Originally we were going to throw together this rhetoric about what we're doing and what we hope to achieve, but honestly this isn't a high school year book.
We make songs.
Rap.
Sing.
Play instruments.
Make beats.
Draw. Design websites.(like this one)
Talk too much. Blog.
Don't sleep. Don't talk enough.
Sometimes we just make plain noise.
A lot of us don't like each other.
Some of us are lazy as hell.
Oh and one of us curses like a sailor.
Also, we're [mostly] from New York.
Just turned a new feature on for commenting on our site, now comments on our blog posts from social media sites like Twitter and Facebook will appear in the comments section of that post (in real time mind you).
Our new commenting system has been brought to you by JS-Kit.
EDIT (September 24): We dropped JS-Kits Echo in favor of Disqus, for it's simplicity.
I know I'm a little late to the party with the Slim PS3 and the price drop to $300, so to make up for it I put up a boring video of their US CEO and President talking about it.
What should be an easy task of just picking out three songs from Utada Hikaru, a very talented J-pop/R&B/Experiential artist, became such a hard task. So I came to a conclusion that no matter what songs I choose from her it's going to be good.
The first song, which might be one of her greatest songs ever, "Passions". This version of the song honestly gives me the chills! I swear she is one of the best singer alive.
Next is "Flavor of Life", which was number 2 in worldwide digital download yearly single chart with over 7.2 million downloads in 2007.
Finally"Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence - FYI", which I feel like was one of her stronger songs off of her 2009 Album "This is The One".
Brett Favre just pulled a Jay-Z and has un- retired from football by signing a deal with the Vikings. Favre will be playing his first game as a Viking on Friday night against the chiefs.
Grandmaster Flash was in Crotona Park recently for the parks Jam series (shout out to my fellow Bronx heads). As an audio engineer I respect both analog and digital, but man I wish I could scratch vinyl like that.
The company "Lotta Luv" just added a Cheetos lip balm to their roaster. Currently they have Twinkies, Gummy Bears, Snapple and Dr Pepper. (Just to name a few) I wouldn't be tryna kiss a girl with Cheetos lips, but if she got some Snapple or Mike & Ike I'm down.(Source: Gizmod0)
MTV's "Hottest MC in the Game" is back! Time for Hip Hop fans to talk, discuss and argue about who they think in the best MC is right now. A few people who are bound to be on the list are Jay-Z, Drake, Kayne and Lil Wayne. The question is where will they stand on the list? Find out on August 17th on MTV, or come back here for the results. So who do you think is hottest MC right now?
Rapper Fat Joe has teamed up with company Protege to create his line of sneakers called "The Blackout" .... these will be for sale later this year in local K-Mart and Sears stores. Price ~ $35
A picture went out earlier today of Jay-Z's Blueprint 3 cover and even when me and Rizzo Mercer spoke about it, we didn't know what it was.
"The first three they made on the wall was someone carving. If you look at [the number] 3, all they did was connect lines. The whole thing about this album, how I approached it, is that I wanted to make a new classic to start that all over again — to go back to making classic albums like the ones we grew up listening to."
