J Dilla x Stussy Documentary (Part 1) + Common’s Thoughts on J Dilla

Posted in Media, Video with tags , , , on Monday, February 15, 2010 by Tim Althaus

You will probably see me posting a lot of stuff about J Dilla in the next couple of weeks; I feel way behind the curve considering his birthday was on the 7th. Stussy has released a limited edition shirt in memory of Jay Dee, and they have also put together a three part documentary. This is the first part, and you will see many of the people that were privileged to know Dilla throughout his life. This documentary looks like it’s going to be an awesome testament to Dilla’s legacy, and you all should definitely check it out.

Underneath is a video of Common talking with HardKnock.tv about Jay Dee.

Album Update: Freeway & Jake One, The Stimulus Package

Posted in Album Update, Audio, Media, News, Video with tags , , , , , on Monday, February 15, 2010 by Tim Althaus

Alright, so here’s the deal. If you haven’t heard about the new Freeway & Jake One album yet, you shouldn’t be listening to Hip-Hop. The Stimulus Package drops tomorrow, and I can assure you that this album is going to be nuts. I will be going to the local record store to purchase my copy right away tomorrow afternoon; you all should be doing the same. After hearing Freeway & Jake One’s chemistry on White Van Music, it only made sense for these two to collaborate on an entire project. I’ve got a whole onslaught of stuff for you guys to check out. First will be the video that showcases the spectacular packaging that Rhymesayers Entertainment is known for.  Secondly, I have three tracks off of the album for your listening pleasure, and lastly you can jump over to Amazon and listen to snippets of the entire album.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Freeway & Jake One, “Know What I Mean”

Freeway & Jake One, “She Makes Me Feel Alright”

They Should Call Me Ludacris…

Posted in News with tags on Monday, February 15, 2010 by Tim Althaus

Because I’m back for the first time bitches! That’s right, I’m back at Mind Inversion again. I’ve done some serious thinking about this the last two weeks, and I think I’m ready to ease back into things again. It’s unfortunate that Culture Bully was put on hiatus, but I honestly can’t go without writing about Hip-Hop, so I’m back. My posting probably won’t be as copious and fruitful as it used to be, but I can assure you that I will post everything that I think is quintessential in the world of Hip-Hop. Give me a day or two to get used to this again, and it’ll be just like I never left.

Thank You everyone,

Tim “Alteez” Althaus
