BLACK BELT JONES

If you have never had the pleasure of watching 'Black Belt Jones', you need to do so immediately.

If you are a virgin, stop reading this post immediately and add 'Black Belt Jones' to your Netflix, your Amazon cart, your Torrent tracker, or whatever other futuristic mumbo jumbo you crazy kids are using to gather data these days.

In the annals of Black Kung Fu Cinema, 'Jones' has no peers.

One of my favorite all-time characters lives in this film, making it extra special.

Please enjoy a fine sampling of Pinky's gift for impeccable dialogue delivery right here.

As if that isn't enough to carry a film, 'Black Belt' also boasts one of the all-time great film soundtracks.

Detroit native Dennis Coffey comes correct on this jewel, concocting an undeniable and indelible funk groove.

You may recognize Mr. Coffey as the creator and Force behind one of freshest and most heavily sampled funk gems of the 70's, 1971's Classic 'Scorpio'.

Listening to this fine Detroit funk makes my Soul happy.

For some strange reason, this fantastic album was never officially released.

Thankfully, the good people of Weintraub-Heller Productions took matters into their own hands, pressing and releasing this dynamite slab of cinematic audio magic on vinyl in 2003, nearly 30 years post-film

FINALLY! WE CAN NOW PROPERLY ATTACK THE WACK!

This is a very special album!

Seriously, for nearly 20 years I have searched high and low for this rarest of special jewels.

Imagine my delight when I unexpectedly stumbled over this dusty diamond last week.

I debated whether or not I should post this, and after much Soul searching, I decided that I needed to share this treasure with the digital World.

To properly enjoy this tasty time capsule you will need to be familiar with the film and the Mind from which it emanated. Thanks to 'copy' and 'paste' I can sneakily recycle a previous post dedicated to this amazing film and the constantly awesome Rudy Ray Moore.

Obvious to all of those who ain't ignorant, the film I am speaking of is Rudy Ray Moore's magnum opus, and 1979's finest moment the almighty 'Disco Godfather'.

If you are unfamiliar with the powerful presence, delicious wardrobe, comedic stylings and uberFreshness of the unparalleled Rudy Ray Moore, you really need to fix this problem and delve into his amazing oeuvre.

Sweet Dolemite is one of the true Originators.

A King of Blaxploitation, blue comedy, and independent film making.

Rudy Ray is responsible for producing and starring in four of the finest and funniest most Blaxploitation epics ever burned into celluloid and unleashed upon modern Man.

Mr. Moore entered the game with a resounding and explosive bang in 1975 with the fantastic 'Dolemite'.

This would be the ideal place to begin your journey.

If you have never witnessed 'Dolemite', you are a sucka and you really need to check yourself immediately.

Rudy Ray Moore knew he had a good thing, and the very next year (1976), he followed up 'Dolemite', with it's unofficial sequel, 'The Human Tornado', a must-see slice of histrionics, sex, and slapstick.

Following this mind-shattering, brain-battering sequel, Ruby Ray Moore dipped his trim frame and sound mind into the metaphysical with 'Petey Wheatstraw' (The Devil's Son In-Law).

'Petey Wheatstraw' is an amazing work of art that truly needs to be seen to be believed. In fact, because I love you so much, I have posted the soundtrack and a few thoughts about Mr. Wheatstraw in the post directly below this one.

Enough cursory chatter and ramble, the reason you are reading this post and blessing me with your valuable time is because you want to 'Attack The Wack' and get your groove on with the 'Avenging Disco Godfather', Rudy Ray Moore's most dusted and mind-melting cinematic adventure, a truly amazing PCP-fueled epic that has yet to be equaled in the vast annals of Cinema.

'The Avenging Disco Godfather' is a rather amazing film.

The first time you watch this enigma, you will find yourself transfixed and mesmerized, unable to fully comprehend what you are witnessing.

There are a number of reasons for this which I will briefly discuss below...

1) The lighting.

The lighting in this film is completely inept and perplexing. It defies logic and previously accepted aesthetics. Surely it will blow your mind. The lighting for this film is other dimensional, imbuing the finished product with an angelic, psychedelic ambiance that synergistically combines with the Sound design and script to enter the viewer's psyche, irrevocably altering it, thus evolving the individual to a higher state of consciousness.

I truly believe that the entire lighting budget initially set aside for this MasterWerk was henceforth spent on PCP. This entire film appears to be lit with disco lights. There are some scenes in which the room is so dark, all you can see is teeth. Occasionally people wander towards the back of the frame and disappear. You really have to witness this trompe l'oeil and drink it in to fully appreciate the majesty.

Mere words cannot adequately convey this experience to the unilluminated.

2) The Doctor.

If your Doctor looks like this, you are in trouble. First off, he looks like a sneaky jazz musician or a Saturday afternoon dust dealer. The man is always wearing sunglasses regardless of his environment. It's OK though, because my man has a handle on the situation and seems to be something of a PCP expert.

A question may slip into your mind during scene in which Dr. Dust is in the nearly pitch black hospital room with Bucky. Why the hell does he have shades on?
There is no logical reason for a man (let alone a doctor) to wear sunglasses in such a dark and lightless room. And further more, what possible reason would there be for keeping a hospital room as black as midnight?

I think the main reason for this, is that the entire cast and crew filmed this entire movie while riding the 'Love Boat' ('angel dust' or PCP for you kiddies out there).

When one smokes phencyclidine, their pupils dilate. This causes objects and fields to appear much brighter than they actually are, hence the need for suspicious looking night shades.

3) The PCP Factory.

The PCP factory that is apparently supplying most of North America with 'the Juice' is merely a small room in an abandoned warehouse that contains no laboratory equipment. Perhaps the 'chemists' are also magicians who can fabricate complex chemical compounds without raw materials, Pyrex, scales, any semblance of a functioning laboratory.

Sweetmeat (the head PCP distributor) rolls into his 'factory' and demands that 1500 gallons of PCP be produced. Huh? A lab of this size would have trouble producing an ounce of PCP in an afternoon. 1500 gallons?

Preposterous!

Pushing things even further into the Twilight Zone, the lab workers were also instructed to dip 10,000 cigarettes in the PCP right there in the lab.

That equates to approximately 19 liquid ounces of PCP per cigarette!!! Wow! Now that is truly the 'stick with the kick'!

Scientific impossibilities aren't the only element (pun intended) of this film that make it a top-shelf Disco Daddy-O Winner.

Rudy Ray Moore, the Disco Godfather himself also happens to be incredibly gifted actor, chock full of charisma and exuberance.

The Human Tornado displays an uncanny knack for delivering inimitable facial expressions that perfectly compliment the sharp, snappy dialogue.

Moore's mastery of facial muscle manipulation synergistically combines with his keen sense of fashion to create a true screen icon.

Put your weight on it!!!

His gift for delivering dialogue, being a pimp, rocking superStar DJ skills, and blowing a bunch of nose candy off of a Saturday Night Fever Album cannot be topped.

In addition, his Kung-Fu stylings are not of this Earth. The man is very dangerous, as his skills are beyond analysis, and above reproach.

Punctuating this film at perfect, rhythmic intervals are incredible PCP freak-outs, expertly weaved into the tapestry of this fine film

These dusty trips are truly the work of a cinematic visionary, taking you deep inside the mind of an individual in the midst of a deranged PCP freak-out.

Only someone who has been to the brink of a dust-induced frenzy can truly appreciate the realism presented here by Rudy Ray Moore.

I view this aspect of the film as more of a documentary than anything else.

There is some very special cinematic magic taking place during these spellbinding scenes which cannot be quantified or analyzed using traditional means.

Everything about this film is wonderful, especially the ending.

I can't even begin to describe the amazing ending to this magical movie adventure. I don't think the proper words yet exist.

I love how The Disco Godfather is captured, bound, forced to wear a gas mask, and gassed with PCP.

Following this, he has an amazing sequence of visions involving PCP archetypes, crazy lights, smoke, and his mother.

Things then proceed to abruptly end. I think they must of run out of film...

I could go on and on. Bottom line is, you need to see this.

Put your Weight on it!!!

PETEY WHEATSTRAW THE DEVIL'S SON IN LAW

Petey Wheatstraw is one of my favorite of Rudy Ray Moore's cinematic masterpieces.

If you have yet to see this amazing film, do so immediately, it may very well blow your mind.

The man who brought us 'Dolemite' delivers the goods here in a true metaphysical blaxploitation Classic.

Good vs. Evil, Man's existential troubles regarding his Soul, Power, and re-incarnation are all explored with Moore's gentle touch.

In addition, Us lucky viewers get to watch a truck full of watermelons blow-up!

This is great family entertainment, and works as a fine appetizer for Rudy's PCP-fueled Disco Epic, 'The Disco Godfather', which will discussed at length in the very next post.

In the meanwhile, bare witness to the Master at work...

SCHOOLLY D IS THE KING

Highly underrated, very influential, and a true original, Jesse B. Weaver, Jr., known to the World as Schoolly D has been rockin' the M.I.C. correctly since 1984.

GODFATHER DON GEMS UNEARTHED

Today feels like Christmas.

To my delight I have just unearthed three previously unheard Godfather Don joints from New York's Golden Age.

Godfather Don is a unique and visionary talent, a mad genius who is criminally underknown.

My first exposure to Don was via his exemplary production on Ultramagnetic's underrated classic 'The Four Horsemen'.

Don's atmospheric, psychedelic boom bap was the perfect backdrop for Kool Keith and Ced Gee to drop their unique and dexterous brand of lyrical science over.

There are two things that set Godfather apart from most of his contemporaries.

First and foremost, Don uses a unique sound pallet. He cribs sounds from a far more diverse array of sources than your average producer. His beats have a very unique, dark, psychedelic, and jazzy undercurrent.

These beatscapes provides the perfect canvas for the Godfather to unleash his lyrically mastery. The man has a truly sick flow, he could destroy 95% of today's MC upon the mic.

Don can go off on the mic, with a delicious blend of word play, ill poetics, and dusty imagery that few can touch.

If for some reason you have slept on the great Godfather (many of you have), don't sleep any longer.

First up is Godfather Don's 2009(!) EP, 'The Ill Funk Freaker'. This gem consists of 8 previously unreleased future classics (recorded from 93-95) from deep within the Godfather's archives. Why these ridiculously dope tracks were never released is anyone's guess.

Upon hearing these rock solid Hip Hop meditations 15 years after they were recorded makes one wonder two things.

One: What else is Godfather Don sitting on?

Two: What the hell happened to Hip Hop?

Anyways, this is one incredibly rare slice of vinyl goodness, limited to just over 100 copies, and courtesy of 'One Leg Up Records', this joint currently fetches over $240 on discogs.com, so grab it now before it disappears like a good sack of angel dust.

GODFATHER DON - THE ILL FUNK FREAKER (2009)

01 Frontin' Ass Ducks
02 8 Million Stories
03 Ain't None Left
04 Ill Funk Freaker
05 Shoot The Two
06 Yeah
07 Where'z The Skillz?
08 Slaves (Straight Jacket Mix)

On deck is 'Demented Thoughts' which consists of 6 previously unreleased Cenobites track from 93-96.

You know the deal, Godfather Don, Kool Keith, and Bobbito with a guest appearance by Cage.

Totally dusted, totally awesome and limited to a mere 200 copies, you need this!

CENOBITES - DEMENTED THOUGHTS (2008)

01 Hawaii
02 MC's Out To Murder The World
03 Don, Don, Don
04 That's How I'm Goin' Out
05 Hot Crib Promo
06 Slaves (Original Mix)


Finally, we have Godfather Don's 'Billy Bathgate' 12". This tasty platter comes compliments of the fine folks at Diggers With Gratitude and contains 3 previously unreleased Don tracks from way back (1990).

This dopeness was pressed in a limited run of 300 and currently goes for around $110.

Enjoy!

HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT

In the future, when Anthropologists examine the ancient past, they will most certainly be perplexed and amazed by the fascinating style and antics of many 20th century subcultures.

Certainly one of the most entertaining and awesome of these groups is the 80's Metalhead. Known for it's brilliant fashion sense, lust for beer, and kicking ass, this species is predisposed to the mullet, drinking, and heavy fucking metal.

They can often be found at local malls, parent's basements, the van down by the river, and parking lots.

In order to procure authentic observations, it's important to observe exotic cultures in their natural habitat.

Where better to examine the 1980's Metalhead than in a parking lot before a Judas Priest concert?

Fortunately for future generations, John Heyn and Jeff Krulik descended upon the Capitol Centre's parking lot in Landover, Maryland on May 31, 1986 with a video camera and blessings from the Metal Gods.

The result? Heavy Metal Parking Lot!

Kruilk and Heyn managed to capture some the best-ever footage of Metalheads being Metalheads in their natural environment.

This is a truly incredible, National Geographic-worthy document that belongs in the Smithsonian.

There's not too much I can say about this, the footage speaks for itself.

For the sake of future Anthropologists, obnoxious hipsters, and groovy people everywhere, I have uploaded this amazing document in it's entirety.

Please enjoy and remember that repeat viewings will provide optimal enlightenment.

God speed.

ORIGINAL HOME INVASION

Say what you want about Ice-T, but in my opinion the man is fly.

Anyone who survived his time in the U.S. military, the federal prison system, the Pimp Game, Hollywood, the publishing industry, television, and the dog-eat-dog recording industry is pretty awesome in my book.

How many people do you know can hold a straight face whilst filming a scene with Warwick Davis (the leprechaun) and smoking a joint.



Some people seem to be under the impression that the Iceman isn't a true Hip Hopper. That my friends, is a ridiculous notion. This brother was down with the Zulu Nation way back in the day. In addition, Ice is one of the Godfathers of Gangster Rap.

The Iceman is not a one-trick pony, Mr. Morrow also fronted a competent hard rock/ heavy metal band named 'Body Count'- most notoriously known for it's feel good anthem, 'Cop Killer'.

Ice's best full length is undoubtedly 1991's 'O.G.- Original Gangster'.

'Original Gangster' is a straight up classic, and one fantastic slab of way-back. Don't let your preconceptions get the best of you. Do not hesitate, grab this bitch right now!

If you have never given Ice T a proper listen for whatever reason, now is your chance to atone for past folly and educate yourself.

23 The Tower (3:58)
24 Ya Shoulda Killed Me Last Year (1:41)


Also, for my mainframe Eric, is 1994's 'Home Invasion'. Listening to this album today, 15 years after it's birth is quite a revelation.

Bear witness to Ice-T kickin' '99 problems and a bitch ain't one' over a decade before Jay Z reapproiated it for his last good track. Peep the awesomeness of 'G Style' and try to not to get pumped up.

There are lots of goodies on 'Home Invasion' (check out the fly autobiography on 'That's How I'm Livin'), and while not a classic like 'O.G.', it still bumps hard and smokes 95% of today's current offerings.

Also included for your listening pleasure is 'The Last Temptation of Ice' which contains some sweet remixes of 'Home Invasion' tracks along with 'Richochet'.

Enjoy!

MATHS AND ENGLISH AND SHOWTIME

I find it pretty perplexing that somebody with skills as wicked as Dizzee Rascal is so underknown and unrecognized.

Not only does Dylan have an absolutely killer flow, he also comes with grimy bangers and dusty ill beats (self-produced) that work equally well at home, on the headphones, and in the club.

Perhaps it's the fact that he's from across the pond, but for whatever reason, Dizzee has never really caught on here in the States.

Why is everyone sleeping on Grime?

I don't really understand this.

For those that don't know, Grime is basically Hip Hop with sicker beats (8-bit sounds, ridiculous bass, and a more electronic feel)- think of a 'drum and bass' or 'jump-up jungle' sound palette.

Grime is really nothing more than a label devised by silly Music writers that have a need to categorize everything that is remotely original.

Below you will find his two most recent albums (if you look elsewhere on this fine blog, you will also find his stunning debut album 'Boy In Da Corner').

If you wanna rock your next house party or club gig, drop 'Pussyole' or 'Sirens' from 'Maths and English' and crank it.

Lots of killer material on these two albums to rock your World with.

If you are down with Hip Hop and/or electronic music and for some reason you have been asleep, definitely check Dizzee out.

Enjoy!
