[01.19.2010]25 Hip-Hop Things To Do When Winning the Lottery

Author: dotquan

How’s it going, Earmilk? My name’s Quan and I’m the newest addition to the Earmilk team. I was brought on to be mad intelligent and thoughtful and write long-ass essays about rap and shit. And it’s certainly been an eventful week between the disaster in Haiti, news of Wyclef Jean’s possibly shady charitable organization, the passing of Teddy Pendergrass, and now the passing of Killa Sha. But all of that sad news has got me in a sort of daze and I couldn’t think too coherently if I wanted to.

Thankfully, half of my day was really great the other day, so great that I fucked around and bought me a lottery ticket. I started thinking of all the great things I would do if I won the lottery and here’s a list of all the hip-hop-related things I would do:

  1. Release Detox. If I couldn’t force Dr. Dre to release Detox himself, I’d just buy the best beats from his ghost-producers, buy verses from his best ghost-writers and rappers, and pay someone like DJ Quik to master and oversee the whole project. Not exactly the same but close enough.
  2. Produce “The Egyptian Hip-Hop Concert.” Not with actual rappers of Egyptian descent (anyone know of any good ones?). But featuring the Hieroglyphics crew, Pharoahe Monch, Egyptian Lover, and Sun God (Ghostface’s son). I’d use the Luxor in Las Vegas as a venue.
  3. Travel to New York. To ride in a cab driven by Cappadonna. He can show me around the slums of Shaolin.
  4. Re-unite Da Band. So they can go get me some cheesecake and Cambodian breast milks.
  5. Visit Huntsville, Alabama, home of the hands-down illest hip-hop scene in the country right now.
  6. Make it rain in the club. Literally. I’d install a moon-roof ceiling into a strip club in Seattle and let the elements take over.
  7. Travel to Atlanta and go to Room 112. I’ll tell them Blocko sent me. I’ll make sure not to double-park by a hydrant though.
  8. Do drugs. All kinds of them. I’ll get hyphy, sip on some sizzurp, tip on them 44’s, whatever, whatever.
  9. Block Party 2. Let’s do this Mr. Chappelle.
  10. Buy medical coverage for Ma Dukes. And set up college funds for J Dilla’s kids. I kinda don’t care about lupus though, forreal, we all gonna die someday.
  11. YouTube Preview Image
  12. Get a Biz Markie doll/action figure. And a Ghostface Killah doll. (video above)

[10.26.2009]Jay Electronica – Previously Unreleased Tracks

Author: montrey

Jay Electronica is probably the next best MC that you might not have heard of. He’s got some deep lyrics and a flow that seems highly influenced by the likes of Nas and older MCs. He hasn’t officially released his debut album yet but hopefully that is completed soon since he just finally had a child with Erykah Badu and should have more time to hit the studio. But for now these three unreleased tracks will have to hold you over until that glorious day when he finally gives us the gold. Check out the tracks below and especially “Suckas” which is over a J Dilla beat:
