Hi! I'm Lee. Welcome to my blog. Here we talk music: news, reviews, interviews, tips, tutorials and more. I'm also working on the upcoming podcast Influenced as a guest, writer and researcher alongside music aficionado Mark Williams and friends. Watch this space! I have been a lover of music for as long as I can remember, an amateur lyricist for 25 years, a music writer for 15 years and a hobbyist musician and blogger for almost 10 years. My tastes range from jazz to house to hip hop and I love helping artists from all genres develop their sound. My music, videos, reviews and interviews have been featured in a variety of magazines and websites, including: B-Boy Tech Report Gimme That Beat Humanhuman Audio Skills Dream House Beats Where Did the Road Go Beat Tape Co-Op Push Power Promo Drum Magazine You can find my music on Bandcamp: Monkey Mind Sounds AKA LeeTNB And you can find me on Facebook: The New Beatmaker page Lee's personal page
The joint greatest hip hop duo of all time talk about how they got together, their funk, soul and hip hop influences - notably the influence that the late, great Heavy D had on the pair - and the creation of probably the greatest rap song ever.
This video gets extra props for including not only the dynamic duo, but also Eddie F, Dante Ross, Special Ed and Jarobi White and many more.

Aside: CL Smooth is arguably, along with AZ and, up until recently, Black Thought, the most underated MC of all time. Discuss.
Rest in peace to 'Trouble T-Roy' and Heavy D.
