Detroit has the best undergroud hip-hop on the planet. Proof [[RIP) from D12 had his own record label before he was killed. It was called Iron Fist Records and all his boys are doing big things in the Detroit scene right now. Detroit rap is where it is all at, but then again I am a Hip Hop Head!

I finally got to see Rattlesnake Shake at the Magic Bag Friday night. They are a Peter Green-Fleetwood Mac [['67-'69) era tribute band. It's basically the Muggs with guitarist-extraordinaire Brett Lucas added. I happened to see that edition of the Fleetwood Mac at the Grande in early '69 and it was one of the best shows I experienced. We're fortunate that we have these talented musicians who have a passion for the same music we loved. I'm grateful for their work in keeping it alive.

I recently bought HUSH's latest album, The Open Book. Listening to it I find myself wondering how the hell his poetic and powerful music gets overlooked.

Here is a doc vid i found on him with some history on the Detroit hip-hop scene: http://vimeo.com/8712349

NICE! Yeah, Hush really does have talent and I have his first two CDs. The first was Roses and Razorblades and the second was Bulletproof. Bulletproof was a sweet album featuring Eminem and other D12 artists. "Hush Is Coming" was the best song so youtube that one! Hush uses a rock and rap combo. Ahead of his time for sure.
