ALBUM DOWNLOAD: Donnie Goines Breakfast Club

Donnie Goines drops his second free full-length, this one in inspire by the John Hughes classic film. Seems all the new rappers are up on the ’80s suburban comedy steez.

“The project title derives from the classic movie and is meant to showcase my versatility and growth, but instead of different characters in a classroom, you have different musicians in a studio. All from different walks of life, different perspectives and different ideas which in the end tie together to create an eclectic blend of music and sounds.”_Donny Goinse

INTERVIEW: Exile ‘Reimaging the Instrumental CD’

Go to any hip-hop show and almost everyone from the artists performing to the audience congregating will at some point repeat these six words: Hip-Hop is not on the radio. While this sentiment for better representation and balance is echoed by nearly everyone in the hip-hop community, there is at least one DJ from Los Angeles, California who believes the platform has tremendous value for the Hip-Hop culture.

With the album being completely comprised of samples from L.A. radio it isn’t an exaggeration to say that this is a project that will redefine how we look at instrumental albums. URB caught up with Exile to find out more about the concept behind L.A. Radio, to discuss his next …

Madlib to Release WLIB AM

Madlib’s latest release, WLIB AM: King of the Wigflip, will be dropped by Barely Breaking Even in the fall of 2008. Apparently Madlib will stray from his world rhythms and return to a more west-coast, hip-hop/R&B vibe. Like usual, many guests fill the slots in this closing to BBE’s Beat Generation series, which J Dilla opened them with.

Guests include, but are not limited to: Guilty Simpson, Oh No, Talib, Karriem Riggins, Frank N Dank, and many more. Go here to sign up for more info, and peep the track listing below.

WLIB “plays like the days when AM radio ruled the airwaves, transmitting a crackling, low-fi m

HUGE News on Dilla Colab’

It seems that Delicious Vinyl Records will be releasing an album for Dilla’s brother, Illa J, that has no release date or title as of yet. Illa J relocated from Detroit to Los Angeles after his brother’s death to start Yancey Boys Studio, using his brother’s equipment. This studio is where family magic is being made…Illa J has taken unreleased Dilla beats and worked them into an album where he will be MCing over the beats.

Mike Ross, founder of Delicious Vinyl, said that in the early years Dilla had given him some beats that piled up but never got released. Ross took these to Illa J to make this record. Ross saw these beats as Illa J’s “birthright,” and given the musical talent of the Yancey family, knew that Illa J would not dissapoint in making …
