WTF: Music Stimulus Package
Everyone loves free music. Whether or not it helps or hurts an artist is an entirely different discussion entirely. But when the artist offers the music up for free, who can argue with that!? For This Week’s Thursday Freebie I’ve gone through our archives and have posted up many of the songs, albums & mixtapes that artists have posted up throughout 2009. Some links take you to file hosting sites, some can be downloaded straight from the link, since I didn’t originally post up the links I have no control over the delivery medium =P.
These were officially released for free by the artists themselves, so if you’re a fan BP & Odds, Decipher, Dumbfoundead, EyeAsage, Jimmy Boi, Johnnyphlo, J. Reyez, Kato, Lyrics Born, Magnetic North, Taiyo Na, Conchita Campos, Paul Dateh, Roscoe Umali, Sci, Shogunna, or Triangle Offense and missed any of these releases than by all means help yourself!
Note, some of these tracks can also be found on the a-Tunes Mix Vol: 1, which is not an official release.

WTF: Johnnyphlo – The Notebook
Another week, another WTF.
This time we’re brining you The Notebook, Johnnyphlo‘s debut mini album from earlier this year. Well actually Johnnyphlo himself has put it up for free download on his website so we really didn’t do anything haha. Previously you could only get the album by purchasing via pay pal or at one of his shows, so if you never got a chance to cop it, get it now!
You can always check out our review before you download but it’s definitely a recommended album.
Tracklisting and link after the jump.
Johnnyphlo releases pics & videos from Kollaboration Philly
Johnnyphlo has released some photos and video footage from his performance at Kollaboration Philly from a few weeks back. JP performed Keep Ya Head Up, and S.T.A.Y. pt II from his mini album, The Notebook. Looks like it was a great show! Too bad I couldn’t make it as Decipher, Lyricks, and Manifest were all there as well.
Check out youtube for a ton of other fan-cam videos from the event.
Critic’s Corner: Johnnyphlo – The Notebook
Johnnyphlo is someone who has come a long way in a very short amount of time. Just a couple years ago he was known more as someone who spent his time behind the scenes as a manager and engineer for many Asian-American artists. However now he has decided to step out on his own and show what he has to offer. With his official debut single “White Lie” released just about a month ago, JP has shown signs that he has the drive and talent to make some great music and caught a lot of people’s attention. So the question is how does his first mini-album release hold up to the hype?
Let’s find out after the break.
*Disclaimer: I know Johnnyphlo personally and am also on one of the tracks. Despite this I do what I can to stay objective and fair in my reviews. There aint no Benzino and The Source drama here.
