First Listen!

New York radio is the best!
Don't seem like Maino is going anywhere anytime soon. He is back with All The Above featuring T-Pain. I love it; Brooklyn stand the hell up!



Mashonda is making the rounds dishing dirt bout her marriage but more importantly she is back with new music! Have a listen to the new ladies anthem entitled Dirty Laundry featuring Eve. Get'em gurl!



click the link for Wale's Good Girls ; feels like summer with this one! Shouts to FROactive for this one;-)

Welcome Home Mr. Forte

Kanye blogged this a day or two ago. I was a fan and my heart broke when the whole incident and his sentence went down. If you only know John Forte from the Fugees, do yourself a favor and cop the Poly Sci album release in 1998. Don't tell anyone, but I found mine years ago in the bargain bind at Amoeba records in the bay;-)


"Homecoming" John Forte + Talib Kweli from The ICU on Vimeo.

Done & Done!

The whole kit & kaboodle. I still feel the electricity a week later;-)

President Barack Obama 2009 Inauguration and Address

First Look>>Afro Samurai:The Resurrection

I have been seeing billboards for the movie Afro Samurai: The Resurrection
Thanks to Fader I now know that The RZA produced some tracks and that's really all I need to know to see it! Oh, and it stars Samuel Jackson too.
I fuckin' love Wu-Tang; Wu-Tang forever.

How To>>Cold Remedy

I'm sick! It's little, and in the beginning stages but once I feel that scratchy, raw feeling at the back of my throat, I know it's about to get U-G-L-Y. I had heard of taking ginger for it so I Googled a recipe. This is what Learning Herbs had to say:


>Boil some water
>Grate some fresh Ginger (yes, it looks hella crazy) into the boiling hot water.
>Simmer for 15-20 minutes.
>Add Lemon & Honey to taste
Drink up and let all the healing properties take effect!
