Chicago Underground: Nacrobats – A In The Square @Mike_Eagle @mrbeasy @culturepower45 @PsalmOne @ThaioneDavis @PugsAtomz @Infinito2017 @thesselonious

Nacrobats Is truly what Chicago underground Hip-Hop in the 90’s was about dope beats, bars, and sounding unique. Following in the footsteps of Common, All Natural and The Molemen. The Nacrobats became an institution for upcoming rappers, producers, dancers, artist, and party promoters of the time. Their DIY aesthetic and over 40+ releases (solo and as a collective) have laid the ground work for many artists there today. This compilation scratches the surface of some of the best music they recorded over the First 10 years or so. Crowd favorites and Cult classics Like Century 21, Paperz, Be like you, and Rock the world are all included. Some of the standout members featured on this compilation are Open Mike Eagle, Psalm One, Thaione Davis, Pugs Atomz, Infinito 2017, and Kenny Keyz. “Nacrobats was the precursor to today’s Chicago crews like Save Money (Vic Mensa/ Chance the Rapper) and Pivot Gang.(Saba)..in terms of being dedicated to the culture while progressing it. “ #culturepower45 #limitededition all art by Pugslee Atomz (limited bonus items for a limited time only) #nacrobats

New Music: Infinito 2017 – She Said I Talk Black Episodes of Ebony Sugarwalls #75dab @infinito2017 @joeleftpromo

An album unlocking some of the more earnest stories experienced twisted into short episodes of a mysterious past. Infinito 2017 has designed a long player that sits right in the middle of an Apocalyptic Food desert of Popeye’s Chicken Sandwiches leading humans to realize that the internet is not reality, combining specified impressions into Experimental Jazz and Afro beat driven measures in the form of Hip Hop converted into an isolated musical. The songs on the album “She Said I Talk Black Episodes of Ebony Sugarwalls” were written over the span of an ecliptic longitude tropical apparent path where energy develops into an even more well-built yet unavoidable time of the year that’s considered to have bottomless passion. The first part of the title “She Said I Talk Black,” comes from a time of enrichment and instruction that lead to one of the students letting Infinito 2017 know he speaks like a regular soul brother and not like a robot or a person who talks as if his behavior is ruled by Indian schooling from colonizers. The Episode of Ebony Sugarwalls series was written from a short play also written under Infinito 2017’s supervised name Marcellous Lovelace about the 1980’s era Black Adult movie stars or Ebony colored woman in Pornography. The theoretical examination material from VHS and Beta Max Tapes that were collected by close relatives, had very heartfelt narratives as told by some of the more interesting characters in his developmental understanding. The album has 12 stories of positive vibes from free thinking African American Sex Workers, Sciences Fiction dystopian observations and poverty driven accounts of despair. Infinito 2017 communicates with absolute clarity on each topic with B Boy rhymes and hooks over Dion Brown produced all the compositions that take you on a journey of recurring euphoria after each listen. Sugarwalls was arranged by ML7102 at the last real black people anywhere collective studios.

Rest In Power: Condolences to DJ Black Panther / Michael Eric Hill

With our deepest sympathies we send our condolences to DJ Black Panther. A great Producer DJ from New York City. Your contributions to Hip Hop will always be remembered. @Manekinekopro

DJ Black Panther: From the moment that Michael Eric Hill was born, he was different. Brooklyn hospital doctors told his parents that he would only live three weeks. A thyroid condition his mother had was believed to have been passed along to her son, but Odie Hill had faith. She not only believed her son would survive after spending three weeks hooked up to tubes in the hospital but being a deeply religious woman, she also believed her son was meant for nothing less than greatness. Raised in the neighborhood of Fort Greene, Brooklyn amidst such artists as Spike Lee, Chris Rock and Rakim, Michael was surrounded by an undeniable energy that he could not escape. At an early age, hip-hop not only found its way into his home but into his blood. Throwing concerts for his toys by gathering them around the portable turntable in front of his Spiderman poster in the living room, young Michael would play a mixture of songs by U.T.F.O., Roxanne Shante, Rod Stewart and Rick Springfield. This varied selection of records would stay with him and help him develop his production and deejaying style in the future. However, it was not until the day his brother brought home the Run-DMC record “Sucker MCs” that his life forever changed. Michael Hill later took on the name DJ Black Panther and began releasing Monthly underground hip-hop mixtapes at a time when independent music was not at the forefront. He was determined to carve his own path in the music industry. DJ Honda took notice to his tapes and started buying them directly to sell in Japan, furthering Panther’s name as well as his brand. After the release of a double mixtape, Panther had enough money to buy what would become his production weapon of choice, the MPC 200XL. In 2003 Black Panther put out his debut album “The Darkest Night Ever” on Third Earth Music. All 17 tracks received nothing but positive feedback and publicity from his fans and critics. The well-known website http://www.Allhiphop.com featured him in the “Breeding Ground” section and Elemental Magazine, Urb, XLR8, http://www.undergroundhiphop.com and more all agreed that a fresh new talent had emerged. In 2005, after getting back behind the turntables at clubs Panther hit the studio to work on his sophomore album, “My Eternal Winter”. The project proved to be not just a follow-up, but also a step above. “My Eternal Winter” has generated a lot of buzz for Black Panther through reviews and interviews from around the world. The second single from “My Eternal Winter“, entitled “The Half“, featured Grammy Award-winning songstress Maya Azucena and peaked at the number 2 position on the internet music charts. Also with the release of the album, “My Eternal Winter” Panther started his digital music label Manekinekopro, which has released music from Respect Tha God (Perverted Monks, Jeru, Afu-Ra). Respect single “I Rap 4” recently topped the Charts on all the industry gauges (Rapattacklives, recordbreaker.com), Heatmakerz latest Release “Ra Jah Ru meets The Heatmakerz” also found a home on Manekinekopro. And most recently Manekinekopro records has been responsible for the ReEmergence of the legendary emcee NINE (Whatcha Want, Make or Take). Panther released “Shots Fired” by NINE(Brand Narcotic/Manekinekopro). However, do not get it wrong Black Panther is still very much a recording artist and he is Hard at work on his third offering entitled “The Soul Eater”, pack with surprises and his ever-evolving sound. The future holds many musical endeavors, and you may ask what is next? A full-length album with the Grammy Award-winning singer Maya Azucena will be a great start.
