Games: Get Ready For DJ Hero…

Filed under: rhymetorrents — admin @ 11:00 pm

I think we all pretty much knew this was inevitable, but can you think of anything better for creating nerdcore hip-hop?

“Kotick’s comments follow on from a number of other leaks and speculation concerning the upcoming rhythm game. According to online reports, the game will integrate both a turntable-style controller and Guitar Hero guitars. The controller, which reports claim is on its sixth iteration, allegedly includes a scratch platter, three buttons for sampling, a cross fader, and a sound-effects dial.”

So who’ll be the first NCHH group, DJ or MC to put out a track using this?

GUNG HAY FAT CHOY, YO! Happy Lunar New Year!

Year of the OX ya’ll, or better yet, year of Barack, what what!

Been a minute since I hollered at you all, my dear Suck-Friends. Last thing I did was that pretty fly show at Munky King, then, silence. In keeping with tradition, I kept a low profile during January, staying out
of sight until after Chinese New Year, which is when things really get going. So this is a long one here, filled with projections for 2009 in the Suck world. If you are a fan of Suckadelic, there is a lot of exciting new information in here for you. On the other hand, if you don’t care about me and my moves (why would you?) Then you should stop reading now.

Still here? Bet. Let’s begin:

BOOTLEGS:

2009 will be the final year that Suckadelic will be producing those Star Wars style figures that made us famous. It was great and I had a blast making them, but I said what I wanted to say with them and it’s time to try other things. There are eleven more characters dropping throughout the year, and when they’re done, they’re done. I’m calling this series the FINAL ELEVEN and they will be produced in lower quantities than usual. After that I hope to collect them all into some kind of book, should I be so Lucky. That said, the first one is ready to go. He’s called “THE CREATURE: Wrecked Souls of Forgotten War.”

He is a mash up of the classic Creature from the Black Lagoon and those
old school plastic army men we all had as kids. He is limited to 20 pieces
in the standard blister card style, priced at $40

I also understand that it may be too expensive for some people, or some
may be discouraged to start collecting these things so late in the game.
Therefore I decided to make another batch in that tagged bag style that
so many people seem to like. It works well in this case cuz this is my
first figure that is actually okay to open. This version is $25.

College Hip-Hop Charts – U.S. & Canada – January

Filed under: rhymetorrents — admin @ 7:36 am

<– Canada

CMJ Hip-Hop Charts: http://cmj.com/charts.php?chart_type=5

I’ve always maintained that nerdcore MCs should focus on college radio. I know I don’t promote NCHH anymore, as such, and the genre has lost visibility as a result, but these charts should be encouraging. Take note of a guy named MC Frontalot in the top 20 on the CMJ chart…

Video: High-C "I Didn’t Write This 4 U" (Kid Charlamaign Remix)

I got a backing track from Kid Charlamaign almost two years ago, and then we lost touch for a while. Now he’s not only mastered the track, he beefed it up nicely and made a video for it, as well. The man is a genius. Expect great things from him in the future.

and I did way better interpretations of my own music, it’d probably be something like this:

Negative PH rehearses their reimagining of my song, Sea Of Stars, or as they’ve retitled it, SOS.

Oh well, I’m not two people, and they took the song straight to Awesomeville, where as mine lingers in Lazytown. They are apparently gonna do live shows, and as the video clearly shows, they’ll definitely be worth checking out.

In case zShare isn’t your thing.

Everything on nekodashi.info now also has Megaupload links. If that isn’t enough incentive to nose back by the site, my complete mc chris remixes from 2002-2005 are now uploaded as well.

another sign that God love you.” – Lupe Fiasco, “Real” from Food & Liquor

So, my grandfather has been buried in Duluth. That was last weekend for me. It’s still sort of weird to think about it. I imagine it’d be a heavier weight to bare if not for other goings on, though any time I really meditate on it it gets to me, and I cry.

My mom’s vision is currently messed up – a partially detached and torn retina tends to do that. She goes in for surgery next Wednesday. If you’re the praying type, now would be a good time.

I got a hold of Rai, finally dropped off her copies of Final Boss. Maybe with a little luck, we’ll actually get work done such that her album is done well before I go back to school. At the very least, she’ll have a laptop with XP on it, and thus a working microphone for recording. I think we have a much better idea of where it’s headed too, so that should also help in getting things done.

I need to start into sorting though which of the schools I want to go to. I have some days of nothing but long phone calls and boring office visits with college bureaucrats ahead of me. Thankfully, having friends to turn to at the end of those days, plus a good family and lovely girlifriend to talk to helps a lot. It helps me stay grounded, and that lifts me off the ground sometimes too.

It’s weird. Things haven’t been going great at all in a lot of ways lately. It’s been down right crap. Yet, it’s these troubles that remind that I am blessed to have so many good people around me who are there for me when I need them. I haven’t even tapped everyone on that account. I’m probably lucky like that.

To everyone who helps me out: Thanks.

Torrent: Chronically Nerdy – YT/Dr. Dre Mash-Up Album

Filed under: rhymetorrents — admin @ 8:13 am

http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4675021/Chronically_Nerdy

Remix of some tracks I did, mostly mashups of YTcracker and the entire “2001″ album by Dr. Dre. Pretty dope overall I think, so I decided to share it with the world as Suicide Scherzo. Track listing (not in any particular order):

blinkrite
big DGs
forgot about surge
light speed city
megaxxxplosive
nerdcentric inc.
shitty dicks
some lawndarts
still loding
the source
these 50 calibur pills
watching my time
whats the legend
who needs a housewife

All credit for beats go to Dr. Dre, all acapellas to Bryce Case a.k.a. YTcracker.
