SOME STUFFS: BURNTmd’s “The Green Invasion” finally sees the light

Posted on by


Since January, I’ve been giving you small slices as hints of what was to come on BURNTmd’s album, The Green Invasion. Six months later, that album is now a reality. If you head to a store or an online merchant that stocks quality hip-hop, you’ll see the cover above. If you download the mixtape version, you’ll see the cover below.

The mixtape has 27 tracks, while the retail/stock version has 25, and there are a few differences between the two. If you love your albums in a mixtape fashion, head to the DatPiff.com link below and DL it for free. Want to hear things as a properly formatted album? Opt for the retail version, which you may purchase below via Amazon.

REVIEW: Oh No’s “Ohnomite”

Posted on by

Photobucket For some people, when they listen to the tracks on the 21-track album Ohnomite (Five Day Weekend/Brick), they might want to call it this type of hip-hop or that type of hip-hop, balancing on the thin line between opinions of the greatest and the elitist. I’ll tell you what I think: this is hip-hop. Period.

Being “of the hip-hop spirit” runs in the family, and when you hear this, you’ll understand. Ohnomite may be celebrated for a few things: the amount of different MC’s and producer collaborators that help out Oh No on this, although the one thing that is constant is his own production, for he is in control of this entire album. His rhymes go anywhere and everywhere, crazy and abstract when it can be but distinct and direct when it matters, everything carefully written/choreographed like a surprise football play.

Musically, this shows the strength, power, and influence of underground hip-hop, which for me has always been major and at times better than what is pushed as mainstream music, thus the spirit Oh No has. This is why Frank Nitt (of Frank-N-Dank), MF DOOM, Phife, The Alchemist, Chino XL, Med ,Guilty Simpson, Sticky Fingaz, Phil The Agony, Rapper Big Pooh, and Erick Sermon among others are all on here: there’s a vibe here that is unspoken but is heard in each of these tracks: go for what you know, go for broke, and don’t give a fuck.

Being the younger brother of Madlib, being spontaneous and making music that sounds like a trippy collage of anything and everything (i.e. random scatterbrain funkiness) seems to be part of the family DNA. Yet you enter Ohnomite not to follow a distinct storyline or concept, but being confident in the mission about to take place and putting face in Oh No, knowing that you will be in one piece at its conclusion. Once again, this is not a specific type or style of hip-hop. For me, this is hip-hop. You’re welcome.

FREE MP3 DOWNLOAD: BURNTmd featuring Phil The Agony & DJ Grazzhoppa’s “GTDMIB: PhilMadBurnt Anthem”

BURNTmd will be releasing a new mixtape called The Green Invasion, the cover of which you see above, and this song comes with gifts, given to people as gifts.

“GTDMIB: PhilMadBurnt Anthem” is from a track that was not used from the incredible In Search Of Stoney Jackson album made by Strong Arm Steady and Madlib. In other words, it’s an unused Madlib gem that gets a renewal, but this is not the only thing that’ll made Madlib fans crazy. This BURNTmd mix tape is said to feature yet another unreleased morsel, this one blessed with help from Snoop Dogg. Nuts.

For this track, BURNTmd mutuates (?!?) with Phil The Agony and DJ Grazzhoppa for a damn good song that sparks 2012 properly, with hopes of so much more from everyone involved.

If the download expires, you may also download it from Mediafire. BTW, this is a legitimate download courtesy of Diamond Media 360 Network.
