Rare Artist Series: Three Inches of Blood - The Phantom Of The Crimson Cloak
I love some metal and MC Denthead put me on to this group hailing from the frosty burgs of Canada. Their music is a throwback and a blast forward, at the same time, to the way metal was and should be!

Deadly Rhyme Medly Live

Jakes Jamboree Session 11
A fourteen part series from the session up in Connecticut at Lamada's Laboratory. Live drums, bass, keys, kalimba, turntables, etc. provide the tools for which these guys used to just have some fun making music.
Rare Artist Series: Johnny Cash - Ain't No Grave
Incredible song recorded by Johnny Cash under the guidance of.... Rick Rubin? Yes. Solid stuff.

Dead Boy (2011 Analog Remix)
Mysterio updated this classic track by E.N.S. with some jazzy flavors and the perfect reggae tinge to accentuate the concept of the original song. A brief intro from "Heat" provided by Robert DeNiro sets the tone for the proceedings.

Rare Artist Series: G-Love & Special Sauce - Blues Music
A great song which brings me back to the summer of 1994. Never heard much more about these guys but I guess I stopped looking. Now it is time to dig and maybe add to the cassingle I have of theirs.

Rare Artist Series: Juggaknots - Clear Blue Skies
Classic material right here. I remember having this on a mixtape and wearing the tapeheads thin listening to this somber song.

Rare Artist Series: Virtuoso - One
What an awesome album cover and what a really great song. After Big Virt dropped this album I expected so much more and ended up being disappointed. Besides a couple of songs on this album I would dare say it is near classic. Anyhow - this one always hit home and it still does.

Rare Artist Series: 2 Live Crew - Move Somethin'
I was/am a huge 2 Live Crew fan. I remember going down to D.C. one day and searching for a store that would sell me their tape labeled EXPLICIT LYRICS. Did not stop playing it once I got home.

Rare Artist Series: Infinite Thoughts - Better Noit
Incredible, indelible hip hop right here from a newcomer Infinite Thoughts. The album he dropped is straight thick hip hop through and through. I highly recommend this for the "purists".

Rare Artist Series: The Pharcyde - Passin' Me By (Fly As Pie Remix)
One of the best remixes ever. The original was great but this remix was absolutely incredible!

Rare Artist Series: Sadat X - God is Back
This was a hidden track on his Black October album and to me it should not have been hidden. A mellow track with some sharp lyrics only Sadat could drop.
