Today, as MHz Legacy continues to celebrate the release of their self-titled debut album,
they’re taking part in the tradition of Throwback Thursday with one of the rarest songs from their vaults,
“The Only Weathermen Song.” The song, accompanied here by new, exclusive artwork, stands apart
as a classic from the early 2000s era of hip-hop and marks one of the only times that Copywrite, Cage, El-P,
Camu Tao, Tage Future, Cannibal Ox, Jakki Da Motamouth, and Yak Ballz (otherwise known as The Weathermen)
were all in one studio at the same time.

Reminiscing on the song, Copywrite says:

“Back in 2001, 2002, Camu and I where living in Middletown, New York. Cage lived there too, which is why
I moved out there. We where supposed to go on a tour with all of the Eastern Conference Records artists,
but Mad Skillz pulled out to vacation, so the tour fell through. Cage wasn’t too fond of Camu back then but
‘Mu expressed to me how bad he wanted to go to pursue music with me and I told him to come along.
In those days, we would always drive my Ford Explorer from Middletown to Manhattan to record at DJ Mighty Mi’s
spot on Lexington, and then we’d go visit El-P in Brooklyn and crash for several nights at a time. Vast Aire
and Vordul Mega, of Cannibal Ox, had their own room downstairs and El’s studio was right next door,
so there was always music going on.”

“This song was recorded around the time I was working on my debut album, The High Exhaulted, and Cannibal Ox
was working on their album, The Cold Vein. It was a rare occasion to have Tage Future, Camu Tao, Jakki Da Motamouth,
Cage, Cannibal Ox, El-P, and myself all in the same room at once, so I told them we needed to seize the moment
and record something. El started pulling up beats and we all instantly agreed on this one. The beat played
and we wrote – whoever had their verse first hit the mic booth, which, at that time, was El-P’s closet, and the rest is history.
Camu was probably smokin’ a blunt with Vordul, so neither of them is on the song; I don’t know why El didn’t drop a verse.
Back then we titled it “The Only Weathermen Song,” since it was so tough to get all of us together at the same time.”

This past October, Georgia Anne Muldrow and DJ Romes united as Blackhouse, a crew hellbent
on resurrecting the electro-inspired dance-party fun of early hip-hop—with a modern twist.
Their eponymous Mello Music Group album was greeted with arms wide open by older heads and young fans alike.

For those still out the loop, MMG and Blackhouse offer up “Lectrivunkin” for you to sample.
Let the proverbial needle drop on a decent sound system and watch as people’s heads begin to bob,
hips start to sway, and vibrations rise. The synth carves deep, producing a sound both beautiful and ominous.
The nearly four minute song is vocal-less save for a sample reminding you the energy of this track is “out of control.”

Don’t be late to the party, Blackhouse is warmed up and groovin’. The last one to the jam is an L7…you know the rest.
Blackhouse is in stores now! You can pick it up on CD & vinyl from Fat Beats, & digitally at the Band Camp link above.
