Pimp My Turntables: DJ Jazzy Jeff (Episode One) [Video]
Chances are if you’ve watched MTV at any point in time you’ve seen the “Pimp My Ride” show hosted by rapper/actor Xzibit or as participants on the show would often refer to him as….”Mr. X To The Z”. The ‘Pimp My Ride’ show would find willing participants with the most busted ass vehicles & then have a team of creative auto mechanics trick it out. Professional DJ & former Masters Of The Mix show finalist DJ Yonny hosts this new internet show that just debuted called “Pimp My Turntables” where they creatively trick out the equipment for professional DJs & turntable enthusiasts. In the very first episode they catch up with international party DJ & Philly legend DJ Jazzy Jeff as they trick out his turntables in such a way that just leaves him speechless.

Kanye West – “Lost In The World” (Video)
“Filmmaker Ruth Hogben collaborates with award-winning musician Kanye West to create a film for his single “Lost in the World”. The song, which features Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, is taken from West’s fifth album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Hogben’s piece breaks the mould of popular rap aesthetics while still celebrating the extraordinary talent that has made West a modern icon.”
The Amazing Spider-Man (Trailer)
I enjoyed the previous Spider Man films starring Tobey Maguire that hit the big screen a few years back so when I initially heard that filmmakers were going to redo the series in theaters so soon I sort of groaned aloud thinking it’s probably gonna be wack. I’m having a change of heart watching these previews for “The Amazing Spider-Man” because it feels like the creators are simply revisiting the formula that was used to reboot DC Comic’s Batman films. The initial Batman films were very “comicbook-like” in nature while the most recent ones like “Batman Begins” & “The Dark Knight” have been darker & more adult in it’s approach. I believe that’s the plan for The Amazing Spider-Man when it hits theaters this summer….

A$AP Rocky – “Goldie” (Video)
Harlem rap artist A$AP Rocky drops this visually interesting new video for his new single “Goldie” off of his upcoming “LongLiveA$AP” album. I dug the song when it first dropped, but this video shot in Paris with its shimmering Gold theme makes me dig it even more. I believe its the dope combination of “fly yet grimy” that appeals to me most about the clip.

Diamond D – “Deflate Cha” (Video)
Diamond D is back to flexin’ his producer on the mic skills again with a new video for “Deflate Cha” that he shot down here in Atlanta. The new joint captures the early feel of tracks from Diamond’s classic album “Stunts, Blunts, & Hip Hop” but of course flipped for 2012. The part-time Atlanta resident also brought along a few respected Atlanta emcees who make cameos in the new video like the homie “BIGREC”. Diamond’s also working with several key artists in Atlanta like “The 5IVE” who rep the south, but are extremely lyrical & can also body a stage. Yep….Diamond’s back on the boards & on the mic again in true D.I.T.C. fashion, but he’s assembling a new army as well to “deflate” the wack…..
