Theophilus London – I Stand Alone
July 12, 2011
This Trini born & Brooklyn raised cat is doing some great things with his music that is hip hop yet alternative at the same time. To say his music is hip hop is very limiting. Theophilus London has impressed me with a number of his joints he’s dropped over the last year or two proving that if you ‘stand alone’ on your own style you’ll definitely stand out. This latest joint he’s released will appear on his upcoming album ‘Timez Are Weird These Days’ dropping next Tuesday July 19th. It’s somewhat safe to say he’s pretty much in his own lane right now. It’s a creative one too….

Akon Blows $50,000 In Dollar Bills at a Strip Club (Video) [NSFW]
July 11, 2011
Must be nice to trick off that type of money without even thinking about it. Don’t think I’d trick off $50,000 grand in a strip club even if I had millions like that, but hey (shrugs shoulders)…it’s not my money. Meanwhile someone is starving somewhere & someone else is getting extorted.

Lloyd – Naked Part II (Video)
July 11, 2011
Lloyd drops another video from my favorite song from his album ‘King Of Hearts’. This song goes well if your driving through the streets with the top down on the whip or for a late night session with a special woman. Speaking of special ladies, this particular video features model Kelsey at a photoshoot with famed Atlanta photographer Derek Blanks behind the lense in the clip.

This one is a little different but still dope. More alternative Flying Lotus type stuff. I’m digging it.

Here is my favorite joint from the project. More from the project after the jump…

How Artists Can Sell 1 Million Albums But STILL Owe $500,000 (Video)
July 11, 2011
Spotted several people tweeting this link on twitter but I never got around to posting this up on the site. Very informative information for aspiring artists trying to learn the business. In 2011 my advice to aspiring artists is to stay as independent as possible before even thinking of doing any business with a record company. You’ll be able to make the music you want & potentially make way more money than you’d think.
