Heavy D - Nothin’ But Love (Statik Selektah’s T.R.O.Y. Blend/Remix)

After the untimely passing of Heavy D the other day, Statik Selektah has created this incredible tribute during an iChat with Lord Sear about the death of the rapper - he brings together Nothin' But Love by Heavy and the all-time Pete Rock & CL Smooth classic, T.R.O.Y. The perfect way to remember another legend that is gone far too soon.

Pete Rock & Smif-N-Wessun - Roses (Feat. Freeway) x Feel Me (Feat. Rock of Heltah Skeltah & Bun B)

Here are my two favourite joints from Pete Rock & Smif-N-Wessun's upcoming collaborative album, Monumental, which will be available to download on June 28th. Pete has provided the entire production for the album, as well as vocals on several key tracks, including the title track itself. These two feature ex-Rocafella signee Freeway, Rock of Heltah Skeltah and Hip-Hop legend Bun B - on top of the singles/leaks, this gives you on idea of what you can expect from the rest of the release. Guaranteed to be one of the best Hip-Hop albums of the year.

Pete Rock Tells All: The Stories Behind His Classic Records

Similar to the DJ Premier article, Complex recently caught up with legendary Hip-Hop producer Pete Rock to find out some of the stories behind his greatest hits (solo, CL and productions). Complex always seem to smash it when it comes to stuff like this, and it's safe to say that this article is no expection. I also have no doubt that he will be adding a few more classics to the vault on June 28th when his collaboration album with Smif N Wessun finally drops. One of the all-time greats - arguably the greatest. Read the full article HERE.

Recently he has released a new instrumental album called Loop Amplitude, which sees him do Jazz re-works of 18 classic 1990s Hip-Hop tracks. If you like Hip-Hop, then you need this in your life. T.R.O.Y.

The Joy

The latest addition to the G.O.O.D. Friday series. This is another why reason people should stop complaining about the tracklist for the album. This now means we have 9 additional tracks already, which makes 22 tracks overall when you get the album and that’s before we even think about the KanYe & Jay LP. He is single handedly changing the game and all people seem to do is complain. There are far too many ungrateful people in this world. The Joy.
