“When Life Imitates Art” – O.J. Simpson In Suspect 32

11.29.09 Written by TC

Oh this clown Orenthal James.

Currently doing a bid for conspiracy to commit crimes, coercion and just being a creep period, as fate would have it, he shot a goofy movie where his character specialized in all of the above. Read the rest of this entry »

TSS Presents The Pack Vol. 1

11.29.09 Written by Gotty™

keri-hilson-complex1

Work smarter, not harder.

Posting compiled Loosies is always time consuming to an extent. It’s always good to feel like we’re getting tracks out to you & it always gives a “Uhh? Who us?” feeling when an unheard of artist sends an email thanking us for including their mp3 in a Loosies set. But @ the same time, I started to notice that where an estimated hour or two per day would be spent rounding up Loosies, they’d only be downloaded by a handful of the several thousand travelers who cross our e-doorstep daily.

Mack 10 Feat. Glasses Malone – “Hoo-Bangin II”

11.29.09 Written by K1NG

mack10

In all honesty, before I read TC’s review, I was unaware that Mack 10 even released an album this year. Considering my affinity for Westside Connection and all of its members, I found this troubling. Especially since his record label is also home to two of the most prominent figures in Hip-Hop today in Lil’ Wayne and Drake.

While I have yet to soak in the entire project, the Dow Jones produced “Hoo-Bangin’ II” has definitely sparked my interest and moved it up a few spots in my queue. The LA native finds himself teaming up with newcomer and label-mate Glasses Malone to spit some West Coast game for the uninitiated. Dao provides him with the same combination of smooth bass, well-placed piano keys and slick drums that you would expect out of one half of Tha Bizness.

“Nasty With The Bass…”

11.29.09 Written by Corey Bloom

jack-splash

At first the idea of the Plantlife vocalist/producer Jack Splash spitting instead of serenading sounded a little unnecessary, but if “Rick James (Nasty With The Bass),” and the whole Heir To The Throne tape really, is any indication of what’s to come…damn. I need music to genuinely look forward to and be entertained by and Jack does just that. Read the rest of this entry »

30 Seconds To Mars Feat. Kanye West – “Hurricane”

11.28.09 Written by TC

kanye-west-jared-leto-brandon-flowers

Let’s take it to outerspace for a second–or thirty. It seems like Jared Leto ran up on Kanye during the period when he was 808ing and heartbreakin’ and convinced him to auto-croon a few licks on the record. Now, “Hurricane” will appear on 30 Seconds To Mars’ new LP This Is War, releasing December 8th, 2009. Read the rest of this entry »

Rashad – “One Time 4 The Kid”

11.28.09 Written by MZ

rashad

The only thing more difficult than making it in the music industry is making a comeback in the music industry.  It takes most artists in, churns them up & spits them out, all while searching for the next “one” the fill the previous’ 15 minute run.  With a modest hit in “Sweet Misery,” Columbus, Ohio native Rashad had his 14:59 in the limelight and is looking to get his full 15 minutes.  Electing to rap instead of sing this time around, he’s been working solo, with his group The 3rd and had credits on L.e.’s Anti-Parachute Theory.

You Let Paul Pierce Do WHAT To You?!?

11.28.09 Written by TC

Paul Pierce is a bona fide baller no doubt. But there’s been plenty of times when he appeared to have the hangtime of an ostrich. Well, ladies and gents, yesterday wasn’t one of those times. It’s one thing to be posterized by a notorious dunker like a LeBron or Kobe, but you’ll never hear the end of it when you let a pure shooter dig his calf-high socks into your abdomen.
