Kid Cudi - BET Rising Icons

If you've been keeping up with the music game you know who Kid Cudi is. If you don't then here's your chance.

Kanye West signed Cudi after he heard his first single Day and Nite playing in clubs followed by crowds showing appreciation to the song.

Cudi's album is about to drop, or already did. It leaked a few weeks ago. He sets himself apart from other rappers by rapping about day to day struggles instead of being rich and famous. If his lyrics aren't enough to set him apart he also has a few songs that sound more like electronic beats than rap. His new album has 2 songs produced by Ratatat *electronic music* one of them even features MGMT.

I call it emo-rap, and I love it.

Enjoy.

Top Albums To Download to Your iPod

So my iPod crashed last week. I've got a LOT of music to re-download. So I will be posting every album I download.

First we'll start with MGMT.

This is an album anyone must have if they are into the indie music these days. I can't say much more than that, other than good music is good music. They are also going to be featured on the up coming Kid Cudi album, which is going to be extremely hip hop heavy.



Enjoy the Album, Oracular Spectacular

Jay-Z - "Run This Town" Video

This video had a lot of hype around it. It was worth it.

Jay-Z - "Reminder"

Here is a track from "Blueprint 3" by Jay-Z, which drops September 11th according to wikipedia.

Even though Jay-Z has a song called death to the auto tune, Kanye West produced most of this album and even had his two new artists on his label (Kid Cudi and Mr. Hudson) get on two separate tracks of this album.

Lil Wayne Sleeps In, Misses His Own Concert

Thats the word on the streets. Haha, so I guess he was just chillen, and passed out, slept through his own concert back on September 27th 2008 now they are suing him for something stupid like $432,000. Where was his manager?!

I'm sure he's good for the cash, and this whole thing will probably help his popularity. No press is bad press.

Mr. Hudson ft. Kanye West - Supernova

I liked this song when I first heard it now heres the video. Notice how Mr. Hudson comes from across the seas, and has an accent. Now notice how when Kanye sings chance he says "chonce" haha, i wonder why? Maybe it will be better received in the UK? who cares why, but I love the song.

B.E.T. Awards show and Michael Jackson

I think the show sunday will be epic. Sad that Michael Jackson died so early, on the flip side, with the awards show looming, i'm sure there will be much respect and many tributes to him. I'm looking forward to watching todays artists contributing to his memory.

Rumor has it Jay-Z and Beyonce are doing something for a tribute.

The Dream - Hit it on The Road

I love anything The Dream puts out. It took watching a youtube video of him in the studio to appreciate his greatness. New song by him called Hit it on the Road.

I like the the beat more than the song, but what ever.

The Dream - Hit it on the Road

R.I.P. Michael Jackson

I really think a majority of people who made fun of Michael Jackson were born before 1985, because the rest of the people on this earth were there to see him in his prime.

I kind of hoped he'd make some new music and get the respect he used to get.

I'm not sad that he's dead though, it does bother me though that now that he's dead he's getting way more respect. Thats how it always goes though.

Below is the moment Michael Jackson blew away everyone watching and then proceeded to do the same with his music.

3oh!3 on Jimmy Kimmel

Lots of peeps hate on them, but I like their funny lyrics, and their melodies. Every art form has a place for funny stuff, movies, magazines, books, talk radio, why do people look down on music like this?

If they sucked so bad would they be on tv?

Take it to 88!
