Those that know about me of have read through my Blog will know that I’m unfunded film maker. In 1997 I started working on my project ‘The Men & Their Music’. The Paul C film started out as a chapter of that, manifesting into its own project.
TeQnotic and I worked together on this project creating a poster fitting for the film. I played the role of Art Director, TeQnotic the artist. Here is your chance to own 1 of 50 limited Edition Posters signed by myself the director of the film. As a thank you gift to those that supported the project, took part in the project, members of Paul’s Family I am trying to raise the funds to get posters printed and shipped to them.
This is a one of chance to own a copy of the poster never to be reprinted. If you watched the film and would like to support real independent film making, please feel free to show your support.
Here is the Third and final part of the film about Queens Legendary Producer and Engineer Paul C McKasty. A man that contributed a great deal to the Golden Era of Hip Hop Music. As in the Article on the previous Post this is no way the definitive story or Film. There is still a few key people missing.
I hope that after watching this that they may want to contribute some footage that would make it the definitive film. I would really like to thank all those that took part and believed in me from the get go. Lindley Farley and CJ Moore who where the driving force behind me who’s words in previous conversations I cherished and kept in my heart and soul, this film as I always said is a film made for you.
Along the road I have now collected over a 1000 hours of Hip Hop footage and interviews. If I could I would love to make a film on the following, the offer is there. Marley Marl, Large Pro, Diamond D, Johnny Juice and my mentor and big Brother Jazzy Jay. A more personal look at the men ‘The Men and their Music’.
Thank you to all the people who have been contacting me with their thoughts about the film, Rhythmfrom the group Phase and Rhythm who after watching Part 1 & 2 contacted me and withing a day shot and sent me a piece to be added to the film. If Large Pro, Rhazeland Bizafter seeing this would like to contribute some footage please get in touch. Thanks to Stezoand Cool Vwho have agreed to send some footage.
Monday I will be dropping a video –Behind the making of the ‘Memories of Paul C McKasty Poster’. Art created by Paul C’s High school friend TeQnotic.
This is by all means not the definitive documentary or story of Paul C McKasty. The Legendary producer from Queens NYC who had his life cut short aged only 24 years old. This is a film put together from a footage I had accumulated from 2000 to April 2013.
Friends, Family and Fellow artists share some personal stories of their time with the man. I am as you may know a record collector and Hip Hop activist. I can admit that I never knew or had every record that Paul C had touched, I have plenty of them, not all of them. In the late 90s I had got to know Nottingham based group the P-Brothers very well.
I was around as Ivory made his now notorious ‘Here No Evil’ CD. He used to show me records I had missed out on, a lot of Paul C’s productions. Prior to that I had gone to New York to start work on my film ‘The Men & Their Music’. Chronicling the birth of New School Hip Hop, from 86 on. Interviewing Ced Geeand Moe Love they spoke highly of Paul, this was the beginning of filming a chapter on the man from Queens.
As I began editing the film the Chapter on Paul.It was so long that it manifested it self into its own film. Learning so much more about the man, watching back the footage of CJ Moore and how heartfelt he spoke about his friend. I felt that this was a story that needed to be shared.
As you will see there is absence of some very key people, not to say I never tried to contact them, those that know me very well can confirm I did. My challenge was that I had made a rough of this film so many years ago, what do i do?, hold out hoping that one day they will want to tell there story which I did for nearly 7 years or drop the film?
Bear in mind Ive never been a sponsored film maker or belong to any in or popular crowds. I was just a man with a camera traveling round filming when ever i could. In my early days building my reputation maybe there was a miss trust from some artists, who is this guy?. Time has showed that I kept my word and that I’m a man that prides him self on his integrity. So I made the decision to drop the film.Maybe those missing can see it for what it is, I can always re-edit. If anyone has photos of Paul that i can insert into the film (who would not mind) please contact me?
I would like to thank all those that contributed footage towards the project and believed in me. Rakim who took time out of his tour to do this. Dr Butcher who traveled from Texas to NYC to link up with Damian Wilkes to shoot his piece. Lindley Farley for his guidance throughout.
Another reason i never dropped the film was that there is a video that exists of Paul making beats in his studio, but it was amongst hundreds and hundreds of video tapes in a spot in NYC, to this day it’s not been found.
I made a choice not to feature a soundtrack to the film, the audio quality of some of the footage, but mainly because this is not like one of those movies that sensationalize and concentrate on the death and mystery behind it. This is sincere stories from people who loved the man. I stripped the film down to the raw footage. Its not often you get to see such films like this about artists of this genre. Most people will know of Rakim, but you tell me where you ever see him like this on film?
Paul C played a huge part not just in the music but helping develop some of the groups who today are considered classic. Mikey D, Super Lover C and Casanova Rud, Main Source, Large Pro, Organised Konfusion, Rhazeland Ultras to name a few.
In a day when music has become so disposable, bed room studios, back track listen to music produced by the likes of Paul C, there is a reason why that music is classic and never tiring, it was a made by a man that was not a beat maker but a master of his craft.
When i was last in NYC I was speaking to Finesse, and i asked him has he not jumped onto the DJ thing with the 45’s. His answer to me was ‘Nah man that not me, never was me. I love records, 45’s was Diamondsthing he’s been doing that for ever.
Here is the master doing one of the things he does best
Personally my favorite track from the group. Reminds me back to a trip to NYC. First meeting Mikey D in Queens. Riding in his car through the borough. Talking about the past. I asked him to spit a rhyme. He still got it. I said to Mikey I’m going to make something happen.
Alongside Kevin DeCosta and K-Kutwe planned to bring Mikey D over alongside the original 2 DJs from the group Main Source. We could not get the group over for family commitments. K-KUT gave me his blessings to be the groups DJ and to use the name for that tour.
The love that Mikeywas met with here in the UK. Was beyond his expectations. Whilst on the tour I introduced him to Sparkii Skiwho was the KOTB host on the tour. The rest is history. MikeyReturned to the USA a new man.
On the ferry, Chen Ping an was in his house, carving a seal with inscriptions on it. At the foot of the mountain, carving on gold and stone was always more difficult than inscriptions on inscriptions in inscriptions.After a group of three people walked out of the house, Liu Qingfeng stopped at the door and said with a smile I will chat with Mr.
The old viewer really couldn t stand this Wu Shuangjiang, so he shook off his majesty and went elsewhere.The one who doesn t drink well. Xu Yuanxia thought that many years ago, she was still a bold and bearded swordsman, and the drunkard opposite was still a young man.
The small martial arts gym in Xianyou County, Qingyuan County, had a large number of guests appear out of thin air.
I want to beat Cao Ci seven times in a row. It s admirable. It s not that you intentionally eavesdropped, but you When I spoke, the martial artist s appearance was a bit scary, so I couldn t hold it back.Or it s snowing to admire the scenery, dressed in white and holding a green bamboo stick, or it s raining heavily, holding an umbrella and slowly walking, twisting peach branches in his hands.
This man with a sword of more than 10 meters is not saying anything, so he is talking. The key is It s still the kind of silence that is better than sound.
Yu Mi felt even more aggrieved, lying on the table, twirling the tea cup with his fingers, They say that your sword masters in Luzhou, Beiju, are as good as the clouds, and there are swordsmen everywhere, and you can grab a lot of them.
Chen Pingan put his hand to his eyebrows, with a look of pain on his face. In one of the three dreams in the Creation Cave, someone was the first to open the sky, and someone else ascended to the sky later Behind the two people, there were several more people, and then dozens of people.Liu Zong nodded and said, Our Mirage City is famous for heavy snowfall every year. The Goddess of Burial River Water deeply agreed, nodded lightly, and sighed.
If the two travelers in front can turn raindrops into invisible things like them, then someone will naturally come forward to stop the children from continuing to play with umbrellas.A comprehensive list of geographical records in the twelfth year of Yuanzhen At this point, Liu Mao raised his arm and raised the wine bottle toward the window, and then took a silent sip of wine, as if he was paying homage to the Liu Mao of that year.
He was aspiring to the eight extremes, and his mind was wandering to thousands of miles. During the long career of traveling to study and monasticism, he continued to collect books.But later his official career did not go well, so he simply resigned and continued to travel. When the war came, he Relying on Zu Yin, he took the initiative to serve as an official in the Ministry of War of Caiyi.
He goes out for a long trip and the mountains and rivers are floating. These years are not as leisurely as our Shao Poxian from Huimeng Mountain.Among the top ten young people in Aquarius, and over the years, the ranking has continued to rise. Now he has surpassed Fengleiyuan Sword Cultivator Liu Baqiao.
I can conclude that in the past few years, the old bastard was clearly aware of this. But he deliberately didn t say a word to me. It s okay.According to the new law, Dali divided Jinshi into the top five. In the end, in addition to the first three who won the first prize, the second grade was awarded the title of Jinshi and Maolinlang, fifteen people, the third and fourth grade Jinshi were more than 300 people, and the third grade Jinshi.
Cui Chang remembered something he said for no reason. A gentleman can only cultivate his heart by being sincere.He Gu and Yu Xiehui rushed over, shouting that they wanted to go together to learn more. Bai Xuan sighed and shook his head, Childish, very childish.
Cui Dongshan smiled brightly, put his fingers together, twirled something, handed it to Chunqing, put it down gently, and she Opening your palms, you can see ripples of mountains and rivers floating in the air.You are on the border between the two countries. The official road is within the boundaries of the temple, and there are many merchants passing by.
Take you to a good place. The next moment, Han Yushu was also in the two level restriction of heaven and earth.The key is that the Jiang family also opened a mirror flower, water moon in Huangheji. I don t know how many female monks on the mountain came to Huangheji s mansion in the Yunku blessed land.
He held a pen in both hands and held another one in his mouth, writing and drawing at will. It s nothing more than a few paintings by famous artists purchased from Hongzhu Town Bookstore on the desk.From the beginning, he was not in a hurry, but then he went to Yu Feng to travel far away, and soon he disappeared.
It was A Liang who banged the bowl with his chopsticks and cried out before I agreed. The old man wanted to die. The old blind man has committed a crime.Chen Pingan nodded, Look more and listen more. The team of cavalry came on horseback, both men and horses in armor, as if they were cutting through thorns.
Han Yushu shook his head and smiled and said, Forget it, Wanyao Sect does not lack this talisman. Jiang Shangzhen said, I am a sword cultivator. I can write the Five Mountains.And the Great Li Song Dynasty, which was a country and a continent in those days, encompassed the entire Aquarius Continent, and was still ranked at the bottom among the ten great dynasties of Haoran.
Pei Qian gathered his voices and asked curiously, This guy who is enshrined as a protector of Zhengyang Mountain has a very high level and a very hard fist It doesn t look like it.He identified the secret swordsman in front of him as the Sword Immortal who cut through the sea with one sword and forced the mirage back.
The slightly cross eyed Yu leaned back, his body slipped and he collapsed. Leaning on the chair, he took a long breath and said, Shu Tan, I will make a few chairs like this in the future.This guy has been very prosperous in Fuyaozhou in recent years. He insisted on dividing one continent and two armies.
Song Jixin suddenly said deliberately Do you want me to help clear the place After all, he is a vassal king, so he has this ability There are still some.It would stay for an hour and buy various pearls with the monks of Luhua Island. As long as the ferry passengers hold a green bamboo talisman sword, they can use the wind to go to the temporary Xianjia ferry at the pearl quarry.
Seeing that the thief was rich, he also liked to call himself Master Cao s most proud disciple. He seemed to respect his master, so he would probably be willing to spend money.The person who inscribed the boundary monument was the Landscape Department of the Ministry of Rites of the Northern Jin Dynasty.
Half of what he said was Chen Pingan s true words. As long as Pei Qian wanted to deal with the rouge and gouache, let alone the heavy and colorful way, of course light make up would be fine.I have been so worried until now that I have to say goodbye after saying thank you. We meet each other and we are separated. Who of us will follow the other Chen Ping an became more and more helpless.
It was as if he had been struck by five thunders too many times today. The little Jindan couldn t bear it anymore. Jiang Shangzhen had no choice but to teach the secret technique of Jade Guizong s swearing.
Yesterday, the eldest princess sent someone to investigate the conflict between Xu Qi an and Zhu Chengzhu.Suicide by hanging from a beam is not something glorious, let alone the dignity that a scholar like him should have, so it cannot attract the attention of the government.
The sentence Mo Chou has no confidant in the future, no one in the world knows the king is already a stroke of genius, I am glad to hear it, and I hope to come up with another song, no, two songs, so that the two of you will be immortalized together forever If you care too much about fame and fortune, how will the arrogance in your stomach survive over time After being ridiculed, Li Mubai and Zhang Shen were a little embarrassed.
We must die.Xu Qi an said in a deep voice.Xiao Douding s happy laughter interrupted their conversation.Xu, kneel down and kowtow, and call Grandpa twice.I can spare your life.
The desk used by the emperor was placed in the front hall, and there was no one there.I m old and faint, I can t see clearly.Jianzheng said, and then he gave up.
Where s your dignity Brother, what is dignity have a future.old lady His natal Gu almost lost control.Dad said, after thousands of years, Gu God finally recovered, but this is not a good thing.
Your Excellency has done a great job in assisting in handling the case, and His Majesty forgives him for his crimes.The yamen who was beaten would think, who did he offend recently After thinking about it, oh It s Zhou Li, that bastard.
Xu Qi an glanced at them It is possible, then, there is a flower garden under the wall, are there any footprints in the flower garden when sneaking in It is reasonable to say that if the thief can jump up outside the wall, he can cross the flowerbed without leaving footprints.Xu Qi an saw that it was a centaur, and the painter was not bad.
Li Daru grabbed the reins of the horse and drove the cart himself, and said slowly This is a good horse that can travel thousands of miles a day.Even if they know their identities, it is not a big problem because there is no conflict of interest.
Non violent non cooperation Xu Qi an was a little angry.There are courtyards, lofts, squares, and waterfalls in the mountains.
My aunt sighed.Before going to Yunlu Academy last month, the family still had savings of dozens of taels of silver, but as soon as I came back, my aunt would tear up my second uncle on the spot, saying that he was out fooling around.Lu Qing thought for a while and said, Let Wu Zuo check it out first.
The kingdom of ten thousand demons Xu Qi an recalled the history of Jia Zi s demons.Xu Qi an put down the rice paper, calmed down the shock of the three views, and said, I came to Sitianjian this time, and I want to ask Brother Song for help.
We can t deal with Zhou Li.There are too complex and elaborate plans because the gaps between them are too great.The chest is swollen, it should be wearing underwear that corsets the chest.
This is one of them.Secondly, Zhang Yourui died from a blunt weapon blow, not a sharp weapon.The girl in the yellow skirt has a different opinion Human meat is not more delicious Well, wait a moment, I ll finish the buns first.
You can send messages thousands of miles away.A while ago, I received a distress message from Senior Brother Jin Lian, telling him that he had gone to the capital of Dafeng, because only by entering the capital could he avoid being hunted down by the Tiandihui.No.2 continued I wiped out more than a dozen groups of bandits, and discovered that there are deeper forces hidden behind them.
He rolled his eyes and kicked his legs, and passed out.Zhao Shouyan said with a smile, Is it because Wei Yuan is getting more and more uncontrollable, or is the dragon slaying technique of those nobles getting sharper It s for the people of Dafeng, for the sake of the world.
Bang The white piece at the fingertips of Emperor Yuan Jing fell on the chessboard.
It seems that even if I can defeat one of them, I still have no confidence in facing Soul Devouring True Monarch.Not only intentionally or unintentionally, before Shao Nan left Desang City, the entire Desang City knew that the former genius Alan was going to leave Bibo Huanyue Island and enter the sea to find opportunities.
I can t help but feel tight in my heart, could it be that I have revealed something This is Allen Was he the first place in the previous illusion exchange conference Now the illusion level has fallen Hush Keep your voice down.In the area where the Sacred Fire Glazed Tile Sect was in charge of entertaining distinguished guests, one of the caves was ordinary in appearance but luxurious in interior.
However, the formation of Yin Mei Zhenyi s cave is quite impressive.Based on Shao Nan s understanding of Xiaocao er s unreliability, if it is fifty miles, it may fluctuate by four or five miles.
One must know that Fu Xiaoxia and Shao Nan are the same age, and now that Fu Xiaoxia is in the middle stage of foundation establishment, she already looks like a young woman in her thirties.Shao Nan only encountered one attack when he flew a hundred or two hundred feet away.
Shao Nan looked at Lan Yuanzhou who was sitting in front of him with a wicked smile on his face, and was a little speechless.Seeing Wuling Fenghuo in front of him, Shao Nan couldn t help but think of the chrysanthemum tea he had been drinking for nearly a year.
Who was the senior who fought just now An old man in a Taoist robe asked.Is it true that Xinghuo Shinichi is issued according to the ranking label This accuracy, this memory, is worthy of returning to the void Shinichi.
If the person above knows what happened, he will definitely change the plan.I think there must be other ideas.The foundation building Dzogchen monk who led the team was a little disappointed.
This formation is only a small part of a huge formation, and it is a very small part.The first advantage is that it can promote the exchange of all fire control schools in the Colorful Continent, learn from each other, learn from each other, and encourage each other.
But jumping into the magma, which is still erupting magma, is really hard to accept psychologically.Shao Nan was worrying about how to integrate into the Bibo Huanyue Clan, Xiaocao er was a timely help.
The island was heard, and the surrounding seas began to fluctuate.To be continued.Chapter 359 Apprenticeship Do you have a master Would you like to worship me as a teacher Nine Li Sword Master asked coldly.
For example, the team of old men with goatees will never come back.It turns out that there are such things, such spells, such magical secret realms, and such heaven defying materials.
I have long felt that You Zhixin is not simple, and it really is.He was also trying his best to break the formation of the volcano forbidden area.
The Bibo Huanyue Clan has a secret method, which requires enough members of the tribe to use the six pointed star eyes to cast illusions at the same time.The wind, thunder and fire are perfectly integrated to form a three color chain.
The competition will be held in a year s time.Anyone in the Colorful Continent who thinks they have good fire control skills can participate.The three hundred feet ahead did not take much time for Shao Nan.
The monks who came to watch.Most of them are really watching the excitement.Shao Nan didn t expect that the first time Sword Master Jiuli saw him, the first sentence would be so direct, so straight to the point, he couldn t help being stunned for a moment.
Hey I thought it was something, isn t it hot pot What Are you going to change your job from a blacksmith to a chef Of course, Lan Yuanzhou never forgot to tease Shao Nan.Helping Zhou Yuliu form a pill should be somewhat certain.
Every monk will cherish every minute and every second.The chrysanthemum tea is so powerful It seems that my chrysanthemum tea is not in vain Then if I drink it for hundreds of years, will I be immune to the ninth level spiritual fire in the future Shao Nan was delighted.
Shao Nan stood firmly in his position, and the formula in his hand never stopped.Rage fire test.Shao Nan used to have one name after another.
Presumably both of you know each other Shao Nan took out an exquisite jade bottle from the storage bracelet.This was the first time he turned around and looked behind him.
There are even some people who originally only wanted to refine high level magic weapons, but finally got top level magic weapons, and everyone was ecstatic.Marquis Wen laughed at himself.Boss Wen, there is one thing that I really don t understand, and I hope to get some clarification.
Toxic Wu Yan never forgot to remind.Okay Got it The disciples of their Sacred Fire Glazed Tile Sect are afraid of me.I said why I blocked it.The fear is that we will find out that he is going to abduct Lan Yin and cause dissatisfaction.
Just now I have set up a prohibition to isolate spiritual consciousness scanning.Just now I thought he just made up.However, The one next to him should be Lan Yuanzhou who boarded Hong Qing Restaurant with Fairy Lan Yin, right What It turned out to be him Could it be that this person is the secret weapon of the Sacred Fire Glazed Tile Sect Usually, the test results came out quickly, but everyone didn t feel anything, but this time everyone felt that it was too slow.
It is also a relatively strong team.However, except for Shao Nan, all of the team went to Lanning State to practice.Why did it take more than a year before there was any movement It was still so weird.
Shenmeng Restaurant It has become a thing of the past.You really blinded five of you.Lingfenghuo.Haha Fan Tianyou immediately laughed when he saw the situation.
Generally speaking, whether an event can become a sensational event can only be evaluated after the fact.
Not enough For concern.Yan Jianbai said lightly after taking a sip of his tea.There are still two days before the wine tasting, which should be enough to solve Fujia s problem by himself.
If someone passed by at this time and saw Shao Nan s situation, they would be shocked.However, under Shao Nan s control, Feijian became smaller and smaller.
It is said that Lian Qingxiu is stronger.People who can walk with Lan Yin and Lian Qingxiu will be too weak So the behavior of the seven people immediately attracted the attention of countless people.And it may be something outside our control.Let Luo Jing go back and cooperate with the other two comrades to inform our sect.
It s not in vain to deliberately suppress the realm.Although it was just showing off, it gave Shao Nan enough face.
His situation is really big enough.Lan Yuanzhou even recruited Yun Tianlin, who had been friends with him for a long time, to be his buddy together.Most of the people in the sect are master craftsmen.
Although I had greeted the Faling of the cave in advance, there were still more than 6,000 people there after all, and anything could happen.Shao Nan is using this small part to determine which part of the formation this piece is.
Brother, I.The hairy boy who hadn t climbed to the third floor suddenly lit up when he heard Lan Yin s words.A thousand fire control geniuses were dumbfounded at this moment.
Even Zihuang Shinichi felt the pressure.But Zihuang s cave is next to Jiuli Mountain, not far away.However, Shao Nan was either retreating or drinking chrysanthemum tea, and he had never observed other people s fire control skills.
Although Shao Kang doesn t have spiritual roots, Zhou Yuliu s spiritual roots are very good, and Shao Kangping s spiritual roots are not bad.Any problem in any link is very dangerous.Then you are very good It seems that the two of us have the easiest task.
Although this kind of spiritual root can also cultivate immortals, the efficiency is quite low, and it is almost difficult for friends to achieve too much.Shao Nan was even more surprised than Lan Yin.He just said it casually just now, but he didn t expect it to be true.
There are still burning chains breaking, but the speed is much, much slower, almost the same as the speed Shao Nan summoned, but a little slower.The Bibo Huanyue clan wanted to deal with the human race, and they had already reached the point of using any means.
Although the Hunyuanshen Jinmu is not the origin of heaven and earth, it is still very powerful as a mineral source that can derive gold and wood attributes.Let me pick up a cheap one, otherwise this Tianmingyun alone Caozhi is not something that can be bought with spirit stones.
Seeing the more and more excited expression of the leader, Lan Yin understood that she had to stand up, otherwise Shao Nan would be ruined if she was found out.Here is the legendary five spirits and phoenix fire.
I m running around alone, am I looking for death Gu Yueyou was a little annoyed.I should feel a little uncomfortable.Shao Nan was overjoyed, since he would not be afraid of such powerful magma, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
As soon as Chai Jingming took out the Yuzhu slip, Shao Nan knew it was broken.This, about 60 to 70.Facing Lan Yin s toughness, Fan Tianyou was a little surprised.
At the same time, he was speechless about Xinghuo Shinichi and the three returning to the void.Clang clang A phoenix cry came out suddenly, as if a real phoenix was nearby.
How dare Shao Nan use this critical moment.Almost instantly, Shao Nan s Langya Xuanyan Sword collided with the shadow along with a line of fire.Shao Nan quickly called out the inheritance activation of Dayan Jinxian.
Hehe It s right here.Fellow Daoist has formed a golden core at such a young age, and his future is limitless.As far as I know, there are no less than ten teams that have entered the periphery of the forbidden area of the magic spring in the past few days, and we have not found any traces.
Ever since he got it, Shao Nan kept it in an obscure corner.Some monks simply came to watch every day.Of course, there were also some monks who secretly felt that something big would happen today, and appeared in front of the flame of anger test stele.
Being able to have such a master, Shao Nan feels that the Dao Natural Sect will never decline.Only temporarily suspended.Oh my god It s amazing, Shao Nan Only the snow inside the sect has melted, and the snow outside is still so thick.
There is no need for a swearing in meeting, no need for any encouragement, and there is still half an hour before Chenshi.However, when Shao Nan came, the result was completely different.
