Be sure to cop that This Is The Life doc if you haven’t yet…

In this new monthly series LA beatsmith Omid will blessing us with selections from his own very deep collection of performances from the legendary Good Life Cafe open mic. Like the original GL sessions it will be a Thursday affair, so tune in next month.

Xololanxinxo, Jizzm, Awol One, Radioinactive & Circus – “Farmers Market Of The Beast”
@ The El Ray, Los Angeles (Live, 2002)

Nico posted this in the comments but it deserves its own post. From one of the greatest rap compilations of all time. I recently interviewed Radioinactive and was I very tempted to Chris Farley him on some “remember the time you rapped like a goat? That was awesome!”

Blowed day spillover. Deal with it.
