OhSoYes! Radio Ep. 11

Yo! We took a break for a few weeks, but OhSoYes Radio is back on the grind. The "I was on vacation" edition brings up those topics that were of notable newsworthiness (lol) in the past few weeks including: Michael Vick, Brett Favre and Nas. Plus, Elijah offers up a fun game on Facebook.

Elzhi- D.E.M.O.N.S.

Busta Rhymes- Everything Remains Raw

Busta Rhymes- It's a Party

Common- Come Close

John Legend- Heaven

The Roots- Dynamite!

All beats produced by Sleaze, Just Plain Ant and Junior Wong

Video: Raekwon - "House of Flying Daggers"

Ft. Rebel INS, Ghostface Killah, & Method Man (Prod. by J Dilla)

All I can say is Raekwon is bringing the WU back. No way he can lose with a record this incredible. I feel the same way I felt when I heard "Incarcerated Scarfaces" back in the day. Dilla goes so hard with Wu.

Music: Luck & Ripps - The Catastrophic Connection

Good friend of mine & fellow JPS Artist Joey Ripps released a monster of an album tonight @ Midnight, through website blocSonic. I've been waiting to hear this joint in its entirety, so I'm very pleased! The Catastrophic Connection is a collaboration between Ripps, 13aDLuck & producer Catastrophe (hence the album title). Please, please ketchup and check this joint out!

What you’re about to listen to is a fantastic collection of raw, NYC style, boom-bap hip-hop. It’s packed with smooth soul-drenched beats, classic B-Boy braggadocio and introspective rhymes. Luck & Ripps’ vocal styles are both quite compatible, so their collaboration on this project feels natural and unforced. Catastrophe’s production throughout serves as the perfect bed for their verses to rest.

Music: 14KT - Nowalataz

The new project from 14KT is bangin'. This man has Twitter & the whole 'nets going nutso! And I'm falling right in line! Ketchup, please.

"Here it is..a project I unofficially had done since 2006'. It started when James Yancey a.k.a. J Dilla passed that February. To cope with the death of my favorite producer, who I liked to call my unofficial "musical mentor", I started making "donuts"...uncontrollably. I never planned to release any of the material out of respect for Dilla & his craft. I've shared some of the music with others, in which they would repeatedly ask me to hear it, so I decided to put a little something together and make it official. JUST FOR Y'ALL. This is a collection of beats created about 3 years ago. Some "donuts' style, some just around that era of 14KT beats. "Now & Laters" were always a fovorite candy of mine. I used to go to Mindells Pharmacy in Ypsilamti back in the day & buy ALL of them. Sadly, I even stole change from my grandma's(RIP) purse for them. They are addictive, yet fun to eat..a feeling I found mutual when making music at the time. Ironically, I fell back in love with "Nowalataz" around this era (ask my homey Sarah "Merk Merk", haha). Enjoy."

RIP John Hughes (Feb. 18, 1950-Aug. 6,2009)

Damn. John Hughes was one of the best American filmmakers of the 80's and 90's. The Breakfast Club was my fave; Lil' Sleaze might say Ferris Bueller's Day Off. And the whole 'effin world loves the monster hit that was Home Alone. Apparently he had a heart attack while taking his morning stroll. 59 years old he was. He will surely be missed.

Music: Vandalyzm - "Donny Freestyle"

New track up from the boy Vee Majorz via his Twitter page. Fresh off his disassociation with The Hall of Justus, Vandalyzm goes in with a freestyle for the people. Vibe out to this smooth ride. This joint is all Van's style too.

Video: Guy plays OoT blind

This guy plays my favorite game. Only he is blind. That automatically makes me wack! lol.

My name is Jordan and I have been blind since birth. I have always been a fan of Ocarina of Time, and here I will show videos of me playing through it (and other games such as Castlevania

, pokemon and possibly other Zelda’s) to the best of my abilities. To navigate on my Computer I use a program called JAWS. It reads the words to me and allows me to navigate my pc with ease…To type I’ve memorized the keys. Just so you know, I have done all of these bosses MANY times.
