New Music: Janelle Monáe feat. B.O.B. & Lupe Fiasco - Tightrope (Wondamix)
Gonna keep the Big Boi-related vibes from yeterday going with a few other tracks I missed while out of town...
I know I been talking up Janelle Monáe crazy recently but in the end I have to say her ArchAndroid album was kind of a disappointment after I called her the best new artists on the planet. There's some joints on it no doubt but overall its too long and kind of meanders with some real slow periods. I thought homegirl could have delivered a Miseducation-type of classic album but to be honest she kind of dropped the ball! I'll still go see her live if she ever makes it to the T.dot though 'cos she's still amazing live and this remix of her first single is pretty good too!

New music: Lupe Fiasco - Kick, Push ((Pretty) Girls & Lasers Remix)
Lupe Fiasco - Kick, Push ((Pretty) Girls & Lasers Remix) by prettygirlsandlasers
Obviously "Kick, Push" is not a new song but this electro remix of the track by (Pretty) Girls & Lasers is. Not mind-blowing but worth sharing and a check-out for those into this kind of thing. Jack & Levi from (Pretty) Girls & Lasers are also throwing a party this Wednesday (Feb. 3, see flyer above for details). Its FREE with RSVP and vodka drinks are $5 all night which, if you know anything about NY nightlife, ain't a bad deal!

Video: Kobe & Lebron - Dunkin On A Reindeer feat. KRS-One & Lupe Fiasco
I got a grip more stuff I wanna post but I think I'ma wrap it up for now with this season-appropriate nugget that I ignored when I saw it on other sites a few days back, but which I happened to catch when I was watching BET's 106 & Park for the first time in aeons the other day. I had to laugh - KRS-One: you're a fool for this one. And to think, hip hop almost ground to halt the first time you did something like this, partially out of shock that you had done a comerical and partially because of who you did it with! Shout to Lupe too....
Anyway, for those that celebrate, enjoy the Christmas break and thanks for riding with me for yet another year. The site continues to evolve and will keep on doing so as my life and interests change, but there's some things I have started work on putting into place that should make keep it fresh and a plce you'll wanna keep checking out. 2010, y'all: LET'S GET IT!!!!

The Cool has leaked....
And you know what, it's pretty f-cking good (I mean really good) and I'm not even that big a fan of Lupe's. If you've played the album all the way through you've probabably already checked this out:
The Lupe Fiasco Show - his new blog which he shouts out near the end of the album.
Not sure I wanna call it the album of the year yet like Rizoh though....

Spank Rock live at the mtvU Woodie Awards
To be honest, I would have preferred to link to the video of Lupe doing "Superstar" live but MTV's embed codes are so f-cked up that I couldn't get it to work right and link directly - it kept linking to a video of him backstage instead.
Check out the whole mtvU Woodie Awards show online at Woodies.mtvU.com though and watch for a 30 minute "Best of the 2007 mtvU Woodie Awards" on MTV TONIGHT at 10pm ET and again on MTV2 tomorrow at 12:30am ET.

HipHopGame TV interviews Lupe Fiasco
Friday, September 07, 2007
And they say Chi city....
New Lupe and Rhymefest tracks that both wear their Chicago club music influences pretty clearly on their sleeves:
Lupe Fiasco feat. Matthew Santos "Superstar (clean)" (YSI mp3 link) - a slowed-down Chicago deep house piano riff powers this really great track that reminds me of recent Mark Ronson productions. I could also see my dude Mickey Factz doing a remix on this too. The rhymes fall slightly short technically-wise but, considering I never bought into the hype on this dude, I have to concede that I am very impressed with this record. Who the f-ck is Matthew Santos though?? (mp3 and alt. zshare link, thanks YG | )
Rhymesfest "I Don't Know Where Yo Mouth Done Been (remix)" (zshare stream/download mp3 link) - straight (?) Chicago juke house vibes by DJ Slugo. I'm not mad at this either... at all.
