This one takes me back to 8th grade. Remember when they sold CD's in those long boxes, supposedly to allow for the cover art to stand out, or maybe just to make CD's more attractive than the small boring cassettes (with their small boring profit margins). Well 'Check Your Head' in long box format was the decor for the inside of my locker.

I particularly love this cut because it captures what the Beastie's were doing with their hip hop band revision. It also references, in title, a Kool and the Gang live album.

So for HHT , here is Live at PJ's.

They actually sold them that way so they could fit in the old record racks. I think two or three cd's fit in the shelf space of one record. Plus they were a little harder to steal. Takes me back as well. Classic.

Nice track. Not too hard, not too jazzy, not too serious. I like it. Hadn't really heard of that collective before, but it looks like the guys who leads off the rhymes in the vid is Grouch, who I believe has put out a record with a bay rap duo Zion I - Heroes in the City of Dope. They've got some good tracks going on there. Including this one, "Trigger," where they do a real nice job with a Clash sample.

You two are too knowledgeable. All I know is that I quite like their sounds.

OK, now that I have gotten the tears and mental hangovers somewhat out of my system I would like to say that I am going to hit you all hard in the next few weeks, hopefully with some interesting stuff. Here is a little something, call it a mix tape intro...

Some very incessant broken beat programming that has a bit of menace to it...

that's bad ass - the best stuff i've heard on Mog so far. i checked out their myspace and it says they're from Zimbabwe, do you know if that's true? if so, that might explain why they haven't logged in since January. thanks for sharing

peace
