"Rob the jewelry store and tell them make me a grill...."
YBZ: podcasting in they white tees....
Nelly feat. Paul Wall, Ali & Gipp "Grillz" - I can't front, I LOVE this record. Mark my words, this song is gonna do for iced-out grills, what "Air Force Ones" did for Uptowns. Expect white kids in suburbs everywhere to start rockin' fronts in the next few months.
Related: the "Instant Rapper" kit. (spotted via my comments section)
Gwen Stefani feat. Ludacris "Luxurious (Zone 4 Remix)" (via Am I High?)
Lil' Wayne "Fireman (Cadence Weapon En Fuego Remix)" - I like the version in the video playing on BET currently but, true to its name, this is pretty En Fuego too. Check for Rollie (aka Cadence Weapon)'s CD collection of remixes circulating right now, a copy of which he was kind enough to throw my way a couple weeks back. (spotted via S. dot Fennessey)
"Less Is More" - a look at the stripped-down minimalist beats and "homemade" sound effects of "intimate club music" and beyond taking over hip hop.
Speaking of which, check Sean Paul and J-Bo of the YoungBloodZ talking about their new album Ev'rybody Know Me (which includes another Collipark intimate club banger "It's Good" feat. T-Boz of TLC) on the debut edition of The Low End Theory, the new Jive Records podcast. (non-itunes users, click here to download an mp3 of the podcast related: SOHH on the YoungBloodZ)
The 100 greatest Miami bass songs.
Beyonce falling the fcck down - what's with this group and keeping on their feet on stage? She handles this better than old girl did when she went down on "106 & Park" last year though. (originally spotted via the mighty Crunk & Disorderly)
The million dollar cell phone.
Young Jeezy adidas sneaker?
And to end, also for sneaker/adidas heads, an article about a new book on the origins of the family-based rivalry between the Adidas and Puma companies.
I'ma try and make an effort to do some news posts soon cos I still wanna talk about Iraq, Plamegate, France, the elections, the Jordan suicide bombings and a whole lotta other ish that's been going down recently.
