Whether it’s the release of original material (classics by Dilla, MAW, Pete Rock, Roy Ayers) or it’s various seminal compilations (Disco Spectrum, Real Funk for Real People, Strange & Funky Things) BBE has always been one of those labels I make a point to check for at the record store.
AGAIN, MAKE SURE YOU CLICK THE ACTUAL LINK TO LISTEN TO THIS MIX AND IN DOING SO, VOTE FOR DJ BOZAK!
PEACE!

“Verbal Dojo” (prod. by Jay Illestrate)
Jun 24th
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
On Monday, June 28th, 2010 Regular Cat and Creative Business soundsmith Jay Illestrate will be releasing the 3rd and final installment of his Art of Facts series (volumes ONE and TWO remain available for free download). On this installment, the Raleigh native concocts his version of a previously successful formula to hip hop music, combining soul samples and kung fu snippets. One would be remiss, however, to automatically assume that the impending album is a Wu-Tang Clan tribute. Illestrate’s blend of bars, beats, soul and grit not only embodies the spirit of Raleighwood, NC, but also serves as stellar music creating a modern soundscape for the urban ear.
The first leak from “Art Of Facts, Vol. 3″, entitled “Verbal Dojo”, features bars from Illestrate, his Creative Business cohort X*Cell and the RAREBREED emcee Savant in addition to the splendid scratching talents of Rice the Sound Transmitter. Be advised: “There’s no fear in this dojo!”
