Opener...

Forgot to mention before that Mayer Hawthorne will be the opener for Ghostface Killah. Hawthorne's a pretty profound guy, he's a rapper/producer/ DJ/ and soul singer. He has two names he goes by the one Mayer Hawthorne is his soul music that he's been putting out, the second is Haircut who raps and DJs. He also does some stuff with the rap group Athletic Mic Leauge. He also just came out with a new album, A Strange Arrangement, which is real fresh and brings you back to Motown, Curtis Mayfield, Barry White, and Smokey Robinson. Do yourself a favor and check this guy out.

Enjoy,

Samson.

Get On It...

On the 13th I'm going to be seeing Ghostface Killah at the Rialto Theater in Tucson, AZ. I've liked Ghostface since his Wu- Tang days. Also he just came out with a new album, Ghostdini Wizard of Poetry. My hope is that he doesn't just focus on plugging his new album and performs some classics like Camay and Verbal Intercourse even though Nas and Raekwon won't be there.

I'm not the hugest fan of his new album but it's also not horrible, Most of the better tracks are featured on his last mixtape, Fish Scale Pt. 2 The Mixtape which had more of an original Ghostface feel and less of the mainstream sound of Ghostdini Wizard of Poetry. There were definitely a couple sick songs though.

Enjoy,

Samson.
