Hawdwerk & Jansport J: The Common Ground


Hawdwerk, Jansport J, Poetik Force, El Prez & DNEZ all it tear up on stage at The Common Ground. The whole set is live. The performance for WOW was just... the epitome of the word live. Hawdwerk & Jansport continue to kill the west coast. If you have downloaded High Power Moves or bought a physical copy (for only 11$) then please, do yourself a favor and familiarize yourself with HPM.

Mos Def: Tim Westwood Interview


This whole interview is just classic. Mos Def never fails to shock me. I never thought I'd hear him say the words "I like gucci" but his whole philosophy is something everyone needs to take into account and really consider the co-existence of both the pop side of hip hop as well as the soul side. On another note... did anybody else know that Tim is 52?

Lupe Fiasco: Just The Facts [PSA]


This was released about an hour ago from LupeFiasco.com by ...you guessed it, Lupe Fiasco.

Hi guys...Lupe Here...
There seems to be a lot...A LOT...of misconception and misguided info floating around the net...so for the sake of clarity and so that everyone (HOPEFULLY) will be on the same page let me reaffirm and debunk some things and just turn down the general noise that is surrounding Lupe Fiasco...thats me...

My Third Album is Titled "LASERS" not "WE ARE LASERS" or "LUPE.N.D."...

MY NEXT ALBUM IS NOT TITLED "LUPE.N.D."...

"LASERS" is NOT my last and final album...

"LASERS" does NOT drop in 2009...

"LASERS" does NOT HAVE A RELEASE DATE YET...

"SOLAR MIDNITE" is NOT a single off of "LASERS"...Nor was it intended to be apart of "LASERS" project...

"SOLAR MIDNITE" was exclusively done at the request of the Twilight: New Moon Team to be apart of their film, motion picture soundtrack and as a vehicle to promote the film...NOT TO PROMOTE "LASERS"...

I produced "SOLAR MIDNITE"

I'm not SELLING OUT by doing a song for NEW MOON...

People thought I "SOLD OUT" when I did "Kick, Push"...

I LOVE "SOLAR MIDNITE"...

"SOLAR MIDNITE" is NOT a HIP-HOP RECORD...

I've done ROCK or ROCK-like records on all of my previous albums...i.e. "The Instrumental" "Hello/Goodbye"...

I HAVE A PUNK BAND CALLED JAPANESE CARTOON WHICH I SING IN AND PRODUCE FOR...I DO NOT GO BY "LUPE FIASCO" WHEN I DO SONGS WITH JAPANESE CARTOON...NOR PERCIVAL FATS!!!...I USE MY REAL NAME...

Enemy Of The State was NOT, NOT, NOT meant to be an album...so stop (to the ungrateful among you) TREATING it like one...

Enemy Of The State was short for a reason...I DONT LIKE TO WASTE SONGS...AND IT SHOULDN'T TAKE YOU THAT LONG TO PROVE YOUR NICE IF YOUR "REALLY" NICE...

ENEMY OF THE STATE WAS WATERED DOWN ON PURPOSE...BECAUSE ITS NOT AN ALBUM...

MOST OF ENEMY OF THE STATE WAS DONE IN ONE DAY...

IF YOU DONT HEAR IT FROM ME OR DJ BUSY IT MAY NOT BE THE COMPLETE TRUTH!!!

Its more noise out there and stupid rumor but I really don't have the stamina...

FNF UP...

Lupe Fiasco - Solar Midnite

Rickie Jacobs x XV- The Questions

Here's an unreleased track from Rickie Jacobs and XV that was supposed to be featured on XV's Planet Squaria mixtape but apparently Rickie Jacobs didn't make the final cut. 2 years later Rickie found the original session. This joint is nice and layed back though, still sounds fresh to today.
