Something's Wrong

So, I connected with the homie MISHAP again with this feature on an album he's doing with a illy nice MC named LIGHT. Together they are DEAD CENTER outta Jerz..Also featured was NALM MYERZ. He goes in first, then LIGHT and STIDAK finishes. It was a pleasure to get down with them and their project should be dropping soon. SOMETHING'S WRONG - feat. NALM MYERZ, LIGHT, & COR STIDAK [prod. by MISHAP] by COR STIDAK

Go the other, other way.

 

Dropping October 15 will be the collab album. Basically a collection of blood-boilers that I did with some new friends from various zones. Featuring beats by Keor Meteor, Yahn Looke Picard, King Boom, Handbook, Beat Machine Aron, Pepil Pew, Arthritis, and Anomeric. Available at Bandcamp. Links to come. Peace!!

Resonance Vol. 1

A ridiculously cool new comp album from Collective Resonance with works from the likes of Prof. Logik, dranaL, LAKIM, Handbook, Phedee, Sunday Morning, Yahn Looke Picard, and of course ya boy Stidak, among others. 30+ minutes of raw, intelligent speaker smashers that are sure to delight enthusiasts of such things. I think Cor Stidak x Yahn Looke Picard collab track, "Master the Art" is number 11. But just press play and bang all these joints.

Breakfast of Champions

Science of the Sun - MISHAP (CD) release date: 9/2011 - sorry, we do not sell cd's or lp's any longer. Ugly Boy Music is very proud to present the album debut of super producer MISHAP. Hailing from New Jersey, Mishap turns in an album that feels like a classic in the making. Vanguardist production with a sense of history create an album full of wonderfully original modern hip hop and soul music. Tapped most notable for bumps on Adult Swim, Thomas Tsotas aka Mishap is also a radio veteran with his own "Peepshow" program running for 7 years on WPSC FM. album notes: Legendary MC Tame One of Artifacts fame is featured on the track "Fun 101". Brooklyn's best kept secret, singer Fiona Silver comes with a huge tune called "Come Clean". On "Mind Over Matter" one of NJ's most talented MC's Venomous is featured along with NY underground star L.I.F.E. Long. NY's Mace Callahan sings on "Fade" & "The Eaters". Out of Paterson, NJ, legendary rapper Light tells us about what he can "Understand". "Oyster & Stout" features OG Cor Stidak on the mic. Rasheed Chappell brings us "Fear of Flying" a tune that label boss Brian Echo Park says is "the cut!". Rasheed is rapidly rising to the top with his own LP reaching #4 on the east coast hip hop sales charts. Mighty duo Kram & Telep bless the track "Loud Mouthd". "The Science of the Sun" is an album that aspires to the timelessness of Talib Kweli's "The Beautiful Struggle" or even Jay Z's "Blueprint" LP, and is perfectly pitched for those who understand the value of connoiseurs' labels like Stones Throw or Okayplayer. With something for everyone, this is a collection of music that speaks for itself without the pomp and trumpeting of scenes and sub-genres that comes with so many releases now. To play it is to love it! by soulseduction Good luck and congrats to the homie Mishap and also Ugly Boy for seeing fit to include "Oyster & Stout" on this phenomenal project!! http://www.soulseduction.com/reviews/default.php?mediaid=2&hoox=1,2&ptitle=shop%20by%20cover&avail=5&digital=1

No Peace

A blurb about the song by Bobby and me on a friend's blog. Funny, might be hard to tell but the day we recorded this song Bobby had a nasty cold and it didn't help that at the time my lab was in a garage that could get to 60 degrees in the winter with a space heater or two. We banged it out though.

We are in the midst of doing an EP. It's as yet untitled but will include the 4 songs we've completed plus maybe 3 more. Soon come..

Divine Paradox and the Order of Operation

It feels good and weird at the same time to have completed the album and set it free. All the late nights, the stretches of writer's block, the emails across states and continents, the love and effort that went into this project only to find out that apparently I'm doing it all wrong. All this time i thought that if I focused my imagination and and honed my craft that I could create something beautiful and true and maybe....oh no!!
"SURRENDER DOROTHY"!!!
Please..My old partner Mike Peace and I, along with our DJ Maestro(Barry), had the golden opportunity to have a sit down with Leon Sylvers at Teddy Riley's old studio when he lived in VB back in the early 90s. He basically schooled us on some realities of the music business for 4 hours. And another influential brother was Skitch Lovett, may his soul be blessed. The information and advice I got from them made it quite clear for me that while my intention and desire is to be an artist, musician, and writer, as soon as I think I want to fuck with these sharks in the industry I had better come right and be about business. I'm too fucking old to have somebody try to control my image to fit in a small box. Matter of fact, I'm really not just rapping when I write about Jaded Visions!!
You don't believe me? Check this out: how much does it cost to make a hit song!

That's exactly why the underground is so vibrant. Pop music is code for manufactured musical fast food. It's diseased, palsied, mindless and is fed to us with salty pork rinds and high fructose corn syrup at breakfast with a recommended daily allowance that far exceeds levels of sane sanity. It's fake titties. And it's all after the dollar which I'm not knocking one's pursuit of, but at what cost?

Meh..I'm just gonna keep on keepin' on all wrong and bull-headed I guess. I just finished writing two songs, one called "Midnight Blue" for Tokyo producer Pepil Pew, to be featured on his project, and another called "Mindbender" which will be a collab with BeatMachine Aron from Iceland...what?? Shit is gonna be a problem when this comes out. Next I will begin work on tracks with Rendition from Netherlands and the homie Anomeric from Cali. I also just received new heat from two of my faves Keor Meteor and MISHAP. i don't think I have enough fucking rhymes for all the dope cats out there that I would like to work with.

In the pipeline will be an EP with none other than Bobby Blunt. Undoubtedly there will be music from Grand Ear, Vex, Bobby and Stidak. Also in the works is the completion of my beat tape, "Loungin' in the Corners of Catacombs," and another COR STIDAK EP by the end of the year, because you know what's gonna happen at midnight on New Years Eve and i want you all to have a decent catalogue of Stidakizms before the solar flares vaporize most humans and cause the earths poles to shift.

Until then I'll keep being creative and original in my pink walled lab that used to be my daughter's room in my little house on a misunderstood street in good ol' 'Merica. Peace and back to your regularly scheduled program.
