Okwerdz and Illmaculate
The Home Grown Tour featuring Okwerdz and Grayspace popped off last night in Oregon City, OR. It was a dope show with more than a few surprises. First and foremost was the unexpected appearance of battle rap super star Illmaculate. He jumped up on stage for a large part of Okwerdz set and did some dope freestyles over the live band performance of Greyspace. We’ll cover that more later but first, the second big surprise.
T-Webb and Winkz
T-Webb and Winkz are two young up and coming Hip-Hop/R&B artists straight outta Estacada, OR. T-Webb and Winkz had a dope performance and brought out a huge crowd. I would have liked to see more of their fans sticking around and filling up the dance floor, but it is what it is. Props to T-Webb and Winkz, look to see them smashing it on a lot more shows in the future.

Greyspace
What is better than a dope live band with an ill emcee and a phenomenal guitar player who happens to also be a doctor? Not a whole lot in this cruel world, but Greyspace has that and more. Their performance was awesome, switching up their style on more than a few tracks to accommodate every musical preference in the building. Their Myspace categorization of Hip-Hop/Funk/Indie is a good indicator of their style and sound. Mad props to Greyspace, they killed it last night.
Okwerdz and Illmaculate
Okwerdz opened up his set with a song featuring Greyspace and then did a couple tracks with DJ Cuttah as accompaniment. All of those early tracks were sick but couldn’t really compare to what came next. Unannounced to anyone, Illmaculate was set to perform with Okwerdz. So Ok called him up mid set and spit some verses with Ill. They got the Greyspace band behind them and busted some sick 4 bar freestyles. It was a stellar performance. Props to Okwerdz for coming out and killing it less than 24 hours after doing a show in Reno, Nevada. Good luck to the rest of the Home Grown Tour, keep it crackin’. Big ups to Portland rap battle legend Illmaculate for coming out and showing the real heads some love.

More Shout Outs
Props to ourselves for killing it. Dru, Flawless, Damian Grey and DJ Cuttah (Bad Habitat) rocked the show with one of the dopest performances of the night. Props to Sawb 1 for collaborating with us on the planning and coordinating of the event. Big ups to all the fans and real hip hop heads that came out to Oregon City on a Saturday Night.

Hip-Hop Snubbed at Grammys
Did Hip-Hop Get Snubbed At The Grammys?
People in the hip-hop nation are wondering if the Grammy Awards are snubbing hip-hop.
At Sunday night’s show, the only hip-hop award that was broadcast during the show was Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, which Jay-Z, Kanye West and Rihanna won. The only hip-hop act to perform was the finale of Lil Wayne, Drake and Eminem performing “Drop the World” and “Forever” — and even with that coveted spot, the performance was mired in controversy due to network’s overzealous muting of the song’s lyrics. There was no moment in the spotlight for Eminem’s two wins; no show-stopping performances like last year’s “Swagga Like Us” tag-team of Jay-Z, T.I., Lil Wayne and Kanye West with M.I.A., which killed it collectively and individually… Read More…

Blue Scholars
Blue Scholars on Piece Of Shep
In my constant quest for new hip hop music I’ve seen one name come across my screen several times: Blue Scholars. Even though I’ve seen them mentioned by various underground hip hop fanboys, I’ve never given them a shot. I don’t exactly know why. Perhaps they were even on my todo list, I’m not sure. One of the members even appeared on CunninLynguists’ latest album, Strange Journey Vol. 2. The past few days I’ve decided to give them a listen and I have to say, I love what I hear. If you are as unfamiliar with the group as I was, let me give you a brief introduction.
Blue Scholars have emerged out of the erupting Northwest hip-hop scene with soulful beats, poetic yet political rhymes and a reputation for dynamic live performances. With two full length albums and 3 EPs, the group has become one of …

Portland Hip Hop
The Portland hip hop scene has been underrated and unappreciated in the mainstream media. It is, however increasing in popularity among underground hip hop heads worldwide. Heavy hitters in the Portland hip hop scene include Illmaculate of Sandpeople and his many achievements in the battle rap game, Cool Nutz and his many successful albums, productions, promotions and radio programs, Sleep of Oldominion and The Chicharones. These artists and many more are making waves in the underground hip hop game and putting the Portland hip hop scene on the map.

Sandpeople: ILLMACULATE, ETHIC, ONLYONE, SIMPLE, DJ SPARK, SAPIENT, AL-ONE, GOLD, IAME. Check out Portland hip hop super group Sandpeople’s online store
Sleep of Oldominion and member of major underground hip hop group The Chicharones
Luck One: Ill emcee hailing from the Portland Hip Hop scene, Luck One has gained a big name for himself in a relatively short amount of time.
Diezel P: One of my personal favorite Portland rappers, Diezel P does a lot of charity shows, volunteer work for the community and parks and recreations service. Diezel P really gives back in a major way, this dude deserves a lot of respect as an emcee and as a man.
Rocket One: Portland hip hop veteran, Rocket One, is one of Portland’s Hip Hop kings. With many big shows under his belt, respected master of ceremonies, Rocket One deserves his stature as one of Portland hip hops main contributors.
