Cookin Soul x Nas – “Soulmatic” (Mixtape)
Cookin Soul does justice to the music it touches. But the rework of this Nas holy grail…mind-blowing!
In 2014, 20 years after its release, “Illmatic” is still considered as arguably the best hip-hop album of all times. Our intention when creating “Soulmatic” was not to just remix “Illmatic” album as such. Actually “Soulmatic” only contains 4 remixes from the original album… Also we have added a number of musical skits including comments, feelings and experiences from those who created the original album.
The Cookin Soul way to get the listener closer to that particular state of mind that led to the creation of such a classic.

Eddy Kenzo – “Sitya Loss” (Video)
I fell in love with this song ever since I saw a youtube video of a few kids in Africa dancing too it. At the time I had no idea of who the artist was & had to take the time to track it down. Eventually I discovered the song was from Musuuza Edrisa who is a popular artist in East African widely known as “Eddy Kenzo”. The Ugandan born artist’s song ‘Sitya Loss’ is going viral in popularity thanks in large part to the original youtube video of the kids dancing in the clip. The video of the kids dancing has become so popular it’s even spawned various remixes like the Stanton Warrior’s video of ‘Loving Me Wrong’. Check out this brand new video from Eddy Kenzo as he joins the kids that made the song become more popular internationally. The remixes & original videos I’ve included after the jump. I’m glad I’ve finally found this song as it’s been promptly added to my itunes playlist & I’ve had it on repeat multiple times since then.

R&B: Usher – “Good Kisser” (Video)
Yep. Count on a video with extra Honey from Usher. Could have dubbed this an Eye Candy post. But there is the music. It’s good! Sure wish someone would toss bruh a shirt though (maybe one of the ladies…hmmm). “Good Kisser” is out on iTunes now.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (Official Trailer)
The new “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes” trailer isn’t monkeying around!
A growing nation of genetically evolved apes led by Caesar is threatened by a band of human survivors of the devastating virus unleashed a decade earlier. They reach a fragile peace, but it proves short-lived, as both sides are brought to the brink of a war that will determine who will emerge as Earth’s dominant species.

Education: Math RAPS Is Music To Parents’ Ears. Helps Kids With Their Arithmetic (Software)
Ah… Saturday. The kids, the tube, maybe a trip to the park and Mickey D’s on the way back home. Lots of wonderful nothing to do on the weekend. You love ’em, and that’s what you’re supposed to do over a weekend. Prime family time. But how are your babies doing in math though? Those prime numbers and such? Have they hit that ‘new math’ that you cannot even help them with yet? Composite numbers, factors… It can get intimidating. It’s okay, we got you. Explore the unfamiliar terrain with a familiar vehicle…Hip-Hop (that’s right)!
Seriously, there’s a rap app (featuring Dr. Pi) that tutors pupils in math! And before you ask, it’s FREE (bet that adds up, right?). Hit up the App store and get a copy today. Monday’s coming (and that math homework won’t do itself).

Mack Wilds – “Henny” (Ted Smooth Remix) featuring Troy Ave
Every now and then we get a song that makes folks want to remix the hell out of it. Looks like “Henny” is that song. Salute Mack Wilds. We already hit you with a remix of Mack Wilds’ “Henny†– featuring Mobb Deep, French Montana and Busta Rhymes. The hit has now inspired yet another artist’s jump into the mix, so to speak. Ted Smooth did this one – featuring Troy Ave – which is a banger, too.
(Nice incorporation of elements of that Jay Z x R Kelly throwback “Honey”. Troy was likely channeling that over the Ted Smooth selection. But if you want the real throwback enjoyment, check out the Bee Gees’ “Love You Inside Out”.)
Eye Candy: Carol Seleme – “Art School Confidential” [Video]
You’ve had to have noticed by now that, for our Eye Candy posts, there is a true appreciation of the fine female form. We run across PLENTY of nudie, twerk and booty drop vids online, but that will NOT do. Subtlety. Balance. Beauty first, then booty. Like this Carol Seleme visual loveliness here. Baby is definitely sexy… but there is a coy, teasing manner to this package. We actually do love the ladies over here. And this Carol…whew! Such the Honey buns in those cute short short shorts! Enjoy this sweet work of art right here.

Vinyl Destination | Ep. 9 ‘Kid Cudi Bath Time Music’ On Season 2 With The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff (Video)
“Nasty Nas Milkshake…” “…This milkshake is CRAZY!”
RESPECT to Vinyl Destination’s production crew for dropping in that “Room Test” by Dayne Jordan (fi-yah!) into this Episode 9 soundtrack right from the jump!
(Oh, and don’t think we missed Episode 8… it’s after the jump, mickey fickeys!)
DJ Jazzy Jeff, Skillz and the crew on to the next one… on to the next one… on their European tour. Manchester. Brussels. Zurich. Several destinations for this episode of Vinyl Destination. Fine and good… but this travel situation is kinda eff’d up (good shake though). Truth: Touring is not always first class travel and 5 star meals. Work life on the road. But a warm bath while listening to some Kid Cudi makes it all better, of course (wait, what?).
Fresh Off the Boat With Eddie Huang: Season 2 Bloopers And Outtakes (Video)
Like N.O.R.E. told you, “Mistakes is what makes things perfect.” – Eddie Huang
Well, would you look at that. Bonus footage… well, leftovers… from the freshly wrapped Season 2 of Fresh Off the Boat With Eddie Huang. Great Vice programming; and the boss (Shane Smith) even shows up in the clips above. If you’ve watched the episodes we’ve posted, you probably got a feel that Eddie is a balance of cool and kooky. Watch above and see how right you are.
Mike Tyson Breaks Down The Process Of Successfully Having Sex In Prison (Video)
Oooookay. Iron Mike Tyson goes in (uh oh, word choice) on Sirius XM Radio’s Opie and Anthony show about getting azz in prison. Wow.
Monks Breakdance Honoring The Memory Of Beastie Boys’ MCA (Video)
In advance of the 3rd annual MCA Day (May 3, 2014), four men dressed in Tibetan garb pay physical tribute to the late, great emcee Adam “MCA” Yauch of the Beastie Boys (while “Ch-Check It Out” plays in the background). MCA was a devout Tibetan Buddhist, and creator of the Free Tibet concert series. So, this feels more than right.
Technology: Building 10 Houses In One Day With A Giant 3D Printer (Video)
This could upend the housing industry on the whole… including the housing finance industry. Imagine the possibilities for affordable homes if single-story, one-room houses can be built for less than $5,000…in less than a day’s time! If only we had this pre-2008. Cheap housing. Little or no financing needed. Maybe no market meltdown, because there’d be waaay fewer crazy mortgages floated by irresponsible bankers (or buyers/sellers)… wow! Okay, okay. The 3D-printer tech used to accomplish this is incredibly cool, too.
Of course, this will still mean another manufacturing industry score for China over the U.S. (e.g. still leaving America a country of consumers instead of producers); but let’s table that rant for now. This is awesome tech!
