Out for the Weekend

So since I'm the only one runnin' TCS right now since Miss Hipstah is out, (we'll talk about that next week), and Jerome is in Omaha, I'm gonna take a few days off to focus on some other programming projects. I got some new articles and a Podcast lined up for next week and I [...]

Banned in DC, Part Deux

Part 2 of Banned in DC was a crazy as part 1. Again, much thanks to the bands, Miss Hipstah, Alpha, Bala, and everyone who came out last Sunday.

Q-Tip and Andre 3000 - “That’s Sexy”

Q-Tip feat Andre 3000 - “That’s Sexy”
from ???
Q-tip has been droppin’ some tracks on White Label for a while now. When in the hell is he gonna drop his album? What gives with the Tribe reunion? I finally got my hands on Kamaal the Abstract and was unimpressed. Still, I’m probably more interested in a [...]

Fly Lounge?

Yo, can someone skool me on this new spot in DC called the Fly Lounge. I saw the writeup in Vibe, but haven’theard any “buzz” around DC. All I know is that its the work of DJ Dirty Hands and it looks like the old spot where Red used to be. When is this spot [...]

Interview: Saul Williams

Saul Williams is the voice of rebellion. He’s been the star of the stage, the movie Slam, and the creator of two critically acclaimed albums.

Gnarls Barkley

Get this video and more at MySpace.com
Video is from the GB Top of the Pop’s performance. Sorta brokeback (Navy uniforms?), but interesting nonetheless. (via Prefix)
I’m with Funkdigi. I thought that the leaked tracks on the Promotional EP were better than the actual whole album. However, there is one exception: The ending track, “Last Time,” is [...]

Random Ish, 4/25/06

John Legend is hittin' Wafah Bin Laden. It’s a good look for John, but damn, I wouldn’tassociate with any chick who has the last name Bin Laden.
Gaelle is quitting the music industry. Poor girl. Of course, she goes off on MySpace (is that the new venue for this type of ish) and lays a [...]

Banned in DC, Part 1

Props to everyone who came out last Tuesday for Banned in DC. Without ya’ll this wouldn’teven be possible. I tried (keyword tried) to take some pics for the website and for Flickr, but of course my camera sucks. I could only manage about 4 shots out of the almost 20 that I took. So sad. [...]

By The Time I Get To……Omaha?

As of 7:30pm tonight I’ll be on a flight to Omaha, Nebraska. My job is sending me out there for a week and I'm not to mad about it. Does anybody know what (if anything) really goes down out there? I know a spot that sells Nikes, but I need to [...]
