Throwback Fridays - 4 3 2 1

LL Cool J, DMX, Redman, and Method Man - 4, 3, 2, 1 remix feat Canibus Master P as featured on Cosmo Baker's Too Much Posse

Not enough DMX up in here. Oh man, remember when it was cool to wear winter clothes 365 days a year? Like snow goggles and puffy coats? Yeah. Oh and I just found the remix video featuring Canibus. I miss Canibus and his beef with Cool J. Remember that one video where he brought out Mike Tyson? Yeah good times. Speaking of which Mike was just in Cannes for a new documentary about his life and Sony just picked it up.

Bom dia! So I'm heading out to Rio today for Carnaval. I so can't wait. Flamin Hotz 10 just got expedited and arrived today, its Funkeiros e Progresso all fully contracted out, with royalties paid out directly to the artists. Shit is banging, green vinyl, green inside printing, spot gloss and of course some banging funk, out soon at your favorite record store with the full CD compilation out by the end of February. We had to get it expedited so I could take some down to Mr Catra, MC Gringo, Beto da Caixa, Cabide, Sargento and DJ Edgar. Saturday I plan on going to a real baile funk to see Sandrinho play in his home favela Borel. Meanwhile I'm missing Sany Pitbull and Carioca Funk Clube in another part of the cidade. Meanwhile, Saturday day and Sunday day is all about the blocos or street parades. What a tough life.
