Video: FAM B.I - To da white meat

This is one of the greatest examples of dirty south goon rap I've seen since Lil Jon and 8 Ball & MJG dropped a song of the same title on 2005's legendary 'Crunk Juice' album. So grimy that you'd never hear it on radio because the whole track would be censored to the point where you'd practically be listening to the instrumental.

Interview: Cyrus Malachi

Cyrus Malachi burst onto the UK hip hop scene with his crew Triple Darkness in 2008 on their debut album 'Anathema', an L.P which has become known as a UK classic. He recently released his new album 'Ancient future' via No Cure records. The twenty track LP features US acts like Ruste Juxx, Bronze Nazareth and UK artists Melanin 9, Kyza, Iron Braydz and more. Toby Kay chatted to Cyrus exclusively for Blatantly Blunt...

BlatantlyBlunt: Firstly, your name, Cyrus Malachi, how did you choose that?

Cyrus Malachi: Simple, Cyrus is Persian meaning ''of the sun'' and Malachi in ancient Syriac comes from Malak which means messenger so Messenger of the Sun.

BB: Wu Tang affiliate Darkim be Allah and Duck Down Records artist Ruste Juxx appear on the album. How do you go about getting these Stateside artists on board?
CM: I had already worked with Ruste twice, the second time was when i featured on his album ''Adamantine'' and Darkim be Allah was through Endemic....

BB: Despite the American features, you also have the UK features, is there anyone that you wanted to get on there, but for whatever reasons couldn’t?
CM: Not really, I am happy with the UK line-up on there. Kyza is a UK legend and a crew member (in Orphans of Cush), and Cipher Jewelz is also a UK legend who I have always wanted to work with. So that was a blessing and Iron Braydz, like myself, is an up and coming artist with a lot of passion and heat who also has a buzz....

BB: How long did 'Ancient Future' actually take to complete?
CM: It probably took about eight months to actually record, but I worked on it throughout 2010.



BB: What is it you want your listeners to perceive of Cyrus Malachi when listening to the album?
CM: There’s nothing I particularly want them to perceive about me. More the message I bring in my bars and for the music to powerfully affect them when they listen. If they perceive anything about myself I hope its that I am a torch carrier of 'real hip-hop' and a true lyricist who loves the art form through and through. Also I hope they see that people who grow up in the ghetto are capable of intelligent thought and sociological reflection....

BB: You are working with independent label No Cure Records. If a major did come knocking, what would you have to say to them?
CM: I would have to consider it as I have children and need all the money I can get from my craft, but I would definitely have to look into what they were offering and the amount of control I would have. The obvious advantages that come with being signed to a major label would greatly help the furthering of my career and my status within the game...

BB: 'Animal Circus' is a great concept song. What is your outlook on rap music that’s popular today though?
CM: My outlook is simple – it’s a shit, garbage, pre-packaged, dumbed down, diluted version of the music I love called Hip Hop. I can’t get with it man. I mean each to his own but in my opinion commercial mainstream ''Hip Hop'' is the worst it’s ever been, and continually helps to perpetuate the stereotypes of my people which is nothing more than exploitation on a grand scale.

BB: Any last words that you’d like to add?
Thanks for taking the time to interview me, keep real Hip Hop alive... peace.

Video: Logan Sama After Hours ft Revolver, Warlock & Wariko May 30th

Ever since Logan Sama's monday night grime show on Kiss got down to one hour, the extended MC sessions were sorely missed, which has resulted in his 'after hours' sets.

All these MCs are on Z Dot - A New Light is out now from here.

Review: Streamago - broadcast your gig!

Imagine you are at the studio or having a freestyle session with your boys, and want to broadcast what you are doing, right then and there! You don’t really want to record the video, upload it to your computer, find time to edit it, log on to YouTube and wait for it to upload to your channel then spread the link around!

There is another option, as long as you have a decent internet connection and webcam you can log on to Tiscali's new service   Streamago and broadcast your gig, studio session or even the club or venue you’re in and show off what’s going on in your part of town! Get your fan base (and haters) commenting and providing feedback on your freestyle session. 

On top of that you don’t need to download any program to your computer. You can also be streaming the live event you’re broadcasting on your Facebook wall (forget watching tv!) so you’re more likely to get people involved that don’t want to leave their favourite social network! Check Streamago's Facebook page here.

You can also add Streamago as an app on your iPhone, which is currently the only application that allows you to send in true real time! However, if you want to allow your fan base that weren’t online at the time to see that crazy mix you dropped at the rave at 4 AM, record your broadcast and save it to your account (each user can use a disk space of 10GB!). Once it’s uploaded, share the link on twitter and Facebook or embed it on to your blog, and hopefully get other people to do the same!  Try it out and drop us a comment on here to let us now what you thought of it...
