_090427: Biff Bang Pow |
|
Uhh, it feels like after this night’s throw down it’s a fucking miracle that I’m alive. Me and my best friend got in this HUGE drama with some nasty hillbillies on our way home from one of the best nights of fun and dance in a while. Some nasty RACIST hillbillies. |

_090424: An Amazin' Magic Man |
|
KanYe's Amazin' shot in Hawaii, directed by Hype Williams. I'm getting a whole lot of Kellz vibes fromt this video, u know, great man vs. even greater landscape. Also wait for the ending and the BET interview and the ego gets unleashed: |

The madam Jacki-O is back yet again and Hood Girl is like the best homage paid to Sweet Dreams I've ever heard.
If u still haven't bought "Lil Red Riding Hood" get ur ass out of the wagon, if u got Spotify, u can listen to the whole album over here. |

_090422: Dust Off and Wipe Clean |
|
My first instinct when someone wipes the big layer of dust off their old TOTO-collection is basically: run the fast as I can. This remix by Dallas producer LehtMoJoe of Major Lazer’s dust free Hold the Line is no exception other than the fact that everything but the TOTO-samples makes me wanna dance. Yeah, I’m torn with this one, don’t what to think of it really, perhaps u like it? |

_090420: Rye Rye's Blaqout |
|
Let’s kick off this new week with staying in the previous one and the last post for a bit as Rye Rye has a brand new little mixtape out to support her forthcoming album, which will be out soon on Mi.I.A.’s label NEET. |

_090418: KanYeezy's Holy Water |
|
This brand new track from KanYe where he actually raps is taken from the "Tapemasters Inc. - This Is Hip Hop 4"–mixtape, hence the length and the annoying drops... Don’t know what I think about it really, I’m not that hot on KanYe when he raps, I actually think I prefer the autotune and singing instead. |

_090418: BONKERS (Official Video) |
|
The wait is over! The official video for Dizzee Rascal's and Armand Van Helden's collaboration is now live and it's actually quite... bonkers. Def a hit of summer of 2009. It's also going to the history books since the video is shot with a special 360 degree camera, that uses 6 lenses and it’s the first time that this kind of camera has been used in a music video:
Trouble watching? Well, probably caused by that ur not in the UK, hate that shit, try using a proxy or wait until it’s up on YouTube/any other site without silly restrictions, I’ll post it as soon as it is. |

_090416: Official Tribal Skank |
|
It took some loooong time for Tribal Skank to grow on me. I love the beat, it’s huge, but the track over all; a bit too slow for my taste, it’s not as big as Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes for example. feels like something u dance to 02:45 pm when feet are h e a v y from dancing in high heels a whole night, but well, I might change opinion in some weeks, who knows. LOVE the video thou:
Fr3e are currently performing Tribal Skank up and down the UK alongside artists such as Ms. Dynamite, N-Dubz, Tinchy Stryder and the K.I.G. Family and the single will be released on the 1st June on WE MAKE ENT (also look out for the next single and follow on video She Likes Me coming soon). |

_090413: Play the Shoe-Game |
|
The first thing I check regarding guys is... yeah the shoes, old readers already knew that. Shoes, cheek bones and arms. Fugly shoes are such a turn off, but DC’s are not the crime against fashion as they’re portrayed here by GLC, KiD CuDi, Semtex, Lil Church aka Ibn Jasper, DJ Geno, Happy, Really Doe and Slick Shoe;
My take on the shoe game is, as long as u don’t sport Vans or Chuck Taylors ur okay in my book. Can’t cope with Timberland’s either. Nike AM 90/AM1 (in a nyce color way that is, I’m not speaking beige/brown, yuck, at work we call that color palette: FAMILY LAWYER, haha) or crispy whites = gold stars. Once I linked with a guy who cleaned his kicks with a toothbrush every day and bleached his laces with chlorine once a week. That’s a bit too extreme, even for a neat freak like myself, also, a new set of laces are pretty cheap. |

_090410: Too Many Man |
|
I got MAD love for this track, just pure love love love. But several issues regarding the video, first the one of utter importance, where’s the GIRLS?! Sometimes I really do wonder who does the idea pitching for videos like this. Picturing the discussion going something like: Yeah, we have to do a video. Underground club scene, greeeen laser? Some models getting their sexy light on, u know rough environment vs. sexy dance, dichotomyyyy! [...] SHALL WE THROW IN SOME STRANGE HALLOWEEN MAKEUP? (all in unison) YEAH!!! [...] And how about Shorty’s cheap PIMPCUP?! Koool! Ready set action!:
Yeah. the end result just looks like a school project from some preteen boy with bad skin, a poor attempt to mock around with hiphop-videos. Just the makeup alone, why oh why? U know the picture that’s floating around, the one when someone has dolled up JME in Joker-makeup and the tagline "Why So Serious?", _that’s_ HELLA funny and would have been a funny look for the video, not looking like Hank von Helvete on a bad day (would have been almost as funny as this tee, but just almost). |

_090403: M.I.A. Is Still HOT |
|
Wonder when the safest card in the music industry are gonna flip or at least decrease? Yeah I’m speaking about the one thing that always turns out good, sampling old M.I.A.-tunes. Not in the nearest future is my wild guess and here’s the latest one, from Tinie Tempah and his "Sexy Beast Vol. 1" (dl whole mixtape here via Tinie's blog).
The sample in this track called I’m Hot is from Bucky Done Gun and well, it works doesn’t it? Btw, speaking of work, Tinie isn’t so tiny anymore, from what u can see on his MySpace-pics he has done some heavy lifting, suits him well.
