Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

This movie looks pretty tough. I'm not 100 percent sure what its about but the lifestyle shown looks very interesting.

Cool Grey 11s & White Cement 3s

2010, looks like the heavy hitters of Retros this year are going to be Chicago Xs and Cool Grey 11s. Now I personally have mixed feelings about these coming back out. First of all, Jordan in my opinion needs to pump the breaks a bit on releases. They're releasing a million VIs this year. I like the idea but I wish that the hotter retros, would be much more limited. This release in particular hits home, only because I already have a pair of the 01 release. There used and not in the best condition but still look nice and have a comfortable feel. I'm happy these will be released because I can now have a clean pair, but I also love when I throw on a shoe and know that chances are I'm more likely not going to see the same shoe on someone else's feet. Oh well! I'm still going to have to cop...


These are planned to be released around Holiday Season 2010

Also this year, it's been confirmed that as apart of the Slam Dunk Pack, the White Cement 3s will be included.

Behind the Boards

Is Kanye West back on his humble tip? Lately, I've noticed a lot of tracks produced by Kanye. He's been quiet lately but will forever remain loud in the public but maybe hell take a few steps out of the spotlight for a minute just put a bunch of produced tracks til it's time for his album to drop...



Here is a track that he produced for B.O.B and Asher Roth, two rappers I don't really listen to ever but I like the beat on this one. Check it out

Behind A Tee

Street | Talk NY EP2 Phillip T Annand from Street Talk on Vimeo.

Phil from the Award Tour kicks some knowledge. Something that really hits at home:

What is going to set you apart you from others?

Hundreds of people make there own lines of clothing but what is going to make yours stand out. Its more to it than what is on a cloth t shirt but it also has to do with what is behind it. Just something to think about.

Lemonade Freestyle ~ Finally Famous Vol. 3

Big Sean's coming back out with a Finally Famous Vol. 3 mixtape. Now as far as artist go on Good Music, hes cool but clearly not on the top priority right now, he needs a bigger buzz, polish somethings before he can get some more play. He states in the song that he might be dropping an album after Kanye, who is rumored to come back this year and go back to his old sound days. Big Seans cool though so when the mixtape comes out, itll be in my ipod.

Dubstep

Over Christmas Break, a friend of mine who went to school in Cananda came back and his ipod was complete different. While he was shuffling this song came across and ever since I've been playing it. I really wish someone would spit over it though. I hear like FKI or someone over it. Check ir out and you decide, is this too weird for someone to flow over or would it be kind crazy...?

Swizz Picasso

The super producer Swizz Beatz has had a long and successful run as a producer/engineer/artist in the music industry. Now its not really news that hes been working hard on his Art lately, but i had no idea how serious he was going in on it. The work and paintings he mentions, does, and studies is so inspirational. Not just to go out and create art but more in the sense of getting ideas for BlahZeBlah projects, and the concepts behind the paints are just cool in general. If I had money, this would inspire me to become a collector... Who Knows, maybe one of these days

Cudder is Back

KiD CuDi "cudderisback" - Directed by Jason Goldwatch - DatNewCudi.com from DP on Vimeo.

I'm not the biggest fan of this song too much, but its kind of growing on me in a way. I love the what he talks about in this song though. It sounds like something that was made when he was bored, but hes a funny guy. A cool artistic clown. The makes me wonder though, will there be a documentary about Cudi coming soon..I think itd be interesting. Who Knows...

This video is kind of funny...watch when he references Nba 2k10, i couldn't help but laugh. Wherever this video is shot is beautiful though. Thats a vacation im sure we could all use

FKI links up with Juicy J

FKI, the coolest group out of Atlanta on the scene right now is back with a cool song with called That'll Work featuring Juicy J. To be honest this feature was a shocker in my eyes, but the songs dope. Check it out! If you unfamiliar with FKI look them up and download Blue Steel Mixtape. They're beats are cool as shit.

Download Thatll Work ft. Juicy J here!

A smooth unreleased Common song from the Finding Forever Sessions has surfaced the net..It's a smooth classic typical common sense track produced by non other than the man Kanye West! The sample is cool and is rumored to be a Sylvia Robinson sample. Im still looking to find this one, but download this its nice.

Fantastic Vol 2.10

The tenth anniversy for Slum Village's Fantastic Vol.2 dropped Jan.12th, with the release of this classic and one of my personal favorite albums, makes me wonder where music is going today, and If we'll ever hear a album in the near future with production, beats, lyrics and just an overall vibe like this one. RIP J- Dilla, and Baatin. Elzhi,T3, Ill J keep doing your thing! Were still here with you.

Blah ze Blah on the move, Philly x NYC

Last monday me and S.W.A.T packed our goods and headed to Philly for a couple days, We couldnt stay in Philly and not check up to see if our good ol' friend Jamal Smith was still alive, after chillin with J.Smith for a little we headed up to the Big Apple, the only place were if you sit on the subway you can overhear a conversation about how much the dude sitting behind S.W.A.T spent on his "mink" coat. Alot of time was spent in NYC studios, running in and out of boutiques and doing other things... a trip up north never gets old, and its always good to see some old friends you haven't seen in awhile, and our choice for sneaker stomping would have to be the comfy Nike Air Yeezy. Probably the only reason why I didnt complain throughtout all the walking done in these big cities.








Shoutout to the homie Karl for the pics.
