Hype Williams always made good videos, Kenna just recently started making decent music, together… you get this. Videos just as fun and crazy as the song. I like the fear and loathing scene at the end too. Kenna’s Make Sure They See My Face album is pretty good. Very different and fresh, and features alotta great neptunes production (although i think Pharrell really took the reigns on this one).

Its a scientifically proven fact that anything Dr.Dre touches turns to gold; this is proof. During my random music search today, I came across some random Rolling Stones songs, including the remix of Miss You that Dre did for the… lol…. Austin Powers Goldmember Soundtrack. It’s amazing in so many ways. 

Love coming across old favorites.

-Resemblance is uncanny innit?

 

Dj duo Cappel & Smitty have sssseeeeriously come across something here. The mashed up…. wait a second….. FRANK SINATRA and CHRISTOPHER WALLACE (Biggie for those of you who live under rocks). The mash-up tape entitled “Blue Eyes Meets Bed-Stuy” (clever right?), has been floating around for a few years now apparently, so maybe I actually have been living under a rock. But I’m out now. And I’m listening to Biggies Juicy flow over a copped up New York, New York beat, and I-Am-Speechless….

(zShare)

P.S. Fuck living under rocks. 



Daft Punk + Justice = Danger

Danger MySpace

If your into having audio/video induced epilepsy attacks on the regular….. Danger is for you. Check out the 11h30 track. Its interesting. Also, his artwork makes you feel like your in a demented LOST episode, which i find really frrrrriggin awesome.



This Weeks Playlist

Loose- Spank Rock & Benny Blanco : This guys like 2 Live Crew 2.0. If you have a dirty mind ( everyone has a dirty mind, quit foolin ureself), u’ll love this shit. I actually had to take a shower after the first time i listened to his Bangers & Cash EP, and rumor has it that if you see him live, you automatically come home with a venereal disease.

Lupe Fiasco- Superstar (acoustic version) : The title says it all. Lil loftier than the original, but watcha gun do.

Kings of Leon- Arizona : This is like driving, hungover (and sorry for something you cant remember doing), through the desert, at night, by yourself, in no particular direction. Dont worry…. u’ll see it.

Madonna ft. Justin Timberlake- 4 Minutes : Shhhhhhh….. I dont wanna talk about it. Timbo is a mudda fuggin GENIUS.

The Roots ft. Wale & Chrisette Michelle- Rising Up : I know this is about the 5th time i’ve posted about this, but this is.. THE jam. This track is sooo go-go, Wale is redonkulous, Thought…. effortless.

Camp Lo- Black Nostalgic/ Luchini : 2 timeless Camp Lo tracks. Reminds me of the 90’s…. when i was too young to be interested in good music… but hey, I’m just tryin to bring the good times back.

Gnarls Barkley- Charity Case : Hearing Cee-Lo Green over some french cafe music is a beautiful thing. The entire The Odd Couple album is quite the emotional roller coaster if I do say so myself.

I’m A Hustler Barry- Camron : FINALLY… the colaboration I’ve been waiting for… Camron and B. White (well, not B.W., but it still has the vibe. Only Cam (who I’m not too big on) could turn some Barry White baby-makin’-music into a typical stoopidity rap.

Use Me- Bill Withers : The oldest trick in the book. (more on this at a later juncture)

Stronger (Andrew Dawson Remix) : I feel like Yeezy himself would like this. Real space cadet shit.

…2 b cont’d…

Rub some funk on The Strokes, marinate well, cook high heat for 30 minutes, and…Presto. Check ’em out.

Rich Girls has quite possibly one of the funkiest basslines since Bill Withers was in the game.

I’ve been a Bun B fan since the first time i heard Ridin’ Dirty, but lately the man has been ALL OVER THE PLACE (in the best way). He’s staying positive after the death of the late great Pimp C (r.i.p.), and has been doing really really awesome and unusual colaborations with some really great artists (M.I.A., Wale, Dizzee Rascall, etc.), and I get excited every time I see his name on a track cause theyre all fantastic. He’s even doing a track with Kidz In the Hall on the upcoming DJ Green Lantern Obama Mixtape. Rediculous.

The man rubs southern funk on tracks like it was marinade.

Paper Planes (Remix)- M.I.A. ft. Bun B & Rich Boy

Back in the Go-Go- Wale ft. Bun B & Pusha T

-Where da G’s At?- Dizzee Rascal ft. Bun B

I’ve been up on Wale for a minute now, and I’ve gotta say, its great to see him gettin the looks he deserves. His big break came wen he spit hot fiah over Justice’s D.A.N.C.E., months later he was featured on the cover of Urb Magazine with the Parisian dance duo, and named one of Rolling Stones Artists to Watch in 2008. The Go-Go influenced rapper has been floodin the internet with tracks, but not filler, I’m talkin TRACKS. Not only was his 100 Miles and Running mixtape [link] huge on the internet, but Nike Boots [mp3] was also the iTunes Single of the Week, featured in a Nike commercial, and remixed by none other that Weezy F. Baby (please say the baby). With all of that, His upcoming Seinfeld inspired Mixtape About Nothing (which even includes a guest skit by the shows Julia Louis Dreyfus), and being featured on The Roots new single (officially) Rising Up [mp3], its no wonder that he finally got signed with Interscope records. That dosent mean that he’ll forget where he came from, he still seems to be doing work with Mark Ronson and his Allido Records camp. Wale…. bringin the spotlight to D.C.

p.s. take note of his shoe game, cause its nuckin futs.

Please, please, please check out all of Wale’s work, but especially these standout tracks, cause he MURDERS beats on these shits.

-Roof (DJ Ayres Mix) [mp3]
