Longtime readers will undoubtedly recognize Griff's name, as he's been contributing music here for several years. As one half of J-Direct, founder of Rhyme City and freelance producer - most recently on the summer blockbuster Bring Me the REMIX of Zilla Rocca - Griff's established a signature sound that's unlike what just about anyone else is doing in hip hop right now.

To showcase his talents, he's put together a collection of remixes for his new EP Griff Remixes Vol. 1. The highlights include a flip of Digital Underground's classic Kiss You Back into a synthed-out pop joint that sounds like it came right out of the 80's, and a remake of Common's 1-9-9-9 that brings the song into the 21st century. Peep:

After you check out Griff's EP, head on over to his new blog bordering insubordination. Over there you'll find links to various Rhyme City projects, Griff's thoughts on the NFL and random J-Direct trivia (who knew radio personality and waterboarding enthusiast Mancow used J-Direct as his background music?).
