Riddim and Roti: Blue Water



Blue Water Curry and Roti
1646 Victoria Park Ave
416-755-9649

Roti sampled: Chicken 4.5/5, Goat 4.5/5.
Price: 6.50 and 6.95, respectively.

This is a gem of a spot, which few people know about. Don't let the sketchy island vibe deter you; this place really knows their shit. Both rotis were packed to the gills with meat, potato, crushed chick peas, and a great deal of spice. You can get cheap beers here, too. Half-marks deducted because we've seen larger rotis at the same price point. Filling, none-the-less.

As the weekend approaches and the Throwed team is once again only half-employed (guess which half), we thought we'd drop two real heaters from one of our favourites, Aidonia, to get your (our) drinking faces on. Both high enough bitrates to play out in de dance, too.

Aidonia- Flyin' Dagger (160 kbps)
Aidonia- Guns Inna Funds (185 kbps)

Kanye West - Love Lockdown












Here it is, the much talked about new jam from Kanye West. As soon as word dropped about this track, I knew he'd be singing with an autotune on his voice (and I hear the whole album will be that way). Not a horrible song, but also not the quality that we've come to expect from Kanye. Who knows, this track could be a total grower, but at this point I just don't know.

Cam'ron - Bottom Of The Pussy Hole












Don't get mad at us. That's the name of the song...And it's pretty damn good. I love songs with emotional sweet crooning and really dirty lyrics i.e "I Hit the Bottom Of The Pussy Ya'll". Crime Pays should be solid.

New (MF) Doom album in a month!












There's been a ton of chatter happening on the web today concerning the announcement that there will be a new Doom (apparently he's dropped the MF, does that mean no more mask?). According to a Lex/Fontanna sales sheet that leaked, the album will be released on October 21st and features production by J Dilla and Dangermouse along with guest appearances by Raekwon and Ghostface (remember when they were supposed to make an album together?). Some great news for fans of this once highly prolific MC. Lets just hope this shit is real!

...and now some songs to remind you just how good Doom is:

Willy Northpole - Body Marked Up

Ths song is fairly old (at least in hop-hop years...or i suppose months), but i've been playing it on repeat today for some reason. Who knew they had gangstas in Phoenix?


Bonus:

Welcome To Arizona

Put you in a condo all the way up in Taronto...

Please let the T-Wayne album be real. This song is amazing.
