Double shot from Willie Evans Jr’s “Black Mega: The Remixes”. This proves that Willie Evans Jr. has got beats as he re-interprets some favourites of the Mr. Lif and Akrobatik catalogue. Honestly during both the Victoria and Vancouver Mr. Lif shows, I was impressed by Willie Evans’ stage show, which involved playing his original beats, rapping, and incorporating and synching various video clips to his performance. Although, “Black Mega” focuses mostly on Willie’s stellar beat making ability. Big M did pick up another one of Willie’s CD so aspect to hear the name and music in the future on URP, but in the meantime check out his myspace.

Double shot from Jadakiss' 3rd solo album, “The Last Kiss” on Roc-A-Fella Records. Jada has one of the most distinctive voices in hip-hop and a flow that is know to hypnotize listeners. I think “The Last Kiss” was worth the multiple delays as I think this is Jadakiss’ best work to date. However, Jadakiss doesn’t do it by himself evoking friends such as fellow D-Block members Sheek Louch & Styles P, along with Nas, the Neptunes, Ghostface & Raekwon to name a few.

Double shot from the brand new Blame One album “Days Chasing Days” on Soul Spazm, I originally thought this was Blame One’s debut; however, looks like I have been sleeping since this is a follow up to his 2007 release “Priest, Thief & Wizards”. However, my ears have been woken now as “Days Chasing Days” is an ill release boosting the talent of producers and MCs such as Exile, Black Milk, Blu, Sean Price, Kan Kick just to name a few.

We started things off by featuring a sick album by The Grouch and Eligh “Say G&E! Vol. 4”, which isn’t even officially out until April 7. However, in honor of a couple big shows G&E have coming up including SXSW and annual “Paid Dues” hip-hop festival we thought we should give our listeners the exclusive sneak peak. This album reminds my of another album myself and O-Dog are still bumping, 88 Keys “Death Of Adam”, similarly this album has a mix of sounds and guests (Gift of Gab, Pigeon John, Blu, Mistah Fab, etc) that all work to form an enjoyable musical experience. Check the myspace for all the dates on the upcoming “Say G&E” tour.

Featured a couple tracks off the brand new Grandmaster Flash album “The Bridge: Concept of a culture”. This is Flash’s first studio album in 11yrs, I guess that is what happens when you have a demanding schedule of touring the World. This album definitely reflects his global travels as he exposes us to several international MCs. But in general even with other legend appearances by Q-Tip, KRS-ONE, Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Mr. Cheeks, Big Daddy Kane, Grandmaster CAZ this release is still more of a rental then a purchase.

Double shot from K'Naan's new album, “Troubador”. Fans of our show know that we have been anticipating and riding hard for “Troubador” for a minute now. I can honestly say after taking in this album beginning to end, I love the diversity of sound and flavour that K’Naan and guest such as Chubb Rock, Mos Def, Damian Marley, Kirk Hammett bring. Go cop the album and support some genuine hip-hop!

Double shot from the Zion I crew’s 5th album “The Takeover”. This talented MC/producer duo, Zumbi and AmpLive, has been coming with it for over a decade now, and this album continues in that tradition of quality forward thinking beats and rhymes. Although representing Oakland, Zion I decided to evoke the talent and sound of some other talented MCs on “The Takeover” such as Devin The Dude (Houston), Ty (UK), and Brother Ali (Minneapolis). Definitely check out “The Takeover” on Gold Dust Media and for more insight peep a couple shows back when we had Zumbi join us - http://urpradio.podOmatic.com/entry/eg/2009-01-14T15_37_25-08_00.

Double shot from an album, “The Spirit of Apollo”, crafted by two friends/talented DJs Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon. Three weeks ago, I had never heard of this project or these DJs, but I was blown away by the track “The Mayor” featuring Ghostface, Cool Kids & DJ AM on one track. Then when I heard “N.A.S.A. Music” where they thought you know what would be nice to put two original stylistic spitters, E40 and Method Man together, I knew that I had to cop this album. It is unfortunate that a lot of people will likely never hear about this ambitious project that has a wide gamut of superstar artists on it such as Kanye West, Chuck D, KRS-ONE, Tom Waits, Santogold, ODB, David Byrne (a O-Dog favourite), and many more. Consider yourselves lucky that the URP family has got your musical backs.

We kicked off an abbreviated edition of the Urban Renewal Project with a Double Shot from Ludacris’ new album, “Theater Of The Mind”. Overall we weren’t feeling the album that much but it’s got some serious high spots, such as the DJ Premier-produced “MVP”. He’s got mad guest spots on this one, including Chris Brown, T-Pain, Rick Ross, Nas, Jay-Z, The Game and Common. It’s not entirely our thang but we figured we’d give it a go off the strength of the few tracks we’ve been spinning lately.
