Novelists in the Netherlands!



More Novelists news..
I found a Dutch blog spot where they seem to be taking a liking to "Bookends".. heres some quotes that I translated with google translator:






"Oldskool wonderful atmosphere on this album. But also occasionally as a delicious Jazzy Treats on beat with live instruments. The Raps are excellent care and the album is a beautiful whole."

"Hmmzz, then I go this soon but try!"

"Indeed, this sounds fun."

"Find the MC at times against what traps. Is not to say that this does not listen to more falls. It all has something refreshing. And, unlike the majority of the HipHop that suits today. I think this is the next time I agree more often go to listen to. Maybe it grows into something fun ..."

"I came back to veels little hip-hop albums from 2008've heard, so there was some change.
This is very nice. Indeed, a free oldskool sound, a fine rapper and not so full production. It all sounds Friday and spontaneously generated. Very promising act!"

Heres the link with it already translated:

The "O" in Obama


I have to give props to my big brother Sol Sender for helping to make Mr. Obama president a reality.  Read about the infamous logo he and his team created in an article from the New York Times:

"Like Us" by Bambu




This is another great video put together by the homie Tad Nakamura. I see my brother ET put in some work on it too!

CZA comes hard on the beat, Queen Herstory blesses the intro, and damn, don't those vocals sound clean?! - at least cleaner than the closet they were recorded in... hmm... but maybe not as clean as the Jordans above the mic!

Go get Exact Change y'all!

Look out for the Fatgums and Bambu EP, which will be coming out soon. Well, at least hopefully soon. Actually, probably not for a minute, unless we knock it out this winter break! Here's a sneak peek:

Fatgums' Med-School Factoid of the Week

Jamie Lee Curtis has testicles inside of her abdomen. She is genetically a man but her testosterone receptors don't work. This made it impossible for her to develop male secondary sex characteristics. During puberty, the high levels of unused testosterone in her body got converted to estrogen, causing her to develop her "bangin'" body. Sorry to all of those who crushed on her back in the day.
