Pop A Cap In Yo Ass

I kind of rediscovered this cool little spoken word house jam as I was getting my stuff together for Saturday night. I always liked the spoken word element of it, but had totally forgotten who does it. Surprise surprise... it's none other than everyone's favorite lady of the moment, Estelle.
Recommended.

Sport

I'm playing a B-Boy event tomorrow, so I wanted to post something a little bit...funky. And to me, this is as funky as it gets. The whole Hustler's Convention album is incredible, I don't know if it's available as we speak, but if you ever see it don't hesitate to grab it. With Kool & The Gang and Last Poets' Lightnin Rod on the same record you can't really go wrong. This is the classic jammy:
Lightnin Rod: Sport (1973)

As a bonus, a super dope re-edit of the same. This came out on a 12" last year, I wish I knew who's behind it.
