Imagine Revolution....
Leaky weekend. First Jay, now Snoop:
Snoop Doog feat. Dr. Dre & D'Angelo "Imagine (album mix)" | alternate link: Zshare stream/dowload
Unquestionably blazing hot new Dre production (except to those few haters who argue that Dre's stuff is all starting to sound the same). Obviously, dude's been busy (except for on Game's album that is, LOL).
Bottom line though: some of these A-list cats coming out for the Christmas season (Jay, Game, Nas, Snoop, UGK, Clipse etc.) are gonna catch L's at retail. How can they not? There's too many of them all coming out back to back or on the same release dates, some with virtually no set up. Nas don't even have a video out yet (but more on him later and more Snoop leaks at XXL | also: official website | MySpace | Buy)
And also Clipse!!! "Double Down (feat. Vybz Kartel)" | "Where You Bee" (Right click and Save please, via Thirty Three Jones - solid site, go check it out for yourself. | more: website | MySpace | Buy)
I didn't catch the whole Nas listening session on Thursday but Prefix runs down the main points and puts me up on the fact that I missed an appearance at the beginning by Nas and Hov themselves! (Note to self: get off C.P.T.!).
But off the music and getting gear-orientated for a minute:
Action Figure - "Revolutionary Gear."
Sample lines and info from their manifesto: "Half of our profits will be donated to a driving force behind the local Stop The War Coalition," "We want the revolution to look good" and "It's great when Madonna gets thousands of fans yelling 'F-ck Bush'. But if she is the avant-garde of celebrity radicals, the radical chic is in a sorry state." C'mon, why not rep this instead of whatever wack collab limited edition tee or hoody is hot this week.
Burden Clothing (peace to my man, Omar...)
The Year Of jeans (peace also to my man, Slim Pickens...)
Shmack clothing
But to end: the DJ Hi-Tek MPC-3000 sampling drum machine jewelry piece: cool or not?
