Southerngold – Santigold vs Southern Hip-Hop (mixed by Terry Urban) Even though these mixtape mashups are a dime a dozen these days, I’m still a sucker for them, especially when they are blended as well as Terry Urban’s Southerngold Mixtape.

Best of 2008: Top 50 Albums of 2008
I’m an old soul. I’ve been reading reports about how the album format is dead, and that more and more people are choosing to buy a couple of singles from iTunes than cop a full album from your local mom and pop record store. Times have changed, and I’m sure that writing is on the [...]

N.A.S.A. ft. Kanye West, Santogold & Lykke Li – Gifted [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Lykke Li is a goddess. I haven’t posted about her (or my love for her) that much on this blog because I thought she would be a little bit to hipster for the hip-hop heads, but today I’m [...]
Video: Jay-Z Feat Santogold – Brooklyn Go Hard
I know that “the streets” might not feel this one, but as someone who is a Senior IT professional and a self-confessed computer nerd, it warms my heart to see that the video for the hot new single “Brooklyn Go Hard,” is actually an open source word cloud done by Evan Roth. And yes, even [...]

SINGLE REVIEW: “HUFF + PUFF” by Just A Band
This joint right here is real sexy-like. Your body will automatically go into autopilot: your head will start boppin’, and you’ll break into a soulful yet swingin’ two-step (think of the Robert Palmer video girls…on speed). The very beginning of the song reminds me of Supernature-era Goldfrapp with heavy synths keys, some la-la-las, and a [...]
