There was a time when if you placed the names “Keith Murray” and “Canibus” together on a song, fans would salivate. I know this isn’t that time but I’m not even sure how this duo, calling themselves The Under Gods, would fair in the best of times. Read the rest of this entry »
This is the reason I don’t play video games. You get too caught up.
In this hidden video, an apparently possessed teenager goes ballistic after his mom deletes his sacred World Of Warcraft account. Lucky for us, his brother placed a camera in his room right before Read the rest of this entry »
No disrespect to your favorite DJ, but for my hard drive space, I’m only checking for soulful mixes from Jaycee, Neil Armstrong or this cat, J. Period. Personal preference, knowing they’ve never faltered when it comes to remaining true to the artist’s sound.
So while we haven’t posted other MJ mixes that we’ve come across, this one goes up automatically. Read the rest of this entry »

Look, it takes Andy Milonakis doing Reggae in Auto-Tune, for us to post something remotely in the genre right? Not really but it should help to gain your attention.

Of course, there was plenty of material that we planned on posting on Thursday. But when the news & updates started coming in about Michael Jackson, the music stopped.
Of course, new tracks & videos didn’t literally cease hittin’ the net. It was just that, in a peculiar way, the only thing you could actually hear was the King of Pop’s music, be it audible or simply in your mind.
I told Adam last night, I like to think that my dad’s generation had James Brown to transcend all conceivable barriers through music & dance. Our generation had Michael Joseph Jackson.
He was a pop culture icon. At his peak, he was a true star whose name was recognizable even in parts of the globe where traditional media outlets were not. Influential & inspirational, he music will forever outlive him & remain as his legacy. What more can be said about the greatest singer, dancer & entertainer of our time?
Therefore, we take it to the music as the Crew shows their Love, The Michael Jackson Edition.
“Beat It”: The man’s musical influence has spanned over three generations and his music still holds value today. — K1NG
“Wanna Be Startin’ Something”: This song changed my life, as I learned to dance to it. It’s the high hats, horns and the classic chant, “Ma Ma Se, Ma Ma Sa, Ma Ma Coo Sa, Ma Ma Se, Ma Ma Sa, Ma Ma Coo Sa.” — Darius Sinclair™
“I Want You Back”: The emotion he was able to put into his vocals, the stage presence he had…even at 11 years old, MJ would blow some of these new jacks out of the water. — Amp
“I Can’t Help It”: Don’t front – you rocked the glove, the red jacket and busted out the moonwalk…we all grew up with The King, and I grew up to this Stevie Wonder-produced gem (later sampled for De La’s “Breakadawn”). — Jason Hortillas
Just last week he released his new single featuring Ms. Keri and things were looking up for the L.E.S representer. Now Tru Life is holed up on the Island for stabbing 2 people, one of whom died.

Rosado, 33, is currently held at Rikers Island on murder, assault and weapons possession charges, the sources said.
Ahh, it feels like just last week that…pardon, that was about to be a stale joke.
