In episode two of Killer Mike and Trackstar’s Educated Villains podcast, Mike speaks on his successful 2012, shares highlights from the Coachella Cruise, including freestyling on DJ Z-Trip’s set as the Mayan calendar didn’t kill us all and El-P being called racist for refusing to buy Bahamian trinkets. On the music side of things, they premiere Killer Mike’s freeverse over Trinidad James “All Gold Everything,” and play other tunes from the likes of Royce Da 5’9″, Raekwon, ScHoolboy Q, Action Bronson and more.

The Smoking Section‘s Trackstar The DJ connects with Killer Mike for the debut episode of their podcast.
“While Trackstar weaves in the tunes, Mike waxes on various topics ranging from his recent tour with GZA, Obama’s victory (“We won… next month I might make a song called Barack, like “Reagan,” if I get pissed off about something”) to the shocking circumstances under which Mitt Romney could earn his vote for the rest of the foreseeable years (“If he ever publicly comes out and supports polygamy, I’m voting for that motherfucker til the day I die”).”

Tomorrow night, El-P and Killer Mike are hitting the road in support of both of their recently-released albums Cancer 4 Cure and R.A.P. Music respectively (both of which can be ordered here). And to help y’all get ready, Trackstar the DJ put together a mix of album cuts and features from Mr. Motherf*ckin’ eXquire and Despot (who are also joining in on the live run).

In the same light as Growth & Patience: Best of Royce Da 5’9″ v.1; Trackstar the DJ & The Smoking Section have got together again to release Pride & Paranoia: Best of Joe Budden for youse out there to download and put on your iPod Zune. Dumb Out, Dear Diary, Broken Wing, If I Die Tomorrow, etc. They are all here but of course there will be some disagreements from people on the final tracklist (I’m one of those people btw) but they did a pretty good job at getting together a good collection.

As I said when I posted dude’s video last night, Wafeek‘s new mixtape would be dropping today. Teaming up with the Smoking Section & Trackstar the DJ. I’m not familiar with ‘feek’s music at all, but after checking the video and reading what Gotty had to say I’m convinced I’ll be a fan from now on.
