KING DOVES

Today Camu’s King of Hearts LP is officially released on Fat Possum/Definitive Jux.  A long time coming to say the least and a bittersweet day for me and many others I’m sure.  I can’t stress how much this record means to my life and I think the world needs to hear every shred of this masterpiece.  Artists need to study and appreciate the gift bestowed upon our community.

Earth shattering sound, equally dirty as it is beautiful, KOH is testament to the work Camu put in when he was still with us.  You don’t want to let this one pass you by.  Trust.  My favorite song on the record is “The Moment.”

“everybody’s fuckin pussy”

this shit is gold.

mad props to the homie Damien Neva for Ford Models who really just makes everything he touches look dope. A little something about EL‘s upcoming instrumental album dropping in August.

I think this mixtape has become an anomaly the way people are always asking me where they can find it and how they can get it. I don’t even have a good answer. It came out a while back I think in ’06 …so here it is and I won’t mention it again bc I don’t like to look back. I threw it up at the lastfm free download section.
