I don't know about y'all, but I definitely miss 90's R&B. Check this interview Phonte and DJ Flash did where they give commentary on some classic baby makin music by Boyz II Men , Usher , R. Kelly , Shai , D'Angelo , Jodeci and more. The article has video of Tay responding as well, and he is hilarious as always. Shout out to okp soulsupreme for sending this [...]~~
About a month and a half ago we posted Every Little Brother Track You Could Ever Want That Is Not on Any of Their Retail Albums, which included Volumes 1-4 of the GetbackArmy.com's Mixtape series. Well, GetbackArmy.com is kicking the New Year off right by releasing Volume 5 with not one, not two, but three [...]
On November 4th Little Brother will be re-releasing Seperate but Equal as a DJ free LP. Along with this being the Drama free edition, it will also feature 3 previously unreleased tracks. This song is one of the three. Little Brother "Passion Flower (Prod. 9th Wonder)"
So, I haven't really gotten into Little Brother yet, but I'm going to have to check this new album out when it drops. I liked "Good Clothes". I even went to check them out when they performed around my way. But the sounds system was pretty bad, so I couldn't really get into any of there other songs. Anywayz, I found this gem today on hiphopdx.com.So...yeah...it looks like it's officially il...
Before the semifinals of the Red Bull Big Tune beat battle in Chicago, Little Brother took the stage for a 20 minute set. Just Blaze also sets the mood for the finals with a DJ set spinning some of his records. Shouts to GoWhereHipHop.
In 2006, a Hip-Hop superstar reiterated some feelings that Hip-Hop was dead. Apparently, in 2007, the genre/industry has been resurrected. In a year that has already featured one of my favorite Hip-Hop albums of the last few years (Pharoahe Monch's Desire), that album probably won't even crack my top 3 for 2007. As it's been somewhat well documented on MOG, Common's upcoming album Finding Fo...
Good for a laugh at the end of a busy week...Phonte from Little Brother could probably give Questlove from the Roots (QoolQuest on MOG) a run for his money for who has the most diverse music taste in Hip-Hop (and/or Neo-Soul)... Phonte has this thing for covering 80s "classics," such as "Africa" by Toto and the song I posted about last Friday (A-Ha's Take On Me). Anyway, here's Phonte answerin...
I'll be on a plane pretty much all day tomorrow so I won't be able to post on Funky Friday, therefore I figured I'd post a song right now that kinda sits on the fence between Hip Hop Thursday and Funky Friday...I've been wanted to put something up by Little Brother for a while, because next to the Roots & Talib Kweli they are my basically my #1C Hip Hop act. This song, Flash and Flare is off t...

Sirens feat. Carlitta Durand (angry song wi...
I just came across some excellent news courtesy of my man J.D. at Hip Hop Update. Here's the scoop… Fresh off of the success of the And Justus For All official release (debuted in Billboard Top 200), Little Brother is out to duplicate the plan with the re-release of their acclaimed mixtape originally hosted by DJ [...]
Little Brother... I've heard the name mentioned before, and I've actually heard this song, but I didn't connect the two until tonight. I was reading about BET and how the music video for "Lovin' It" was banned because it was deemed "too intelligent" for their target audience. Stuff like that makes me hate BET, aka Black *Exploitation* Television... and naturally I was interested in music video ...
