My WIB brother Michael (602Diggler) has been very lowkey with some heads from DigiCrates crew in Japan working on this fresh compilation for quite a while! Im currently listening to this joint while I’m making this post and its definitely worth listening to! Check out what Michael said about this compilation…

Introducing a unique compilation compiled from the styles of “602Diggler” representing The Word Is Bond and “Cory Atkins” representing DigiCrates Records.. For the future endeavours taking place here on WIB, we had stated before that we where going to take bigger steps into the 2012 year onward to stain the brains of the masses of readers to from across the globe and to make a positive difference for the music and artists we support..So what we have here Ladies and Gentlemen is a 20 track compilation, First 10 tracks compiled from the handpicked venom on the DigiCrates Records side and then the second set if 10 heat rocks slapped up from 602Diggler WIB side.. It’s very choice in a versatile quality set of instrumentals and hip hop in unison projecting from both sides of a musical point of view.. It’s highly recommended that you play this at high volume and slap properly, as it’s a first pertaining to a classic compilation of musical birth and with an outbreak of volumes to come… Sit back and take everything, vibe with us, and enjoy..GHEA!!!

Soul Sessions: From LA to Japan [05/13]!

Another #SoulSessions exclusive. #JapanBenefit. With special guest DJs for your listening pleasure: House Shoes, Rhettmatic, Jedi, Sean O, Mr. Choc, and the Soul Sessions resident fam!  

There have been many fundraisers for Japan that have taken place when
the disaster first occurred, but we take on an “out of sight, out of mind”
attitude when there is no longer “hype” on the subject.

Remember, the tsunami occurred less than 2 months ago!

There will be a long recovery process for those that lost everything, material
belongings and more importantly, loss of loved ones.

Part of the proceeds from your cover fee will be donated to:

The Nippon Foundation via CARE FOR JAPAN.

CARE FOR JAPAN enables Americans to contribute to The Nippon Foundation’s
long-term community reconstruction efforts. The focus is on orphans, the disabled,
the elderly, immigrants, and others whose particular needs are often left unmet in
difficult circumstances.

For nearly 50 years, The Nippon Foundation has helped Japan’s towns and
neighborhoods deliver social and health services to those in need. The Foundation
has unrivalled experience in immediate disaster assistance in Japan, helping the
most vulnerable following the 1995 Kobe Earthquake, the 1997 Mikuni oil spill, the

Japan: Hope For Tomorrow – (Worldwide Fundraising Album)

Yesterday this album was released in regards to the tragic events that went down in Japan, as the number of deaths are reaching up to a little over 9000. It’s terrible to see what they’re going through, and there are now worries of radiation being in the water. My friends have previously put together fundraisers in support of this tragedy and send the money out to many non-profit organizations, and last week I mentioned to a few of my friends about doing the same exact thing.. I guess now, this project speaks for me (along with my brothers). Read more down below…
