DJ Muggs and Planet Asia - Pain Language (2008)

This hip hop album is a little hard to get into at first but once you become familiar with the sound it should click. The production is very low key but vintage DJ Muggs and Planet Asia is as excellent as ever on the mic. Definitely some gritty boom bap type shit.

Zatoichi OST (2003)

PLEASE NOTE: THE ARTIST NAME FOR THIS IS GOING TO BE SOUNDTRACK. I TRIED CHANGING IT BUT WHEN I PLAYED THE ALBUM IT AUTO CHANGED RIGHT BACK TO SOUNDTRACK.

Arranged, composed and produced by Keiichi Suzuki this OST is incredible. The movie itself is an excellent take on the blind swordsman Zatoichi. If you watch the movie then you will have a greater appreciation for the soundtrack but the OST easily stands alone.


1. A road to a post-town
2. Firewood-chopping and a farmer who wants to be a samurai
3. Ginzo's first command
4. The Naruto-ya rice merchant massacre
5. The gambling house massacre
6. The wasteland massacre and the reminiscence of Gei
7. A house on fire and massacres all over
8. Constructors
9. O-Kagura (for the film Zatoichi)
10. Zatoichi showdown
11. Festivo (for the film Zatoichi)
12. A road to a post-town - alternate mix

This is a RnB album from the infamous label we cannot name. Personally this is one of my favorite albums from 2010 and is something I listened to about 3 or 4 times in a row everyday for about a month. Long run-on sentences aside, this rip I uploaded is all out of order but tagged properly otherwise. Enjoy.

Rocks Thrown

The title is a play on words for the dastardly label this album comes from (albeit a corny one). I happen to like their label very much but they just aren't very nice to bloggers. So every time I post one of their albums it will be titled this and I will try to post pictures of people getting hit by rocks. Enjoy!

Da Pharaoh

I noticed this album was taken down from a lot of blogs I searched through. If you follow hip hop then you know who this 2007 album is from, if not its in the name of the zip file. Enjoy this excellent piece of storytelling and display of natural emceeing.
