Deal breaker

There are few times when I dont have the words to explain how I feel....This is one of them, I just got an IM from a long distance homie with the following video. Just give the whole song a listen, and be amazed. The best feeling in the world, for me, is introducing people to new music they love. The 2nd best, is finding an upcoming artist I love. and here we go

The Black Keys - Blakroc

Blakroc, an amazing album behind the band The Black Keys...

Music is Life

Let me first say, if you havent read the Merchant of Venice by Will.I.am Shakespeare you should prolly get on it. I know what you are thinking and no I didnt read it... haha BUT YOU SHOULD. No really though, its a great piece, but also has one of my fav quotes...

The Market of HATE - Today's Music Dillema

Since the revolution of music and artists breaking the mold for what everyone is used to, there has aways been reasons to question the validity of new sounds and genres.

cont. top 5 albums that got me through high school

woo hoo!.... you came back! scroll all the way down for a pic of 16 year old banana.

10 Albums that got me through High School

I only used albums released WHILE I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL 00-04. Bulletpoints are my fav songs from the albums. How do these compare to yours?




5 Albums - That Got Me Through College

1.) Outkast - Aquemini

I could listen to this album top to bottom over and over and never get tired of it, and thats what I have done for the last 9 years or so...


2.) Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek - Reflection Eternal

Gotta love the rapper/producer chemistry. This is a classially underrated album, and great mood music. The fact that they both are still makign music that is as fresh and true to this release says a lot about them as artists.


3.) Ryuichi Sakamoto - BTTB

This was an amazing find for me, helped me study and fall asleep. I love piano with depth, and Ryuichi Sakamoto takes it to the next level. Not a fan of all of his releases, but this album is as good as it gets.


4.) K-OS - Joyful Rebellion

I don't know how K-OS isn't bigger in the U.S. I think he is one of the most creative and talented MUSICIAN (not just lyricist/producer) of recent years.

5.) The Beatles - Revolver
Elanor Rigby. Enough Said.

Traks for the Day


Travis McCoy (gym class heroes) feat Bruno Mars- billionaire


The Bangz feat Lil Wayne- First Girl on the Moon


Kate Earl- Golden Street

Dont even front


I remember this was the new joint of the day on 106th and Park.

She's not just anybody

:(

He's Serious (hope you get the reference)

New music from two of ATL's finest. Not the best from T.I.... but he may be a little rusty, you know, considering that whole jail thing. Another club song for Usher... nothing spectacular. :/

T.I- I'm back


Usher feat Will.i.am- OMG

The First From Outer Space

ATLiens ~ Outkast from ATLien on Vimeo.


Outkast - arguably one of the greatest rap duos of all time has been setting trends from the beginning. Their music, style, creativity, and ground breaking formats have been copied but never duplicated.

Their music videos, clothing, and choice of beats have always been different - but they did it, and still do it, without trying. So why is everyone an alien all of a sudden? I guess like NaS said, no idea is original (Even if you are really trying hard for it to be).

The Original JT...

Dont act like you weren't holding hands at the skating rink to this one...Throwback
