Good Googly Moogly: the new Roots is here!
The Roots: about to make President Carter look like a genius or jackass?
New sh-t!!! The Roots "Don't Feel Right" - those words may be truer than The Roots intended. I'm not sure about this one. (mp3 via Spine)
Killin' 'em in Houston (apparently): Kelis feat. Slim Thug "Bossy (remix)"
And via the Lemon Red blog: new (?) Project Pat feat. Three 6 Mafia "Good Googly Moogly"
Paris Hilton featuring Jadakiss "Fightin' Over Me" - I have no words for this.
DJ Emz on "Its the Shoes"! (related: ESPN2’s "It’s The Shoes" marathons this Friday (5/19) 7pm-9pm (EST) and Sunday (5/21) 12:30pm-3pm.
Also gear-related: Cam'ron's Most Ridiculous Outfits (via Nah Right | related: more new actually pretty decent Cam titled "I.B.S." over at Sean's)
And even more YouTube ish. Prefix's YouTube finds of the day - the Bay: pre-Hyphy. (related: also check for Prefix's new "Prefix Events" listings and a chance to win a pair of tix for the May 22 Gnarls Barkely Webster Hall show here.)
Tom Cruise: take notes from Yung Joc. (thanks, Alan)
Mark your calendars early for French hip hop vets Saian Supa Crew live at SOB's June 13th and the D-Nice birthday party celebration & photo exhibition the next day.
Finally, if you can believe it I was at the Guns N Roses show at the Hammerstein last night. This is not a cool pose but I was never really into these dudes and only know their mega hits. I have to say though thatI was less than impressed. Lackluster, medicore hired guns replacing the original band line-up and a sound that was decidely not loud (what kind of metal concert does that??) plus an audience that was pretty tepid throughout the night. As my man Max who passed me the free ticket put it: "The whole thing felt more like a Vegas revue of a rock concert as opposed to the real thing. Someone else doing an EXACT copy of a Slash guitar solo is too weird." Glad I saw them once I guess but did I really see them? BTW: peace to the opening act Bullet for my Valentine.
