Moving In

All of our writers are in the process of moving back into their respective schools.  Please be patient, we’ll be back and running in a day or so.

Kanye’s Power Poster

Looks pretty epic…can’t wait for the video.

Scala and Kolacny Brothers – Creep (Radiohead cover)

I’ve had numerous people ask me about what I think about the upcoming film on the origins of Facebook and its creator, Mark Zuckerberg (shown above), The Social Network. Other than an intriguing story, cast, and trailer, I’ve been asked even more about the song in the trailer. If you are unfamiliar, it is a [...]

Raphael Saadiq- It’s a Shame

Raphael Saadiq dropped a song entitled It’s a Shame, a cover of a popular Motown single by The Spinners, on Levi’s Pioneer Sessions. If you aren’t familiar with Levi’s Pioneer Sessions it’s a musical project in which new artists and groups cover classics. All are available for download on the website, including a cover of [...]

J. Cole – Higher

J. Cole is overall the most versatile and most talented up and coming rapper.  Great track, although he’s not really saying anything on, still fun and good to bump.  I’ve heard a few arguments for him going to have the album of the year (whenever it may drop,) every verse he’s gotten on he kills, [...]

Big Boi vs Jive Records

Big Boi’s solo album, Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, is finally slated for a July 7th release under Def Jam Records. After leaving Jive Records due to their inability to drop the album, Big Boi decided to move the release to Def Jam. While this move allowed him to release the [...]

Christian Rich- The Decadence

Christian Rich, the production duo which is comprised of twin brothers, has dropped their mixtape entitled The Decadence. Christian Rich has garnered a lot of attention recently after gaining the attention of Pharrell Williams. This heavily anticipated tape features help from artists such as Pharrell, Pusha T, DJ Benzi, Clinton Sparks, Shanell, and many more. [...]

Theophilus London – I Want You (Directed by Va$htie)

Theophilus London is dope, and I respect highly his love for Syracuse basketball, but this video is pretty lame sauce.  Some PYT (can’t believe I actually typed that) on a bed stretching while London walks through the halls to eventually film her stretching and posing is not exactly groundbreaking material, especially from London who is [...]

Marky- Journey to Markyland

I was put on to Markey by a friend and in my estimation he’s an MC everyone should keep an eye on. Marky hails from the DMV and he’s got a real laid back feel which can easily translate to big success in the game. He dropped his second free EP entitled Journey to Markyland, USA: [...]

N*E*R*D Hot and Fun

After touring for what seemed to be an endless amount of time without a new album, N*E*R*D has officially released a snippet from their first single off of their upcoming album entitled Nothing with a slated release for June 15th. The song has everything you’d expect from the band, but is only available streaming from [...]
