Notorious B.I.G. x J Dilla = Modern Day Gangstaz.

Rest in peace to these two legends, B.I.G. and Jay Dee. This gem is not a mash-up, but a real Dilla-produced song.

“Modern Day Gangstaz” (also known as “The Ugliest” and “Dangerous MC’s”), a song produced by Dilla featuring vocals from The Notorious B.I.G., Busta Rhymes, and Labba, appeared in its original form on a mixtape in the late ’90s, and eventually surfaced in full-length form in 2007. The new version, however, is a cut-and-paste job using the verses recorded for Biggie’s posthumous Born Again album, for which a new beat was used from Nottz.

The Notorious B.I.G. – Ready To Die (The O.G. Version)

Nefarious! — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:07:47 +0000

This came out a WHILE ago, but my site wasn’t up yet to post it up. Seeing that today marks the 13th anniversary for his death, I think it’s a good time for people who haven’t heard it yet to catch up. This is the original version of Ready To Die before they got caught up in sample clearances and diddy redoing Pete Rock’s beat for “Juicy” and alla that. Download it and you’ll see what I mean.

Amor Jones – Dyin (Prod. know:Juander)

Nefarious! — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 06:43:50 +0000

This was on HiPNOTT Records Takeover, Volume 2 compilation put together by KevinNottingham.com but I felt like it didn’t get as much shine as it should’ve. I mixed the track, a while about and remixed it but that isn’t released (or finished) yet. Peep the joint below.
