Mark Ronson Speaks On How Sampling Transformed Music (Video)

Okay, grant me a late pass on this one, but this a dope TED Talk on sampling and the evolution of modern music. Presented by Mark Ronson.

Sampling isn’t about “hijacking nostalgia wholesale,” says Mark Ronson. It’s about inserting yourself into the narrative of a song while also pushing that story forward. Watch the DJ scramble 15 TED Talks into an audio-visual omelette, and trace the evolution of “La Di Da Di,” Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick’s 1984 hit that has been reimagined for every generation since.

That Time Roxanne Shante Ran Up On KRS-ONE Over ‘The Bridge Is Over’ Diss (Video)

Really? BDP wanted to be in the Juice Crew? Hmmm. Kinda got me *sideeye* over here hearing that…

But, Roxanne Shante has the mic. So we gotta respect it. ‘The Bridge Is Over’ …but the talk about the legendary beef, by the legend that got dissed… that wasn’t over… by a long shot! Got squashed though.

Roxanne Shante spoke openly with VladTV about the beef that started between The Juice Crew and Boogie Down Productions, which spawned the classic diss track, “The Bridge is Over.” Shante went on to explain how she even stepped to KRS One a few weeks after the track was released when she ran into him at the bank. Watch the interview footage above.

Whipsers – “Trash Appeal”

Whis!

Okay, not content to just wait at the spot for Styles P to be the plug… Whispers still out there on the hustle to get it up on his own, too. Good!

Whispers brings heavy bars attacking what the mass public considers appealing in today’s Hip-Hop. Killing it over Gangstarr’s “Mass Appeal” instrumental Whispers rendition “Trash Appeal” let you know exactly how the young Bronx rapper feels. Enjoy!

Freestyle banger! Plus dude did some dope work on that “Nickel Bag” we just posted though. Facts!)

SZA – “Broken Clocks” (Video)

Besides “sexy”… the word to describe this vid is “ohhhhhhh!” It all makes sense by the end; the very end. Now, you do get the benefit of seeing SZA singing sultrily and slinking around to the beat throughout the jawn; getting her ‘summer camp sensual’ on. But the TWIST ending… Watch.

Termanology – “Thot Pockets” feat. Artisin (Prod. By Large Professor)

Run the jingle in your head one time (“tHooooot Pooocketssss”), then press play and hear no more play-play. Large Pro sets the table with a nice clean beat for Term and Artisin to get downright greasy on!

An Extended First Look At ‘The Death Of Superman’ Animated Movie (Trailer)

I remember buying my brother TWO copies of the ‘Death Of Superman’ bound volume comic when it came out decades ago. Not because I was thinking “collectors’ item… ka-CHING!” Nah, it was because I knew we’d be wearing that thang out reading it; and it was prudent to keep one ‘in the clip’ as a backup.

Epic story. Supes went out the one way he was supposed to… not withering from waves from a green glowing space rock… but from defending the earth, his home (Metropolis) from Doomsday… and falling dead on the battlefield with HONOR. The Super Scout and The Monster BEAT THE F**K OUT OF EACH OTHER!! A fight to the death!

And now DC is doing a movie about it… again. Remembering that they kind of screwed the Krypto with the Doomsday angle in the bloated Batman Vs. Superman movie they did, I’m just saying, “DC, do NOT screw this up!!”
