Movie of the Week..........


"The Spook Who Sat by the Door"
(1973)

After a few J's one night, me and my ace Nate Buttaz decide to go grab some movies and some vinyl. Quick trip to P-Town, and we landed in Broadway Music. Dude who owns the store is an OG, so he's got a gang of records and a gang of 70's blaxploitation. My kinda store. After a brief breeze through, I stumble on to this. The movie is based on a book by Sam Greenlee of the same title. It is about a black man who becomes the first token black enlisted in CIA. After mastering espionage tactics and CIA field training, he leaves the agency and goes back home to Chicago to train the inner city youth to be Freedom Fighters, using the same regiment that the CIA used to train him. If you know anything about 70's blaxploitation, then you know it is racially charged and brutally honest. That's what makes them so great. This one actually has good cinematography, effects, and acting. Check it out if you can find it. It might be easier to order online than trying to find it a store.

Suggested Reading..........


How to Hustle and Win
by
Supreme Understanding

I stumbled onto this book while in an African bookstore stocking up on ammo. In this midst of all the books, written by all these professors and scholars, this book stood out to me. I read the foreword (written by the REAL Freeway Ricky Ross) and went ahead and coughed up 25 beans. Read the first chapter and was blown away. Supreme Understanding is a very witty, well versed, knowledgable dude. And not just knowledge of self, but knowledge of the world. This book opened my eyes to many things (including some of my own shortcomings) and provided a way for me to argue certain points in such a way that even the dumbest of street dudes can understand. Check out the synopsis and some reviews at supremedesign.com. Cop this joint and support positivity. Or waste 20 slugs on some off-brand kush. Your choice...........

Curren$y - Hold On



Another dope track/video from Curren$y and the JETS...this one produced by Nesby Phips, featuring Young Roddy and Trademark. Im almost positive either Loot or Trot made a beat with the sample that was replayed on this joint. Let me check the archives. If I find the beat I'll post it up here.

Holiday Shopping.......


They are slowly but surely becoming my uniform of choice. Varsity Jackets, crazy T-shirt designs, ill hat collection, and that 95' vibe. Straight out of NYC, 10 Deep is a step ahead of the competition. Grab some  @ 10deep.com or hit up KarmaLoop.com. Shit is real out here homey............you should start dressing like it.
Enjoy.......

New Music!!!

Check out this new track, "Real Life Show", by Jern featuring Trot. Produced and Recorded by Trot at Persistance Pays Studios. Jern is making some noise in the Norfolk scene, backed by Rebel Muzik Media. I think this track is kinda setting the tone for the type of quality music you will be getting from AWNP in 2011. Look out for Jern's "Misunderstood" Mixtape coming in Feb. I will be all over that joint. Already 3 songs in.

Enjoy
