Mazzi x S.O.U.L. Purpose – “WYD?”
July 9, 2016
Hitting hard with the marching band style drumming from the start. And that line, “How come knowledge is so readily available but hidden?” That is should require a bit more than passive thought of you. Slow down when you play it back, but first time through just feel the flow.
“WYD” is a single from the Mazzi & S.O.U.L. Purpose “The Building” album!

A tragic loss of life and light way too soon, Showtime is debuting the telling his story tonight (9pm EST) in the documentary film “As I Am: The Life and Times of DJ AM.” A story to watch as soon as it comes out; told to reveal a deeper truth, with respect, and oftentimes in AM’s own voice.
Wow.
Stro Elliot – “A 01 The Summer Love Song”
July 9, 2016
House Shoes shares are the dopest. Gotta love when a DJ does the real duty of hipping the masses to the Mos’ Def (once your hear Yasiin in there, you’ll get that) tracks that might otherwise slip by us. Beautiful booming banger of a “Summer Love Song” with the promise of more on the way from Stro Elliot.
In the midst of all the hate in the world,
I felt like sharing some LOVE.
The first leak from Stro Elliot’s self-titled debut LP on Street Corner Music, coming this fall.
Big shouts to the homie DJ LowKey from Denver for looking out.

July 8, 2016
It’s not about the flag. Change the people.
– Scarface
Think: Do you think Swizz Beatz and Scarface had this “Sad News” jawn already recorded, or did they hit the studio right fast in light of a recent tragedy? Don’t answer that aloud.
Think: Do you think it really matters with all that’s ging on? Don’t answer that aloud either.
Just listen. Think. Feel.
No big I’s. No little U’s. We all together.

Blood Father (Trailer)
July 8, 2016
This could be Mel Gibson’s ticket back into the Hollywood elite. Watching this trailer…whew! In case you forgot what Gibson can do in the frame of an action movie, watch the trailer for “Blood Father” (due out late Summer). In this movie, biological did bother… a few years late… but damn if he doesn’t have his daughter’s back AND front!

Imperium (Trailer)
July 8, 2016
You see Daniel Radcliffe. You see Toni Collette. But this is no fantasy epic. No comedy. And yes, it’s a movie; but in America today, it’s not all fiction. Great trailer. Good bet for a great film experience.
Nate Foster (Daniel Radcliffe), a young, idealistic FBI agent, goes undercover to take down a radical right-wing terrorist group. The bright up-and-coming analyst must confront the challenge of sticking to a new identity while maintaining his real principles as he navigates the dangerous underworld of white supremacy. Inspired by real events, IMPERIUM stars Daniel Radcliffe, Toni Collette, Tracy Letts, with Nestor Carbonell, Burn Gorman and Sam Trammell and will be released by Lionsgate Premiere in theaters and On Demand August 19.

Comedy Central’s Larry Wilmore Speaks Out On The Killing Of Alton Sterling (Video)
July 8, 2016
Thank God for f#cking cell phones…Because we would never even hear about incidents like this otherwise. In fact, part of what makes people in the Black community so enraged about this is for years, we never had evidence for these things.
– Larry Wilmore
The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore is supposed to be about comedic commentary… but a lot of what the host has had to cover is just plain old not funny. And it’s getting OLD. Larry speaks the feelings of us all in a tone like, ‘The vest just fell off…REALLY??’
Here’s the thing: People KNOW we have folks that NEED to be POLICED. But by and large, that should not include the UNJUSTIFIED KILLING we are see TOO OFTEN now. That’s MURDER, with a license to kill issued by the government. Before, folks could have dismissed all these as ‘anomalies’ or ‘things being blown out of proportion’… not anymore though. No more. People have the technology, even if cops on the scene ‘lose’ theirs all of a sudden at a crucial moment. We SEE you doing wrong, Mr. Officer. Cameras are ALWAYS on!
Watch.

Soon all urban dictionaries will be updated to show a pic of Joe Budden under the term ‘No Chill.’ Count on it. Barely a week is STILL too long to wait for a response from Drizzy on “Making A Murderer” (Part 1)… Sooooo, here’s another shot from the clip (or to the jaw, in keeping with the artwork). Listen to “Wake.”
I guess this is what I gotta do to make y’all rap.
