Packing it in for the night. Tomorrow when you are all bobbing your heads to this track, put a fist in the air for me as I attempt to vomit out as much civil procedure as possible and write away, draining pen after pen until my right hand seizes up in cramp!Little reminiscing here, this one is in honor of my first ever "real concert". 1993 Souls of Mischief, De La Soul, and Tribe Called Quest were

since mog seems to be on a hip hop kick, i figured i woud add my two cents. i was once asked what my favorite OPENING lines to any hip-hop song are. it didnt take long for my mouth to start moving and without a thought the opening lyrics to "at the helm" by heiroglyphics started pouring out. Del tha funkee homosapian lyrics do it for me everytime. i. ive posted the lyrics and now i pose the que...
Lately I have heard a lot about how lacking Del's newest album is, and although I agree for the most part that he changed his style so much that it almost seems like a prank, when I saw him live at the catalyst in April it blew my mind.

NYC writer/DJ Jon Oliver recently featured Hieroglyphic's "You Never Knew" from their 1998 debut Third Eye Vision, and although the original is indeed a summer stoop classic, Hiero member/manager/beatmaker Domino's 2007 remix is way better. Make sure you grab that along with the original sample from Dom-produced "At the Helm" below, because as Pep Love says, "Those that know not doze, and it sh...
I love hip hop, but the good stuff...not the stuff that fills Mtv and radio. I'm not as into it as I once was or could be, but I keep up with it through the hierocast and stuff. Check out the pod/hierocast at http://www.iconocastic.com/. The most recent hierocast is video with Del. The hierocast is a good way to stay in touch with some great hip hop.

Souls of Mischief will be in the building, hopefully with some new jams from their highly anticipated upcoming Prince Paul-produced record in tow. I used to watch this video on Rap City every day after school back in the day: mp3:souls of m...
Beiing from the Bay Area, I was introduced to Hiero when i was in grade school. My friends brother spun music at Santa Clara Universty, and he spun and listened to local and underground hip-hop, so I was brought up on e40, too $hort, hiero, ect....When I first heard "You Never Knew" I felt as if i were hearing hip-hop with a new set of ears, it was totally what i wanted to hear, and Hiero keeps...
