Ten Artists Whom I Will Learn More About in 2010 Basically, these are the artists, bands and musicians who I have been too intimidated by their work to even begin to contemplate listening to them. The artists who have discographies so thick, you ...

2009-12-26T16:13:43Z

(Take Two, this is the second time I've tried to type this, lost all of this hella long blog post in a freak accident, and thus, I'll try to restate my love for these following songs.) These are the songs that moved me, grooved me, made me sing a...

Holiday Hiatus

2009-12-22T22:17:23Z

I was originally going to post Phonte of Little Brother's "HOJ Christmas Jam" and I will, if you ask nicely. But that song couldn't outdo this Nike commercial, rapped by Lupe Fiasco and KRS-1. Me and my dad find it hilarious, so here it is. I'm ...

A Song for a Holiday Party?

2009-12-19T15:55:20Z

I put a question mark there because this song has nothing to do with any holiday ever made (but a Dia do Uniao Black would be cool, though). This song, however, is just funky enough to surpass a possible language barrier and brighten up any party...

This Is An Ode, Meant To Decorate Your Skies

2009-12-15T17:06:06Z

There's something about music that surpasses every barrier placed before it (that is, except soundproof doors). With language especially, music will convey a feeling that can be understood without words you may understand (which explains why lots ...

Them Husslas Keep On Talkin'...

2009-12-12T20:56:03Z

They wonder where Beyonce, Lil' Wayne, Gucci, Missy Eliot, M.I.A., Kelis and Ludacris got their beats from. In in an issue of VIBE or something, I remember reading about a producer named Bangladesh who was in the high of the release of Kelis's son...

Why So Funky?

2009-12-11T15:56:40Z

On my way home with my father yesterday, I noticed the music he had playing through our radio/mp3/anythingbutacdplayer. It was the Average White Band, a band that I had found music through various paths. Through A Tribe Called Quest Through the I...

Mini-Update

2009-12-08T03:21:34Z

I've gotta split real quick and study and sleep (Great combo, by the way) but I just wanted to say that this album IS HELLA DOPE. Sure it came out a little more than eons ago (if you count the non-release leaking and this one as well) but yo, this...

Una Manana Linda

2009-12-06T18:35:48Z

(Hey, if I knew how to get those accents in there, I woulda done it by now!) While watching Mancora the other day, I noticed something smooth occurring in the background... I'm a big fan of BGM (Japan reference if you've ever been) and I pay close...

It's Snowing!

2009-12-05T18:09:26Z

Hace nieve, ya'll! This has restored my hopes of a white Christmas, as I was just complaining to a fellow about how it's been rare for my area to have white Christmases, it's more like a grey slush Christmas. In honor of Nature's gift for today, I...
