I’m gonna start releasing some of the pieces online starting in January. The jacket from the AMA’s, the Warrior hood that I wore at the Dior show and this one here. I actually designed this one and the jacket from the AMA’s less than 3 weeks ago! I’m really happy with them!   Sidebar: The Louis Sneakers are coming out REEEEETARDED and the Yeezy’s drop in march.  Sorry for the wait.  I swear to you guys all I do is work on design when I get off stage.  I want to and will be the real thing.  I will not just be a “celebrity designer.” -Kanye West

 It seems these days artists are into giving away a mix tape or EP for free before their album comes out for promotion, and to make peace with consumers eager to bootleg. I think its a great idea, check out the latest free album courtesy the Zion I Crew hailing from LA, featuring Del, Rakka, Talib Kweli, and The Grouch. Don’t forget Zion I has a full length album coming out January 27th.

This past weekend I had the chance to sit down in Flushing Meadows Park in Queens with legendary producer and emcee, Large Professor.
Getting things started with his crew, Main Source — which featured Toronto DJs K-Cut and Sir Scratch, and also emcee Mikey D — the group dropped the classic album, “Breaking Atoms” in 1991. The album featured the funky and chart topping single “Looking at the front Door”, and other conscious tracks like “A Friendly game of Baseball”, “Just Hanging Out”, and “Watch Roger Do His Thing”.
From there Large P went on to be the man behind some classic rap albums and artist such as Common, Nas, Kool G Rap, and a Tribe Called Quest. Also keeping it local building hard hitting beats with fellow Queens emcees AZ, Cormega and Mobb Deep.
After dropping the single and video for ‘Ijuswannachill’ which was supposed to be on his first solo record The LP, that was never released but earned some serious buzz. LP went on to sign with Matador records to drop the full length album “1st class” in 2002.
So after world tours, nightly DJ gigs and the very popular instrumental albums Large Professor Beatz Vol 1 and 2, whats up with Large Professor?
