</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>KINGSTON, JAMAICA</b> – Rising Hip Hop artiste, <b>Five Steez</b>, and New York City radio icon, <b>DJ Ready Cee</b>, have released the highly anticipated ‘<b><i>Momentum: Volume Two</i></b>’ mixtape for free download and streaming at <b><a href="http://www.djreadycee.com/" target="_blank">http://www.djreadycee.com</a></b> & iTunes.

<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">‘<b><i>Volume One</i></b>’ in the three-part series, released December 2010, clocked tens of thousands of downloads within months of its release.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">“<i>I took it back to the ‘golden era’ with the choice of instrumentals on the last one and now </i><i>we’ve moved up in time. It’s the same concept but the energy is crazier plus there are new flows </i><i>and new styles. I had to top the first one with this. That’s the whole idea of building </i><i>momentum</i>,” says the young Kingston-based rapper.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Despite widespread local and international awareness of an emerging Hip Hop scene in the land of Reggae, <b>Five Steez</b> has captured the attention of numerous tastemakers in Hip Hop including the legendary <b>DJ Ready Cee</b>.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">“<i>I’m telling you, whoever felt Volume One is gonna love Volume Two. It’s exactly the same vibe </i><i>and sounds like a perfect continuation. I know it took a long while but I just had to wait for the </i><i>right time</i>,” says <b>DJ Ready Cee</b>.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Five Steez</b> is one of Jamaica’s leading Hip Hop artistes gaining recognition on and off the island.

</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><b>Sounds of Life</b> held a historic event for <b>Jamaican Hip Hop</b> on <b>Friday, May 20, 2011</b> on the lawns of <b>Emancipation Park</b>. Scores of rappers and producers convened for the <b>Sound Culture University</b> with a curious audience filled with fans, DJ's, academics, journalists and skeptics alike. The discussion revealed to everyone that local Hip Hop is in its early stages and is still defining itself. The vision is for it to bring Hip Hop full circle and rekindle the global genre and culture with its Jamaican roots and its essence - as stated by one local rapper, "<i>to speak truth to power</i>". Many issues and challenges within Hip Hop were discussed, particularly in a local context. For the first, many 'outsiders' to the movement could get a better understanding of not only the genre in general but more specifically its local manifestation.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">This was the first event of its kind for local Hip Hop. It was said by one rapper that the community has never had such a forum to discuss its music. The audience heard much about the experiences and perspectives of local Hip Hop artistes. It is of importance to note that <b>Dr. Sonjah Stanley Niah</b> said that the various Hip Hop practitioners seated before her will be right in touch with what the new musical genre to evolve out of Jamaica will be. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Many people stuck around for more discussion after the event, especially rappers who have begun to plot more cooperation in building the local Hip Hop scene and propelling the music both locally and internationally. The energy was great for all Hip Hoppers. And <b>Sounds of Life</b> must be thanked. This was a great opportunity and will be the catalyst for much more in the future. <b>A thorough summary of the discussion is forthcoming and will be posted right here on this blog.</b></div>Hip Hop Rootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08231839924056107147noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575837747140460438.post-36304175500232902972011-03-22T08:31:00.000-07:002011-03-23T07:50:18.299-07:00DJ MadLogic x Five Steez - Yard Rebel (Mixtape)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidMy5T5XYl6thu6kdGs8jQSD8F-qI7vHLXgmj-Qw8UbH4Vqi82vVrwIYwf4YI4b9J2qg8LkgjtoDUIVx76NWu15c4Hzcmf7a52dmfRCLlmNb9t4KwSxnm5Mvp9D69Ywub-KYcoCoYNA3HD/s1600/Yard+Rebel+%2528Cover%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidMy5T5XYl6thu6kdGs8jQSD8F-qI7vHLXgmj-Qw8UbH4Vqi82vVrwIYwf4YI4b9J2qg8LkgjtoDUIVx76NWu15c4Hzcmf7a52dmfRCLlmNb9t4KwSxnm5Mvp9D69Ywub-KYcoCoYNA3HD/s400/Yard+Rebel+%2528Cover%2529.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><embed allowscriptaccess="always" allowscripting="on" height="221" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" quality="high" src="http://www.datpiff.com/embed/mixtape/m0a3790b/" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="507" wmode="transparent"></embed></div><div align="center"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.datpiff.com/Five-Steez-Yard-Rebel-mixtape.210674.html" target="_blank">Download Mixtape from Datpiff</a></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.sendspace.com/file/aau48b" target="_blank">Download Mixtape from Sendspace</a></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center" style="text-align: justify;"><b>DJ MadLogic</b> presents the up and coming Jamaican emcee, <b>Five Steez</b> on the <b>Yard Rebel </b>Mixtape featuring 16 tracks ranging from early songs as far back as 4 years ago to new freestyles and music from his debut album in the works, ‘<b><i>War for Peace</i></b>’.

</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>KINGSTON, JAMAICA</b> – In 1967, Jamaican-born DJ Kool Herc took the local sound system culture to the Bronx, New York and subsequently, Hip Hop was born. Four decades later, the genre has come full circle as <b>Five Steez</b>, one of Jamaica’s Hip Hop MCs, has collaborated with <b>DJ Ready Cee</b>, a New York underground Hip Hop radio icon from the Bronx, and released a mixtape online entitled ‘<b>Momentum: Volume One</b>’. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The mixtape, which is the first release in a three-part series, features 19 tracks, spanning a total of 46 minutes, in which Five Steez spits his lyrics over well-known ‘old school’ instrumentals as DJ Ready Cee mixes, scratches and cuts. The free mixtape is available for stream and download at <b>www.djreadycee.com</b> and <b>www.facebook.com/fivesteez</b> . </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">“It’s been a while since I’ve heard a real mixtape with actual mixing, plus scratching, and I wanted to bring that back,” says Five Steez. “It’s become rare even within modern Hip Hop but this is what the mixtape is really about.” </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">DJ Ready Cee, known for <b>The Underground Lockdown</b> and <b>The Ready Cee Show</b> on New York City’s <b>WHUT 91.9FM</b> during the late 1990s and early 2000s, says, “I first heard the homie Five Steez when he sent me a track that I played on my online show. I was blown away and so were my co-hosts and listeners because it was so dope. And this kid is coming straight out of Kingston, Jamaica, so that was special.” </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Five Steez says, “Ready Cee is a legend so it’s definitely an honour to get this type of support from him, particularly with the mixtape. I hope that this will highlight turntablism locally and also build my fanbase, especially abroad where the real market for Hip Hop exists.” </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Five Steez is one of the most recognized artistes within Kingston’s growing Hip Hop movement and is best known for his appearance in the music video, ‘<i>Get Down</i>’, and recent performances at <b>Manifesto|Jamaica</b> events, <b>ART’ical Exposure</b> and <b>ART’ical Empowerment Live</b>. He can be found at <b>www.twitter.com/fivesteez</b> (<b>@FiveSteez</b>) and <b>www.facebook.com/fivesteez</b> .</div>Hip Hop Rootshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08231839924056107147noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575837747140460438.post-36972409594645211522011-01-28T14:43:00.000-08:002011-01-28T14:43:53.500-08:00Kabaka Pyramid - Lethal Darts Ft.
