Stone’s Throw just sent me the link for this promo video for Madlib’s Beat Konducta In India “Soundtrack” which releases on August 28th. I ususally don’t post promo videos, but whoever did this video gets mad props from me because they chopped up my favorite Bollywood Kollywood movies, Adhisaya Piravi. Most of y’all know the [...]

Wow people. Yes, I know I’m on the Common train. Call me a backpacker all you like, but there is no album coming out this year that will match the fire of Common’s Finding Forever. When I heard? Lily “I have a third nipple” Allen is [...]

Talib Kweli and Norah Jones – Soon A New Day
Talib Kweli and Norah Jones – Soon A New Day
Norah Jones, as beautiful as she is, puts my butt straight to sleep (a near accident on the Beltway confirms this). And you all know how much I can’t Talib Kwlei. So by that nature, I should hate this track. But wow, this track is [...]
New Dizzee Rascal – Wanna Be
http://www.myspace.com/dizzeerascal
Dizzee Rascal – Wanna Be (feat Lily Allen)
The Internets are graced latest track from Dizzie Rascal, my uncle’s new favorite (favourite) rapper. (Seriously!) “Wanna Be” is the latest UK single from the London rapper’s album Maths and English, and definitely more vintage Dizzee, compared with the first single “Sirens,” that we heard a couple of [...]

Review: Gorillaz – Plastic Beach
If it takes us a few listens to really get into the Gorillaz newest album. Can we blame ourselves?
We are forced fed music that is derivative of another. Pop music all sounds the same, with each artist essentially sounding like the one who came 3 months before them. When we hear something as creative and [...]
ALBUM REVIEW: Outputmessage – Autonomous
Washington, DC by way of Queens, NY electronic dance music producer Outputmessage is likely one of the more underrated EDM artists in the genre. The eight year veteran has received terrific acclaim both stateside and abroad for his musically dense but pop trending melodies awakening a sense of early 80s synth pop sounds. However, with [...]
Album Review: Sade – Soldier of Love
While not a masterpiece, in an era where the market has been deluged by a new female soul vanguard that angles increasingly towards pop, Sade remains regal, calm, collected and steadfast, and merely releases the standard bearer album to define the female expression in R & B for 2010.
Sade’s musical legacy lies in her ability [...]

Whereas the 2003 release 100th Window glistened with mechanical accuracy and disciplined minimal techno, Heligoland finds the Bristol duo returning to the dirtier, dubbed out sound of [...]
