Touring The States: New Orleans, LA

Posted: 16 Jun 2009 02:00 PM PDT

Recently, we made one Louisiana post. It was from town called Shreveport, situated in the northwest part of LA State.

This one is coming out of New Orleans, dropped on Sheska Records, which is situated in a New Orleans suburb called Westwego. That would be all of the info I have; the rest of it you will find in the inset, inside of the download file.

The Kartel - Players Only Live Once (Philadelphia 1997)

Posted: 06 Jun 2009 12:57 AM PDT


Here it is, in response to popular demand. Today I'm bringing you a flawless album by 'The Kartel' out of Philadelphia. This is one of my all time favorite east coast groups. Sometimes when I am using tracks from albums for regional compilations like my New Jersey series, I tend to listen to the full album less after awhile. This generally occurs for a variety of reasons. However in the case of The Kartel, it's not for lack of continuity. This album is well done from start to finish. What you'll find is tight vocal skills and chemistry with clean production. It's the type of mid 90's east coast hip hop that has us all coming back for more, over a decade later. My own favorite tracks are probably, well 1-13. I hope you dig this classic Philly release as much as I do.
