Steinski – What Does It All Mean? 1983-2006 Retrospective
The back story is great: Steve Stein, collegiate dope-dealer-turned-suit at the Doyle Dane Bernbach ad agency, enters a hip-hop-remix contest with a pal in 1983 and smokes the competition. His entry, The Payoff Mix, is a funky train wreck of uncleared samples — the Supremes, Little Richard, Culture Club, Humphrey Bogart — crosswiring Grandmaster Flash’s mixology with the pop tune punch lines of Dickie Goodman’s Seventies novelty collage singles. Payoff, included here with its offspring Lesson 2 (James Brown Mix) and Lesson 3 (History of Hip Hop), inspired crate-digging producers from Prince Paul to DJ Shadow to Girl Talk, and permanently raised the bar for rap track makers. Influence aside, what’s just as impressive about this handsome anthology of barely legal rarities is how well tracks work as songs. The early party joints build and ebb with intractable momentum, and later pieces tell unlikely stories. “The Motorcade Sped On” samples newscasts on the JFK assassination; the chilling “Number Three on Flight Eleven” documents a flight attendant’s 9/11 call for help. And the hilarious, hour-long “Nothing to Fear” megamix proves that this guy didn’t just pioneer the mash-up, he’s still the outlaw genre’s dean.

It’s almost hard to believe that blatant racism still runs rampant in America in the 21st century.
But it’s complete “Jim Crow” down in Jena, Louisiana that includes:
“a tree for ‘whites only and nooses,
and a black high school student who was involved in a fight with a white student was convicted by an ALL white jury and faces a sentence of 22 years….
Watch the report and see the facts for yourself
So far 26953 people , including myself have signed an online petition to the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice.
Thanks to my favorite publication that cultivates creative values that speak through progressive channels of music, style, art, youth culture, media, politics, film, technology, nightlife and innovative thought, URB Magazine I got 2 VIP passes to saturday’s sold out show to the Rock The Bells concert in NYC!
The lineup included, Pharoahe Monch, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Supernatural, EPMD, The Roots, Cypress Hill, Wu Tang Clan and
Rage Against the Machine. Too bad that Nas was only doing the west coast leg of the the concert.
Mos Def & Talib Kweli
Hace Color!, It was so hot some people were passing out from the heat!
I was really looking forward to Public Enemy, too bad I couldnt get close enough.
They were in full effect complete with Professor Griff and the S1W’s.
When they did “Bring the Noise” the had Anthrax’s Scott Ian on guitar.
Flava Flav was milking his new found “Flava of Love” audience.
After Public Enemy did there thing he brought his 3 kids out, then asked if he could play the drums solo for awhile.
(He actually isn’t too bad on the drums)
Next up were The Roots, they ALWAYS give a good show.
Just as they went on I got into a debate with this guy who swore Black Thought was one of the top 5 greatest MC of All Time, and had the nerve to even muster the words “Eminem” in the same sentence.
My thing is why does everyone sleep on CL Smooth???…
DJ A. Vee!!
Me and HarvMoore back in the lounge
Took this short vid of this dude doing the windmill
Next up was Cypress Hill, who rocked it as they did when I saw them with George Clinton a few years ago.
Then there was Wu Tang Clan
It’s very exciting to see them on stage, but the performance doesn’t have as much energy when its just 8 dudes with microphones and no band to back them up. R.I.P. ODB
Rage Against the Machine
I’m glad they are back together and that Zach de la Rocha clarified a recent controversial position:
He has not called for President George W. Bush to be assassinated.
He wants him “tried as a war criminal and he should be hung and shot.” “The real assassins,” he added, “are Bush and Cheney.”)
After running through our drink tickets, Harv bought :
One hotdog and chicken tenders for a grand total of $15 dollars.
After that I decided to go price out the drinks.
Bottled Water= $3.50 (FREE is you were dying of heat exhaustion)
RockStar Energy Drink=FREE when you walked in, $3.50 when you got thirsty later on.
Bottled Beer= $7.00
As Amy Winehouse would say, “What kind of fuckery is this?”
Come vendors, its not the Metropolitan Opera, its a hiphop concert!
I was also very interested in the technology aspect since Sandisk was a major sponsor.
I heard they were giving away SD cards with exclusive content, etc, but didnt see any booth or anything.
Overall I had a good time, special thanks to Paul and Michael and the rest of the folks at Urb.
They’ve made these kind of racist statements about Maya Angelou. They’ve made them referring to Venus and Serena Williams as the animals, they should be in “National Geographic.”
JEFFREY BROWN: In another often quoted incident, Imus is reported to have said of the NewsHour’s Gwen Ifill, when she worked at the New York Times in the 1990s, “Isn’t the Times wonderful? It lets the cleaning lady cover the White House.”
Imus today denied ever saying that.
Whatever, he did say “Nappy Headed Ho’s” though.
Funny thing that the studio where Imus tapes his show for MSNBC is in Secaucus. NJ which is about 9.7 mi (about 18 mins) from Rutgers University.
Nobody isnt saying too much about his co-host who introduced the “hos” when he said “hardcore hos”
I wonder if these dudes would have said that a little closer to Newark, like on Market Street….lol
