KANYE WEST F/ JAY-Z-POWER REMIX

Kanye has been tweeting about this remix for quite some time so when Funkmaster Flex played it in NYC everyone went crazy. I’m just gonna let you listen. The ending (via Swizz) is ridiculous. Can’t wait to hear it in the club. I will be leaning!

BLIND I SAYS GO! AUGUST 2010 • THE INTERLUDE

I really outdid myself with this one. This…..right here….is my…..most fluid, themed, consistent BISG compilation yet! August’s edition of Blind I Says GO! is giving love to the joints you love but forget to revisit….the Yin to the typical Yang of selections that jump out at us on out favorite records….yes that’s right, the INTERLUDE! When I came up with this concept I had a few special ones in mind that I’d always loved, but I had no idea I’d be able to pick 40 tracks that combined into an hour-long mindgasm of sonic delicacy. You like my wordplay I know you do. All the greats are here along for the ride too — 112, Little Brother, Hi-Tek, Usher, Talib Kweli, Sa-Ra, Brand New Funk, Justin Timberlake, Sonnymoon, I, CED, Common, Bilal, The Neptunes, N.E.R.D., Group Home, Outkast, SWV, Dwele, Drake, Missy Elliott, Kelis, Timbaland & Magoo, John Legend, Mayer Hawthorne, Yesterday’s New Quintet, Erykah Badu, Diddy, B.I.G., Madlib, Jay-Z, Janelle Monaé, Jake One, Dilla, Gang Starr, Dimlite, Dert, Constrobuz, Beat Maker Beat, Sol+10….I mean C’MON SON!

VIDEO: KANYE PERFORMS SONGS FROM GOOD ASS JOB

Wow the folks over at the Facebook offices got a special delivery from  from  Mr. West.  Kanye, clad in a suit and seemingly excited, spouted off  tracks from his highly anticipated album, Good Ass Job. When we got word of the rumored tracklist, many of us were curious about” Chain Heavy,” featuring Eminem and Jay-Z. From listening to the lyrics a Capella, he spits some bars from the this song in the first clip. He also previews “Lost in The World” and “Mama’s Boyfriend.” Heat!

Pop the hood for the videos and to see what he said about his performance.

DJ JAZZY JEFF AND MICK BOOGIE PRESENT-SUMMERTIME

I was at a cookout yesterday and Will Smith and Jazzy Jeff’s “Summertime” came on. There really is no such thing as having an event during the season without hearing this and other classic summertime songs. So, right on time for the 4th, Mick Boogie Undrcrwn and Jeff teamed up to create this mixtape with almost 50 hits from De la Soul to Quincy Jones. Audible goodness for days. Check out the tracklist after the jump.

DON’T CALL IT A REDEMPTION SONG

Folks all across Negronia and beyond tuned into last night’s BET Awards in anticipation of the network’s second attempt at a Michael Jackson tribute. I didn’t watch live because, well, I ain’t got cable. I am convinced that having access to so much television would make me lazy. And also, I’m poor. In anticipation of the key performances making their way to YouTube, I was able to garner the public’s reaction via Twitter. Interesting to say the least.

Chris Brown, who was unable to partake last year in the wake of beating his girlfriend’s ass, was given clearance to do the sort of MJ tribute all of us had been waiting for (not to shortchange the dope tribute at last year’s VMA’s, which was overshadowed by the Kanye/Taylor and Jay+Alicia+Lil’ Mama incidents):

JAYDIOHEAD

Sometimes we get schitt in our inbox where it’s an immediate BLAH… & we just delete off top. Then there’s the times where the email is actually addressed to us & not on some mass email or BS like… “the most anticipated yada yada yada” where we just delete off top as well. Sometimes… they are decent. & Sometimes they are more than decent. This schitt right here doe my nigga? Producer Max Tannone‘s  Jay-Z vs. Radiohead mash ups were brought to life through this visual mix of his Jaydiohead project. The dancing is dope. The steez is flava. The directing & entire schitt the way it was shot is pretty damn clean & movie-esque… doesn’t feel like I’m watching a regular ass video. I think its pretty fly… what about you?
