NEW MUSIC: Neverest REMIX(es) - Databse + Treasure Fingers

Two new 'Neverest' remixes for you.

NEW MUSIC: Lupe Fiasco 'Go To Sleep'

Here is the complete version of Lu's, 'Go To Sleep'. I you remember a week or so back, Lupe leaked a pretty good chunk of a snippet himself. A real solid piece from Lupe's upcoming album Lasers. Not exactly a game changer, but you could definitely listen to this on repeat for a bit.

NEW MUSIC: KanYe West featuring featuring Jay-Z and Swizz Beatz 'Power' REMIX

The not so highly anticipated, at least from my point of view, remix to KanYe's 'Power' is finally here. That being said, it's definitely a couple hundred steps up from the original. After some delay, Swizz delivers a remix that I imagine was more than worthy of Ye's approval, better done right than done quick. According to MTV, the pressure was on for Swizz Beatz. What you hear is the result of a collaborative effort from Ye, Jay-Z, John Legend, Swizz Beatz, input for this track was even gathered from Q-Tip, Mos Def and the Neptunes' Pharrell Williams. Definitely one for the playlist, link below. Enjoy.

'Power' Remix

If you're still not satisfied, The Glitch Mob has also done an astounding job remixing this record. Take a listen below, download link is in the player.

A hilarious and very good spoof of KanYe's music video to 'Power' after the jump.

MASHUP: 50 Cent featuring Justin Timberlake vs Mason & Landlord 'AYO' DOSVEC Mashup Remix

Probably going to be released on an upcoming EP, probably No Fillers 3. Download the first and second compilation @DOSVEC.com.

If you can't wait for the release of the next No Fillers, you can download 'AYO' below, in all it's degraded bit-rate glory.

RELEASE: MOXIE BLACK How Did This Happen

Ever since I was introduced to Moxie Black through 'So Much Better', I've been anticipating each release from the duo like I would anticipate music from KanYe or CuDi. These two have really come up with a successful formula for something unique. Now they present to us their free EP How Did This Happen, which actually dropped yesterday, regardless, here it is now. Enjoy!

Beats-a-plenty, genre bending, Autotune loving, content compelling, in part inspired by nothing and everything all at the same time. Moxie Black’s debut album, How Did This Happen?, combines the even-tempered Dekk—his meticulously infused indie-pop inspired arrangements, R&B melodies, and electro-pop production—with iLLA’s swagger—his confident bravado, out of the box cadences, and crass attitude.

How Did This Happen

NSFW: True Blood on the Cover of Rolling Stones

The show has been a great success and Season 3 of True Blood is heating up, hit the jump for the full undisclosed, or should I say unclothed, cover of the Rolling Stones magazine featuring the main cast of True Blood.

PICS: Lil Wayne's Jail Food Bill

Wayne's food/other needs bill from Riker's Island penitentiary. I really couldn't care less, but I just happened to come across it and thought it would be interesting to see what the needs this incarcerated rap star were, anyways, hit the pic for a blow up.

PICS: KanYe Offers Bieber a Remix Opportunity

Never thought I'd see KanYe reaching out to Bieber for a remix, but it seems the rules don't apply to this kid. Speaking of remixes, that 'Power' remix with Jay-Z was never delivered, was it? If anyone has it, link it up.

NEW MUSIC: Travis McCoy 'That's Not Cool'

New Travis McCoy 'That's Not Cool', a much deeper record than what we're used to from this guy, and with a title like that, who would've guessed? We've definitely seen lighter hearted material from this carefree living rap artist, this piece almost seems dark. Regardless, it's a real solid piece, which is not a lot of something we see from the more mainstream artist's who shoot out material that's just meant to be heard and not listened to. Which is something that, at least I think, is different.

Who the hell is Travie? I'm pretty sure his name is Travis, but I keep seeing Travie everywhere. Now that's not cool.


That's Not Cool

CLIPS: INDIAN POLE DANCING OLIMPYCS

This will either be one of the coolest or gayest things you've ever seen.

PICS: MR. RAGER

NEW MUSIC: KiD CuDi 'Mr. Rager'

'Mr. Rager' has finally hit, CuDi's new album's already making waves and it's not out yet. Now we know, who Mr. Rager is. Unfortunately, it has been pushed back. again. Something we have come to expect from anticipated releases such as this one, Man on the Moon II is now scheduled for release on 10/26. Cudi was originally aiming for an August release :(


Mr. Rager

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Yeasayer 'Madder Red'

Here is the music video for 'Madder Red' from Yeasayer's latest album Odd Blood. The video stars Kristen Bell as the pet owner of some freakish radioactive ball of dough, which is rather interesting. This is the third single off of Odd Blood, which I really recommend you check out. You can download their two other singles “Ambling Alp” and “O.N.E.” @Secretly Canadian.

NEW MUSIC: Kanye West featuring Beyonce & Charlie Wilson 'See Me Now'

New KanYe featuring Beyonce & Charlie Wilson 'See Me Now', produced by No I.D. & Lex Luger. Not exactly fireworks, but it's a solid track. You might recognize some of the lyrics in the beginning if you watched KanYe's facebook performances. Anyways, his album drops November 16, which remains an untitled work at the moment. KanYe recently revealed on a radio interview that the 'Power' remix featuring Jay-Z would drop Friday, which is today.

See Me Now

CLIPS: OWNAGE PRANKS 'The NEEGAH DEPARTMENT'

RELEASE: JAPANESE CARTOON IN THE JAWS OF THE LORDS OF DEATH

Completely out of the loop on this one. Last I heard, they were dropping it on the 4th of July, then it turns out they weren't. Anyways, it's finally here and it's FREE. All you have to do is go to allsabotage.com and register, then you'll get it in an email. Or if you're that anxious, take a listen below.

Check out more art from Shohei Otomo after the jump. He is the artist behind the album art work for IN THE JAWS OF THE LORDS OF DEATH.

NEW MUSIC: Cam Hodges 'Really Do Like You'

Saw this guy on America's Got Talent tonight. His name is Cam Hodges and he is one incredible singer, and a good song writer as well. Check him out above singing 'Really Do Like You'. While there's no CD quality download for this one, you can get the rip below. Cam does however plan to put this up for download somewhere in the future, most likely iTunes. So hopefully a good quality version is available soon, in the meantime, enjoy!

Check out his YouTube channel CamHodgesTV for more.

Really Do Like You

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Fenech Soler 'Lies'

This is Fenech Soler's new video for their current single 'Lies'. I like the concept of this video, it reminds me of their 'Stop and Stare' video. It would be great if they did an alternate video for the WolfChild Remix of 'Lies'. Click HERE to watch their old promo video for "Lies".

PICS: Weezer's New Album Cover

They've decided to name the album Hurley. After the character named Hurley, from LOST, because he's only on the cover. -_-

MASHUP: J Dilla vs. Moxie Black vs. Death Cab For Cutie 'Closer'

New Moxie Black joint, 'Closer' produced by The Dust Will Settle. Staying true to their indie pop feel, with Death Cab For Cutie to help with the indie rock element, Moxie Black delivers a different tone this time. Not saying I don't like it, but it definitely has a different feel to it than their last track, 'So Much Better', which is more of a summer track compared to this one.

Remember, Moxie Black's eleven-track album How Did This Happen? will be available as a free download on August 18, 2010, so stay posted.

CLIPS: Kanye West@Singfest 2010 in Singapore 'I am a New Man' Freestyle

Never seen or heard KanYe freestyle ever, so this was a first for me, needless to say I was won over. Using his single Power for his instrumental, KanYe really delivers a great freestyle at Singfest 2010 in Singapore. Starts off a little slow, trying to get a feel for what he's gonna say, then he gets the ball rolling.

NEW MUSIC: KiD CuDi 'Mojo So Dope'

'Mojo So Dope', one of the two tracks that leaked a week or two ago, is finally here. This one is off of CuDi's upcoming Man on the Moon II: the Legend of Mr. Ranger. Definitely one for the playlist, but what I really can't wait for is Mr. Rager. Lyrics after the jump, because my mojo so dope bitch.

edit: The song he sampled for this is called 'Claustrophobia' by The Choir of Young Believers.


Mojo So Dope


[Kid Cudi]
Did it leanin, skinny jean wearing, ‘fro for days in the O A A
balls so low most fools couldnt price me
sign and stunt with a blunt full of B E
and I guess you know me,
been in NY so long got Tri-State family
especially Brooklyn shout out to Damati’s
my bloodline runs deep, unless I don’t sleep
figure it’s my pops keeping me away
help me keep my mind off the clouds for reality
these muthaf-ckers can’t fathom the wizardry
slow more brain thats backwards cowards
took a shower your attitude stinks
wanna know what I think?

[Chorus]
Oh ohhh, oh,
hey my mojo so dope b-tch
hey my mojo so dope
yep we live it, live it
yeh we on it, on it
give a f-ck about your lifestyle,
give a f-ck about a muthaf-cking lifestyle cause n-gga
we, we live this sh-t
Oh ohhh, oh,
give a f-ck about your lifestyle,
give a f-ck about a muthaf-cking lifestyle cause n-gga

[Kid Cudi - Verse 2]
I live through words not metaphors
so I passed to be the rest of the freshmen
playful tough talk
often the fave till I came to park heart
and said true things
a whole new legion of some n-ggas
aiming high pass the idea slangin
praise Allah for keeping me awake man
I lot of my n-ggas fell victim to the dope game
some things will never be same
wish I could tell my brother something for some motivation
and get him out that gutter
he’s leaving behind a family and a mother
damn you must understand when I speak about a song its how I really am
yeah this is how I really think
you could see what I see, yes I really wink
yes I really drink
I really do rage my demons at the cage
by most of the day before I became the age to even rage
I was drowning them sorrows with some more E n-gga
[Chorus]

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: Eminem and Rihanna 'Love the Way You Lie' featuring MEGAN FOX

Here's the new video for Eminem's 'Love the Way You Lie', featuring vocals from Rhianna, which in part make this song what it is. Aside from the unlikely collaboration of Eminem and the artificial ginger, Rihanna, we have "actress" Megan Fox and actor Dominic Monaghan acting out some of the lyrics. Mrs. Fox, no introduction needed here, is in some sort of abusive relationship obviously and well Dominic Monaghan, who some of you might recognize as Charlie from the hit show LOST, is the abusive boyfriend. Enjoy.

On another note, EMINEM has been nominated for 8 MTV Video Music Award's, congratulations. If you're interested in curlyfries or are just in the mood for a good parody to this song, hit the jump for the parody to this song 'Curlyfries'.

EDIT: Apparently this video broke records. 6.6 million YouTube views in 24 hours! It even beat KanYe's 'Power', which only got a measly 1.4 million in the same time. Who knew Megan Fox was a bigger star than KanYe.

WHAT?: Wyclef Jean Running for President in Haiti

It's not exactly a shocker, however it is shocking. Haitian rap artist Wyclef Jean is now running for president of Haiti. He's always been a supporter of his own home country, especially during the devastator earthquake. Although his charity was clouded with rumors of fraud and such, I'm pretty sure his intentions will be perfectly clear on this one. This is what Wyclef had to say.

"I wanted to bring Santa Claus to the slums because these kids were poor but I didn't feel like they shouldn't have a Christmas, so I brought a carnival into the slum and I took a helicopter and I landed with my daughter and a Santa Claus right in the middle of Cité Soleil."

He was staying as he always does in Haiti in the Hotel Montana. Three weeks later, on 12 January, the entire building was reduced to rubble in the massive Haitian earthquake.

"We escaped death by a few weeks. So that's why I'm standing [for president]. Maybe I could have waited another 10 years for this, but this is urgent. Singing about policy is not enough. I've seen musicians sing about it all their life. I've taken the position to not only exercise what we are singing about, but to see if we could take five years to move this country into a better direction."

For some reason, this excites me more than do our own retarded politics. I think it's because this candidates is actually in a position to do something great for a broken country, and not only that, he most likely will, and mark his place in history. No homo.

NEW MUSIC VIDEO: KanYe West 'Power'

ART IN MOTION? What happened to the rest? To tell you the truth, the sneak peak is actually better. Your reaction after the jump.

CLIPS: Eva Mendes S.EX Tape

The sex tape you've all been waiting for! It's finally here!

CLIPS: We Gonna Find You Homeboy

Hit the jump for two homeboylicious remixes.

RELEASE: KANYE WEST 'POWER' MUSIC VIDEO

KanYe's breaking barriers with this one. Here is some footage from the video and more. It's really more of a look inwards into the project, not really something we get with these "behind the scenes" clips if you will. Calling it as such, really sort of cheapens the clip in this case, because it's so much more than just a behind the scenes. Now mind you I just took an art class recently so it might be why I rapidly jumped to this thought, but the Sistine Chapel is not exactly an obscure piece of art. As I was watching the artistic scenes, it immediately came to mind, you really see the influence. As it turns out, some of the images in this production actually were inspired by the very same. The visual master piece for 'Power' is set to premiere on MTV, Thursday August 5th following Jersey Shore, @11PM.

"POWER shows a continuous camera move from extreme close-up of Mr. West revealing an a neoclassical video tableau showing characters and creatures surrounding him in an abstract environment - all moving in extreme slow motion.

Inspired by Michelangelo's frescos in the Sistine Chapel, the piece depicts a faux historical moment - an empire on the brink of collapse from its own excess, decadence and corruption."

RELEASE: the Black Eyed Peas 'The Beginning'

Making a bit of a play on the name of their last album The End, their new album, which will drop later this year, is going to be titled The Beginning . Hit the jump for an amazing performance in Montreal from their world tour.

NEW MUSIC: Wale 'Black & Gold' produced by DJ Omega

New Wale track 'Black & Gold', actually a cover of Australian artist Sam Sparro's 'Black & Gold' which has actually been out for two years or so, it didn't really start to take off here until about a couple of months ago, at least to my knowledge. DJ Omega and Wale really put a spin on it, really just refreshes the value of the original if you ask me. But you didn't, so I apologize. Wale's 'The Mixtape About Nothing' mixtape, after the jump.

WHAT?: KanYe Performs EVERYWHERE

Who the hell knows why KanYe's touring social network headquarters, but he's also decided to drop by Twitter, and although they don't have their own social network, well at least I don't think so, Rolling Stone headquarters. Hit the jump for KanYe's sermon/rap & blowing up his ego @the Rolling Stones.
