New Music: Erykah Badu - The Healer

Erykah Badu - The Healer (zShare)
I heard this last week on Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide radio show but never got a chance to rip it. Fortunately someone got around to it because this is a killer track. I gotta admit, even though I loved Oh Word’s Baduizm parody, I’ve been a Badu fan since day one. [...]

Colin Munroe - Flashing Lights

MySpace:
MP3: Colin Munroe - Flashing Lights
First, off, who is Colin Munroe? Google is failing me this time. (Lady Glock, can you inform a brotha?) Having that said, a pretty nice remix of Kanye’s “Flashing Lights” video. Like I said before, non-commissioned videos are taking over! (from Kanye West blog)
Update: More info from Colin’s people [...]

Video: Saul Williams - Sunday Bloody Sunday

Buy The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust!
Saul Williams dropped the first video off of his groundbreaking internet-only project The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust! You can get the album from Saul’s Website although it’s not free anymore (hmm….). It’s definitely worth getting though.

N.E.R.D. - Everyone’s Nose
Wait a minute? I thought that N.E.R.D. broke up last year? Breakup or no breakup, the group did find some time to drop this new track from their now forthcoming album N.3.R.D., due in Spring 2008. The percussions on this track are insane even if the subject matter doesn’t really make sense [...]

Prediciton for 2008 - The “Non Commissioned Video” Will Take Over

The new trend for 2008: consumers making their own videos of their favorite tracks and posting them on YouTube with little or no budget and no artist approval or intervention. (i.e., the “Non Commissioned Video”)
Probably the most recent “Non Commissioned Video” that most of y’all would think of is NYC-based video director Va$hite’s interpretation of [...]

Review: 4Hero - Play With The Changes

4Hero
Play With The Changes

Wow, apologies to all readers.
I’ve been holding onto this album since February of 2007 and never wrote down a review. I only started typing this review because I came across it on another site and remembered of how damn great it was. Still, considering that I was at the album release party [...]

Jack Davey vs. The Industry

Things aren’t going well with J*Davey and their deal with Warner Brothers records. Last week, Miss Jack Davey posted a manifesto on her personal blog:

this is intended for all of you lowly puppets who sit in your big offices in big buildings that will soon be out of business & thus, forced to hold vacant [...]
