And now a word from our sponsors....
Lots of mp3 action couretsy of the good folks at Capitol, Def Jam and J records:
"Get Back" - first single from the new Ludacris album Red Light District dropping Dec. 7 featuring production by Green Lantern, Lil Jon, Organized Noize, Timbaland, Doug E Fresh (!) and guest shots from DJ Quik, DMX, Nas, Nate Dogg and others:
- Windows Media High | Windows Media Low | Real Media HighNot sure it's on the level of "Stand Up" and previous singles but, OK.
More Dirty South action couretsy of Yung Wun's "Walk It Talk It":
- Windows Media: low | med | highAnd over to the midwest, Chingy's “Balla Baby” video from his new album Powerballin’ (in stores 11/16):
- Quicktime: low | med | high
- Real Video: low | med | high
- Quicktime: low | med | highBut, for the the more R&B inclined, peep Swizz Beat's wifey Mashonda.
- Windows: low | med | high
- Real: low | med | high
Audio:
- Windows: low | high | Real: low | high
Like the single? Then peep the Powerballin' Album Sampler and play the Powerballin’ Pinball game.
And while we're in that realm, don't sleep: the Ciara Goodies album is retarded. Seriously, it's really, really good, like major-record-label-big-budgets-spent-to-good-effect good. The last time I said this was when Usher's album dropped. Think Aaliyah meets Lil Jon where the reality is as good as the theory on paper.
Scion has done a pretty good job of marketing its cars hip hop(-ish) youth demo although how effective it's been is questionable given that, from my 30-something view, the Xa and Xb's looked terrible. I can't front though, for <$17,000, the new scion tc seems like a really good deal and looks pretty nice too.

Speaking of which: here's proof that a well-programmed and DJ'd mixtape trumps a corny “compilation pause tape” with exclusives, fake freestyles and wannabe-DJ Clue yelling throughout every time. Highly recommended!
