Some truthful S#!%

I hate when people say that they hate Kanye because he's a "douchebag." Truth is he's just real, and he speaks his mind regardless of the consequences. To explain, let me share this article with you on why Kanye was right about Taylor Swift.

West Coast Classic

Here's just one of my favorite N.W.A. songs, 100 Miles and Runnin'. Enjoy...(Leon)

Very Important Person

The best of new and old collide on this song by Consequence featuring Diggy and Mac Miller. As 2010 comes to a close this is a great song to cap the year off with

Machine Drum

Check out this dopeness!!! I love MF DOOM and so should you.......so..............Enjoy...................(Christopher Colas).

Machine Drum - Jelly Ear feat. DOOM (Mash-Up by Arby Wan Kenobi) by bakedfresh

Never Good Enough

I'm a fan of Major Lazer and Collie Buddz. Of course Dubstep is a part of my daily repertoire, so hearing this made me feel great!!! I also heard this track as the music for one of Taz Arnold's TI$A sneaker line commercials. All in all, it's a pretty sick song. Enjoy........(Christopher Colas).

Check her out!

I know the guys fell in love with ADEEN, and who would have known one of my closest friends modeled for his underwear line (A** Man). Her name is Christina Stitchel, and in all honesty she has the greatest butt I've ever seen but besides her being amazing, the young fellow who runs the underwear line is only but 19 or 20 and is starting his own company.

He specializes in panties, hats, pins, and other accessories. Check out this commercial for his panty line.

The Show Goes On

Lupe Fiasco Released this track a little over a month ago, but here's the music video for "The Show Goes On". Also be prepared for the drop of his new album "Lasers". Enjoy................(Christopher Colas).

Retrosuperfuture

Lately Iv'e been listening to Rick Ross's last album, "Teflon Don" as well as Wiz Khalifa's "The Chronic 2010" mixtape. They did this song, and it's pretty dope...Is it just me or is Ross grunting like Kanye?? I smell a biter!!!...Just kidding..Enjoy...............(Christopher Colas).

Kick Game Serious

Unfortunately this has nothing to do with fly kicks. Just watch this amazing goal in the Jupiler Soccer League in Belgium. Swag at its finest. Enjoy...(Leon)

The Opening Act

This Mixtape is dope. I recieved "Opening Act" from a friend in my email. Naj Murph really displays his expertise of wordplay on his mixtape. The range of different beats really provides for sick lyrical contrast. Naj Murph also sports some pretty sick attire. From Playcloths, to G-Shocks, and Stussy!!!, he really does it all. He actually dropped this today and it's his birthday! Enjoying this is inevitable.....Spread the word about this dude.....Enjoy..............(Christopher Colas). click here for download---------> " Opening Act ".

Interesting stuff

Its sometimes interesting to know where rappers sometimes get inspiration from. Click the link below. (look for it, it blends in with the background)--------> click here

Past, Present(s), and Future

Its safe to say that 2010 belonged to no one other than Diggy Simmons. From being on a reality tv show to blogging, to his own sneaker brand (chivalrous culture), and lets not forget his rapping. Today Diggy dropped his 3rd mixtape or as I would like to call an early Christmas gift. His mixtape is entitled Past, Present(s), and Future. With his skill and dedication he's sure to be a part of hip hop's history just like his dad.

Adrian

I get fly as IBN JASPER

One of the most quoted names in hip hop and also one of them most unknown as well, Ibn Jasper is an on tour barber of many hip hop artist and a very close friend of Kanye west. there is no question that this guy is FRESH!!!!! but dont take my word for it see for yourself.
Adrian

Difficult

I heard this on my roomate's tumblr page. It's a pretty cool song and the video is even cooler. It would be sick for someone to rp over this instrumental. Preferably BIG SEAN!!!!.. Anyway...Enjoy...............(Christopher Colas).

Here Comes the BOOOOMMM!!!!

Let's get back to some dubstep!!! Lately Iv'e neglected the genre, but it has made it's return. I heard this on one of my daily websites. It's entitled "Here Comes the Boom" by Zeds Dead. Enjoy.............(Christopher Colas).

Dev

I don't care what anyone says, Dev can make any song sound awesome. I'm sure you've heard "Like a G6" like a million times, she's the girl singing the chorus, which is originally from her song "Booty Bounce". Even though this song came out in January, I still wanted to share this with you guys. Hope you enjoy it.......Jose.



Also check out the song Sunrise, by Dev & the Cataracs.

The Online Gamer

Do you know someone that loves to beat other people in all video games? I do, & quite frankly, those people can get annoying. Watch as this guy completley puts his competitiveness to use...even in an endless game of monopoly. Hope you like the video...Jose.



If you like this guy as much as I do, there are like 4 or 5 more videos of him being a competitive jerk in a bunch of other places. Just search The Online Gamer.

Joyce Cr3w

(Joyce Hall)

Being a resident of Joyce Hall at Saint Michael's College, I felt it was necessary to post this. Here's a video of some sick footage recorded by "Joyce Cr3w". Enjoy...(Leon)

D-Why and Yellow

This dude is fresh!!!! Gucci Duffle, Cardigans, Chambray button-ups, and of course, Ray-Bans. I've been listening to this song as well as this instrumental..HARD!!!! Anyway D-Why KILLS!!! this.

Enjoy............(Christopher Colas).

Black and Gangstahs!!!!

I'm sure you've heard "Black and Yellow" by Wiz Khalifa. He recently had the G-mix released (Gangstas remix). It features Snoop, Juicy J, and T-Pain. Enjoy...........(Christopher Colas).

"Rockie"

This dude is a beast and relatively underground. Anyway check out this track called "Living". Enjoy...............(Christopher Colas).

The Lonely Island ft. Akon, Jessica Alba, Blake Lively, John McEnroe

Beatboxing

I have no idea how these two guys are making this crazy beat. All I know is that it's pretty sick, and I probably couldn't do it if I tried. Hope you enjoy the video, and don't be afraid to comment on anything, we love feedback!! -Jose

Christmas with Dipset and G.O.O.D.

The previous post of the "Christmas in Harlem" song has just been remixed. Jim Jones, Cam'ron, Vado, CyHi(new verse), Pusha T, Big Sean and even Musiq Soulchild are in the new one. Enjoy..........(Christopher Colas).

DOPE, DOPE, DOPE!

Cultural differences, race issues, racism & just the all around experience of a day in Brooklyn.. Oh! It also has what a TRUE sneaker head is (carrying toothbrush's ready to clean any mark on your kicks haha) Check it out..

Big Daddy

Big Daddy Kane was one of the Golden Age's best MC's. His blend of great instrumentals and lyrical expertise was phenomenal. Here's just one of my personal favorites by him, "Young, Gifted and Black". Enjoy...(Leon)

Claw Money.....for dudes!!!!

I always loved the designs for Claw Money. Originally Claw Money was women's brand, but I guess to get more hype she made clothes for dudes!!!!(hypocritical sexist she was). Here are two pieces from Claw Money that I liked from the guys line. Enjoy................(Christopher Colas).

Just Two Peeps

A night to chill with friends is a night to reminisce on....I mean.....If the moments are good enough. WE "The Rippers" (Leon, Jose', Ricky, ME) sometimes split up. These photos are just memories were presenting to you. Ricky's wearing a Vintage Ralph Lauren wool crewneck sweater, Quicksilver corduroys, Toms(brand) shoes,and a custom SMC snapback. Accessories include a old school Casio Watch. I'm wearing a Land's End button up(I love this shirt), Ralph Lauren relaxed blue chinos, UGG Byron driving mocs and a Suns vintage snapback. Accessories include Bracelets from Urban Outfitters, beads from Good Wood NYC and a paper pocket square I made with a magazine request slip.

Enjoy.........(Christopher Colas).

Oh....so that's who you are?

My man!!! talking about himself, but more of how his art influences him. We all should influence and we all should have an influence.

Enjoy...........(Christopher Colas).

Cat Daddy

I thought this was kinda cool. I didn't know jerkin' swag was still in? but at least one of them has a T(o)$A snapback!!! Taz Arnold is the man check out his blog here.

Enjoy...........(Christopher Colas).

Fast Five

I love these movies, thought it be cool to share numero cinco!

Enjoy..........(Christopher Colas).

Dirty Money

Ugh! Diddy was never the best rapper in my book, but this is just terrible! I wait 2 minutes to hear him rap just to end up dealing with the most uninspired verses since Vanilla Ice (ouch). Nice car though, thats what I want for christmas, an Aston Martin DBS (I can dream, cant I?) Alas, maybe when I'm rich. Watch the video below and risk going deaf.



Totally unrelated. This is just so funny to me! watch the drummer boy.


P.S. Diddy, stick to producing.

Black Christmas

Here is a rough version of a new single by Kanye and CyHi Da Prynce called "Christmas in Harlem." Its not very often that rapper's do christmas songs......also below is Trey Songz and Flo Rida's christmas verse , as well as Janelle Monae's from this year. By the way, who cast the idiot who prances around on Janelle Monae's song?

"You Be Killin Em'"

Fab in his latest....Did he steal Amber from Ye?????

Enjoy......(Christopher Colas).

Album of the Year!

Despite the media's constant Kanye bashing, Time magazine has named My Dark Twisted Fantasy the number one album of 2010, once again showing that you cant deny genius. Sadly, that same issue had Sarah Palin on the front cover, I guess you also can't ignore stupidity...Go figure.

Varsity

Its not until recently that I have grown to like the varsity jacket. even today, im still very picky about them. They have to be made of certain materials, they cant have logo's and they cant be a crazy color..................dont hate, thats just how I roll ;). Well I just decided to take a pic of my outfit before I went out to a Christmas Party (a little early right?.......yeah thats what I said) I paired a black MG Varsity Jacket, a Structure Cardigan, an "Artists Collection" T-shirt, Levis 511 grey skinny's, Suede Nike Dunks, an H&M scarf, and a headband (dont hate, I couldn't find my hat) Like the look?

DJ Hero 2

The best thing in music games since the first guitar hero, DJ Hero is a rush. Bring this thing to a party, and it will be the center of attention, and the party's soundtrack. With a huge and diverse setlist DJ Hero was nothing short of amazing. And DJ hero 2 is even better! DJ Hero is a christmas list must! Listen.

Mr. Hudson

Sometimes we forget about G.O.O.D music's black sheep (irony! :P) Mr. Hudson. The talented R&B/Pop artist hails from the UK. One part Sting and one part Kevin Rudoph, he often holds the vocals on many G.O.O.D music artist's tracks. Currently, He has his own album out, Straight no Chaser. The album is a mix of fast paced vocals with dance and techno beats, I think the closest way to describe the songs would to be to liken Mr. Hudson to a british Mike Posner. Listen for yourself.

10000

We've reached the 10,000th hit on our blog!!!!! Thank-you to all our readers!

Take off

Curren$y deserves more credit than people give him. He's a genius. Listening to a Curren$y song will transport you back to the 90's, when rappers used laidback beats and smooth flows. His lyrics show off his personality, an old school, Chevy loving, southern rapper. This is perfect music to listen to while you're just chillin.

Here's a song off the album.

The best of the 2000's day 5

Album #6
The Blueprint 3

Even Jay-Z knows that you can't use the same act forever. The Blueprint 3 bought a fresh new sound, and a Jay-Z that was different yet the same. Jay-Z also used the album to showcase the new talents, Drake, Kid Cudi, and J Cole. Jay-Z delivered on every song, whether he integrated rock, techno, and dance.....or stuck to what he knows. This album is one for the recordbooks.

Movie
Spider-Man Trilogy

If I am correct, these were Spider-Man's first live action movies. The three movies truly brought the comic book to life. The city, the villains, the emotion....It was all there. Very few superhero movies get everything right, and this one did. Its sad to hear that there wont be a fourth movie.

Game
Kingdom Hearts Series

When you hear of a game that mixes Japanese Anime with Disney Characters, you expect garbage. But thats not always the case. The games tell a mature coming of age tale, one that asks the question of where morality lies. And guess what, its actually fun! No I hit you, you hit me gameplay, its a you against the world melee.

Mr. Cupcake

Mr.Johnny Cupcake founded 1982 all i can say about this is that its a great example of just doing what you want to do & not needing so many people behind you me as an aspiring artist i put pride in all my music & you should do the same with anything you guys (or gals) do, MeastroKnows can take it from here

A Weekend at St. Mikes

If I told you I attend a small Catholic liberal arts college in Colchester, Vermont , the first thing that probably comes to mind is "boring -_-", right? Wrong. The fun here is definitely from home in New York. Here's just some photos of a weekend at Saint Michael's. Enjoy ...(Leon)
The End.....
