pretty happy with how our interview with wiz came together. i battled idiotic camera men to get this together. whoever would have a tripod > human? we had to kick this guy out of the interview, literally. then the dude who thankfully took over, decided to get artsy and rotate the camera 90 degrees in the middle of wiz giving us a shoutout. that alone made what should have taken me 10 minutes to put together a lil shoutout video, 5 hours.

I dunno if our average reader will find this interesting, but me, being me n all, I find it really interesting. It’s also on topic, so I figured I’d post. A wide array of folks in the hip hop world talk about the internet and specifically social networking, the way it fits into todays promotional mix, and how it’s changed the game. It’s “the biggest gift to the industy… ever”.

Shouts to @ItsMotorMane… I spotted this over on BlogOrDiePGH, in the backend before he even posted it.

“..you have to give it to em[labels] on a silver platter these days..”

This is a completely outrageous viral video, mash up, dance remix, funny thing. Audio and Video produced by the dudes @ChiDuly, @djcflo, and @DJDonk. Assuming you’re familiar with each of these videos from YouTube.. this is hilarious. What’s more… Ashton Kutcher tweeted it earlier today to his 5.5 million followers!

gang that.

Some Portland dudes who go by the name of Moxie Black (and are cool as hell) had a track leak today. I was all over that shit. RT’s and “likes” and comments and all that jazz. And THEN, Complex posted it’s “5 o’clcock” music joint. Basically they find 5 cool tracks that we’re posted on blogs that day. I was lead there cuz of Moxie Black’s track, and enjoyed that aswell as Posner’s new single and another indy artist by the name of Gavin.

If you don’t have the album, I 200% recommend it. It’s great the whole way through.

A few minutes ago it came to my attention that there may be a lot of people in my network that don’t have this track, and considering it’s one of my favorite songs (and has been), I figured it deserved a post.

I like just about everything Nipsey does, and Iyaz has a pretty good track record as well for a new guy.

I wanna give MAJOR props to Chris Brown for his MJ tribute at the lame ass BET awards tonight. This dude was so into it he couldn’t finish. He really realized the weight of what he was doing, and it hit him. That’s cool. I immediately saw fools on twitter trashing him for being a fag and crying and whatnot. All those folks are pathetic humans and should go back to WorldStar where they belong. Get em CB.

Mike and I were just talking the other day about Maroon 5, and wondering where the hell they’ve been. Low and behold I wake up to find the single from their forth coming album Hands All Over, which is set for release in September. Apparently, this track “Misery” is the most Maroon 5 sounding track on the new album.

This is a cool track, cool video, Travie is dope, and Bruno Mars is the fuckin man. Deal with it!
