Twitter success...

I have to be honest... at first I was a little skeptical about the importance of something like Twitter. Am I really supposed to care so much about every last thing my friends and idols are up to on a minute by minute basis? But then I started to find and follow some of the icons who I've often wondered about, and who have been a little illusive in the past to say the least. I now realize that they prefer updating in this short and sweet style, and in the past week I've gotten personal replies from folks ranging from MC Ren (always been a favorite of mine) to DJ Spinbad (the best doin' it right now in my opinion) so ladies and gentlemen, I'm game!

Now, after letting the homie Spinbad know how much my college cohorts and I enjoyed his now legendary 80's mixtape when we would take rap road trips back and forth from Penn State, he was nice enough to pass along his most current project, the 90's Megamix! This is the definition of Twitter success and the art of creative turntablism at it's finest, so allow me to spread the wealth... click on the pic and enjoy!

One another note, today I met with my great friend and recording partner of over a decade, louis logic. Both our careers have evolved into something much grander than either one of us could have imagined for ourselves the first time we appeared on wax together back in '98, and it was nice to have a chance to finally catch up with him for the first time in a long time. He brought to my attention a Pitchfork Media review for Asher Roth's current single, "Lark On My Go-Kart" and it doesn't look good for dude. It's always a proud moment when you find recognition for your hard work, and this discovery ranks up there pretty highly on the list...

And the brand we created only wears better from here. Not to mention our boy Jonny October... well, lemme stop. More on that in the very near future. Speaking of which, we are that.

And you know it don't stop,
