Montreal Jazz Fest Dispatch Day One: Excuse My French
Posted on June 30, 2008 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
Although I tell people that I “used to go to Montreal all the time,” the truth is that I’ve only been there twice. I guess I’m just a tremendous bullshit artist; either that and/or I lived so hard on those short trips that I felt like a frequent flyer.
My first adventure was freshman year [...]

1992 was an ill year for me. I was a snotty 11 year old Charlotte Hornet Starter Jacket wearing piece of shit little scumbag. Between Using You Illusion and The Chronic – my speakers had me using words like indo-nesia, g-funk era, and loc’d out at the breakfast table – and blocking the TV air [...]

If there’s on thing about summer time I revel in – it’s the BBQ action. Never have I not (peep the grammar) — ahem– Never have I not been a fan of going to these functions and catching a sweet second degree off the coals of some grill. Matter of fact, I took in quite [...]
How To (And Not To) Interview A Commercial Rapper
Posted on June 27, 2008 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Hip Hop | 1 Comment
I saw my boy go through some serious shit today. I won’t tell you who, or where, or any of that junk, but here’s what happened: A hip-hop commentator who favors underground flavor sat down with a generic hood rapper for an interview. Assuming the customary postures, the mainstream MC got into his [...]
Baltimore Love Thing

Err’body that knows me knows I got mad love for my hometown of Baltimore, even though we don’t give much love back out to the world. Our main exports are crab cakes, crabs like the ones on your dick, heroin, The WIre, Dru-Hill, Cal Ripken, urban blight but most of all–B-MORE CLUB. That’s why I [...]
Vinyl Lives

Trees, this one’s for you buddy. Gais Faltima has produced a sleek, sexy all-in-one system that crosses over from format to format. It has a turntable, CD player (MP3/WMA compatible), plus USB and memory card port, so aside from banging Raekwon’s purple tape there ain’t much it can’t do. Best of all, it allows format-to-format [...]
The Can Festival – London, UK

I guess today is more or less Banksy day for me – rather than Wu-Tang Wednesdays (as planned). There’s not much I can do without the ability to post .mp3s. I’ll try to keep it real visual for ya’ll muhfukkaz.
Anyway – I was on another blog earlier today that I frequent quite often (Grandgood), and [...]

The Best Damn Ghostface Article You Ever Read
Posted on June 25, 2008 by Chris Faraone - Filed Under Wu-Tang Wednesdays | 2 Comments
For this first of many Wu-Tang Wednesday installments to come, I unearthed this feature that I penned about Ghostface two years ago for Boston’s Weekly Dig. In addition to being one of my favorite articles that I ever wrote, it’s also useful resource for Wu-Tang geeks. In the interview, I asked Ghostface about his notoriously [...]
