N.A.S.A: Gifted (Feat. Kanye and Santogold)
I got this song over winter break but I haven't seen it spread around or on the Internet at all...I just found the video which is pretty cool.
Lupe Fiasco: Shining Down (Featuring Matthew Santos) (LIVE Snippet)
This is a real shitty, recorded snippet from Lupe's performance at Boston College the other night, but this is still a link to get excited about...the beat and chorus sound sick, and the last time Lupe and Santos teamed up they had a little hit named "Superstar." Check this out and I'll post more of the song as soon as it comes out.
Spike Jonez to Direct "See You In My Nightmares" Video for Kanye
"Spike Jonze, who has directed some of my favorite television commercials, shows and music videos EVER (including possibly my favorite music video of all time - The Pharcyde's "Drop" ) is teaming up with Kanye West to direct the video for "See You In My Nightmares" from 808s & Heartbreaks. You may remember that Kanye and Spike collaborated on the first installment of "Flashing Lights" last Winter." (FakeShoreDrive)
N.E.R.D: Soldier (feat. Santogold and Lil' Wayne) (LIVE on Jimmy Fallon)
N.E.R.D just started performing this song, they haven't released it as a single yet but apparently that version has a Weezy verse
The Best of Kid Cudi
Pretty good collection of Cudi's best tracks. You all know "Day N Nite" from Entourage and now everywhere else, but check out "Embrace the Martian" and the rest of these.
T.I. Gets One Year, One Day in Prison
You've gotta wonder why one of the most successful and recognizable rappers in the world needs to buy a bunch of illegal guns...protection is one thing, but machine guns with silencers seems a little excessive (why do you need the silencers to protect yourself???). Plus, when you can take baths in $100 bills, maybe you could just buy some extra bodyguards?
Check Out: Chiddy Bang
"We’re really not sure why it’s taken us a couple of months to blog about these guys, but check ‘em out NOW. Chiddy Bang is a four-piece electro/hip-hop group from Phili, and they’re also apparently only freshman in college! The jams we’ve found out and about from these guys are all ill, and as a new group, they already seem to have perfected the synthesis of hip-hop and electronica, a feat many MC’s are dying to boast. Check out some tracks from the group below: Fresh Like Us samples French electro-pop goddess Yelle; On Our Way has a slick rock edge; andBecause samples Radiohead’s Reckoner. These guys are pretty under the radar, but there’s definitely potential for them to blow up big." (Kickinthepeanuts.com)
Go see "I Love You, Man"
The trailers make it look terrible but we saw an advance screening of this last month and it was absolutely hilarious...it has an 80% on Rotten Tomatoes (84% from Top Critics), Paul Rudd and Jason Segel are incredible, Rashida Jones is gorgeous, and Andy Samberg is gay...what else could you want.
