Buy The Album When I Drop It: Idle Mind - Whatupvern (Produced by Kil)

 

To be honest, I can't tell you how long I've known my bro Vern but it seems like we've been rocking with each other since day one. We've always connected here and there on music. Any time a black man lost his life to police brutality, we'd always swoop and and drop a banger speaking on that situation. If fact we've done so many of those jawns we could drop an EP with just those songs! This past April I was gonna be out in Cali for a week and we were gonna link up and record a song and shoot a video since I was out in his neck of the woods, so I sent him about 40-50 beats to pick ONE from but that one turned into 3 which quickly turned into 5.

Apt. 5B Hosted by Kil: Chopping It Up With Crooklyn Dodger #2...OC

For this week's episode of my podcast The Corner Radio we're chopping it up with one of the ILLEST lyricist EVER Crooklyn Dodger #2...OC! O drops SO many jewelz on this ep it's stupid! Everything from how the Time's Up beat was originally for Pharoahe Monch, how he linked up with Primo, how nobody in the DITC crew wanted to use the sample O used for Dangerous, his story about the night Big L died, how him and Big L were working on an album together to his love and appreciation for the DOC, how he wanted the beat "The Message" that Lord Finesse gave to Dr. Dre for Jewelz, how he was originally on Pete Rock' "Tru Master", how Primo didn't like the beat for "My World", how Lords of the Underground pushed him to make his stage show doper and O tells the masses what album is doper...Word Life or Jewelz! Plus we chop it up about his new album that just dropped "Same Moon, Same Sun!" And one of the DOPEST things about this interview was O just came out the booth in the studio to chop it up with us so throughout the interview you've got Showbiz and Panchi from NYG'z stopping in to show O love! Trust when I tell you this is an ep you don't wanna miss and don't forget to subscribe to our You Tube Channel!

The Chop Shop: Chucky Thompson - My Life, My Music Documentary

Anybody who knows me knows that I'm a HUGE advocate of twitter when it's time to network cause I've not only made a rack of dope connects through twitter but also a rack of good folk who I now consider friends. I met my dude Shon through twitter cause we were chopping it up about a documentary I was working on and he shared with me this project he was working on based on Chucky Thompson and he asked did I wanna be down...did I wanna be down?!?!?! Come on fam...of course I wanna be down! So, two weeks later I'm in the studio chopping it up with Chucky (who btw, is one of my fave producers EVER) and I'm finally getting answers to questions that I've had the past 20 years! And I think the dopest thing about this interview is that I come at 100% from a fan's perspective and I honestly think that's one of the biggest things missing from the game right now. Back in the day if you worked for the Source, MTV/BET or at a label you were 9 times outta 10 a hip hop head or at least a music lover but we all know that's not how the game is played anymore...but all of that to say, that I think this is a REAL dope interview cause I get Chucky to chop it up about everything from how he got in the game, seeing BIG go from being just an upcoming MC to becoming one of the best ever, why Stevie J was doing more of the R&B bangers on "Life After Death", why the Hitmen broke up and did Puff blackball them after the break up from Bad Boy and the differences between working with Faith Evans and Mary J. Blige to the pressure he felt producing Mary's "My Life", how Faith's "Soon As I Get Home" got made while he was rushing to the airport, how he got the call to work on Nas' "Stillmatic"  and since he's one of the few producers to have worked with both Nas and BIG, who he thinks is the better MC and what he's currently working on and what he has in the chamber. Dope stuff ya'll...for real!
