TWO NEW ROOTS SONGS
"Long Time Coming" feat. Peedi Peedi -- Black Thought's first verse is crazy. And I love when the strings come in at the end.
"Don't Feel Right" feat. Maimona Yousef -- Their first single. More of a typical Roots sound, but still tight as hell.
Game Theory coming August 29th.

"SIT TIGHT AND LISTEN KEENLY WHILE I PLAY FOR YOU ANOTHER BRAND-NEW MUSICAL BISCUIT . . . " The title of this blog comes, as many of you probably know, from a beloved line spoken by a DJ at a dance (Prince Buster) in the 1973 film The Harder They Come starring Jimmy Cliff. It is not an exaggeration to say that -- along with the Wailers' Island debut Catch a Fire -- this classic movie and soundtrack introduced reggae to the world. (RIP Desmond Dekker, whose "Shanty Town" is just one of the excellent tracks on this essential compilation.) But despite the origin of the title Musical Biscuits, this is not a site just about reggae. You can be certain there will also be lots of hip-hop, soul, funk, and rock biscuit banter. If names like Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Lee "Scratch" Perry, DJ Premier, and Cee-Lo Green mean anything to you, we're in business . . .
