Bostonianz617 cosigns Thorotracks- The Saga Continues (LP) Hosted by J-Love

I've said before that this blog reps 100% the Bean but at the same time I support all real hip- hop.

Thoroplated Promotions reached out to Bostonianz617 through myspace regarding Thorotracks new LP "The Saga Continues" I visited their myspace page and was immediately blown away. Thorotracks is a two man wrecking crew in the production game. Team members are Sam and Jay, representing the Lefrak and Woodside section of Carona Queens, NY. Their production credits include heavyweight rappers Styles P, Nas, Killa Priest, NYG'z, Krumbsnatcha, Black Poet, Skyzoo, Canibus and many many more. If that current credit list isn't already enough, then I should also mention they have guest spots on "The Saga Continues" from Mike Geronimo, Cella Dwellas and Royal Flush. I can't begin to explain the elation this brings to any REAL RAP fan when less than often heard artist of this magnitude are still putting out rhymes. Royal Flush, Mike Geronimo and Cella Dwellas (members UG/Phantasm) are staples of that 90's boom bap era.

Bostonianz617 has had some dialouge with Thorotracks member Sam and he threw me some crack singles to introduce you to their style.

Bostonianz617 runs into Ed O. G 08/14/09

I'm in a cab getting back from the Onyx show which was bangin'. Me, my boy and our wifees were at a red light and who do I see but none other than Boston rap legend Ed O. G. I should have made him pull over for an interview but more than enough drinks later it wasn't the right time or place. He did let us know his new album with Masta Ace drops 10/22/09 on A&E Music. We noticed the whip needed a little body work- I know some grease heads that will take care of you ED O.

Shout out to Big Yamo on the pic.

Cambridge's Portlife44 artist Rigarous-Last Dance Call (single)

My peoples right here been grinding since the 90's. Portlife44 reps the Port section of Cambridge, Ma Bostonianz617 has had the pleasure of growing up with founders Big Si and Taba Moses. They are an entertainment company with a production team and artist line up. The production team consists of DJ Stone Patrone & J-TRX. The one artist that's caught my eye is the MC of the crew named Rigarous. A female MC hailing from Queens NY, she has a similar style to Lil Kim but more rough lyrically. I've never been a big fan of female MC's, they've let me down too much (Remi Ma and Rah Digga). But yo Rigarous is NICE, she's got a lot of potential and upside. This single right here, "Last Dance Call" is what got Bostonianz617 attention-she flows HARD over this beat.

Shout out to founders Big Si and Taba Moses holdin' it down at Portlife44.

Killa Cam@Harper's Ferry (Allston, Ma) 8/20/09

I'm not the biggest fan of Camron's new shit. Can't call what really happened to Dipset but it definitely has had an affect on the whole crew. Still Cam is an original Harlem rapper and anyone who once the held the mic next to the one and only BIG L gets love. Bostonianz will not be in attendance tonight as its his girl's b-day (can't mess that up) should be a good show none the least.

Beantown's Lou Armstrong (Hitmakerz)

I'm actually fairly new to Lou Armstrong and Hitmakerz. I heard his verse on the Mass-as-a-nation single with 36 of New England's best MC's. He has two really nice tracks on the Hitmakerz Presents Lou Armstrong Vol 1 mixtape hosted by the The Drama King DJ Kay Slay. Lou definitely got flow but in my opinion his production is somewhat lacking.

Check out the official video for "you need more people" and "listen" (both tracks 1 video)

Bostonianz@Onyx Show (Harpers Ferry) Allston, Ma 8/14/09

Bostonianz had the pleasure of being at the Onyx show last Friday night. It was a good show but never be in the front of an Onyx show. Dudes be thinking it's a Metallica concert so they start moshin and shit. Fredro and sticky weren 't helping though as they were eggin the crowd on. Note to myself film from a distance.

Lower the volume cause I was right in the front so the speakers were in thump mode.

Cambridge's NBS

NBS (Natural Born Spitters) are Cambridge rap veterans they been going hard since I can remember. Both from the Bean then moved to Cambridge, they consist of 2 members Vee Knuckles & E' Flash, I saw them most recently opening up for MOP at The Middle East. Shout out to the homie Kirk for reminding me NBS on their grind man, rapping to eat. They work with such producers as 9th wonder and Cambridge's J Cardim. I love their new single "CPD" (Cambridge Police Department)taking shots at both CPD and Gates. Not so surprisingly to me the shots they take at Gates who really tried to pull the "I'm black card".

Someone is pulled over in Central Sq Cambridge every 30 minutes by my count.

Beantown Racer (my man G's bike)

I ran into one of my peeps from back in the day last week he was on his bike chillin'. My man G is a bike freak and has a collection of 5. One bike REALLY caught my eye though, he's a die hard Sox fan like me I have my tats to prove it he's got the sickest bike in the Bean to prove it. This bike is sick! look at the size of that back tire and the shaded B's below the seat and on the fender. I'd rock this shit right in front of Fenway or better yet right in front of Yankee Stadium like "WHAT!"

See the specs on the bike

Cambridge's J. Cardim (interview with hiphopgame.com)

Your producer's favorite producer did a little video interview on making beats and who the best producers in the game are. I'm really feeling his beats even the one he's just messin' around with in the interview. He's definitely reppin the Bean to the fullest I just really haven't heard him the scream CAMBRIDGE.....C'mon J Cardim "what you think cause we HARVARD boston niggas dont be robbin'/mobbin' when we starvin' "

Nah its all good keep making them head bang beats...

Joe Budden... I told you so.....STUPID!

I wanna try and keep it all Beantown but every once in a while I gotta voice my opinion. A month ago I took a little time out to blog about this DICK trynna call out Method Man. I had said this was a HUGE MISTAKE calling out Legendary Wu member Method Man. Well, it just so happens that Budden was clocked by one of Reakwon's people at a Rock The Bells concert. I do not advocate any sort of violence regarding hip-hop beefs but he should of known this was coming. Word is Rea has a video stream of the incident and Joe has come out with why/how it happened. He claims he was outnumbered which apparently he was and could not defend himself....SO WHAT! Take a beating like a man, its not like they was gonna kill you. Again man, I do not promote violence but if anyone in the entire hip hop industry deserved a beat down it's this man. His non-relevant rhymes have gotten him in a world of trouble. It will be interesting to see if Slaughterhouse will retaliate in anyway. In a way it's sad cause I love both groups (minus Budden) but you get what you deserve.

Onyx@Harpers Ferry Allston, Ma 8/14/09

Roxbury's Ed O. G teams up with Masta Ace

Now I can't stress enough the magnitude of these two legendary MC's working with each other. Ed O. G, the King Of The Bean, has been grinding since the late 80's starting his career with his hit single "I got to have it." At the same time Brooklyn native and legendary MC Masta Ace was part of the hottest hip hop crew of their time (late 80's) "The Juice Crew." This group consisted of pioneer MC's Biz Markie/Craig G/Kool G Rap/Tragedy Khadafi/Big Daddy Kane/Roxane Shante and Producer/Founder Marley Marl. They're performing live tonight in Brooklyn (sorry for the late alert). They are also working on an album together on A&E Music-didn't even know A&E was in music. The project is due out sometime in September. This album is a must cop album for any real rap fan. Ed O and Ace have collaborated on many prior efforts but no full lenth LP.

My man Check comes in 10th right after Slaine. Ed O G, fittingly of course being the King Of The Bean, comes in last. The track list is bananas yo... it features Statik Selektah, Termanology, Dre Robinson, Larry Cheeba, Akrobatik, Big Shug, Ghetto, Ea$Y Money, Krumbsnatcha, Lou Armstrong, Slaine, Checkmark, Wally Gramz,Ren Kali, Singapore Kane, G-Eyez, REKS, EV, Artisin, Steis, BallKclub, Jaysaun, Snuk, Brass and Ed O G. I know there are more but I can't find the complete artist list. Everyone is on this track except for two dudes, Betrayl and Phinelia- though I'm not sure how long Phinelia has lived in the Bean. Betrayl is a beast hailing from New Bedford Mass, all you producers and rappers please don't sleep, collab with these dudes.

Cambridge's Big Check AKA Check Mark

This Rapper/Entrepreneur happens to be a lifelong friend of mine. We used to kick it in his moms apartment back in day listening to Dougie Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew. I've always had the passion to follow the rap scene like I was a DJ. Check always had the passion to actually be a rapper. I want to make one thing clear my man Check is getting a post not because he's a friend of mine but because he is NICE WITH HIS. I've been pushing Check to stay on his grind for a minute now, with all the doo doo rappers out there he can shine. I told him life takes some funny turns sometimes but do what you love to do. Check is 1/2 of the Cambridge Rap Duo Skitzofreniks the other half being Eddie Bones. This is Check's first solo album called "Vitta Matta" it's due out soon. Check has linked up with none other than Statik Selektah for some production. Fuckin with Statik right now is MONEY straight up.

Cambridge's Troy Anthony AKA Trizz

In any form of entertainment, be it Rap/Movies/Singing/Pro Sports, you have to look good. Troy Anthony's Barber Shop in Cambridge has been a staple for style and looks as far as I can remember. This barber is not just about fades and hair designs, he can do just about anything you want. He's not just about cutting black people type hair or white people type hair, he'll cut whomever's hair as long as it's doable and at the end of the day you'll look good. My man T was cutting our entire high school's hair after school for 5 beans a head. His house was open to everyone who needed a haircut. You would come into his crib and wait on his sectional couch until he came home (first come first served). It was inevitable he would one day own his own shop. This blogger HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommends this shop for any style you want. He'll tell you if it's gonna be wack too- he cares about his clientele not just the money. Troy has cut hair for many people from high profile rappers to pro athletes. Please come visit Troy Anthony's on the corner of Cambridge and Prospect St.

Big ups to all the other barbers who are employed at Troy Anthony's Barber Shop.
