Sia "Breathe Me"

i came across this song and i was blown away by it. as a person who loves Sade, i mean absolutely adores her, this was an easy pill to swallow. i am a lover of music and it is hard to not like this song if you are too. i just heard it. and i love it.  i think she's Australian. it was hard to get any info on her online, except fopr where to buy and that sucks, because when people discover something of value, they want to know what it is....

Bboy Exclusive: Akai MPC Renaissance

i am a long time MPC user. the sound of hip hop, that raw gritty, underground hip hop style, as defined by DJ Premiere was pioneered on an MPC. most of the records that we love from the classic era of hip hop (both of them) have this machine as the sound in it's center. it is the sound of hip hop. the sound of pop music (lets be real... the bulk of popular rap music is now pop(ular) music)is the sound of the computer. at its core, the MPC is a...

Stopping You From Stealing Is Not Censorship

make NO mistake. im no supporter of SOPA or PIPA or pipers or whatever you wanna call any of that shit. i am always in support of the people's right to continue to express themselves on a platform that will always give leverage to the small business man/woman to compete. the access to information, globally, in real time, is really a power for the people, because this will keep us from being subject to mass  distortions of the truth. we can...

Free At Last?

i really wanted to wait until his birthday was clearly passed to speak on this. because i know as a symbol he means a lot to the people who may not know. or at the very least who don't get a chance to study much. his intention was a great one. his sacrifice was one worthy of the holiday that is set aside to commemorate it. what my contention remains to be has to do with my latest findings. for those of you who can, get a Black's Law Dictionary,...

T.I.- 'F_ck Da City Up'

- i might be a lil late with this, but this joint is solid. i mean, on the real, T.I. ain't never been no slouch wit the pen. its just that in recent years, he's been focusin on those charts more than anything. understood, i mean he did have a lot of money to pay back. but if u take a listen to his first album, "I'm Serious", the baw was seriously tryin to prove he was. as it should be. but i really took a listen to this and its right. and the lyrics...

Red Wrong?

anyone who knows me knows i am a history buff. i am always reminding those around me the cause of a lot of things because people dont ask, and therefore dont know. like people wonder why there is so much discord in the Middle East. history will tell you that the Christians and the Muslims have been at each other since the Crusades. its still the same institution since the Middle Ages. the Capitol Building in Washington DC is an ancient ROMAN building....

The Funny Thing Is...

... is that this one long commercial. but i loved it. it's like an episode of a tv show more so than an ad campaign. i think the folks at Samsung have done a great job at making an advertising initiative an actual piece of pop culture. i think this is the new model for doing business. socially. im not really sure if the hard sell really works anymore. too many people are educated to their choices these days. this whole series was funny...

Enjoy The Sunrise

i dug this video when i saw it. it made me think... we all love to party. every last one of us. as participants in this hip hop life, showing up at the jam, at least once, is mandatory. whether its to hear a live dj, or to see a live performance, being there is the best way to feel how the energy of others, combined with the pulse of the rhythm, corresponds to the pulse of your own beating heart. whether you're at the hot underground hip hop...

Down With The King

first off, if some of you may not happen to know who this is in the video, then i'd like to meet you, and welcome you to this planet. because in the world of music, there has been no major movement since the introduction of hip hop to the world. and since then, there is no group that has served as a contact point for hip hop and the rest of the planet  other than or better than, Run DMC. Run DMC is hip hop's Rolling Stones. and the only reason...
