Hulk Hogan In A Sleeper Hold!


The Killer Octopus is not dead,  just been raising a baby.  Man, I thought it would be easy.  I'm going to try my hardest to keep this blog from becoming a dead skeleton in cyberspace.  I'd like to thank the one person that checks back in.   Don't give up on me man/woman.

Check out the mixes if you haven't done so already.  Right click the word mix to download.

Alright Freeeesh!

I was feeling very old school like.  I used a fat font and a clipping mask on photoshop.  



Man, there are a whole lot of scenes that didn't make the cut.  They need to put out a special edition with scene outtakes.

Covering All Biebers


I'm on a mission to make your bedroom look like my bedroom.  I'm hoping to infiltrate the Bieber google image page.   Help me out.  Repost this pic or download the CAB png here and put it on all Bieber pictures.  Nobody, crosses up Common and gets away with it!  Do I have to explain the tag?  It all started with this man here.


This is an update: Please follow the new Cover All Biebers Blog.  If you want to submit a CAB picture please submit your pics at coverallbeibers@gmail.com.

Digging for pictures is fun!




Bboy for life!

The Killer Octopus MNS





Must Not Sleep is the crew I'm down with!  The graphic above is a homage to a punch-line said to me during a freestyle  "MNS must mean: Makes No Sense".  I think it's fitting now since not much of what I do makes sense.  Thanks a lot Anonymous Rapper (you know who you are).  

Speaking of not sleeping, don't sleep on my boy Rawb's mix.  It's a straight banger!

Digging For Pictures is Fun!


I wish I had 4 hand, so I can give those ti##ies four thumbs down. (I just posted a picture with half naked girls and I'm concerned with not spelling out ti##ies.  I can give you a reason, but it just wouldn't make sense.)

Conmen Mixes

Soulman posted an old Conmen mix that I owned and played every day for a long while.    You should check it out and download it here.  It takes a few clicks to get to the actual downloadable link (wait 50 seconds, you'll see).

Dope Sh!# on Youtube!



Old School Hip Hop Mega Mix by Old School Scholar



If you don't know about Soul Man please get familiar.  I wanted to purchase this guy's mix tapes back in the day but never had the money.  Now this guy is serving shit up for free (but he is using some piece of sh!# free download website that is worth crap and I can't download any of them.) and putting stuff on youtube.  If you would like to give it a crack and try to get some dope mixes check out his blog here .  If you do manage to download some mixes hit me up and put me on game.  This guy hasn't posted in a while so send him an email and get him to start this sh!# up again.

Yes Yes Y'all

Center of Attention

Saw this on Grain Edit and I thought it was dope.  It's a site committed to record covers so check out Simon Foster's "Center of Attention".  I think it's time to showcase my gems.  I found the record below at the past Beat Swap meet.  "The milks gone bad!"

Cliff's Notes


Why read the book when you have Cliff's notes?  I thought I'd make it easier for you.  I posted all the past mixes on this post, so you don't have to go through the whole blog.  The mixtapes are all listed in chronological order (they're not all listed because the rest are on the current and previous page, don't be lazy), think of the mixes as chapters.  The first chapter is awesome.  The second chapter is rad.  The third chapter is saucy.  The fourth chapter is meaty.  The fifth chapter is filling.  The sixth chapter is the bread winner.  The seventh is so fucking long but I love it.  The eighth chapter is Sexy.  The ninth chapter is fresh.  The tenth is stupid fresh.  The eleventh is magnifique.  Now go out there and fail that test.

Each link will take you directly to the "mix" link.  Right click the mix to save it or click on the mix to stream.

Mördaren Octopus spelar inte

The Killer Octopus has been international for a long time. Sheeeeeaaaat boy!  I've been down with the global village for minute.

I'm working on a mix.  I tried to complete it today, but it's going to take a little bit longer than I expected.  I hope to have it up by the end of this week.   Been very busy lately.

I have google analytics and a stat counter.  I know when people visit, and none of you are following me.  Maybe . . . maybe, y'all are here for the music and can't understand a got damn word I'm saying.  So, I'm going to help y'all out.  I went to google translate (such a google whore) and wrote "follow me" in 7 different languages.  Maybe y'all will get the hint.  Kon'nichiwa B!t@hes!

Serving up that crack!



Kid Inquisitive is serving up that crack!  This guy slangs 45's by the ton and he brings heat.  So if your in the mood to buy some exqusite tunes check out his Ebay store here; he's just put up a new batch of 45's. 

The Kid has a blog too and it's packed with dope mixes.  He hasn't posted in a few months, but the mixes  on the blog are excellent.   You should give it a gander.  Come back though!


Below, is one of my favorites.  It's called "Heavy Days".  You can find the set list on his blog.  To download the mix, just right click and save.  Enjoy.

It's a New Year.

I know it's been a minute.  I've been lost in my head lately; it has taken some time to shake the cobwebs.  I have a lot of ideas I'd like to complete this year.  I've been trying to formulate a plan to successfully execute every one of them.   Stay tuned, it should be interesting.

Lot's of new things going on in the new year.  Ned Learner just started a new blog and you should check it out.  He's posting his show's (Recognition and Instrumental) set list, past mixes and live performances performed on "Instrumental".   Become a member, it'll make you feel good about yourself.

Pure honey, and the cavities are coming.  Oooh Honey Child!
