Kid Cudi tasered??




Crazy! I've met this dude before and he is mad cool. Apparently he was to perform at a Reebok after party. The altercation started when he refuse to wear Reebok's instead of the Jordan's he all ready had on. I don't blame him, I don't really care for Reebok any ways. You can read the article HERE

10 MILLION TRACKS REMAIN UNSOLD!

J. Period with Q-Tip



Please go and download this! HERE!


"Celebrated for his award-winning remix collaborations with hip hop & R&B elite (Lauryn Hill, Kanye West, The Roots, Mary J. Blige), DJ/Producer J.Period (3X MTV Top DJs, 2X Mixtape DJ of the Year) has redefined the mixtape game with documentary-style "Best of" collections that blend hits, remixes and behind-the-scenes interview footage into comprehensive musical biographies. On February 10, 2009, J.Period elevates this documentary style to new heights with The [Abstract] Best, Vol 1, a tribute to hip hop icon, Q-Tip (of A Tribe Called Quest), featuring exclusive new tracks from an All-Star lineup of hip hop legends and rising stars: De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, ?uestlove, Black Thought, Talib Kweli, Pharoahe Monch, Consequence, Zion I, Skillz, Black Sheep, Kid Cudi and Blu -- all paying tribute to The Abstract's legacy.

This unprecedented mixtape arrives on the heels of Q-Tip's critically-acclaimed album, The Renaissance (released November 4), and urges a new generation of fans to take note of Q-Tip's tremendous contributions to hip hop throughout his career. Few artists have shaped both an entire generation of MCs (see: Common, Mos Def, Andre 3000), and an entire generation of producers (see: Kanye West, 9th Wonder, Pharrell), quite like The Abstract."

BOBBITO GARCIA - RICH MEDINA DYNAMIC DUO




The 2 of these dudes have got to be some of my FAVORITE DJ'S/TASTEMAKERS/DUDES ever. No really the list goes on for days for how much the 2 of them have accomplished. They are both putting out this compilation coming out April 19th. Click HERE to listen to the tracks. Trust me this has been on alllll day long. Here is what R2 records had to say ...

"Info
The Connection: Modern Explorations In Afro and Latin Music is the vision of Rich Medina and Bobbito Garcia. The two are considered amongst the worldÕs most progressive club DJs, having provided Hip Hop, Dance, and Rare Groove to dancers for 40+ years combined.

In the last decade, they have each fostered intense followings for specific genres and sounds. In Big RichÕs case, itÕs been Afro Beat/Funk/Jazz and World Soul. The multi-talented poet/producer/songwriterÕs eight-year-old JUMP ÔN FUNK Fela Kuti Tribute Party is widely recognized as the very best of its kind, as he has at times carried that movement on his back and been largely responsible for the current revival of the original ÒBlack President.Ó Similarly, Hip Hop radio legend and former Vibe Magazine columnist Kool Bob LoveÕs mission has been to expose rare Latin / Jazz / Funk / Soul / Breaks at his award-winning VINYL IS FOREVER monthly at APT (NYC), as well as at the bi-coastal FANIA RECORDS TRIBUTE annual gigs.

Close friends since 1990, Rich and Bob started spinning together in Ô97, and have branded their musical journeys at their HAPPY FEET party to the great pleasure of crowds worldwide. An inspired competition exists between them to outdo the other by introducing underexposed tunes. The Connection allows for others to share that joy that goes on in their DJ booth. This compilation represents their passion for the rhythm that runs through us all, as well as the respect and love they have for each other. We hope that it connects you to your ancestors, or maybe just neighbors across the street, and way beyond É

NB This is a double CD with 24 tracks.

For more information please contact: kyri@r2records.com"

Wash your mouth out....digitally



I'm sure most people who used MYSPACE and FACEBOOK are now using TWITTER. So there is like a million different pages that will tell you whats going on with TWITTER. Like who has the most updates, followers, and even specific to areas of use. But this site was pretty ill. It follows real time how many people use certain curse words. CURSEBIRD is the site, I tried it and it works. Kind of scary if you ask me.

Well I missed most of it but here is what I have for ya.
