Troy Ave x BSB -THE SYMPHONY prod. by Pete Rock [MUSIC DOWNLOAD]

Now sometime before Fab and Pusha T started requesting him for features, I had been posting a few things from Troy Ave out of New York. Then Eazee Street had a bit of a layoff...we'll now that I'm getting back into game form I figured I'd post something that had been chillin' in my inbox. This is him with his crew BSB and production from Pete Rock. If Pete Rock is reaching out because he fucks with your music...you gotta lace his production. "POWDER to the People".

CYPRESS HILL - LIGHT IT UP (MUSIC VIDEO)

This track is produced by Pete Rock...check it out and spread the word.

STRONG ARM STEADY x CURTIS MAYFIELD - MAKINGS OF YOU (PROD. PETE ROCK)

I actually did this artwork...I didn't know that the song had dropped because of holiday activities.  The song hit the ground running and even stirred up some controversy over at 2DBZ.  So remember that video of DJ Khalil & Pete Rock I posted earlier...?  Well this song is supposedly the result of that time period.  Now it was originally intended for the Strong Arm Steady album but it was taken off...then Kanye West used this for the song The Joy...as you know that did not make Kanye's album BUT was used in the GOOD Friday series.  And with it being a free leak...it seems even Rah Digga decided to put it to use for herself.  Either way the sample uses the great Curtis Mayfield and as a hip hop fan we're used to hearing familiar samples.  Either way take a listen and enjoy.  SAS posted it on their soundcloud but it exceeded the download limit...so since it caused a lil stirrup over at the Dope House we'll borrow their link.

DJ KHALIL MEETS PETE ROCK FOR THE 1ST TIME (VIDEO)

HOMAGE TO PETE ROCK - RAPPER BIG POOH, SHA STIMULI & KURUPT (prod. by FOCUS)

Shake had put me onto this track yesterday I believe and had posted the youtube 'video' of it.  He said the CDQ would drop tomorrow but he got a hold of it today so I'm gonna show it off over here just because the man above is on it.  He's made some cool creations with Pete Rock so it's good to see him rep for Pete as well.  Shake's link is below.
