I-Octane & Chan Dizzy (Video) – ‘Til Kingdom Come’
February 22, 2012
Now the name of the track did turn some people off but the lyrics from I-Octane and Chan Dizzy are very wicked. We featured this song on the ‘Face Off Friday January 2012′ promo mix and with all the attention in the Dancehall community from these two artists, they wasted no time to shoot a video. The visuals of the storyline speak for themselves but listen closely to the 2nd Verse where the artists go back/forth, kinda ILL!

I-Wayne – Drug & Rum Vibe (Video)
February 22, 2012
For those who ‘STILL’ run jokes about how I-Wayne was pop down in most of the 2000′s, I must really point out how his latest album Life Teachings is REALLY DOPE. This is a good modern HD video for one of his bouncy songs off the album. With this track the message is still consistent with his overall image, and yeah, looks like he’s been eating good so no more jokes!

This is the Reggae Remix of Young Wild & Free, made originally by Wiz Khalifa, Snoop Dogg and Bruno Mars. The Bad Boys of Reggae, Inner Circle, I-Octane and Bizerk do a great job with the cover and even thou the video is simple, it still shows quality and the lighter side of all three artists.

President Barack Obama Sings ‘Sweet Home Chicago’ During Blues Night at The White House (Video)
February 22, 2012
You can see it in President Obama’s facial expression that when he gets the urge to sing in public he just wants to let loose but restrains himself. First doing it up with Al Green at the Apollo & now singing “Sweet Home Chicago” with Blues legends like B.B. King at the White House….This is hilarious!

Atlanta native & Carolina Panthers starting Quarterback Cam Newton & dope producer & instrumentalist AraabMuzik link up with Under Armour for this new add that just hit the web.

Yasiin Bey – N*ggas In Poorest (Video)
February 21, 2012
I like Mos Def Yasiin Bey’s version of Kanye & Jay’s “N*ggas In Paris” song quite possibly because one of my favorite artists not only displays his superior skills but he’s really saying something meaningful. Check out this new video for the mixtape track from the artist formerly known as Mos Def created by Yasiin Bey himself, Set Free and Andre Cole for Fellowship Mission. Dopeness!

Ski Beatz feat. C Plus – “Heaven Is” (Video)
February 21, 2012
This is the 4th video single from kung fu beat sensei Ski Beatz off his 24 Hour Karate School Presents:Twilight. This is a jazzy joint with newcomer C Plus letting you know what “Heaven Is” to him over melodic horns and smooth bass lines. Ski Beatz shows why he has been one of the most consistent (and one of the most slept on) producers in hip hop over the last 15 years. Make sure you cop this joint and keep it in heavy rotation. New producers take note, get in the dojo, and in the words of Dragonfly Jones and “practice on ya art “!!!

Classic Clips: Happy Bornday Nina Simone! (February 21,1933)
February 21, 2012
This is one of my many favorites from the one of the greatest jazz musician/songwriters, who was the embodiment of “Black is Beautiful”, Nina Simone (February 21,1933-April 21,2003). Although she wasnt traditional jazz, nor did she have the tradional smooth jazz/lounge voice like Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington,or Ella Fitzgerald but check the linear notes of any of your favorite hip hop albums and you will see her joints credited for samples everywhere. Heads knew muscially Nina Simone would “Put a Spell on You”.

Marley (Film Trailer)
February 21, 2012
Directed by Kevin MacDonald (The Last King of Scotland, State of Play), it is a documentary on the life, music, and legacy of legendary Jamaican singer-songwriter and musician, Bob Marley. The film was premiered at the 2012 Berlin Film Festival and set to hit SXSW Festival next month March 8th – 13th 2012 in Austin, Texas.
It is the first feature backed by the Marley family as well as the legend’s longtime music label head Chris Blackwell which should make for the most insightful look at his life yet as it follows “the musician, revolutionary and legend from his earliest days to his rise to international superstardom” using rare footage, archival photos and incredible performances and interviews with his family, friends and bandmates. Blackwell executive produces alongside Marley’s son, Ziggy.” – BOBMARLEYARCHIVE

MTV Names Their Hottest Rappers In The Game For 2012 (Video)
February 20, 2012
I labeled this as “MTV’s Hottest Emcees Rappers In The Game” because not everyone on this list is an “emcee”….some are just rappers or singers. Either way it is what it is…Rap lists these days don’t hold much weight, but if you’re a real hip hop head like myself then you’ll chuckle out loud at some of things said by people on this panel. Ah well…What’d you expect from MTV & the current state of radio & rap music these days…Overall it’s just a reflection of how bad “mainstream” rap music is. There’s plenty of great music out there, but most of it ISN’T on the radio unfortunately. One thing I was surprised about was seeing the homie @BosNaud was on this panel. I haven’t looked at all the vids as of yet so I hope he represented well. Check out links to the discussion on the other candidates on “MTV’s 2012 Hottest Rappers On The Radio Payola” “MTV’s 2012 Hottest Rappers In The Game” list below….

Comedy: SNL’s Jay-Z, Beyonce, & ‘Baby Blu Ivy’ (Video)
February 19, 2012
Last night on Saturday Night Live the crew poked a little fun at Jay-Z, Beyonce, & their newborn daughter Blu Ivy. With all the media hype surrounding the birth of the hip hop couple’s kid this skit follows what it would be like if Nicki Minaj, Bon Iver (played by Justin Timberlake), Prince, Taylor Swift, & other guests stop by with well wishes. On a side note, Justin Timberlake needs to do more comedy movies or television. Dude has such a great comedic sense & is a pretty good actor…
