The Black Opera – Black Superstar (Prod. By yU) [Audio x Download]
The Black Superstar has always been a paradox in American Culture. African-Americans, and many racialized ‘others’, have for a long time held this odd allure as naturally cool, while at the same time suffering the effects of a body that is instantly criminalized. This is a dangerous duality that can serve as simultaneous impetus and hindrance. This polarization drives an ill collaboration between yU and the mysterious outfit known as The Black Opera, hosted by Mello Music Group.
PPP feat. SA-RA – Deep Inside (Belle Isle Remix) [Audio]
Remix of Deep Inside by PPP feat. SA-RA. Produced by Waajeed and Selan.
I remixed this track for a Mix CD I sold on the road to support the Abundance Album. It had some circulation, but I felt y’all should get a chance to download it in full. I met Taz Arnold while sharing the same London based management. He came out to the D and shortly afterwards, I met him and Major in LA where we recorded “Concrete Nigga.” We recorded in Michael Jackson’s studio where he had a 4 ft. high room over the recording booth for his monkey Bubbles to watch him record — No, Bubbles was not there and the room did not smell like monkey shit. I got some help from the homie Selan on the boards. Two step to this. - Jeedo
