GETDOWNNN's New Years Resolution

Since we've been down for what seems like forever, I thought I'd make it up to you all by putting up some songs that we would have posted on, if we were around. Please enjoy and have a safe and happy holidays {Better than "Best of..." lists and Christmas songs (just get Sufjan's album if you want some new holiday sounds), right?}.



[MP3] Mos Def :: U R The One
[MP3] Mos Def :: Lifetime
{A return to a more soulful Mos...me likes}
Style so fresh like baby's breath

[MP3] Ghostface Killah feat. Trife Da God & Soloman Childs :: Grew Up Hard
[MP3] Ghostface Killah feat. Shawn Wigs & Eamon :: Gotta Hold On
{What a year for Ghost. I heard with the success of the Fish series, Ghost is now going to strive to come out with 2 albums a year...now that's a Christmas gift.}
Ghost's site

[MP3] Clipse feat. Slim Thug :: Wamp Wamp (What It Do)
[MP3] Clipse :: We Got It Cheap
{This was the album of the year, especially in Hip-Hop. There were other contenders like Lupe, Ghostface, The Roots, but this was the album that brought it home all the way around, a 360 degree banger.}
Clipsy

[MP3] Snoop Dogg :: Real Talk
[MP3] Snoop Dogg feat. 2pac & DPG :: Just Watchin'
{Yes, Jigga & Nas weren't the only ones who had comebacks, but their albums were better from top to bottom. These are the only two tracks on the album that caught my ear.}
S-N-double O-P D-O-double G

[MP3] Nas feat. Kanye West :: Still Dreamin'
[MP3] Nas feat. Game & Floetry :: Hustlers
{I don't think Hip-Hop Is Dead, with a showing like this year. Granted it's not '89, but it could be worse.}
Kidnap the President's wife without a plan

[MP3] The Good, The Bad, & The Queen :: History Song
{Something to look forward to for next year, a supergroup which features Paul Simonon of The Clash on bass and production by Dangermouse. Check them out here.

Here to stay (hopefully).

RIP JB.

Awww, yeah baby!!!!!!!

I was just thinking about shooting you an email today to see what was up. Glad to see you back in the game (hopefully). I'm starting to realize how easy it can be to fall off as I've been slacking on updates myself recently. I'm gonna try to work in a general writing regiment into some of the things I hope to accomplish after the New Year.
