RAP ATTACK PICK HIT MOVIE OF THE WEEK
I love reading books or watching TV/movies that both inspire and motivate. I wasn't able to make it to the LA premiere but got to watch this gem in the comfort of my own room tonight.
"KING RICHARD" is that movie with Academy Awards & Oscars all over it.

DJ 3rd Degree’s
Fire Pick of the Week
November 22, 2021
Thanks for continuing to support indie rap music and the Rap Attack DJ’s.
What is good my Hip Hop friends!?!
We are entering the late fall/early winter months which means holiday times with friends and family. We are also nearing the end of 2021 and will soon be entering 2022. I hope this time of the year is special for you and yours. For some of us this year has been very hard, with the loss of so many. Peace and blessings to you and yours. With that said, let’s talk about some new music!
This week I bring you a brand-new single from dynamic producer Apollo Brown who enlists rapper Stalley for a new single called “Humble Wins” (Mello Music Group). The single is the first off their upcoming album release titled “Blacklight”. This single is so soulful, filled with beautiful strings and vocals, topped off with a nice punch of boom bap drums. If you know Apollo’s work, you know this joint is dope, and it is!
Stalley has a nice vocal sound and his lyrics are strong and powerful as he talks about how his journey has been filled with strife yet he pushes on, looking to turn his “L’s” into “W’s”. The song is vocally uplifting and musically beautiful. I really think you are going to like this and I believe the entire project will be worth copping.
We hope you continue to fight thru your own trials and tribulations.May your path be filled with love and beautiful music!
Keep it real out there my people!
Keep up the love and peace that Hip Hop was based on.
One love til next time!!
Namaste!!!

Me Neither!!!
One of the hardest moments in my life is when a RAP ATTACK DJ passes away. They’re not just a dj, but a friend and part of a family.
Over the past years we've lost Ron Miner aka DJ Indiana Jones, DJ Hideo, DJ S.A., Victor Freska Zendejas aka DJ Vic Z, Rob One, Wes Allmond aka DJ Solo, Just-O, Ricky Leigh Mensh & Tom Craven.
On Friday morning, November 5th, DJ Luvva J aka Jose Gutierrez Jr. from KAOS radio in Olympia, WA passed away from complications due to Covid-19.
Luvva J was a loyal RAP ATTACK reporter, a loyal RAP ATTACK CONF CALL DJ & a loyal friend. We’ve been very close friends for many years. He’s the one who convinced me to put my memoirs together and said he would help me.
The two of us were in the process of working on "Time Out.”
On Sunday, November 28th, Grandmixer GMS and I will dedicate our KFOX NIGHTBEAT show to Luvva J. The show airs at 9pm (pst) on www.RainierAvenueRadio.world.
We will play some of his tracks, excerpts from Luvva J, a dedication speech from Charli Terminelli & the very last MasterMix he made for KFOX Nightbeat on September 5, 2021.
Rest in Peace, Luvva J.
I LOVE YOU brother.

(R.I.P.) to the General aka The Mayor of Skid Row here in Los Angeles.
We got the sad news that General Jeff passed away as it was decided to have his life support ended. Jeff had recently been hospitalized for heart issues and needed the help of life support after his condition gravely worsened.
General Jeff was a DJ affiliated with Uncle Jamms Army who first got his start as a part of Bobby Jimmy & The Critters. He wrote for Russ Parr aka Bobby Jimmy and even starred as the rapping roach in the popular parody song “Roaches” in the group’s song and video.
Jeff joined the duo of Rodney O & Joe Cooley, appearing in songs and album covers. He signed with NASTYMIX Records in the early 90’s. Although the group kept the duo’s name in the title, Jeff played a big part in the group making it a trio. After parting from the group, Jeff remained in the industry as an assistant to DJ Quik, helping the legendary producer in the studio and more.
After walking away from the industry, Jeff began his work as an activist for the homeless in the Los Angeles Skid Row section. Jeff attended meetings at City Hall, worked with politicians and obtained services for the homeless. Thanks to his work, many of the homeless obtained meals, products, shelter and other much needed items for their survival. Jeff also stayed on the heads of the LAPD about Black Live Matters issues, partaking in protests and meetings. Jeff also beat a case brought against him by the police. Jeff believed was the target of a department conspiracy due to his activism for the homeless and Black lives.
General Jeff also organized the first and only Skid Row Music Festival showcasing the likes of Public Enemy, Kurupt, Egyptian Lover, Brother J of X-Clan, Yo-Yo, Kid Frost, Lady of Rage and many others. The event was to bring more public awareness to homeless issues and it was held right in the middle of the Skid Row area. Thousands came out to participate. For many it was their first time seeing the camps of homeless people in person. Jeff was dubbed the “Mayor of Skid Row” by many of the homeless for his service.
General Jeff was officially taken off life support on Thursday, October 21st.

Kangol Kid from 80s Group UTFO Fighting Colon Cancer
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know that our diet plays a huge part in our colon health. Here are some of the symptoms:
Blood in your stool, bleeding from the rectum and/or change in the appearance of the stool
- Change in bowel habits or blood in the toilet after having a bowel movement
- Unexplained Fatigue or Weakness
- Anemia
- Unexplained or Unintentional Weight Loss
- Persistent Cramps or Low Back Pain, cramping pain in the lower stomach
- Feeling Bloated or a feeling of discomfort or an urge to have a bowel movement when there is no need to have one
- Sometimes colorectal cancer presents with no symptoms at all
Of course, awareness was raised when Chadwick Boseman died at the age of 34 from Colon Cancer, and now The Kangol Kid from the legendary 80s group UTFO explains how he found out he had Stage-4 Colon Cancer after passing gas in his bedroom and seeing bloody mucus come out.
At the end of the day, a colonoscopy can save lives and many people continue to live after 5 years of a diagnosis of colon cancer when they see a doctor right away and before it has a chance to spread to other organs. Also, talk to your doctor about at-home tests like Cologuard.
At 54 years old Kangol Kid just got out of surgery where he had to have part of his colon removed. He is brutally honest about the process. “I had a section removed from the results from my colonoscopy and it’s basically like connecting pipes together. That’s what I underwent in February.”
He admits he saw the tell-tale signs of bleeding when using the bathroom but as a lot of black men do, he ignored it until it got more serious and he saw bloody mucus when he passed gas.
“What really set it off was I was in the comfort of my own room my own bedroom and I passed gas. I noticed something came out. I ran to the bathroom real quick to see what was and it was bloody mucus. At that point, I told myself OK stop playing Kang and go to the hospital”
He went and was given the diagnosis after a colonoscopy. He said he was initially shocked but then realized he had to fight it, especially for his 5-year-old daughter.

#FLASHING BACK WITH THE HIGH CHILDREN & KRITTA
A KUNG POW! FLASHBACK with
NASTY-NES & BETTY!!!
Jim Kelly quote: “Man you come right out of a comic book!”
I was blessed to have met Shih Kien aka Mr Han from "Enter The Drasgon." It was in the 70's at the U of WA's Hec Edmundson Pavillion. My Sifu Taky Kimura was a guest speaker at the martial arts exhibition & he took me with him.
I was around 14 years old & star struck to meet Mr. Han, who was maybe 5"3" tall and didn't speak English. He lip-synched his lines to the voice of Key Luke, best known as MASTER in the 70's tv series, "Kung-Fu."
But I got to shake his hand & I got his autograph!
One of many memorable moments I spent with my Sifu Taky. (R.I.P.)
