Gym Soundtrack for Today: Jimmy Carr - Before & Laughter (Audiobook)

#JimmyCarr is one of my favourite comedians, and hearing him narrate his own story makes it even better. Brutally funny, unexpectedly thoughtful, and full of sharp insights about ambition, failure, and finding your own path.

Gym soundtrack for today: Big L – Harlem’s Finest: Return of the King & Lifestyles Ov Da Poor & Dangerous

The new album brings rare verses and major features, while the 1995 debut still hits with raw Harlem energy, punchlines, and DITC spirit. Both remind me why L was one of the greatest #RIPBigL

Gym Soundtrack for Today: De La Soul - Cabin in the Sky

It’s been a while since I managed to get into the gym, due to a tweak of my old back injury. What better way than with the new album from De La Soul, who have just dropped their long-awaited new album Cabin in the Sky. #delasoul #RIPDave 🕊️🙏

Gym soundtrack for today: Wildchild - Child of a Kingsman

From Oxnard to the world. Wildchild returns with a powerful blend of hip-hop, jazz & soul featuring Keyon Harrold, Amber Navran, Nottz & more. Legacy, lyricism & fatherhood woven through every bar. A true evolution of the Lootpack spirit.

Away for a few days down in #Hampshire with Lorna — our first break alone in nearly 19 years! Spent today wandering old uni haunts in #Southampton: my old halls of residence, record shops, Ocean Village & The DJ Shop (Shirley). So much has changed, yet it all still feels strangely familiar!!

Mobb Deep returns with Infinite — their first album in over a decade and the first since Prodigy’s passing. Havoc blends unreleased vocals from P with new production, featuring Nas, Raekwon, Clipse, and more. Not heard yet so late to the party!

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Cannibal Ox – The Cold Vein

A landmark in underground hip hop. Vast Aire & Vordul Mega’s cold, poetic vision of NYC over some of El-P’s best production. Gritty, futuristic & raw. A blueprint for independent hip hop that still echoes today. The Cold Vein changed everything.
October 16, 2025 at 5:10 AM
Super hyped for #Cymande tomorrow night at The Albert Hall! True pioneers & heavily sampled by De La, Wu, Fugees, etc. Tracks like Bra & Dove became hip hop staples & fixtures in classic skate videos. A band whose groove never fades, still carrying the message of peace & unity! Anyone else going?

RIP D’Angelo 🙏🕊️

I’ve just found out that we’ve lost one of my favourite artists & the greatest voice of our time. D’Angelo redefined soul music & changed R&B forever. From Brown Sugar to Voodoo to Black Messiah, D’Angelo’s sound & spirit shaped a generation. Rest in peace to a true legend 🕊️🙏👑♾️

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Masters of Illusion - Masters of Illusion

Masters of Illusion stands as a testament to the mind of two of hip-hop’s most inventive, unpredictable, and lyrically daring MCs. Released under the collaboration of Kool Keith, Motion Man & KutMasta Kurt, this is essential! 👌

Gym Soundtrack for Today: DJ Pump – Golden Era: 90–94 Vol. 1

Canadian turntablist DJ Pump takes it back to the foundations with Golden Era: 90–94 Vol. 1, a classic mixtape now streaming on Apple Music. Seamless blends, deep cuts, and raw 90s hip-hop energy—an essential listen for true-school heads.

Gym soundtrack for today: Common - Like Water for Chocolate

Produced largely by one of GOATs, #JDilla and shaped by the #Soulquarians, it blended live instrumentation, loose drum programming, and sharp lyricism. A breakthrough that proved hip-hop could be soulful, political, and timeless. #Common

Gym Soundtrack for Today: Dr. Dooom – First Come, First Served

#KoolKeith at his most unfiltered and brilliant. A grimy, underground masterpiece that killed off Dr. Octagon and redefined underground hip-hop. Twisted rhymes, eerie beats, total originality. One of the greatest MCs ever… fact!!
