In Your Face
This shits probably done to death but I felt like posting something a little different to the usual focusing on some of my favourite production in the coming weeks, sharing track's that distinctively stand out from the way the instrument/s have been utilised regardless of the MC. Could be a loop, one shot, live, synthetic or sampled.
You mightn't be a 2pac fan but when you hear California Love you cant front on Dre's production doing up a little eq tweak and lacing that Joe Cocker piano...That's the kinda business were fucking with.
To get shit started I thought I'd share (in no particular order) with my fellow rundown weblors, ten tracks with standout bass lines that punch you straight in the bread basket.
Single Minded Pros feat. Pacewon - You know its like that.
Produced by Dj Rude (Earatik Statik and Single Minded Pros)
Not much in the way of a production credits from this DJ/Producer but what more do you need than the bellowing finger picked bass, tight kit and Brick City's Pacewon (The Outsidaz) finishing it off?
You'll find this track on Tony Touch - The Last Of The Pro Ricans, CD or from the original Single minded Pros - Session 2, 12"
Black Moon - How Man MC's
Produced by the Da BeatMinerz (Evil Dee & Mr. Walt)
Taken from the 92 classic, Enta Da Stage. This album is gully as fuck. The production from the minerz is incredible! The whole LP has that filthy low end sample based organic sound which came to be that 90's Hip-Hop sound we love. This one being my personal standout with that nice pop bass jacked from the track Hydra performed by Grover Washington Jr (posted below).
M.O.P. - Cold As Ice
Produced by Fizzy Womack
This track speaks for itself. Mo-pees on some cold ass thug shit. It could have fallen under a piano keys category but Fizzy's chops and compression pushed on the bass sampled from you guessed it... Cold as Ice by Foreigner make this shit certified body music. You'll find this track on Mash Outs Warriorz album.
Big Punisher feat. Fat Joe - Twinz (Deep Cover 98)
Originally produced by Dr. Dre
A quality track of Pun's Capital Punishment. I'm favorable to this one a little more than the OG joint Deep Cover 187 by Dre and Snoop. Not sure where this bass is from. It's nothing that technical, just a simple yet effective loop. Its the little two bar intro that always sticks out in my mind and works its magic when the uptempo drum break and little one shots kick in making room for dumb out back 2 back straight spittin.
"Yeah!! and you don't stop!!!"
Alchemist feat. Prodigy and Nas -Tic Toc
Produced by The Alchemist
Bang two bars of this Side Effect original on 45 and mix it with some of that ALC sound you get a certified banger. 80's Soul/Funk with a new lease on life.
Both Capital P and Nas bring their A game to this one on some good vs bad rotten apple story telling biz.
This track features on Alchemist's 1st official release 1st Infantry
Cage - Radiohead.
Produced by Necro.
Mr. Palko was always a little left of field, this was when he was on the good side of the end zone and not teasing his hear, singing about feelings with pseudo-emo weathermen..Anyways, its not about the rapper its about the bass on the beat. Necro's a beast on the boards. No one can argue he's fallen off either..Peep Gihad off OB4CL2..Shit is fire!!
Here's a down tempo beat with the simple progressive blues riff from the band Ten Years After thickened up with some organ and crunchy synth, works sick under cage's dipped out word play. Still love this track regardless of the above. Not sure what its from maybe an early EC/Fondle Em 12"?
Ghostface Killah - Daytona 500
Produced by The Rza
Almost forgot about this little gemstone. Ya'll know Bob James right??A damn fine track here produced by RZA. He's taking this break and giving what could be a guitar a good low boost to make sound more like a bass. Fuck it, shit sounds like a bass to me. Taken from the 96 Classic Ironman.
"The Mac 10 flex, wipe cats like Windex!"
Dr. Dre. - Aint Nuthin But a G Thang
Produced by Dr. Dre.
I could have done 10 tracks on Dre alone but I've settled for one I hold closely from The Chronic. Many a drunken nights in the past and to the day involve a sang of the G thang, sometimes I even alternate from Dre then passing the mic back to my delf so I can bust like a bubble. Chea!
The break a straight jack of Leon Haywood. The bass walk is some straight up G Funk. Need I say more?
Mobb Deep - Quiet Storm.
Produced by Havoc
One of my all time favourite Mobb Joints right here. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the bass sample is from from White Lines just slowed down and beefed up? This track features on Murda Muzik
"I put my Lifetime in between the papers lines"
OC -Times Up
Produced by Buckwild
Buckwild straight jacking and loopin it out. Hypnotic bass over a nice open kit with OC flexin some incredible lyricism. This got a bit more play in when it was featured on the 8 mile soundtrack. Nice dirty 90's shit.
I've missed so many tracks with stand out bass that I'm going to have to do a part 2. stay tuned!

CNN's The War Report 2
If the sequel to Capone-n-Noreaga's classic debut maintains this quality throughout i'll be very happy.
Anyway here's the first single featuring Imam T.H.U.G. and Mussaliny "Thug Planet".
How about an Imam T.H.U.G. solo. I'm feeling this dude.....

Joell and Preem- Project Boy.
Joell is definately one of my favourite picks out of the current crop NY underground artists ( you know saigon, term, papoose, trife and so on). So this collab with preem off his forthcoming album Free Agent is definately welcome.
And here's a little background on the making of the track from both joell and preemo.

Freddie Foxxx Is That Dude!
Check this out. Panchi of the NYG'z talking about Bumpy Knucks' pugilistic abilities. The event was Statik Selektah's album release at SOB's in NY.
Now that you've seen that, check out the dude just prior to getting busted up by Bump. Freestyling (terribly) anti NY sentiment and bearing some make-shift screwdriver shanks all while invading some young lady's personal space.
.
I'll finish this post with Freddie doin' what he do best, bodying industry dick riders....

GURU AWAKENS FROM COMA AND RELEASES STATEMENT
Former Gang Starr rapperGuru, who suffered a heart attack this past weekend, has released a statement regarding the condition of his health. The 43-year-old Boston-born rapper slipped into a coma, but was successfully operated on Tuesday, March 2. In his statement, which was only a couple of sentences, Guru confirmed that he is making a recovery, and that his sole representative will continue to be his producer/partner Solar, rather than his legendary Gang Starr partner,DJ Premier. "I am doing fine and I am recovering! I'm weak though," Guru said. "Solar is the only person who has the accurate info on my situation. Any info from anybody else is false! I appreciate your well wishes and all the love!" Solar echoed Guru's sentiments, saying "Guru is resting and doing well after his surgery. The doctors say that he will fully recover from his illness. We thank everyone who send prayers our way and we appreciate the outpouring of love from around the world!" While it seems a bit odd that Guru's first public statement about his health would include a disclaimer and reference to Solar as the sole source of information regarding his health, we're very glad to hear that he's conscious and that his surgery was successful.
G.U.R.U.
According to many different sources, Hip-Hop Wired has acquired information that rapper Guru has fallen into a coma after suffering cardiac arrest.
Details right now remain very slim, but sources have stated that the news was broken by Guru's sister.
Guru, who is a former member of the rap duo Gang Starr, is considered to be one of the pioneers of Hip-Hop/jazz crossovers. As more details are released, Hip-Hop Wired will continue to bring you all the information regarding the situation.
Our prayers go to Keith "Guru" Elam and his family.
*UPDATE* DJ Premier, the other half of Gang Starr called up Satelite XM radio station "Hip Hop Nation" and confirmed Guru's heart attack.
