LP: Gnarlon Bando's Midnight Noir by Lee Bannon
Lee Bannon is a experimental hip-hop producer based out of northern California. Bannon has proved himself to be different from the rest producing for artist such as Talib Kweli, Wu-Tang's Inspectah Deck, and Zion I. Drifting into hip-hop’s hands around age 13.
Reportedly releasing one of the dopest instrumental projects last year, he is almost criminally slept on as a producer. Kicking-off this year he drops his latest and very dope LP, Gnarlon Bando's Midnight Noir. 11-track release off that experimental hip-hop sound he is well known for.

Video: Little Brother & You Already Knew (Live On Jimmy Fallon) by Black Star
Guess who stopped by NBC's Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night? Mos Def Yasiin Bey and Talib Kweli performing "Little Brother" as Black Star along with a little support from The Roots. "Fulfillment of a dream" is what Questlove tweeted right after performing the J-Dilla produced track.
Black Star also performed "You Already Knew" which is kinda new and is a cut off the duo's mixtape called Aretha, the Aretha Franklin tribute. Good things happening to the duo, 2012 looking up for classic hip-hop.
You Already New (Prod. Oh No) by Black Star
Black Star are definitely back to work and back in the business. Mos Def Yasiin Bey and Talib Kweli just dropped the Madlib production "Fix Up" yesterday via iTunes but it seems that it was not enough. So they released an additional that will be a part of their Black Star Aretha mixtape, a tribute to the great Aretha Franklin.
The cut is actually produced by Oh No, Talib Kweli's brother. Not of the usual energetic release coming from him though but really working-out and sounding good. Sultry Hip-Hop release perfect for a #BlackFriday night.
Fix Up (Prod. Madlib) by Black Star
Black Star officially premiered this new track, "Fix Up", over on The
Colbert Report, during a live performance. But now, they have officially
released the track, for purchase, on Black Friday. Now, having Mos Def Yasiin Bey and Talib Kweli back together is already amazing but then having Madlib on the beat is truly mind blowing. Check out the track and purchase it via iTunes today (via EARMILK).
Universal Magnetic & If You Can Huh by Mos Def
With Mos Def's new project, Black Star, with Talib Kweli and a soon to be scheduled come back, this appears to be the perfect time to drop some old tracks from the man to try in stir things up for him. I have two tracks from his 1997 EP, The Universal Magnetic via Rawkus Records. (via Bizzies)
