Yes, it's The Don Juan Edition. Back in 1926, New York premiered its first movie featuring audio ever. Name of the movie: Don Juan. Of course. Now FMF is paying tribute by giving an audio movie for all to share. But get this, it's for FREE!
The Are & Brokn.Englsh :: Are X B
[Not sure if they are the underground supergroup, a la Meth & Red. But with a free joint like this one, you can't complain about two emcees going at it together. You can cold yank the plug on Are & B.E., but that'll be really bugged.]
[With the lack of support for female rappers not named Nicki Minaj these days, Audra The Rapper took a bold step by naming her mixtape after one of the best femcee albums of all time *cue Kanye*! Rest assured, this ain't nothing typical about this female rapper. She gives herself and herself only as she gives the state of VA a lift that Missy Elliott once held. Chick it out!]
[The story behind this group is very unexplainable. This joint is one of the best music that came out of nowhere I ever heard! It's a supergroup featuring Seer aka Zachary Field (Writer, singer, rapper), Father Dude (Writer, singer, producer, engineer), Konrad (Producer, singer, engineer, graphic artist), Illmind (Producer, engineer), and JK5 (Chief visual director). Definitely check 'em out!]
[*cues Seinfield bassy theme* Continuing with the primetime theme, Wale gives us "More About Nothing" which is anything but. Those who dig the D.C. native on previous mixtapes will mos def dig this one.]

Ever since Forever Famicom dropped, i been in hardcore retro game-mode! So during one of my random google searches this morning, i came across what i'd consider to be a godsend for all my fellow retro-gamers who want want/need some fresh sounds for their beloved smartphones- classic NES ringtones... for FREE!
There are two volumes available at the site of a self-proclaimed avid gamer/technology nut named Charles Williams... DOWNLOAD HERE!
...And speaking of ringtones, next Tuesday, i'll be releasing the first in a series of "Neosonic Tones". My Bandcamp site will be THE one & only place to get them, so stay tuned for more details top of the week...
Rob Kelly was invited to the cult segment "Fire In The Booth" on the 1xtra Hip-Hop Mix Show presented by Charlie Sloth on BBC and he didn't disappoint as he went in for 9 Minutes over Alchemist's "Bangers" & Young Money's "Roger That" Instrumental
Rob has been holding it down for his homeland for many years and has collaborated with everyone from Reef The Lost Cauze & Slaine to Memphis Bleek and Selah. Rob who previously made history by being the first Irish M.C ever to appear in XXL Magazine was delighted with the response to his performance
"I used to sit in my room and listen to Westwood and dream of being on BBC when I was a teenager and record all the performances, I heard Biggie on the station and nearly broke the rewind button and I knew I'd get on there someday"
Rob is embarking on a UK & European tour with long time collaborator and friend Memphis Bleek on his first solo tour without Jay-Z in the fall and is continuing work on his new album "Kell's Kitchen" which will feature a host of US and UK talent.
