Producers/Rappers Endorse "Beaterator"


I'm actually surprised this is actually somewhat advanced. Soon there will be kids that don't even use FL Studio, but PSP instead. Press play.

Common x Friends Benefit Concert In LA


This is video of the Common's "Common Ground" Benefit concert at the Palladium in LA. Common, Nas, Ludacris, De La Soul, and the Roots were the scheduled acts. Kanye West, Talib, Mos Def, Queen Latifah, and Heavy D came out as surprise guests. I was at this concert y'all, shit was dope. Having Kanye, Mos, Talib, Common, and Queen Latifah on stage at the same time was classic. All of them are dope performers. Highlight of my weekend for sure. Awh.

Mr. Hudson - White Lies Video


One of my favorite joints from Mr. Hudson. I hope this album is still coming out in October.

Wayne's Birthday


He's SUPPOSEDLY 27. Wasn't he 27 2 years ago? These dudes are the epitome of absurd/over-the-top. Watch at your own risk.

LeBron Promotes Movie/Himself In Paris


This video is actually very dope. Tony Parker, Mickael Pietrus, and Boris Diaw make an appearance. I just noticed LeBron writes with his left hand and shoots right. Weird.

Mr.Hudson Interview

"HS: G.O.O.D. Music has a laundry list of heavy hitters on their roster. Line up aside; what sold you on signing with the label?

H: Um, I don’t think I had much choice. Did I? In honesty, I was a little bit lost at that point. I had made the first album. Didn’t know what I was going to do and it just made a lot of sense. Going through G.O.O.D. Music was really just a formality because Kanye was like (in so many words) “look, I’m going to look out for you, I’m going to produce your record. You make the music and I’ll make you famous.” It was simple. Even when we were talking about production and who to bring in for different pieces of the album he said – you just sing really well and I’ll make some beats. That was the plan. End of conversation. Just starting another cookie here… "

BBC Shirts Inspired By BP3

"Billionaire Boys Club offers a look into their full Blueprint 3 collaborative release. With a total of 3 different graphics (okay let’s be honest, 1 graphic with 3 different text options) BBC offers a significant amount of real estate to Jay-Z’s latest album. Each shirt features a moonman print on the front, the BBC logo on the back, three red bars on the sleeve and a different slogan: either “ABC”, “SO AMBITIOUS” or “I’M ON A MISSION” overtop the moonman. Two of the three shirts also carry over the text to the back. Available September 23, 2009 at BBC/Ice Cream."

Dope shirts.

This dude serious? Looks like he's mad about Kobe getting that documentary by Spike. How do they have so much footage of this dude in high school though?

They are using the inferior system. Awh.

Because Ron Artest is bored...


A third of the way through this, you know after his Celine Dion cover, this video actually gets slightly interesting. I'm not sure I'd spend all my free time on Twitter and YouYube especially during a week filled with 4-a-days, but much respect to Ron and keeping it real. At 5:30 he even gives a shout out to Kevin Garnett. Can't ask for too much more. For you Laker fans, just hope that he stays true to his word about cutting back from the internet once the season starts... Good luck with that.

Ryan Leslie - You're Not My Girl Video


Here it is, the first single off of Transitions. Of course I'm looking forward to this. This guy is a throwback musician. Not too many of them these days.

IPhone x T-Pain


God this is sad. No more words.

Foreign Exchange - House of Cards


You need this Foreign Exchange album. Its Phonte from Little Brother doing his side job along with producer Nicolay from overseas. It has a laid-back/dare-I-say neo-soul feel to. I've always been a fan and support this song. It would be nice if we could get another Little Brother album with 9th again, but perhaps that is no longer possible.

Wale Attention Deficit Album Cover

Really have high expectations for this. But on another note @Wale is one of the best people to follow on Twitter.

Mos Def In New Orleans


Apparently there is another part that hasn't been released yet. I'm sure Kimble would appreciate this if he hasn't seen it yet. Must watch. Credit Xclusivezone.net.

Ibn Jasper Is Not Scared


I just post this to show that some people aren't afraid of creases...

Timbaland Beaterator


This guy is beyond arrogant. I wonder if he made some of the Blueprint 3 beats using this game on his PSP...No disrespect of course, just saying.

Dirty Money - Love Come Down

New joint from Diddy's "group" Dirty Money. Don't know if this is gonna be on Last Train To Paris or the Dirty Money album but I respect him for taking chances musically. I'm really looking forward to this project even though this song right here is merely lukewarm. The album itself is supposed to be a fusion of a bunch of different genres such as hip hop, soul, r & b, house, and electronica. Interesting. Press Play.
