While I wise man once saith “you can’t knock the hustle,” anybody with basic cognitive fundamentals would ask, how in the hell are you supposed to absorb all this music? Within a week, we’ve received this one and that one from Bro. Hedgehog, and now in what appears to be an attempt for most creepy mixtape title of all time, Every Charles Hamilton Ex-Girlfriend’s Worst Nightmare.
Here you go! Read the rest of this entry »
B.o.B’s debut album The Adventures of B.o.B coming soon on Grand Hustle/Rebel Rock/Atlantic Records.
If there’s one thing I would change on the critically-acclaimed The Recession (aside from a little beat diversity,) it’s the tracklisting. As soon as you push play, this ear drum killa should be the first thing blaring from your speakers — not that sluggish “Intro.” Read the rest of this entry »

Detailed shots of the upcoming Penny hybrid by Nike, the Air 1/2 Cent Penny Hardaway. These are commendable, mixing the Penny 1′s and 2′s with the blue foamposite material, along with laces from the Penny 2′s. Set to release in March, if you’re the “two weeks before they came out” type, you can pay the price @ OSneakers.
Straight Rickey Retardo in my humble opinion.

From the 1979 album of the same name & the sample source for De La’s “Keeping The Faith.”
Newest visual from Lionel Ritchie Kanye West and Kid CuDi off the highly debated 808s & Heartbreak album (which pops up in the rotation every few weeks). I was just listening to this album Sunday night on the way from the bar to Waffle House and this song always manages to get on a repeat for about 3-4 spins, especially after a drink or two.

There’s a good portion of you that feel Hip-Hop doesn’t need a woman’s touch unless they’re tip drilling it. That’s quite alright. You’ll be explaining your Alpha male theology to Judge Judy sooner or later. But in the meantime, Mz. Diva’s poised to contribute her qi to the rap game in the form of the freEP titled Spandex, Rhymes & Soul which we be available in March, so listen up for the DivaSpeak with a couple of samples.

Ahhhh… breathe in that silty Michigan air wafting from slush-covered cement, finely dusted by salt, with a lilt tough enough to peel auto paint to the primer. Hello, Mittenssippi.
Now that I’m settling back into my stomping grounds, the primary concern is to get out of my parent’s Sophomore-year instated curfew of midnight and find my own place. As Pop and I begin the house hunt for a 1930s Craftsman-style bungalow fixer-upper in my price range, my thoughts gravitate back to the one piece of Southeast Michigan property I’d really like to buy and restore.
The Michigan Central Station train depot. A monolith of forgotten beauty, rotted out from within and near-offensively lined with a manicured lawn, like an ornate chamber pot set on a doily. Read the rest of this entry »
With a fresh seat on the wagon, Charles Barkley will be returning to broadcasting, two months after he took a leave of absence.
Charles Barkley will return from his leave of absence and be back on the air Thursday night during TNT’s NBA coverage. “From the beginning, Charles recognized that he used poor judgment. He took full responsibility and apologized for his actions,” Turner Sports president David Levy said in a statement Tuesday. Barkley will be back to offer his opinions of Thursday’s trade deadline, as well as TNT’s doubleheader coverage of San Antonio-Detroit and Boston-Utah.
Good luck Chuck! Glad to Read the rest of this entry »
Today’s Pop scene is filled with artist’s that come off the assembly line manicured & prepped for stardom. Their music is based on perfection in all aspects, yet even negative situations such as heartache, are void of any real emotion. From time to time the assembly line produces someone who doesn’t quite fit that mold & they’re usually thrown off to the scrap pile. Thankfully, Lily Allen made her way to the forefront with a brand of Pop deeply entrenched in life’s bitter realities. Looking for a change of direction on her second album, she’s not holding her tongue for anyone this go around. Allen sticks out like a sore thumb among her Pop counterparts, proudly waving her middle finger, letting everyone in earshot know that It’s Not Me, It’s You that has the problem.

While everybody in the Crew has their own personal favorites in the bottomless pool of up-and-coming talent, I always look forward to new material from NYC’s very own Outasight. Read the rest of this entry »
Much to my surprise, these things flew off the e-shelves yesterday. I hoped for a better than average amount of interest shown but it was even greater than expected.
I knew all day that yesterday was a federal holiday. Yet, that didn’t stop me from going to the PO to drop these joints in the mail (fast service!)…only to remember that the motherfucker was closed. So if you ordered before Monday afternoon, your order will be shipped today. If you haven’t ordered yet, what are you waiting for?
To cop, visit The Smoke Shop.
