An album, LP, EP, mixtape? I think this remixed project in whatever format you wanna call it perfectly symbolizes Blu’s nature of releasing new music. You gotta love it. It sounds very rough around the edges, but if you love Blu, you know it’s worth the listen.
The project is a remix of last year’s No [...]
We should have all seen the video by now. M.I.A. and the director Romain Gavras talk about the inspiration behind the video. Interspersed are clips from the locals talking about their ambitions, the stuntwoman talking about her interests and clips of drifting and two-wheeling that are hard to believe are real. The Saudi dudes in [...]
Though he missed his flight from L.A. to NYC that would have landed him at 3 p.m. (rather than midnight) the day before this interview, Rockie Fresh was in good spirits as he awaited his performance at Hofstra University. This would be his last show before he hit Austin, TX the next day to perform [...]
If you skip past the awkwardly-placed George Michael “Careless Whisper” part of the video, you’ll uncover a record produced by Oh No, and lyrically smacked by Yasiin Bey. This is part of a series by Mr. Mass called “Yasiin Duz Paris.”

If there’s any artist that can fill time with educational rhetoric and political commentary, it’s Immortal Technique. His last project, The Martyr, was really dope and had incredible content, as he never fails to do.
In this interview, he discusses his [...]
The cycle of redemption represents one of the many shining moments of any upcoming artist’s career. Big K.R.I.T. has completed that cycle as he performed at the same Highline Ballroom that booed him only two years ago while performing his Southern anthem “Country Sh*t.”
Now, “Country Sh*t” has a remix which features Southern heavyweights Ludacris and [...]
From afar, THEESatisfaction appears to be a duo who might get fed up receiving more “cute” and “adorable” feedback than actual criticism. Being young, talented and gorgeous has its pitfalls, I suppose.
