Speech hooked up with Chali 2na of Jurassic 5 for this track; great news! Highly anticipating 'Grown Folks Table'!

Can't get enough of these guys, so here's another album!

Never Mind

Yes, I have 5 invites to give away! Last time the contest was kind of a success, so I decided to make up another one.
This time it's no real contest, just something so The Find Magazine will get promoted a little bit more!

Wanna participate? Download (deleted) to find out what you have to do.

Thanks.


I decided to end this contest. I was wrong and connected The Find Magazine with downloading, what I don't want to do. The Find Magazine is a project where we want to support Hip Hop with, without offering downloads like Musical Schizophrenia.

I still stick to the fact that downloads aren't killing Hip Hop like some people say. I offer downloads on Musical Schizophrenia so people can listen to an album before they buy it. But, I can't say it enough, also buy the album after you downloaded it.

I am supporting Hip Hop with The Find Magazine, and offering free albums on Musical Schizophrenia; is it right or wrong? I don't know. Tell me if you know it. I am thinking about this paradox for quite a while, but I still don't know if it is right what I am doing..

- Heaps

Ps) Still wanna thank The Truth for being honest and dropping his thoughts.





Still haven't read The Find Magazine?

About the poll

I asked your opinion about posting video's/movies on our blog, because I got a few complaints about it and I was wondering what everyone else thinks about it.

You definitely made your point; 53 % voted for 'No, please stick to albums'.
So that's why I ask my co-writers to not post a lot of video's. A great video, trailer or something is cool, but our main priority is music! So if possible, post a link to the song instead of a video, thanks!



That's a video you really have to see, so this is the last one I post!

All I have to say is I prefer "pre-Fergie" Black Eyed Peas than to today's. I've heard many people say that these 3 dudes sound similar to Tribe Called Quest, but I don't think we can compare Black Eyed Peas to ATCQ. They both have their own unique styles, but I'm just puttin that out there. Give it a listen though!

Enjoy homies!

P.S. As Heaps always emphasizes: Support your favourite artists; buy albums, go to shows or buy some merchandise!

PB Wolf teamed up with Charizma in the early-'90s to produce an uptempo album "Big Shots." However, the death of emcee Charizma in 1993 saw the album being shelved for nearly a decade, until PB wolf finally released it on Stones Throw Records in 2003. The album brings together funk and soul production along with dope lyrics to keep your blood pumpin'.

Jesus Shuttleworth send me this (thanks!) and I LOVE it! Panacea (who made the amazing album The Scenic Route) hooked up with a live-band and recorded this album under the name of RPM. I also recieved their second album which will be up soon!

edit: Paws noticed me about the fact that this was a group before Panacea. They just didn't got lots of recognition back then, more when they formed Panacea. My bad for the wrong info!

I am not gonna post a link to download this new EP. Arts has a feature (Interview) in the first issue of our magazine. He put effort in the interview and replied really quick to us and we really appreciate that. Next to that, Arts makes great music so it is definitely worth the money.

Just to remind you something that's really important, although it might sound weird to hear from me (the founder of this blog):


Support the artist, buy music!


The links on our blog are for preview-purposes only, please keep that in mind!

Tonedeff has a expert and unique multi-syllabic rhyme scheme, and his ability to twist any subject into a work of art makes the album one of my favorite QN5 releases. The album has some good mix of serious songs, as displayed in the first preview, then there are song that provide some comedic relief as displayed in the second preview.

Alright guys, since the boss is away I'm gunna be doing an extra couple posts this week. Here's a gem of an album that you will be keeping on repeat for weeks if you like trip hop. Emancipator is a Canadian trip hop artist who is on Nujabes' label. Nujabes and Emancipator have very similar styles; If you like one, you'll definitely like the other. This is his first and (so far) only album, and every second of it is dope. The song I put in the preview, and that I listed as track 15 in the album is actually not in the real album. It's a track that I found on his myspace. I feel it's one of his best songs, and I had to let you all hear it. Make sure you let me know what your favourite song off this album is! Alright, enjoy!!

On A Holiday To Spain...

That's right, finally time for a holiday! I worked a lot (but next to that I had a lot of parties and lots of good times), but now it's time to enjoy sun, beer and music to the fullest!

For a full week I will be chilling at Mallorca (Spain)! I am not sure if I will be able to connect to Internet, but hopefully you'll understand I am not gonna focus on Internet/Musical Schizophrenia.. Beer, music, sun, edit: girls ;) and the beach/pool are my first priority! :)

This week you'll get less updates, although the other writers of the MS-Team (hopefully ;) ) will make sure that you'll still get great music, also without my own personal effort!

Anyway, have a good week and please enjoy the posts of the other writers of Musical Schizophrenia!
