People have been asking me what the fuck the Wide Awake Club was after that Mz Bratt post, so here you go. Oh, and here’s a bit of the show that followed, Wacaday, as I get them confused in my mind sometimes.. Enjoy!

Man, the Wide Awake Club was influential! Popular culture looks just like Saturday morning TV in 91 these days. Big it up!

Brand new incredibleness from the perma-classy OFWGKTA collective, AKA Oddfuture. This whole joint was produced by Tyler The Creator, rightly described by Steady Bloggin as “The RZA of the clan”, with whom you can read a dope-ass interview over here. Turns out dude likes Neptunes, which explains why this feels like the more coked out moments of The Best Rap LP Of The Milleniums, AKA,  Nigga Please in places.

Welcome back Nas. Not that you left. People always act like Nas has been doing some wack shit when he drops an ill lil’ something like this. Distant Relatives only came out the other month!

Anyway. The Last Real Nigga Alive is one of my favourite Nas joints evah. Way back in 03 I recorded a version of it called The Last Real Wigga Alive. It was a story about some kid. When I started most of my raps were about other people. I’ve been 96% autobiographical since 04. It might be time to switch up again soon…

Props to RR.
