kinda standup. kinda live beatmaking exhibition. kinda poetry review. kinda all-the-way-live come March 2014. and this is kind of a preview. stay tuned. i know it's been waaaaaaay tooooo long since a post, offerings, takes and whatnot. however. it's time to represent for all my folks could know the art of BRINGIN' IT is alive and well. setting course to bring all the elements of hip hop together, event by event: graf, truntablism, hip hop dance, double dutch jumprope arts and rhyme stylists.

Rock with Rockwell.

Rockwell hosts this month's Shogun Audio podcast. what's remarkable about it is how you will hear, without a doubt, the influence of how Bay Area underground rap, slash, bass culture has influenced things world-wide. from drum and bass throughout the many styles of ,what we at BWLP refer to as, beat culture. if you like beats, bass, edits and beautifully crafted audio experiences that drip of get-cho-asson-the-floor-ness....you better have a listen.

Cold Burn.

strangely familiar in different times. finally arriving after not so little drama in 2012, we bring to you a set of music that we like in exactly the way we like to hear it. enjoy, as we go out this year with something spectacular, if only in it's honesty of freshness. each artist does their damn thing. we live in a world of repeatedly alarming incident, yet the beauty of nature and it's capacity to remain our environment holds us in it's own stillness of motion. we at BWLP believe that music contains that very essence of sustenance when isht truly goes down. the Incendiary Diaries edition does it like we do. play it and keep on keeping on with flavor and mad skills. 2013 WILL see a return of fresh and smart editorials over remixed extensions. this new era needs all the conscientiousness it can get. but here, allow us to present to you: Mr. Dibiase, Flying Lotus, Joey Badass, Dailon, Busta & Birdman, Alix Perez, Suzi Analogue & Swarvy, Nefarious!, Dusky, Submotion Orchestra, Mayhem x Antiserum, Fel Sweetenberg, Angelo Moore and Fish, Malvina Reynolds, First Aid, JayLotus, Proflogik, and of course...BWLP.
