You Mad Cuz We Stylin On You?


Stones Throw Records recently dropped Stones Throw: Ten Years to celebrate a decade of quality music.

Brother Ali's album has been pushed back and is now set to drop April 10th. I recently got my hands on an advance copy so be on the lookout for our first Long Crisp White Album Review. El-P's I'll Sleep When Your Dead is set for March 20th and Jesus Price Superstar from the artist formerly known as Ruck should be landing January 30th. Everything I've heard off that has been tight and you should expect more of the same from "the brokest rapper alive."

Speaking of Sean P, he's reportedly working on a new album featuring Stones Throw's Guilty Simpson.

Not to be outdone, Q-Tip is set to drop two albums in '07

The Paid Dues Festival in San Bernadino, CA has confirmed some more acts, including Lif.

If you've been watching (ego trip's) White Rapper Show, LCWT's is clearly rooting for Bostonite Sullee. Anyway, here's an interview with the first rapper off the show, Dasit.

If you've been in a box and missed the incarceration of DJ Drama and the RIAA holy war against the mixtape, here's a nice summary courtesy of the New York Times.

A gay rapper calls out 50, among others.

Good to see Mos Def getting some props for his acting - he's been asked to be a juror at Sundance. After listening to True Magic, though, I have to wonder if he's ever gonna get back to rapping.

This one isn't hip-hop related, but you gotta love the balls on Hugo Chavez.

40 oz.

It might be hard to believe, but we here at Long Crisp White Tee's don't make our living off running the illest hip-hop show in Boston. We're working stiffs like the rest of y'all, and just like the rest of you people, the DDB is bored as fuck as work, and anxious to get at it now that it is almost Friday night. So sit back and relax, kill a little time with the video below, and get your mind ready to pop the top on that fresh bottle of your favorite malt liquor once 5pm rolls around.

Eminem and D12 - "40 oz."


R.I.P. Proof
Go Pats

As always, keep it locked every Tuesday, from 10pm - 12am and be on the lookout for our two-year anniversary coming up.

Apparently, Kanye's show with HBO will not be a reality show. 36 Mafia, on the other, will be starring in a reality show.

Stomp the Yard has been banned from a string of Illinois theaters. Apparently not fearful of being dubbed a racist, the owner explained, "I was fearful (Stomp the Yard) could become the occasion for more gang violence, because I felt certain it would draw that audience."

Reef the Lost Cauze's take on the death of hip-hop.

What up kids, its ya boy DDB and I'm proud to bring you my first contribution to the official Long Crisp White Tee's website. Much respect to Big Rils for getting the site up and running. The dude locked down the "Hardest Working DJ" award in 2006, and he is already putting in serious work for the repeat in '07. As always, check the site regularly for consistent updates from the DJs, including links to download our show, hip-hop current events and news, videos, and links to whatever we feel you need to see. If you're lucky you may even catch a good ol' Olde English-fueled rant from The DDB now and then. Crispy Whites brings you the best free hip-hop you can find on the radio every Tuesday, and now we're fixin' to bring you the illest site on the web.

For all you mixtape-heads out there, or anyone looking for good new hip-hop music, peep this site GetRightMusic.com. Get Right brings you all the ill new mixtapes and hot tracks to download for free. The crew of Crispy Whites are already big fans. Here are a couple Crispy choice selections from the site that have been getting serious burn in our crib and whips.

Mick Boogie presents: Nas & AZ - Executive Decision

Award winning DJ Mick Boogie brings you that Nas-AZ collabo you always wished they had made. Little Homey and AZ kill it with a couple of their classic duos, and Mick picks up the slack with remixes that pair the two emcees on the rest of the tracks.

Clinton Sparks & DJ Boogie Blind present: Pharoahe Monch - The Awakening

Crispy favorite Pharoahe Monch drops his new mixtape The Awakening as a pre-cursor to his upcoming album Desire. Clinton Sparks, recently voted "Best Club DJ" at the Mixtape Awards, mixes the beats behind Pharoahe's always sick lyrical flow.

Talib Kweli: Blacksmith - The Movement

Kweli is back with a mixtape featuring himself and artists off his new label, Blacksmith Records. DJ Eque mixes the beats as Kweli and his crew kill it again.
