Rock The Bells
Tour: Rock The Bells Goes Less Controversial
I take it by now most of y’all have seen the lineup for Rock The Bells that dropped this week. “Real” Hip-Hop cats should be relieved that this year’s lineup dosen’t include any rock (Rage Against the Machine), or hipster (Santigold) acts at all. Personally, I think it’s too safe, however, I’m glad to see [...]
MF Doom and Brand Desctruction
MF Doom – Potholderz
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
I’ve been reading Clyde’s ProHipHop blog for quite a while now, and he’s written several posts about “brand destruction” in the music industry. The term is defined just like you think it is, and it is all too common in today’s hyper exposed music marketplace. [...]
Rock The Bells Recap
Mos Def, originally uploaded by joshsisk.
Unfortunately I didn’t get to go to Rock the Bells for its DC appearance last Sunday but I heard it was off the chain. My bad, but life got in the way. However, DJ Eurok has some amazing coverage of the event including Tribe’s tour rider and a conversation with [...]

Rock The Bells Tour Lineup, Controversy, Tour Dates
The lineup for the annual Rock The Bells tour was announce this week, and this year, like last year, its already generating controversy. Last year, it was the inclusion of Rage Against The Machine as a headliner (cause they ain’t hip-hop?), and now this year, it’s the inclusion of hipster-hop acts like The Cool Kids, [...]

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 [...]
ALBUM REVIEW:Massive Attack “Heligoland”
Massive Attack – Paradise Circus
[Audio clip: view full post to listen]
Tomorrow marks the official release date (U.S. and Canada) for Heligoland, the 5th proper studio album by Massive Attack.
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 [...]
