Mixtape - Asher Roth "Seared Foie Gras with Quince and Cranberry"

I've promised myself to start blogging again and maybe this will kick-start it. I'll be reviewing this come next Thursday for the Daily Tar Heel.

I'm definitely feeling "Vagitables" where he goes in over some Little Brother/9th Wonder.

Who needs an album reviewied?

Check out the Daily Tar Heel today. Especially peep the Blueprint 3 and Tabloids reviews. Solid work if I do say so.

Also, there's a weekly mixtape post I do on the blog every Thursday, so check that out too.

Jay-Z v. Kanye West - The Showdowns

I know this is the second Kanye-cameo related post in a very short time period, but this is a nice look back at all the songs Jay and 'Ye have been featured on together and who wins each round.

I've been looking forward to this. It's got some nice guests with Outasight and XV too. Not that QuESt needs them.

Kanye's 10 Best Scene-Stealing Guest Verses

Complex just put together a pretty nice list of moments of Kanye's self-professed genius. It's only based on rap songs, so his steller R&B verses get left off.

Check out the article here.

Also, read the comments for the heated defending of Slum Village. Pretty funny. I think Elzhi has some disciples.

Conair remixes Reading Rainbow for first single off EP

Conair got his Bandcamp up a while back and has got the first track from his Child Hood EP posted.

The entire EP - tentatively scheduled for an August release - will consist of children's television program's remixed theme songs from Con's own upbringing.

"Take My Word For It" is the first single and features a flipped Reading Rainbow theme. Plus, there's a pretty sharp criticism of emcees and proper grammer usage in the verses.
