July BWLP good lookin'...like...











talkin' isht about our favorites...
Too much good stuff to kick off the Summer issue.
BWLP mixed music music magazine is on volume 2, issue 1.
we're blessin' the session with a musical focus on hip hop out of Canada, raaaht' now.
Underground is supa' dupa' in what too many hoolas (sleepers) consider the least likely of planetary areas holding down some outstanding hip hop. And, we're not necessarily talking new jacks, but they got some of those too.


Obit-wise we had to come true on the coverage of the recent passing of the first Asian member of the Black Panther Party, Richard Masato Aoki. Like Defremery park ain't right down the street, West Oakland, yo.

And Bea Arthur, known as 'Maude' first appearing on All In The Family, is about as hip hop as you can get- oh yeah, she and George Jefferson BOTH got borne on AITF, therefore the background images and audio for some serious 70s' going' ons. If it wasn't nothin but growin up. Lady-girl had soul. She we got Bea here too. Like, we all in the same gang.

So here are a few images of some of what's coming down the pike.
Doin' it all.

You ain't seen nor heard nothing, yet. This summer is going o the ff.
