Hip-Hop Listening Club of the Week #261: Kool Keith - Black Elvis/Lost in Space (1999)

Posted: 18 Sep 2018 02:58 PM PDT

Welcome to HHH Listening Club!

Today we'll be listening to Black Elvis/Lost in Space by Kool Keith

Background

Written by /u/yung_hokage_stef

For over 40 years Kool Keith, a.k.a Dr. Octagon, a.k.a Dr. Dooom, has held the title of being one of hip-hop's most bizarre and convoluted figures. Known for his unorthodox flows and absurd personas, along with his ludicrous and often grotesque lyrics (to which he claims spawned the horrorcore subgenre), Keith has left his trace all over hip-hop with one of the genre's most prolific discographies at over 30 albums. While it's safe to say quality control is not one of Keith's strengths (and he certainly has his fair share of duds) when he's on top of things, he really comes correct. Case in point: Black Elvis/Lost in Space.

Black Elvis/Lost in Space is a concept album told from two perspectives, hence the double title. Half of the album's tracks center around the Black Elvis character, an intergalactic larger-than-life rockstar and his outlook on the interstellar rap game (and more specifically why he is literally light years ahead of his arch nemesis: the wack MC). The other half details Keith on his misguided journey amongst the cosmos. Whether it's Elvis reminiscing about old alien flames or Keith becoming paranoid amongst the rise of a robot population, you're always gonna be met with borderline nonsensical bars, off kilter flows and funky space beats . Above all else, this album oozes personality from out its every pore and it's what keeps it from ever going stale, even with a meaty 68 minute runtime. Entirely self-produced, this raunchy space-opera is yet another testament to how ahead of his time Keith was.

MGK/Eminem beef update

Posted: 18 Sep 2018 07:32 AM PDT

MGK has been deleting numerous tweets about stanning for Eminem since Killshot was released with some great detective work by /u/2PointOBoy

MGK recently opened for Fall Out Boy and (allegedly) hid a Killshot shirt under a jacket, asked for a photo op with the fans having their middle fingers up to make it look like they were against the diss, according to comments on his IG from people who were there in this tweet people were none too pleased

Now there's a video floating around of him (allegedly) being booed for the entire duration of Rap Devil after the fact, this video is fake and is this video with piped in boos

This whole shit is petty but seeing as no one wants to make a collective thread on it here ya go.

Let me know if there's anything else to add.

How Do I Make a Living as a Producer? [OC]

How Do I Make a Living as a Producer?

by T. Perry Bowers

I see this question a lot on forums. People ask me what they can do to become a producer. Even though the majority of my business is renting studio space, I produce quite a few projects every year. Right now I'm producing a project for a guy who has a record deal with Sony. He's making a website and creating content. We will be launching it in the fall. I'm more like a project manager on this deal, but you could call it producing.

Production is a wide field. I know a lot of guys who call themselves producers who just produce beats. I don't say "just" because I think it's lesser to be a beat producer than another kind of producer. Making good beats is a valuable skill. (I could use a few more good beat producers around my studio). I say "just" to delineate between the kinds of producers.

The other kind of producer is a classic music producer. He's the guy that is in the studio while the record is being made. Tweaking the music so that he can deliver it to the powers that be to their satisfaction.

Then there is the executive producer. He often funds the project either out of his own pocket or with someone else's money. He makes sure the money is there and the deals are made. He often will be the one who sees that the marketing gets done and that the album sells.

In order to make a living as a beat producer, you need to start out by creating a boat load of beats. You might want to think about spending ten thousand hours making beats. Your competition does. The best guys in this field live and breathe beats. Their beats are so dope people pay big bucks to sing or rap over them.

As a beat producer, you need to have your business locked down. You need to have contracts ready to sign. You can lease beats or sell beats.

Selling a beat can be simple. Name your price. The artist or client pays the fee. The client or artist owns the beat free and clear.

Selling a beat can also be complex if you want to retain partial ownership. If you want to retain partial ownership, you will need to have a much more complex purchase document, you will need to have your beats registered at the Library of Congress*.* You will need to have a business registered in your state (unless you use your social security number which I highly discourage for tax and liability reasons). You will need to have your business registered with a music monitoring company such as BMI, ASCAP or SESAC.

When you retain partial ownership of a beat. You could potentially receive royalties from that song if the song becomes a hit. The registration with the library of congress and your monitoring company will show how much of the royalties are owed to you. They keep track of what percentage of the song is owned by you.

Your monitoring company monitors the airwaves, venues and digital realms. If your song comes on their radar (becomes a hit) they send you a check every quarter for what you are owed. If your song is played publicly, at a venue, on the radio, on TV or film, the people who own those venues pay the monitoring company. The monitoring company divides that money up among the artists it represents.

Think of leasing beats like leasing a car. When an beat producer leases a beat to an artist (i.e. rapper or singer), that artist can use that beat for a specific amount of time. A typical lease is for one year. So, for that year, that artist can use and make money from that beat. The producer can retain ownership of that beat, if they want, during the lease as well. So the artist and the beat producer would be making money during that one year, if the beat were to become a hit.

The trick to leasing a beat, from an artist's standpoint is to make sure you have an option to renew. Hopefully your option is in perpetuity as well. You don't want your song to become a hit and then not have the option to maintain "ownership" of that beat by means of a lease. If you don't have an option to renew, all the revenue of that song will go to the beat producer when your lease is up.

Also, if you do have the option to renew, make sure not to miss your deadline. If you miss it, you may never have a chance to renew and if the producer does give you back the option, you can bet the price will go up if your song is a hit.

So hopefully this will give you some ideas about how to monetize your career as a beat producer. There are many other ways, especially at higher levels, but this is a good place to start to learn how to implement contracts and collect money.

I'm sorry to say, there is no easy way to become a classic producer type. Any successful classic producer type that you hear about has been associated with a hit record in some way. There is no sure fire way to make that happen.

My recommendation would be to start to hang around bands and artists that you think have a lot of potential. Help them with anything they need. Like billionaire producer Jimmy Iovine (Springsteen, Petty, U2, Apple Music, Beats by Dre) would say, "be of service". Maybe one day, you'll be in the studio when a hit is created. Maybe you'll have something to do with that hit. Maybe you can parlay it into something bigger.

The classic producer is all about creating magic. Sometimes it's about long hours in the studio. Sometimes it's a fleeting moment. Hit records are accidents. Constantly hanging around talented artists will make the producer accident prone.

If you want to be an executive producer, you better have some cash, or access to it. These guys just make things happen. Making things happen takes money. When you have money, you can take credit for things with which you had nothing to do.

If you are financing an artist's record, you can stipulate that you want a producer's credit even if you never stepped foot in the studio.

Now, if you want to be an executive producer and you have no money, you will have to work up to it. It goes back to what Jimmy Iovine says, "be of service". Help artists. Help them get coffee for a session. Help them load out to shows. Help them schedule their sessions. Help them write songs. Use whatever tools you have in your toolbox to help them become successful. Help them find money!

Once you find some money, make a good deal for the band that won't tie them up in debt for ten years. Make good deals and get some money for yourself. Always work yourself into the deal. Have no shame about claiming your place in the organization.

Be relentlessly helpful! Be impeccably shrewd with the band's interests. Never get greedy, but always take what's yours.

I know these aren't easy answers or quick fixes. It's all about putting in your ten thousand hours. Put in the time doing the right things and something good will come for sure.

I'm trying to track down all of the old 03 Greedo releases dating back to 2008. Here's what I've found so far.

Posted: 18 Sep 2018 01:57 PM PDT

I'm trying to find all of 03 Greedo's music. Here's his discography as far as I know:

Released as Greedy Giddy:

Sign My Cast (2008)

Mentioned in this upload on his old YouTube channel but I'm not sure if it was ever released.

I Can't Sleep (2009)

AKA 'I Can't Sleep 12:24AM The Teaser Tape,' it was released June 19, 2009 on DatPiff, where it's still available for download and on his old YouTube channel

Bi-Polar Disc 1 (2010)

Available on DatPiff thanks to a fan upload but it seems all original download links are gone.

Bi-Polar Disc 2 (2010)

Used to be on HNHH along with Bipolar 3, Bipolar 4, Everybody Weak, and others. Here's an old screencap from Greedo's tumblr showing it used to be there, but they've all been removed.

Bipolar 3 (2011)

He put this one on his old Youtube in its entirety and as far as I know that's the only way to hear it.

Bipolar 4 (2011)

Can't find this one either - only the cover art.

Money, Powder, Regrets (2012)

This one is available on MyMixtapez for streaming/downloading within the app.

Everybody Weak (2012)

Also available on MyMixtapez.

Everybody Weak 2 (2013)

Can't find anything about this one except for four single uploads on his old YouTube:

No Bible on Dash

Dead People Freestyle

Brand New Niggas

Girls (Bitches)

Released as 03 Greedo:

Purple Summer (2016)

Available on Spotify

Used to be available for purchase on Amazon along with Money Changes Everything, but those have been removed.

Purple Summer 2: Sun Don't Shine (2016)

Available on Spotify, also on iTunes and Amazon.

Purple Summer 03: Purple Hearted Soldier (2017)

Available on Spotify and a fan reuploaded it to Soundcloud as well.

First Night Out (2017)

Available on Spotify and also on Soundcloud along with The Wolf of Grape Street & God Level

Money Changes Everything (2017)

Available on Spotify

The Wolf of Grape Street (2018)

Available everywhere

God Level (2018)

Available everywhere

Pretty much I just wanted to post this in hopes of finding someone who snagged the Greedy Giddy releases back when they first came out. 'Cause there's a decent amount of his old stuff that isn't available and I'd love to hear it.

FREE GREEDO

Christian Clancy - "i don't know what to say. it's not real yet. you were more alive recently than i've seen in awhile. i feel like u kept things away from me at times, which ud never admit, but the shift was palatable.. it felt real... the clarity and purpose in your voice about life and ur future... joking about how close ur abs were to a 6 pack (debatable)..... perfect? no. who is. but the demons weren't steering and the smiles were genuine. maybe at least until u were alone. you were as selfless a human being as i've ever known. everyone else's happiness came first. never rocked the boat. maybe u should of. but that wasn't ur style. my favorite thing about you is how u treated chloe. that said everything. i think youth had that innocence you craved, free from all the heaviness inside you.. the heaviness that got you. it's a lesson for those of us that cook our emotions on the inside. a lesson to those who still feel invincible. this is gonna take awhile. you were an incredible human with an incredible family and friends who were all excited about the path you were on. you were so proud of "swimming" - it was the album you wanted to make. u did that and it's brilliant. i'm heartbroken. i'm angry. but i love you and im gonna feel instead of cook this time. i'm grateful to have known such a beautiful human being whose main goal in life outside of his art was to make everyone around him ok. love u, malcolm."

Mac always stood out to me because he was a genuinely kind and down to earth person that would go out of his way to look out for people. I'm happy for the music we made together and thank you for impacting so many peoples lives."

MixedByAli - "Woke up sick thinking damn how could I have helped. Can't believe this . Until we meet again my boy . I'm sorry"

Vince Staples - "I must've died and went to heaven...currently in shock it'll hit me in a second. What's your question? You need a blessing right? Or you just wondering what heavens like." I'll see you soon. Thank you for everything... for all of this. I love you.

Julia Kelly - "Today I gained the most beautiful angel. My heart is hurting. Shattered. Today I lost one of the most amazing humans that has ever entered my life. Malcolm McCormick, I would give anything to have you back. Our memories will never be erased. I am forever grateful for you. Thank you for your laughter and endless amounts of love. You brought me out of my shell and broke me free from my shyness. The most gentle soul. Your mind was like no other. Waking up next to you was a dream. Thank you for always making me feel at home. I'm going to miss your sweet forehead kisses and affection. I would give anything to talk to you one last time and express my love. I love you forever, Malcolm."

Angela Yee - "Heartbroken to hear the news about Mac Miller. My condolences to his family and loved ones, and I feel blessed to have known him"

Diplo - "My first day on tour in Australia I saw Mac in the lobby .. he was having a small fling with one of my dancers and asked her to dye his hair pink before tour started.. and then he wrote this dope song called pink bathwater (one of thousand songs you probably will never hear) . He drank whiskey at major lazer after-party is til 4 am.. went back to festival at midday .. played piano like Mozart with the sun blazing down on him.. throw up on stage . Cry a bit, rap some more then pass out in the grass and text me a few hours like where we going next .. next five years I see this guy everywhere .. best people I could always count on.. we made a lot of music in my first studio in Burbank.. he kept getting better and better .. this dude lived so hard was so amazing and talented and still extremely missunderstood.. another video is me and @skrillex on New year's Eve at MSG and Mac just came out at midnight like he was he headliner in his Riddler suit. Fuck I couldn't stop laughing .. he was always there in the middle of the best moments .. and if there wasn't a vibe he created it and made the room brighter .. he radiated positivity, but there wasn't a balance.. the other side was he was deeply insecure and always found substitution for what was missing in his life .. For a second think about the people around you and make sure they are always aware of the love .. don't take a second forgranted. They might need you and you don't even notice it because your too busy .. always gonna love you Mac"

Classic Wu-Tang verses mashed up with a recent critically acclaimed UK Jazz Album

Posted: 17 Sep 2018 08:57 AM PDT

Someone took the time to re-edit Kamaal Williams' recent album 'The Return', a fantastic piece of new wave UK Jazz, and lay some classic Wu-Tang verses on top. The motivation likely comes from the fact that, as well as being a great Jazz record that acts as a perfect backdrop to some of our favourite 90s hip hop moments, it's producer Kamaal Williams' real name is Henry Wu.

The album is available on Bandcamp for download: https://blackfocusrecords.bandcamp.com/album/kamaal-vs-wu-tang-snips-re-edits
