Look out: new music for Monday
Mobb Deep feat. 50 cent "Look Out" - I'm not gonna front, I LIKE this. (alternate link: Zshare download/stream, jacked from Spine)
Amerie "That's What You Are" - everyone's talking about "Take Control" but here's something grown 'n' sexy from DC's sweetest looking and sounding produced by Brooklyn's own The Buchanans (Jay-Z "What More Can I Say"). (alternate link: Zshare download/stream)
Speaking of Hov...
"Show Me What You Got", the video featuring Danica Patrick and Dale Earnhardt, Jr.... er what?! This is still ho hmm though. I mean, haven't I seen this before ("Money Ain't a Thang", "Me and My Girlfriend", "Big Pimpin'" etc. etc.)? Are people REALLY excited about Kingdom Come??
I'm more excited by this: muh'f-ckin legendary producer Jellybean Benitez has a MySpace page - wow!
Decent mixtape by DJ Illipse. Here's the artwork if you need/want it. (note: be aware this could take a minute to downlaod)
"Punjabi Thriller" - a Bollywood-ized version of the "Thriller" video.
"Make Sure You're Game is Tight" - the Swift Chancellor breaks down the Lupe Fiasco phenomenon.
Far Too Many Robots: a new backpack-ish blog - "Hip-Hop shouldn't be about womanizing and money. Real rap is poetry set to lip-smacking rhythms, with killer riffs and rhymes that'll make you go mmmm...." OK, but hasn't hip hop always been about "womanizing and money" from before even the "Rappers Delight" days??
Finally, I've been jacking a lot of links from all these sneaker/street wear sites recently so I HAD to link to this: Don’t Believe the Hypebeast - "If you/your brand get offended by anything you read here, then your all over print hoodie and quickstrike Dunks are probably too tight." Hilarious AND on-point! (via The In Crowd)
