Coming Attractions: adidas adiZero Rose 2 Triple Black

10.26.11 Written by Gotty™

My only qualm with the “Away” adiZero Rose 2 was the white soles. I despise white soles as they’re weak foes when it comes to fighting off dirt and staying crispy. The design gods at adidas must have heard my plea for black soles and decided to lay it on thick by creating a triple black version of Rose’s new joints. Read the rest of this entry »

The Black Keys Release “Lonely Boy” Video, The First Single From “El Camino”

10.26.11 Written by Ryan J.

Pharoahe Monche once said, “f*ck the white boys because The Black Keys have so much soul,” so it was only a matter of time before the Keys shared some more of that soul with the world. This morning they released “Lonely Boy,” the first single off their upcoming LP, El Camino. There’s not much rhyme nor reason to the video, but the marketing behind the new album has shown little anyways. However, this lack of visual aesthetic places full emphasis on the 330 Boys’ musical project, which is typical Keys: wanton guitar riffs and batty drum kicks. Seven albums in and it’s apparent that they still have plenty of “soul” to spare.

El Camino is Christmas-come-early on December 6. Pre-order it now and get an instant download of “Lonely Boy.”

Flo Rida – “Good Feeling” Video

10.26.11 Written by TC

Would it be a fair assumption to say Flo Rida’s “Good Feeling” will be in the end credits of The Hangover Part III if ever such a thing comes to be into existence? It’s fun, it’s pop and it’s ready to rock. It’s also a given that this number will be abused across dance floors and Carnival cruise ships alike, but Flo wants this to be the gym anthem of the winter. Read the rest of this entry »

Wale Feat. Big Sean – “Slight Work” (Prod. By Diplo)

10.25.11 Written by TC

Since “Bait” was the full body work…work…work…work…work, Wale and his bigger little bro, Sean, are taking it easy and digging in with “Slight Work” this time around. Don’t mistake the title for a lack of Ambition, however. The two stylish spitters recruit Diplo for all the bells, whistles and trimmings that you find in the wee hours of the night in the club.

Styles P Feat. Busta Rhymes & Rick Ross – “Harsh” Video

10.25.11 Written by TC

A light guesstimate leads me to speculate that Styles, Busta and Rozay weigh nearly a half ton combined. So when their BMI meets a massive bass line, such as the one exhibited on “Harsh,” the platonic plates are destined to buckle under the pressure. See for yourself as the rap heavyweights don’t lift a leg for the video in its duration. The new Fat Boys? Maybe so. Read the rest of this entry »
