BlackRadioIsBack.com Music Video: J. Bully


Happy Friday to our readers here at BlackRadioIsBack.com and the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast!

Durham, North Carolina Hip-Hop MC, Morehouse College gradate, radio personality and Adjunct Assistant Professor of the Practice at Duke University in the Department of Music (where he designed and teaches a course on Hip-Hop/Rap Music appreciation), J. Bully (formerly known as Jugga the Bully back in the late 1990s) has been grinding for a minute.

Through his history of being a part of high profile MC Battles (Blaze Magazine, former Source Magazine Atlanta MC Battle Champ, and a standout performer on BET's 106&Park Freestyle Friday in 2003), having a single that hit the Billboard Hip-Hop/R&B Sales Charts in 2002 ("Ridiculous" b/w "Y'all Know" that was produced by Nitti, the creator of Boyz N Da Hood's hit single "Them Boyz"), a controversial single back in the late 1990s calling out New York City's DJ Clue ("F*** Clue") and his constant grind of releasing singles and mixtapes, J. Bully has been making himself heard loudly in the local North & South Carolina scenes and internationhally.

Now with The Mogul Group (which folks joined in in 2006), J. Bully has a lot of projects coming out to showcase his brand of "Educated Thug Music), including an upcoming full album dropping this year with fellow N.C. producer K. Hill (Bully-Hill) and other projects with songs in the works that include production with 9th Wonder, 88 Keyz, Ski Beatz, DJ Toomp and others.

Give the video and look and listen...hope you enjoy!

BlackRadioIsBack.com Mixtapes of the Week #24 - (Mostly) Independent Hip-Hop Artist Edition

What's good everyone,

Been a little while since updating this section - have had an insane amount of things to do the past few weeks while going thorugh my regular stack (literal and e-mail links and such) of music to listen to - including what feels like a HUGE proliferation of mixtapes as of late.

For those who are new to the site (and for those who aren't, glad you're around), folks here at BlackRadioIsBack.com and the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast are back again to jump off with some new and classic mixtape posts for the masses. :)

This is our weekly section where BlackRadioIsBack.com hits up the people some more some free promotional mixtapes and mixtape podcasts for download that are pretty on point - not just from the FuseBox Radio/BlackRadioIsBack.com crew, but from all over the place.

To all of my peoples who hit me with hard copies or e-mails of mixtape and mixshow submissions, suggestions, websites and bootleg men (yes, for real, those "hit up so and so for the hot s***" info dropped on me) of various mixtape releases, I thank y'all a lot for supporting this venture.

So your blank CDs ready for these ten joints and support the local mixtape bootleg man/mom and pop store, DJ, website, etc.

This week, we're doing a special focus on the independent Hip-Hop artist - since there are so many now who are using the mixtape angle as a promotional tool (and nice way to make some side $$$).

For my DJs, if you do good mixtapes of Hip-Hop, Soul, Rock, House, Reggae, Classics or are a music artist with your mixtape album out you don't mind having posted as promo on the web, feel free to hit the BlackRadioIsBack.com family up at blackradioisback@gmail.com with a link to your mixtape with cover and tracklisting - hopefully, we'll put your joint up on here in the future.

NOTE (as always):

PLEASE don't send me no B.S. with folks:

A. Yelling loud as hell over the song on some fake DJ Clue/DJ Kay Slay/DJ Khaled/Funkmaster Flex ish and I can't hear the damned song but 10 seconds of it (mics have volume control...thanks)

B. Mixtape "exclusives" that are on the radio - if its dope its dope, don't need the fake labeling

C. Overall wackness

* NOTE - These mixtapes are dirty versions, no radio edits! *

BlackRadioIsBack.com New Music: Benisour



What's up everyone,

Hustle Simmons is a dope independent Hip-Hop group consisting of Camden City, NJ Hip-Hop MC, Dave Ghetto and Philadelphia based producer, Tha S Ence.

We've been rocking Dave Ghetto's music over here on the FuseBox Radio Broadcast and BlackRadioIsBack.com damned near since our inception in the late 1990s (over 10 years...crazy) while he was on with Nuthouse the now defunct Goodvibe music label that was home to Bahamadia, Slum Village, Mystic and so forth and are glad to see that the he's been on a consistent grind putting out quality Hip-Hop music with heads (check out the LoveLife? album on Counterflow Records when folks get a chance to see what's good).

The self-titled album is going to drop on the Break Bread Projects label on June 24, 2008.

Check out the single below and let me know what ya'll think!

BlackRadioIsBack.com New Music & Video: Mickey Factz


What's good folks,

I've finally got a chance to check out the music of Bronx NYC independent Hip-Hop MC Mickey Factz and the GFCnewyork crew this past weekend while laid up on allergy meds (no Global Warming, yeah, OK) in the Maryland Music Lab of BlackRadioIsBack.com and the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast.

Mickey Factz was recommended to me by numerous folks who hit your folks up with insane amounts of website links, articles, etc. to check out as being one of the dope cats in the recent wave Hip-Hop Music that's taking it back to the boundary pushing electicness of when the artform began where you can your BoomBap and Street Hip-Hop joints, but there was nothing wrong with throwing in some Rock, Electro, etc. up in the mix as well with other subject matter that can be simple as all hell or go somewhere else that actually gets feet tapping and heads nodding.

There's not a term yet I know that describes this wave of Hip-Hop Music as of yet that seems to include heads like The Cool Kids, Jay Electronica, Kidz In The Hall and so forth (hopefully no description equivalent as asinine as "Neo-Soul" will sneak its way into the general populace but who knows - we could run into the term "HipsterHop" or some such s*** later), so I'll just call it good Black Music for the time being.

Thankfully, folks are happy to say that this brother is not just another part of the Internet Hipster Hype Machine - there are real skills, creativity and depth to Mickey Factz's songs and such that if someone doesn't grab him up on a decent business deal from a major label, their A&Rs need to go back to Finding A Decent Hip-Hop Artist 101 course.

Well, a decent amount of major labels need to do that anyway, but that's a whole other post for another day (along with Actually Putting Out The Decent Hip-Hop Artist's Album In The Near Future 102)....

Give the latest mixtape by Mickey Factz a listen for yourself and let folks know what you think...

Folks over at Duckdown Records are going to hit folks for a second time with a Buckshot & 9th Wonder collaborative LP, The Formula, this April as well. The first album they did together, Chemistry, was pretty fire and hopefully, we'll get the same vibe with this joint.

9th Wonder's been on fire lately with his production for folks (especially with the Erykah Badu "Honey" single) and Buckshot has been dropping quality verse as a Hip-Hop MC since the early Black Moon days (and on the grind as of late doing music for ESPN’s 2008 Men’s College Basketball Programming and producing the title track for The History Channel’s “Gangland” series), so I'm thinking that shouldn't be any issue.

We got some singles and the tracklisting for this album to glance at and ponder until the project drops:

Buckshot & 9th Wonder - The Formula LP (Release Date: 4/15/2008 on Duckdown Records)

1. Intro -The Formula feat. The Formula Crew
2. Ready (Brand New Day)
3. Be Cool feat. Swan
4. Go All Out feat. Carlitta Durand
5. No Future
6. Hold It Down feat.Talib Kweli and Tyler Woods
7. Whassup with U feat. Keisha Shontelle
8. Only For You (Lou)
9. Just Display
10. Here We Go
11. Throwing' Shade
12. Shinin' Yall feat. Arafat Yates and Big Chops of M1 Platoon
13. Man Listen

New Music: Free Album Download By Hip-Hop Group, Completeion - Freedom's Journal Album



For my folks who like quality Hip-Hop music, here's a free download (it was given to us, we're not doing the bootleg thing) of the New Jersey Hip-hop group Completion's album, Freedom's Journal, that includes the cover art and liner notes.

The MCs of the group, Trance The MC & Mr. Emphatic, came up with the album title from the influence of the first Black American newspaper, "Freedom's Journal", which was established in New York by Samuel E. Cornish & John B. Russwurm around the period of 1827-1829.

We've played their music on and off on the FuseBox Radio Broadcast through the years and hope you enjoy the tracks.
