Mixtape - QuESt "Broken Headphones"

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.

No Posts?

Sorry for the lack of posts. I've been working on a new blog and getting all the kinks out.

You'll know what I'm comfortable with you knowing.

Video - Kanye West Feat. Mos Def "Two Words"

I am not posting this up.

I don't care if Kanye just threw it up on his blog and those stills from "Spaceship" surfaced the other day, this video is old.

OLD.

And I hate using caps.

iTunes released this over two years ago; stop acting like it's new. You can look it up on youtube and see for yourself.

I thought people knew about this rap shit. Leave it to a white boy...

"i want you to feel like my stepfather felt me"
"well this is called ass rape and we're filming the jail scene"

I thought only Em and Dre had copies of the album. Anyways, pretty big day just because of this. And the fact that I'm done with exams, bitch.
