Thomas was born and raised in the 7th Ward of New Orleans. Influenced by his father DJ Sabu, Thomas became a DJ for New Orleans hip hop crew New York Incorporated in 1984 at age 15.[1] In the late 1980s, he began a partnership with New Orleans rapper MC Gregory D. They released their first album together Throwdown in 1987, with Mannie Fresh producing and MC Gregory D rapping. They would release two more records together in the late 1980s and early 1990s. After their last album together, in 1993, Thomas met Bryan "Baby" Williams, who gave him an opportunity to become the in-house producer of his record label Cash Money Records. With Williams' help, Thomas made chart-topping albums for the Hot Boys, which was composed of Lil Wayne, B.G., Juvenile, and Turk, producing all of the group's albums. He also produced all tracks on the members' solo works as well.[2]

"As I started making the album, I realized it wasn't about the geographical locations. It was much more of an internal thing," Harry explained. "When I took that title, put it to the songs we were making, it felt like it took on this whole new meaning. It was about, 'OK, imagine, it's a day in my house. What do I go through? A day in my mind? What do I go through?'"

JAY-Z: Well, I had - I grew up in Marcy Projects in Brooklyn, and my mom and pop had an extensive record collection. So Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder and all those sounds and souls of Motown, etc., etc., filled the house. So I was very familiar with the song when Kanye brought me the sample. It was just such an interesting and fresh take on it that I, you know, immediately was drawn to it.

Their distinctive voices and skills on the mic, as well as NY-centric storytelling drive the album, and the chemistry is undeniable. The production is tight, but this is also where the supergroup shifts away from musically, perhaps what the title of the project is alluding to. Erick Arc Elliott, Power Pleasant, Sam Wish, and Tyler Dopps lay down slick, bouncy instrumentals as opposed to boom bap, and it's refreshing and fun to hear the group expand its sound. Check out "Distance," "Left Hand," "Snow In The Stadium," "Far Away," and "Coast/Clear."

Duke Ellington discovered and recorded pianist-composer Dollar Brand aka Abdullah Ibrahim in 1963 playing in a more or less conventional jazz manner, but it took a long time for the South African township music he evolved in the 1970s to be accepted outside of Africa. This album was one of the very first to be made in America and its impact was immense, its melodicism, warmth and simplicity brought something new and refreshing to the often overheated, testosterone-filled gladiatorial pit of small group improvising to established harmonic patterns. As Jelly Roll Morton had shown 50 years earlier, sometimes the best comes from a truly group effort. (KS)

Outside of the established shops, the flea and antiques markets will also be of interest. The most regular of which is Els Encants, a modern covered structure that houses all sorts of informal stalls with a fresh selection of house clearances several times a week. Its unmistakable silhouette stands alongside the post-industrial Glories neighbourhood, and opens Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. The most dedicated diggers are there from 8am, when the hard bargaining goes down straight after the auction of plots.

Danny Howells: Razor beats on this Chicago house bomb from Maurice Joshua. My early exposure to this was via an acid megamix album, on Street Sounds I think. Has that dated stab sound which you heard everywhere which kind of puts a date stamp on it, but I still enjoy it.


Kanye West's Auto-Tune-heavy, emotionally naked fourth album came after a brutal year during which his mother died and his engagement broke up, but the album's cavernous sound and exposed-soul lyrics confused even those who had been aware of West's recent trials. Its core aesthetic was like nothing in hip-hop: freshly butchered feelings enumerated in detail, but masked by digital processing; beds of spare synths used to balance a mix of singing and rapping. However, over time it served as a new template for up-and-comers in hip-hop and R&B. Drake cited West as his budding sound's "most influential person" when he was hustling mixtapes, while artists like Future further tweaked the idea of using Auto-Tune as a way to convey emotions that evoke too much feeling when spoken of explicitly.

A report in The New Yorker from June 24th, 1967, quotes a disc jockey named Joe O'Brien who quotes his son, then a freshman at Yale, saying that the day Sgt. Pepper's came out, the entire Yale (and Harvard) student body bought copies. "This album is not a teenage album," he added. "This album is a cantata." Sgt. Pepper's wasn't the first album to blend rock music with high art, but it was probably the first time that musicians of the Beatles' stature and popularity (if there even were musicians of their stature and popularity before them) decided to turn their back so completely on what had made them famous. Put positively, it was the first time the Beatles were free of the responsibility of being the Beatles. The irony is that no other album cemented them so firmly in the public's mind. e24fc04721
