Produced by Alchemist

i actually dig this track but can’t make it through the video

If I played you the joints RZA gave me, you would see why he’s not on the album, he didn’t give me that Cuban Linx shit, he gave me that Ghost Dog shit (via)

LOL. Follow the Alchemist’s beard here.

Digable Planets and Ghostface for cheap might be worth sitting through a beat competition. Although I get the feeling there won’t be full sets.

Ghostface, The Alchemist, & Digable Planets will all be in the house for the Red Bull Big Tune Finals at The Highline Ballroom on Wed. Dec 3rd. Get your RSVP on right now and reserve your ticket. Here’s the deal your $7 donation will go to the Impact Repertory Theatre. Simple!

If I was Alchemist’s manager, I’d push him to consider taking up writing seriously. I guess The Whooliganz was after Dope Poet Society? Link

First of all, off top you can see the MC Serch resemblance. Yo I even think we got the 3rd Bass fanclub adress off their album once and sent a pic of Jubin, in hopes that they’d recognize and maybe use him in a video as a young Serch. That was his nickname. Serch.


He was of Persian descent. This was around the time when rocking X hats and African medallions was in, and it really wasn’t that fresh to be a white rapper.

I remember he had some rhyme where he proclaimed, “im Asiatic, from Iran”.


We were all fuckups for the most part. 6th grade, just starting to smoke weed, doing grafitti,bad grades, just being idiots.

But not Jubin.

He was like the smartest kid in the whole school. And when we decided to do the group thing, to most of us it was just another fun thing to do, just clowning, trying to get girls attention. We’d probably get bored eventually and move on to something else like kids always do.

But Jub took it serious.

Ill never forget we all slept over at Jub’s crib one night, and I remember seeing this chart on his wall, like a calender that was written in his father’s handwritting.

It was like an ultimadum!

It had one date marked on the calendar that said on it something like ” if you don’t complete this music project by this day, you must move on”

I couldn’t even comprehend it. Dude we were in 6th grade. He was the man.

When i think back, the way Jubin was, and the way his parents were on top of him about relentlessly achieving whatever his goals were, it stuck with me. Cause that’s how I am now with myself.

Needless to say, The Dope Poet Society had a short run, and over the years Jub went his own way, as we got older and kept fucking up more, I guess he and his parents realized we we’re not the right group of kids for him. I still see my brother, Kai and Ecto to this day, but I haven’t seen or heard from Jubin in at least 20 years.

Alchemist Writes About His Trip Upstate To Visit Prodigy In Prison

Alchemist takes you through his recent trip to Marcy, NY to visit Prodigy in prison. His writing is succint and descriptive. Good shit. He also drops How The Thugs Play, an unreleased track that hardcore fans are probably already familiar with. Link (via Nah Right)

Of course Pee has been reading and writing. Not just writing rhymes either. Books, movies, etc. His health is good, and as you can see in the flick, the god had gained some pounds.

I let him know that his internet presence is still heavy thru the blogs and hnic2.com. …….

Oh yea, for those that were confused or in thug dreamland, no there is no computer room in prison, and no, you cannot go online in jail.

He did let me know that he does read all the mail that comes to him from fans, and every so often he writes back. So if you got love for Pee write him.

As far as him coming home, it’s looking like Pee will do just another year. Its hard to believe, but he’s already been in for six months. He probably wouldn’t say the same, but it seems like it’s moving fast.

I gave him some time with the wifey and ate some Doritos off to the side for a while, just bugging on the whole predicament of the human cage that they got my friend and many other peoples friends in. Shit is wack. But I must say, its not affecting him. Pee is pushing thru his bid like a G.

We stayed until they kicked us out, around 3 pm. I asked him where he was at in the writing of his autobiography, he said he was almost done. The last thing i told him when i left was, “don’t finish it, save some room for when u come home! The story ain’t over!”

Here’s a little unreleased old Alc/Prodigy treat. Its only right. FREE P
