Gotta give credit where it's due:
The original artist (http://www.myspace.com/knotarapper)
One of my best friends is actually music partners with D'Mite. If you're into the DC hip hop scene, his name is Mello-D (he always lays down tracks with him).
I especially dig the message behind this song... it really hits home re: how bad a lot of radio hip hop is nowadays.
Mello-D as in the beatjunkie?

Nope (although DJ Melo-D is tight)...

If you like Atmosphere, check out Slug's project with Murs... they're called Felt and they've got two really good albums: "A Tribute to Christina Ricci" and "A Tribute to Lisa Bonet"

RobH, I'm always interested in new music, so I thought you might be too ... check out these guys, if you haven't already:
Binary Star
Melodramatic
J-Live
J-Rawls
Eyedea and Abilities (philosophical lyrics, incredible scratching)
Infectious Organisms (jazzy, instrumental hip-hop ... think The Roots)
The Last Emperor (try to d/l online...probably won't find a CD)
Richy Pitch (and pretty much anyone on the 7Heads label)

most definitly will... I actually saw Eyedea and Abilities on tour with Atmosphere and Aesop rock.
They all did there sets and then came back out and battled for probably a good 20 min. Eyedea tore all of them up.
