If you’ve been keeping up with them Crew54 boys (and shame on you if you haven’t), you know they dropped a new mixtape back in June of this year: The 54 Reality Show Tape.
I have been busy as a mug with my first semester of graduate school, so I haven’t been doing much of anything on the boards. But this week, I decided to dust off the keyboard and make it do what it do. So without further ado, here’s my remix of one of their tracks off the album, “So Beautiful.” Download, share, and let me know what you think via the comments.

From my man Haji Haj, mastermind and producer for the collective, Dumhi, comes a little mix of old and new tracks in anticipation of their upcoming EP’s. Featuring Dumhi rappers, Shameless Plug, FLUD, and Mash Comp, as well as other friends and collaborators, the 12-track blend is their usual eclectic mix of of underground bangers and simmering low-key funk. There are some pretty nice tracks on here, and at the low, low price of free, you can’t go wrong.
First of all, I apologize for the hiatus from the blog, but I’ve been busy finishing up my EP. This post isn’t exactly news, but I don’t know if I ever posted it on here, so I thought I’d remind you that our 2008 mixtape, Southern Soul is available for free download. Thanks for your patience. I promise I’ll have hot new music for you soon, and that I’ll be back on schedule with Chop Steak Music ASAP.
Apparently my including this track in yesterday’s Chop Steak Radio podcast generated some interest, so I thought I’d link it up:
Lil Keke | Grey Cassette f. Bun B & Lil’ Keke

Yes, I had to look that up. I was bored this weekend, so I took a little time out from working on tracks for my own album to remix a joint from last summer’s Milk & Donuts mixtape by Mike & Ike. Cuts courtesy of DJ Diamond Tip. Enjoy, and let me know what you think via the comments section. Any emcees or singers looking for production, have your people email my people.
