YouTube Soundclashes!
by be.
Tonight, me and my homey JC (TheMeaningOfDope), stayed back in the office for a few extra hours of work time before grabbing some sushi on Queen. When the office cleared out a little bit I started to play some YouTube music videos. And it goes a little something like this, hit it!
This is my ‘on repeat’ shit right now, so I set it off like dat!
I had to take it back to my 1997 NYC trip with this shit. “Up in Canada we rule”.
Then JC started putting in requests..
“Mobb Deep, Nas, Chef creation……”.
“….fo’ yo’ nation”.
JC just hears ‘em like that I guess. This was his immediate follow up request. Shout out to Pete Rock on the production, and shaking my head at Ice Cube for putting out a new album.
Yet another request from JC. I ain’t mad at it a little ATCQ though man.
“Competition they muss come straightway!”
My surprise Onyx joint…
JC’s request Onyx joint.
I had to do it. Bring it back to the good ol’ mixtape days.
Then I hit him with one of my all time favorite ‘Mega tracks. Tragedy Khadafi is the truth.
Here’s where JC played some random Khadafi song I ain’t never heard.
Sidebar: Don’t Aries Spears look just like Tragedy?!
Tragedy Khadafi
Aries Spears
Just sayin yo.
Then JC hit me with this one.
So I had to lace him with the “Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood” Soundtrack shit.
He his me with that “Deep Cover 98″ shit
So I had to lace him with that John Blaze shit!
Needless to say, it was an evening of dope music, getting a lot of work done.
YouTube is the shit for getting on your nostalgic shit with your peoples. I highly recommend desk to desk soundclashes.
BONUS: I’m sure ya’ll have seen this before, but if you haven’t, here’s a video of Aries Spears showing that he may be closer to being deserving of the title of Tragedy Khadafi look-alike.
