CAPPUCCINO EXCELLENTE’ BRIGANTE’ – CAPPUCCINO IS.. THE PRODUCER’S BEST FRIEND! Vol 1: The Alchemist Sessions (mixtape)
From Eddie Meeks who we have been collaborating with most recently on the album “No Concept…Just Dope”:
“CAPPUCCINO IS.. THE PRODUCER’S BEST FRIEND! Vol 1: The Alchemist Sessions “(#TBPF) is an interlude between FLUSH THE THRONE EP (#FTT) and the forthcoming DOE-CINO EP.
He may just be your mom’s, kid’s, and favorite rappers favorite rapper. He IS the producer’s best friend. Just as #FTT is a movement, #TPBF is a declaration. An addition to an already stellar catalogue of music, Cappuccino is… The Producer’s Best Friend, features the solid production, substantial lyricism, and unequivocal, uncompromising signature voice of Meeks.
The 6 song digital mixtape TPBF features CINO on Alchemist beats mixed by Jon Doe, with a Soul Assassin mix of Assassinated (Unauthorized Records).
The forthright word slinger has been recording and releasing music for the better part of two decades and his resume reads like a who’s who in underground hip-hop:
TPBF is equal parts homage and gift to fans of Hip Hop.
“This project is available @ eddiemeeks.bandcamp.com for FREE download as a gift to HIP HOP lovers around the world! All we ask for in return is that you listen to it, enjoy it, and let The Alchemist know about it via his Twitter @ALANTHECHEMIST. We thank you!!!”- DOECINO

per countbassdoc.com:
Count Bass D has been the quintessential underground hip-hop musician for the past twenty years. This film seeks to explore the work, inspiration and motivation of an artist who has gained international attention and acclaim, struggled through setbacks and false starts, and who, over the years, has inspired an entire generation of independent artists still searching for recognition themselves.
How does an artist’s spirit evolve and endure over time? Having reached professional heights, but still forced to grapple with the realities of working class America, Count Bass D occupies an advantageous position to speak on art, life, family, and articulate the strange priorities unique to those who abandon stability and certainty to chase dreams.
Full Count: a short doc on Count Bass D is joint production by YearoftheFilm and CountBassD.com and is available OCTOBER 8TH for the low price of $5 at Countbassdoc.com
Here is the Press Release:
Brooklyn, NY – The terms “independent” and “underground” have rarely epitomized another musician more than hip-hop journeyman Dwight Farrell. In a candid new documentary, the versatile instrumentalist, lyricist and producer speaks about his 20 years making music under the rap moniker Count Bass D.
FULL COUNT follows the artist in his day-to-day, into the studio and on the road immediately after significant personal upheaval relocated him to Atlanta. Featuring new interviews and footage, Count Bass D opens up bearing hard truths about music, family, and the necessary sacrifices when you make music and inspiration your income.
Fresh from releasing five instrumental albums named after each of his children, Count always seems to have another project in the works. “I just keep putting one foot in front of the other. That’s my secret,” says Count. The longevity of his independent music career continues to impress.
An intimate portrait film, FULL COUNT is a glimpse into the tumultuous existence of one of the preeminent independent and underground musicians today, and one who has helped redefine those terms for countless other musicians who have followed.
In addition to the film, a previously unreleased Count Bass D track will be included in the download. FULL COUNT: a short documentary on Count Bass D, will be released Oct. 8th exclusively on the film’s website, CountBassDoc.com as an HD digital download and for just $5.
