Big K.R.I.T. - Moon and Stars f/ Devin The Dude
Mississippi's finest brings an old school Outkast/Pimp C southern vibe. This came out last May and it's still in the rotation in my car.

About this Episode
Q-Tip is coming with a new album a week from now called The Renaissance. The former A Tribe Called Quest only has one official released solo album but has quite a resume to back him up. I've heard a few songs off the Renaissance already. Looks like this could be one of my favorites of '08 (though Fun DMC is still the undisputed #1).
Recent Episodes from Feel Good Music
Stalley - Milq n' Honey
Stalley is an up-and-coming artist from Massillon, Ohio. Massillon is a rust belt town in northeast ohio best known for its power house football team and the subsequent documentary made about them called "Go Tigers."
Stalley came out with an excellent mixtape called "Lincoln Way Nights (Intelligent Trunk Music)" earlier this year. Check it out.
Wiz Khalifa - The Race
I'm back to the podcast. I've got 2 years of music that's been waiting to get posted, so I'll try to put out a couple songs a day. We'll see how long that lasts.
Wiz Khalifa has grown on me. As a Cleveland guy, I'm not the biggest fan of Black and Yellow, but for some who pretty much only raps about weed Wiz is pretty good. His Kush & OJ mixtape is one of the quality rap mixtapes of the past couple years. Here's a single off his debut album "Rolling Papers."
U-N-I - Land Of The Kings
I love these guys' energy. They produce quality music just about every time they come out with a new song or a new mixtape. Can't wait for a studio album from these dudes from Inglewood.
De La Soul - Good Morning f/ Raheem DeVaughn
Off of De La and Nike's collaborative effort, "Are You In?" this song is supposed to help you runners out there to get up and get running. I'll keep that in mind when I try to get out there in the next couple of days.
Dam-Funk - Burn Rubber
This Stones Throw member put together a mix of a Baron Zen song which I've been listening to ever since I got back for the summer. Definitely check this one out
Tanya Morgan - She's Gone (Without You)
The men from Brooklynati give their rendition of "I Used To Love H.E.R." part II with Phonte singing the tracks. This ain't a girl song.
Slightly Stoopid - I Would Do It For You
Mos Def - Love
Love this hook:
I start to think, and then I sink
into the paper, like I was ink
when I'm writin I'm trapped in between the lines
I escape...when I finsh the rhyme
Crown City Rockers - Fate
The Crown City Rockers incorporate a strong jazz influence in their music. The blend of this soothing music and MC Raashan Ahmad's unique rapping style make for an easy, laid back sound. I strongly recommend their 2nd LP "Earthtones" (2004).
