KONEKTADO x BRGY TIBAY YEAR ENDER

Battle Royale Champion was Righteous One

I must say, if you still think local hiphop is about to blow up - I mean wow, you are a caveman and definitely a good 2 years behind. Hiphop is definitely breakingthrough right now. Sasabog and hip -- nah, its already has. Events like this, Konektado x Brgy Tibay year ender is what its really about. Giving people an event they can own and participate in and not be always a fan, outside looking in.

We put up 20K for MCs to have a wonderful Christmas - knowing that hiphop gives back. That at the end of the day, mainstream doesn't always pay - its relevance that really pays. We can redirect our attention to skills and having fun. Its amazing to see the likes of Kamikaze, Fliptop heads, Stick Figgas, Cosmic Love and others share the venue knowing that we've shared this stage several times. Rock didn't outshine hiphop this night and vice versa.

The Sunugan 2011 year ender Battle Royale Champion was Righteous One. Well deserved. If you don't know him - he's one of the most avid fans of this shit -- and last night the spotlight was on him. No one took the spotlight from him and he lived up to it - bagging the cash prize and new found respect from his co MCs. And neegi if you didn't know, he won this tournament on a wheel chair.

Great job to Pinoytuner.com for putting this live streaming/recording together!

Reg Rubio, spearheading the donation drive for Sendong victims through Rock Ed - was a success. People from the Asiong Salonga movie was able to help raise 20K through this event. Hiphop definitely has heart - and this night displayed it best. From a wheel chair battling, and winning it all to putting our money where our mouths are - CDO, Iligan - we'll continue doing our part.

Wanna know how to help us more? And/or possibly be part of Loonie next video to be filmed around the metro soon?

MIKKI HAHN x IF x VIRUS LATENCY

Mikki Hahn - If

I think it was last year, I went to see Skarm to purchase his CD and chop it up. I was telling him I exceptionally liked a track which was not included in the CD. The song was "Virus Latency" featured below - and what blew me away was the rhymes, the music and this girl who to me was relatively unknown. Skarm then proceeded to tell me more about her, that she is no newbie in the scene - that she actually is under contract by a record label and had an album out. I nodded in curiosity. Today, I unlock this door for you guys, Mikki Hahn released an album under Viva. The album has its ups and downs - but I will tell you this, she is blessed with a good sense of music in her. Basing from her recent collaboration with Skarm and the highlights in her album - I look forward to the next songs she's going to put out. Today, I'm letting you hear her rendition of one of the most underrated Rivermaya x Bamboo Manalac song "If". Just letting you know that I does my research and I still am a fan of this hiphop shit, I find things that surprise me. Good job on this rendition Mikki Hahn!

Stay productive, lets hear new music!

Did you know Skarm just released another album this year?

INTERNATIONAL LOVE "DELIGHT"

Roscoe Umali, Gene Roca & Thyro - Delight (Produced by Bojam of Flip Music)

Strong debut last night on radio, Bojam works with Roscoe Umali on the R&B tip. Heard Roscoe did a track as well with another rapper in Pinas - great way reaching out Mr. Uuuu-mali. Cheers to feeding inspiration to new acts Gene and Thyro and giving them a co-sign via a track. Bojam does it again, trade mark sound - patented. Enjoy this free download guys! I surely did! Im guessing WAVE will be playing this throughout the remainder of the year! Kudos!

THE DOLLHOUSE WILL RELEASE A BOOK NEXT MONTH!

What started as a radio program for U92 and has transcended beyond radio since Day 1.

FROM THIRTEENITCHES.COM.AU: There is nothing more motivating than knowing people that do what they do for a greater cause. I’ll give you a prime example. Radio personalities of the Philippine radio show “The Dollhouse” are due to release a book this December. Not just any other book, the literary piece titled “Unscripted” will focus on the lives and the lessons learnt from the individuals who are seen as highly influential and innovative in the Philippines. Captured directly from the raw interview recordings of their radio segment, “The Real OG.”, the conversations you will be reading first hand will be thought-provoking, inspiring and obviously unscripted.

The book will pack a diverse range of individuals such as Madame Imelda Marcos (wife of the late President Marcos), rockstar Raimund Marasigan, educator Gang Badoy, iconic hip-hop group Mastaplann, and PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) legend Jeff Cariaso, and highlights the lessons that each “OG” encountered in their rise to success. Whether or not you are familiar with these names, these individuals help set a global standard when it comes to achievement and change. A big step towards empowerment in its own right, I see a book like this opening up the minds and motivating Filipinos across the country.

Unscripted by Sarah Meier and Vicky Herrera will be out this December. For information, watch this space.

11.11.11 @ RONAC ART CENTRE

The most anticipated album launch of the year, this coming 11.11.11

Did I tell you we are giving away a pair of Creative Recreation shoes? All you have to do is purchase the CD and we will raffle out the names of the cd buyers. Please bear in mind that if your name gets called and you aren't there to claim it, we will draw another winner. I also heard that Unschooled at Ronac will be selling the CDS starting at 4pm, so for people who can't stay out long on the 11th can buy the cd early, this would also be the perfect time to take pictures with Rjay, hehehehe. I heard all the songs in Rjays Mixtape and I must say its pretty impressive. Hits and misses on the album are:

1. "Only The Strong" song is an amazing song.
2. The beat for Visions of a Hustler REMIX is nothing you're used to hearing.
3. J-Heez steals the spotlight from Rjay in one song.
4. "Finish This Love Song" Rjay's verses displays a maturely structured song.
5. "High" definitely is the banger in this album. SPNZ is a revelation in this album!
6. "Sleepover" would've been better with a slick bassline.
7. "Wordplay" is the funkiest Bojam beat I've heard! Best Ninks verse I've heard!
8. "FFF" is that track that will bury doubts on Rjay as an MC.
9. "Genesis" provides a super dope Jonan Aguilar verse. And the Ruby Ibarra guest verse is crazy, but I would've wanted her to rock on a beat similar to "FFF"; all love though, her verse still displayed everything we give her props for!


Thats all I'm going to share at this point. See you kids on friday! Lastly, don't forget that you can also download the album for free on friday! Amazing surprise tracks awaits the people who can't be physically with us during the launch. Also, Rjay just shot the music video for the June Marieezy assisted track "Catch You", directed by the great Dominic Nuesa. Will post some behind the scenes photos on my next entry.

RJAY TY x UA x CREATIVE RECREATION

Download First Love HERE.

Oooh, I heard Drake's new album Take Care leaked today. Go go go. In other news, Urban Athletics and Creative Recreation gives you the very first single dropped by Rjay this year. "First Love" was first seen and heard HERE. Bojam re-worked and re-mastered the track and will be included in the coming album to be released this friday. This song also got super love from WAVE 89.1 and got much needed airplay.

Rumor is the listening party for the album is on thursday at KYSS.

Did you know: Creative Recreation is haracterized by originality and imagination; a refreshment of one’s mind or body through activity that amuses and stimulates play. Creative Recreation was founded in the fall of 2002, in Los Angeles, California. Like any revolution, the driving force behind the birth of Creative Recreation was a sense of dissatisfaction with what their industry was offering. At the time, the footwear market consisted solely of two options; either a dress shoe to be worn with a suit, or an athletic sneaker that did not fit into the functions of an individual’s everyday lifestyle. There simply wasn’t an option for a young professional living his life with style. Noticing this huge void, the two long time friends and colleagues decided to create a solution.

Rjay feat Lloyd, Thyro & One3D - DONT PISS ME OFF

DOWNLOAD DPMO HERE.

Are you not entertained?!! Word to Rusell Crowe. 5th day and rocking - fifth song download for this November mayhem. Deranged Poet, Rjay continues to bless us with good new music in anticipation of his debut release this coming 11.11.11. Today, he lets go of Don't Piss Me Off guesting various mcs.

First up to bat is Lloyd from Skarms label - The Pharm. Lloyd has slowly been penetrating the psyche of fans - from appearing in Fliptop battles, performing with Skarm - blessing Soul Fillet freestyle sessions. Lloyd is also the younger brother of now States based emcee M-Knocks. 2nd we have, Thyro of the new group - 5Th Wave Theory. Thyro is currently holding the title as the only OPM song to hit number 1 on WAVE 89.1 via the huge song "The Kiss"; a duet with Yumi. Thyro and Yumi just handed over the album they recorded to Viva, and we are awaiting a release date for them already. Lastly - we have One3D, of the formidable group Audible. One3D is currently based in Canada and his recent visits, we've seen him take on the Fliptop ring and win a couple of battles. One3D blessed our first ever Turbulence release - B-Sides which we launched last Nov 29, 2005 with a verse on a Chrizo beat and was actually the bonus track from the same cd with a song called "Letter To The President". For those of you who don't know how nice One3D is, go grab an Audible CD damnit or search for their video on YouTube "Freestyle".
