-Afu-Ra - body of the life force

Yes! Afu Ra!! Hadn't heard from him for a while but recently saw him on facebook and just earlier today he posted this preview of his new single. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=79 ... =2&theater
definitely still rugged
Same with Royce and Premier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAZ96Xoegyc
Killer Mike and El-P were recently on Microphone Check on NPR. Still need to cop their new one.
Anyone check out Shady XV?

Jeru the damaja
Alkaholiks
Mecca & soul brother lp
Wu

Yes!!! New Wu coming soon as well! Alkaholiks Coast 2 Coast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DE8pp-Z_EtM Crazy to think about how I heard Madlib on that album years before I heard anything else from him or had any idea how influential he'd be.

Also Busta. He has an awesome cameo on the new one from Souls of Mischief, which is great. They were also recently on Mic Check.

Oh shit, this Premier and Bumpy Knuckles video just got published. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUNoXR434r0

Just realized they sampled Nautilus on track 7 of Coast 2 Coast. That's how long its been since I listened to it. Yet I know half the lyrics by heart. I like that expression "I know it by heart." My brain forgets recently acquired vital information but something deeper, be it the heart, soul or just a deeper part of the mind, will never forget the music that moves it. This song comes to mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsqZTY2Msgw

Wu Tang on David Letterman http://www.okayplayer.com/news/wu-tang- ... video.html
Missing Ghostface, Raekwon and Gza but still cool to see them doing their thing. No group that I can think of was ever more raw, relevant and popular simultaneously.
One more thing. This is off the subject but I also just saw this video of a nearby SP brother rocking the pads in Kansas City. The video was shared on facebook by SP World collaber Padin Windu, now known as Hummus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsBl_E_ ... e=youtu.be
