AFRICAAANNN SWIIIIMMMM
This is one of the many reasons why I love Adult Swim as much as I do. They put out crazy indie/ug albums that are pretty good, but more for the fact that they know and understand the counter culture so much to put out stuff like this. This album they're putting out for free, like all the other ones, is about african hip-hop. Download it HERE and enjoy.
NO SIR! ...No Kanye West or Ludacris Leaks Here
Sorry people, I can't allow myself to post any leaks of the new Kanye West album, 808's & Heartbreak, or Ludacris' Theater of the Mind. Hit HHDX, HHG, or any of the many blogs that put those up if you wanna hear'em, but I won't do it on here! Kanye's new one only has 12 tracks on it for god sake... there's like 4-5 tracks out, that's 1/4-1/2 of the album already. don't do it. Just wait. PATIENCEEEE.
COMMON: official cover + tracklisting
01. U.M.C. (feat. Pharrell)
02. Punch Drunk Love (Feat. Kanye West)
03. Make My Day (Feat. Cee-Lo Green)
04. Sex 4 Sugar
05. Announcement (feat. Pharrell)
06. Gladiator

XXL's Freshmen 10
I haven't bought a XXL in forever and a day, not cuzz I think it's wack nor or anything, but just... it is kinda repetitive at times and they never really reach out to the less known, yet very talented, artists that deserve if not cover status, actual articles/interviews on them, not tidbits and such. Looks like XXL is going to try something different and very needed with their newest edition coming out next month. Check out the covers below. They're also going to put out a mixtape of the new up and coming talents. Finally... right time.
Bonus: Leak from the new mixtape.

Kanye Will Eat 2008
There have and will be great albums that drop/ped this year, but once Kanye's comes out, I'm not sure if I can say another album this year will even stand up against it, in hip-hop that is. Mars Volta, Gnarls Barkley, and Margot are at the top this year, but I'll see if Kanye can knock those giants out the park.
MARGOT & THE NUCLEAR SO & SO's
If you don't know, you should find out very soon. If you're ever in your local mom & pop or corporate record store and happen to see these two covers, make sure you pick them both up. Margot & the... is an amazing band. Very melodic, a bit folksie, and in a league of their own. Never hard, tough, or aggressive. Easy to digest and fall in love with. Their first album, Dust of Retreat was on repeat (and still is) for a very long time in my deck, and now their new one, ANIMAL, is out, and is fucking amaz^ing. It is hands down one of the best albums to drop in '08. Do YOURSELF a favor, and check these out.
Lyfe Jennings Is A Fuck Up
Lyfe Jennings got into a bit of trouble recently. Dude shot of a gun in public, attempted to elude cops which led to his dumbass crashing and that's why his face is so shitty in that mugshot, as well as refusing to take a sobriety test. He's already been to jail for 10 years for arson, now look at him. Not looking so good. idiot.

T-Shirts I Must Have!!
Me and my dudes SL & KuoteOble were just talking about Weird Science and how classic it is. That robot chick was bangiiiiiiing, the brother was a huge awkward dick, and the story basically covers whats on every dudes mind like 100x a day: boobs, poongo, and booty. Classic shit, gotta get this one like... later this month! And check out the text, it's true, all girls love nerds, just some are unfortunate enough to pump the G's.
And for good measures, check out another tee I found by the same designer, Dabaaaz who is also a french rapper. This Cosby tee is the fuckin' troooof.

Satellites Go Up On Behalf of Google
The GeoEye-1 has gone up already which is a super high quality satellite that basically sees all in super HD. Get ready for the GPC technology to get even more advanced in the next coming years and the googlemaps capability to enhance further. They are shooting the GeoEye-2 in about 2-3 years, but check out what the GeoEye-1 is capable of:

I LOVE CAPCOM.
I'm the biggest Capcom fan you'll ever meet. To me, Capcom is the best video game company. From classics like Commando, Mega Man, Street Fighter, Ghost n' Goblins, and Final Fight (just to name a few), to less known classics like Power Stone, Chaos Legion, God Hand (again, just to name a few), to newer gems like Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Clocktower (again... well, you get it) they just can't be beat. Here's the new trailer for Bionic Commando and some more videos of SF4 coming out next year!
NE-YO Goes All Out
In a live interview after a performance, Ne-Yo says fuck it and goes at a few choice people in the game. He also gets into some other personal things.

ARTISTS FINALLY COMING OUT ON GOOD MUSIC
Looks like things are moving along on the GOOD Music label. Feels like after this 808s & Heartbreaks album, Kanye is going to focus more on his artists. Finally good to see footage of Consequence and a new GLC video and possibly putting Kid Cudi on the new Kanye album. Hopefully he helps put Big Sean soon; he deserves to be heard. Check out GLC's new music video for I ANT EVEN ON YET.

Kanye Premiers Love Lockdown Video On Ellen!
Interesting place to world premier a video, Kanye gave it to Ellen to be seen first on her show. Nothing more needs to be said, take a look:
lmao... Charles Hamilton = Lame
Have you heard the new song, "Lacey Duvalle"? If not, look no further than below for the link. It's kind of funny, but more like corny and retarded. I just finished finally listening to that Death of the Mixtape Rapper mixtape and it was pretty cool, but he has alot of hype built up that he has to power through. This song doesn't help. Womp. To each his own.
CHARLES HAMILTON - LACEY DUVALLE
Bud Thumb Drive
Yeah, believe it. That's an actual thumb drive and that is actual beer in the thumb drive. Me being the alcoholic that I am, would love to own one of these. They come in 1, 4, and 8 GB and you can even customize what liquid you actually want in their. I'd say for mine, pour me up some Red Bull in that thing.
MUSIC VIDEO: HOLLYWOOD HOLT - THROW A KIT
First + foremost I'd like to thank Lizzy for putting me up on Hollywood Holt. Never heard of dude at all before I saw the post on her blog about the tour he's on with Kid Cudi. I dig this guys music and this song is fly, yet hilarious. I was diggin' around and found the video and decided to put it up. Also found his mixtape on his website and it's pretty dope.
PS: If you look closely you see Inglish and Mikey from the Cool Kids in the back.
