Great live albums...1

"Let's burn the White House, but let's build a Green House.."  - Wavy Gravy

Okay I am going to make this quick and simple. These people made great music. And all these people made great live albums that shoud be heard should be heard and supported. Enjoy.




















A must hear is Ray Charles joining Aretha on stage for Spirit in the Dark. But basically she crushed the stage in a front of  a mostly hippie/rock oriented audience with a combo of originals and covers proving at the time she was at the top of her game and worthy of the title Queen of Soul.

Earth,Wind, and Fire were studio masters when the released this astounding live set. Every song grooves so powerful you wonder if they were having fun or had something to prove...not even Parleiment mad a live album like this.

who's handing out dummy smacks? Kice...of course!!!

I am gonna keep this very simple. Kice ...of course is serious on the mic!!! Hailing from New Jersey the first solo artist signed to Mr. Len's (of Company Flow) Smacks label dropped two insane albums of hip hop. If you have the Murs 3:16 movie Walk Like A Man and its soundtrack then you have heard his song "Miracles". Kice...of course dropped My Experience in 2005 and blew me away with his flow, rhymes, and beat selection. Not a moment of my time was wasted on this album with standout tracks like "My Style" (my personal favorite!!!), Cruise, and opener "From The Inside" Kice...of course can't loose!!! This is a total classic!!! Listen and learn.

Also I decided to let y'all sukafaces hear the second album from Kice...of course the 2008 release Passion of Kice. Still bringing the grown ass man's hip hop on this one Kice...of course proved that My Experience wasn't a fluke in any way, shape, or form. Standouts on this album for me were "Legend", "Music Is My High", and "neM (Men Backwards)" but every cut is worth its weight in gold. So next time you see a flyer with this brother on the bill go see him. If you see a single or hear about a new release I’d advise you to go and get it with the quickness cause these days dudes like Kice...of course are coming and going due to the lack of interest in an artist who can say words like integrity and mean it!!! If you like dudes like Rasco or Krondon then your gonna become a huge fan of Kice...of course. Enjoy!!!
