The Notorious B.I.G.
Se va a estrenar el 16 de Enero una película sobre la vida de Biggie, un resumen de su vida, nació en Brooklyn ,de joven ya consumía crack y traficaba con drogas en Bedford-Stuyvesant. Tras dejar su vida de criminal, decidió hacerse rapero. Lanzó el aclamado Ready To Die en 1994 y se convirtió en la figura central del Rap De La Costa Este que tanto rivalizaba con la Costa Oeste, liderada en este caso por Tupac Shakur. The Notorious B.I.G. se convirtio en una leyenda del hip hop en 1997, cuando fue asesinado. Os dejo la banda sonora de la película.

Una canción
If I'm caught at a dance party
Without my dancin' shoes
And everybody dances on my bare feet
Shame on me
If I'm mindin' my business
Just doin the right thing
And you try to front me off in the street
Shame on you
If a family's waiting for that
Special blessing to come their way
But they ain't tryin' to get on
Their knees and pray
Shame on them
And if we live in a time where
every nation's fightin' 'round the world
Yet we can't all agree that peace is the way
Shame on us
Shame on me,
Shame on you,
Shame on them,
Shame on us
(repeat)
So what the fuss
If I gotta get up early in the morning
For a job interview
And I forget to set the stupid alarm
Shame on me
If my children are playin' outside
Like little children do
And you come 'round there
Trying to bring them some harm
Shame on you
Should I be drivin' thru a klantown
Find a restaurant to get me some food
And someone says "hey boy, we don't serve your kind"
Shame on them
And if we live in a democracy
And you don't use your power to vote
Knowin' some would like to turn back the hands of time
Shame on us
Shame on me,
Shame on you,
Shame on them,
Shame on us
(repeat)
So what the fuss
If I'm hooked on a habit
Knowin damn well it could cost me my life
Yet I keep doin what I should do without
Shame on me
If you're locked in a marriage
And your other half just gives you abuse
Yet you've convinced yourself that there's no way out
Shame on you
If we're jammin' the music
And somebody's got the audacity
To say that they can jam it better than us
Shame on them
And should there be just a handful that believe
That we are totally free
And there's no need to fight for equality
Shame on us
Shame on me,
Shame on you,
Shame on them,
Shame on us
(repeat)

The Monarch Of Neo-Soul
Os voy a colgar un Mixtape de uno de los grandes genios del Neo-Soul, como es D'Angelo, aparecio en 1995 con un album debut titulado Brown sugar, con el que se consagro como uno de los grandes vocalistas del Neo-Soul, cargado con buenas canciones cuya producción corren a cargo del propio artista y de Ali Shaheed Muhammad, junto con una colaboración de Saadiq, hacen unos de los discos clásicos del Neo-Soul. Tras esto, cinco años después publica Voodoo donde nos demuestra que el exito del anterior disco no era cuestión de suerte sino de talento, pero todo en la vida no es un camino de rosa, teniendo un futuro prometedor, éste se trunco con problemas con la justicia a causa de las drogas y demás problemas personales. Pero surgen esperanzas, debio a que hemos tenido noticias de que esta trabajando en su nuevo disco de estudio que saldrá a mediados o ultimos del año, esperamos ansiosos tu regreso. Os cuelgo un nuevo recopilatorio para disminuir la espera.
