Dj Scratch Top 5 DJ's Dead or Alive


There are different facets to history. For several years, AllHipHop has asked rappers to give us their Top 5 Rappers or DJs. Recently, we asked DJ Scratch for his Top 5 DJ's and the conversation turned out to be quite and education. So, educational was it, we got 10 DJs and decided to add it all to our rolling Black History homage. RIP JMJ.

A Tribute To The Great Musical Prophet Yabby You

Musicologists rate Yabby You among the great dub artistes of the 1970s, alongside Osbourne 'King Tubby' Ruddock and Augustus Pablo. His 1975 debut album,Conquering Lion, has been described as a 'true cornerstone of Jamaican roots music'

Yabby You was born in the Waterhouse community of Kingston and began recording in the early 1970s when roots-reggae was taking off internationally. One of his first songs was Conquering Lion which was recorded at Dynamic Sounds with Wailers bassist Aston 'Familyman' Barrett, guitarist Earl 'Chinna' Smith and Wallace on drums.

Yabby You recorded profusely. He worked with established musicians, including King Tubby, Sly and Robbie and saxophonist Tommy McCook, a founding member of the legendary Skatalites band.

His King Tubby's Prophesy of Dub and Blazing Horns featuring McCook and trumpeter Bobby Ellis, are considered Yabby You's best work.

He also produced songs by singers Wayne Wade and Michael Prophet, as well as deejays Big Youth, Dillinger, Tappa Zukie and Trinity.

"Cold Heat: Heavy Funk Rarities 1968-1974" series


Part 1 is the heavier and more storming of the 2, while the b-side tempers the barrage just a bit. If you’re familiar with J Rocc, and familiar with the Cold Heat comp, it’s easy enough to connect the dots — but if you’re a neophyte to either camp, you can trust us — this mix is a great splice of hard-hitting funk with pummeling beats! not a my upload the links comes directly from nowagainrecords.com

Very Insightful Information

COPYRIGHT CRIMINALS

Long before people began posting their homemade video mashups on the Web, hip-hop musicians were perfecting the art of
audio montage through sampling. Sampling — or riffing — is as old as music itself, but new technologies developed in
the 1980s and 1990s made it easier to reuse existing sound recordings. Acts like Public Enemy, De La Soul and the
Beastie Boys created complex rhythms, references and nuanced layers of original and appropriated sound. But by the early
1990s, sampling had collided with the law. When recording industry lawyers got involved, what was once called
“borrowed melody” became “copyright infringement.”

COPYRIGHT CRIMINALS examines the creative and commercial value of musical sampling, including the related debates over
artistic expression, copyright law and money. The film showcases many of hip-hop music’s founding figures like Public
Enemy, De La Soul and Digital Underground, as well as emerging artists such as audiovisual remixers Eclectic Method. It
also provides first-person interviews with artists who have been sampled, such as Clyde Stubblefield — James Brown's
drummer and the world's most sampled musician — and commentary by another highly sampled musician, funk legend George
Clinton.

Computers, mobile phones and other interactive technologies are changing our relationships with media, blurring the
line between producer and consumer and radically changing what it means to be creative. As artists find more inventive
ways to insert old influences into new material, COPYRIGHT CRIMINALS poses the question: Can you own a sound?
