stage! The LA crowd showed him mad love as his first show in Los Angeles was off the chain. After terrorizing the crowd, it was time for the headliner, Funk Doobiest, to take it back to 93! Son Doobie and Raplh M the Mexican rocked the house and reminded the crowd at the Knitting Factory which Doobie they B! As Son skip around the stage, he went through his hit songs like “The Funkiest”, “I’m Shittin’ On Em”, “Freak Mode”, “Rock On” and of course “Bow Wow Wow”. I was trippin' for a minute, catching hip-hop flashbacks of me bumpin' "The Funkiest" up and down Lafayette Road waaaaaaaay back in the day in Tennessee! It was good to see Son Doobie and Ralph getting busy again, and the rest of the crowd seemed to feel the same way!

Hip-hop’s elite stopped by to show some love to Son Doobie as well. We managed to chop it up backstage with Mr. Hyde, Mellow Man Ace and 2Mex stopped by to show some love. We even bumped into Adrian Grenier, star of HBO’s hit show Entourage, backstage! Seems he was next door, performing with his bandThe Honey Brothers” while FunkDoobiest was onstage. He kicked it with us for a second and rocked a ill (and I do mean ill) beat box while Mellow Man Ace kicked a freestyle. It’s a classic Hip-Hop Hollywood moment, and we got the exclusive video clips and interviews at Live Streams LA.com! For pictures from the show, make sure you check out CEBEvents.com

All in all, it was another great night of hip-hop music brought to you by CEB Events. Make sure you check out the next show. Shouts to Swess, 501er, PickOne, Mr. Hyde, Sabac, Mellow Man Ace, Adrian Grenier, Son Doobie, Ralph and everyone that showed us love at the show!

CD Review: T.O.K. “Unknown Language”

The New York Times calls T.O.K. "the word’s greatest dancehall-reggae boy band" with good reason. With their blend of harmony and dancehall toasting, the young group continues to win new fans worldwide. With their past hits like “Gal You Ah Lead” & “Hit ‘Em Hit”, & “My Crew, My Dawg” paving the way, the Jamaican group has returned with their new CD, “Unknown Language”.

The CD has been in stores since June, and judging from the rave reviews it has gotten so far, several songs off the CD are sure to be on your favorite DJ’s play lists for a while.
The lead song by far is “Footprints” a song inspired by the classic Mary Steven’s poem. It has since become an anthem for anyone who has gone through tragedy. The song continues to be a radio hit nationwide, and the CD has a few other radio ready cuts up it’s sleeve.

Reggaeton/hip-hop star Pitbull teams up with the Taking Over Kingston crew, on “She’s Hotter”. “Tell Me If You Still Care” borrows the S.O.S. Band’s famous song for a nice R&B twist. “Hey Ladies” has more than enough energy for your club dance floor, while “Survivior” takes the same riddim Sean Paul rode on “We Be Burning”. “Gal You Ah Lead” is on here as well, in case you didn’t get it the first time around, as is the pure fire riddim of “Neck Breakers”. All in all, T.O.K. have not only taken over Kingston, but the entire world with this new one.

Final Verdict-T.O.K. “Unknown Language”= The official word in the new dancehall swing! Nuff respect!

RRG #15-It's A Celebration!



The holiday season is here party people! This week turkey sandwiches, football blowouts and pissed off Natives. Next month, maxed out credit cards and after holiday sales at Macy's (holla). Even if your enlightened and hate what the days REALLY stand for, make sure you take time out and be thankful for the good things you have in your life. Pause for a minute this week and thank God for waking you up today at least and giving us all a few days off! If you have to work this weekend, thank God for overtime, Xmas is around the corner.

I know I have tons to be thankful for this year. My regular readers out there know how much drama I've been through. As the new year approaches, I'm ready to set it off in a major way and show the West Coast how The Tennessee Hustler, NY Transplant does it!


Can you believe that my Canhead Records blog turned one year old yesterday!?! My site that started out as a way to kill time and post my rants, reviews, flashbacks of my previous musical life, experimental music tracks and New York notes, has evolved into...well, it kind of stayed the same. Just like it's owner, Canhead didn't change a cottdamn thing! If anything, the blog improved and refined some old habits. I was surprised by the results and reactions, and continued posting on my new journal/web magazine/favorites bookmark folder/mp3 dump. Soon the numbers started showing a increase in visitors. I re-discovered my love of writing and the old high school newspaper editor in me was awakened.

I found several blogs that I looked to for writing inspiration such as hiphopmusic.com(now playing Amadou & Mariam) , Hiphopblogs.com, Pro Hip-hop.com, Pyramids to the Projects, TofuHut.com, and a little site called Blogcritics.org. I began submitting some of my articles to them, trying to sharpen my sword and build my confidence in writing. Blogcritics.org was extremely helpful and I found myself reviewing artists releases. Celebrity interviews were soon included, favorites list were noted down, blog writers were emailed introduction letters and some remain in touch, premier and concert tickets were mailed cross country and I found myself back in the mix....almost.

Then the real world came crashing in as my personal life turned ugly for a minute. After I re-adjusted and re-located, the site continued to be anchor in a very turbulent period for me. Slowly, things began to stabilize in my personal world, and the blog continued to grow. Now in Los Angeles, I began to take Canhead very seriously and reached out to others who had a similar vision. Now, as the blog hits it's first year, it's faced with it's next growth spurt....the relocation, renaming and re-launching of a bigger, better and deffer Canhead.

That's right folk, if everything goes according to plan, Canhead will cease to exist in this present form. I plan on writing more for Live Streams LA.com and focusing on the big streaming picture, as well as stepping up the freelance journalism game. Plus, I am dying to set this site off the way it should be. I mean, Blogger.com is ok, but it's far from the real deal. You all have been here for a full year reading my bs(blog story), you deserve the best site you can get.

You will still find all kinds of funky fresh, liberal, intelligent and stupid dope manuvas here! I'll keep hitting youz up with the usual mp3 or two, weblinks, event announcements, nekid girlie pictures and political conspiracy theory propaganda that you can handle....if your still feeling me. Basically, change is coming. Stay tuned!!

So yeah, that's it. Happy Thanksgiving...Happy Birthday to the Canhead Records blog....and a Happy Festivus for the rest of us. Have some cake, be careful with the punch, it's spiked and not with the weak stuff either! It's a celebration bitches, enjoy yourself!

Here are a few of the pages that seem to get the most repeat hits at the site and some others that I thought were really, really good. I have some real posts that I'm working on for you so stay tuned.

I'll holla!

GZA, DJ Muggs,Swollen Members & Self Scientific Live On Stage

The line stretched clear down the block Sunday night, as some of Los Angeles’ hip-hop faithful and top notch emcees waited for the show to begin. Deep downtown, the jump-off was about to jump off at The Grand. DJ Muggs vs. GZA “Grandmasters” album release party was underway, and hundreds of hip-hop heads were on line early, ready to hear the Wu Gambino and the Soul Assassin do their thing. Also scheduled to rock the house that night were Swollen Members, I Self Devine, and a handful of emcees and surprise guest. As the security barked at the line and cleared the sidewalk, I walked up to the door, greeted by the low rumble of the Swollen Members tour bus that was parked next to the club. After meeting with the Live Streams LA.com crew, I stepped into the arena, ready for a night of hip-hop heavyweights.

DJ Muggs and GZA have been on the grind promoting this new CD. The two have been on the road, hitting Washington, Colorado and ripping shows from San Fran to San Diego. This was my third time seeing the show, but it was clearly the hottest performance of the tour. The shows at The Knitting Factory’s were tight, but the size of crowd at The Grand was one of the most impressive turn outs that I’ve seen. The place was packed, and all the emcees that took the stage that night had one of the best crowds they could ask for. The Chinky Eyed event was about to jump off!

Between running back and forth with the LSLA crew, trying to catch interviews, I managed to catch most of the show. Dumbfounded, The Crux (with the ill mariachi band intro killing it!!) , L.O.R.D., and various members of Project Blowed hit the stage and ripped shit, getting everyone ready for the main act. No doubt about it, this was a hip-hop crowd! Looking down from the balcony, I saw a few cats break into windmills and backspins and thought LSLA mastermind Steve M was about to get busy with the pop locks!

When Swollen Members was about to hit the stage, they went nuts, screaming “Swollen…swollen….swollen” until the Canadian mic barbarians stepped up. SM blessed the crowd with their hits and brought the movement to Los Angeles. Phil Da Agony and Planet Asia took the stage with them as well and the set was a good look for the Battle Axe representatives.

The headliners shook the building, as the “Grandmasters” song intro welcomed DJ Muggs and GZA to the Grand stage. Dreddy Kruger and Just Allah worked their magic and ran through several of GZA’s hits and cuts off the new album. Wu fans were in the spot as usual, throwing up their W’s and reciting lyrics from some of GZA’s classic darts. GZA finally closed the show and hung around onstage, showing love to the crowd, shaking hands, and reaching out to the people for a minute before hit bounced.

All in all, it was a great night for hip-hop in Los Angeles. The spirit of the “Unity” parties was definitely in the house, as everyone was showing love and paying respect to Bigga B and entire Unity crew. Is it possible that we may see Unity parties in LA again in 2006? You’ll have to stay tuned for that, to see catch some highlights from the night, make sure you check out the videos!

Peace to everyone who came out and made it one hell of a night. Shouts to Swezz for another top notch event, and Fatty for the Subway Scooby Snacks!

Grandmasters Holla!

I logged on to this chess site to brush off some of my old moves and found this..

'Chess is so crazy, I could do a whole album on chess'17.11.2005 What happens when you take one of the greatest rappers, and put him in a recording studio with a producer and a chessboard? The album “Muggs Vs. GZA: Grandmasters”, that's what. It's a groundbreaking CD that blends Hip Hop and chess. Interview with GZA and a fascinating video.

Rap is outta control! Hip-hop videos on the front page of a chess geek website. That's whats up.

See you at the show and holla at a scholar if you hear me!

Really Really Good 14-The Road To Casablanca


~Slang Editorial
It’s out there, somewhere in the internet’s deepest nook and crannies, the mutant virus waits, disoriented, hungry and exhausted. As the chat rooms and email groups buzz their dizzying extended log on entries, our hero waits for the real street news crisis to begin. I’m not sure if any of us will ever be the same again after the new style fly viruses are airborne. To be clear, the old guard is moving his cyber tent, yet again. Soon the world will bear witness to his telekinetic power and strength. For now, our hero searches on, looking for the perfect link to post before the rival crews lay hand to them and murk up their shine!

“The Boondocks” television series has come out the gate swinging. The show is already taking shots from haters and PC hypocrite types nationwide. I can’t wait to see what Huey(Regina King?) says next! You can download the first episode here, but you didn’t hear that from me!
