Riddim & Roti - Roland's (2900 Eglinton Ave.E)












Goddamn. I just ate this massive roti for lunch and am worried I may be found in a food coma at my desk in an hour or so. Needless to say Roland's satisfies.For $7.85 I ordered the Chicken & Shrimp roti from this legendary Scarborough Caribbean joint. Weighing in at what I'm guessing is about 2 pounds, the superbly spiced roti is quite possibly one of the best I've ever encountered (and i've encountered a few in my time). Served in a fresh Dahlphuri and filled with the perfect amount of potato, shrimp and chicken this traditional West Indian delight did not disappoint. Throw a little of Roland's scotch bonnet hot sauce and you'll be feeling the island breeze (or maybe sweats) in no time.

4 1/2 Brrrraaapps! out of 5

I've been rockin this Mavado track pretty heavy lately, and it still gives me the chills every time.

Murs 4 President

As much as we can't get enough of songs about poppin' bottles, guns and big booty bitches, the folks at Throwed sometimes dig something a little lighter. That's why we had to post up this hilarious clip for the new Murs album Murs 4 President. A trailer for a fake documentary about a fake hip hop presedential race.

And if you missed that free Murs & 9th Wonder album that came out a few months ago, go get that shit. It's free dummy!

Back By Blockular Demand

Boss Hogg Outlawz- Man I'm a G (320 kpbs)

Boss Hogg Outlawz- Give Me Some (256 kpbs)




Jeeezus, can we talk about this new Boss Hogg Outlawz album for a minute? So much good rap, so much good production; can't wait for the C-Ward and Kyleon full-lengths. Fuck it, we just need more from these guys. In the Beginning, Serve and Collect, and now this- we can't get enough. Check out "Man I'm a G-" it's like "Paper Planes" meets "Art of Storytellin' Pt.4" meets "Yoshi's Island." That Isley sample on "Give Me Some" is fucking massive, too. This is required listening.
