Wow. That word "defunct" really bothered me. I actually tried to keep it going in Vox world but it didn't have past one person (Hey Sista Idadi). I might have to start doing it again just on principle!

Baker's Dozen: Summer In The City
Inspired by KB's now defunct meme. Here are the RULES: You have to come up with twelve thoughts and one picture (totaling 13) to describe your weekend. Try using quotes, events, links to blog entries and websites, etc. 01. The weekend weather in Camden, N.J. was gorgeous -- 80 degrees, low humi...
Another example of Kanyezzy keeping the best beats for himself. Be was hot because of the beats combined with Common's lyrics. Graduation is going to outsell Finding Forever just based on the hotness of Ye' beats. I'm looking forward to both of them. Until then the official mixtape stays in constant rotation.

The Graduates
Chi-City mavericks Kanye West and Common have unveiled their new videos for their singles "Can't Tell Me Nothin'" and "The Game," respectively. K-Wizzle's tune is the lead single from his highly-anticipated third disc, Graduate (due late August), while Com's kick-off track is from his set, Find...
I'd add:
"Hey Joe" by Jimi Hendrix
"Arco Arena" by Cake
"Crazy Train" by Ozzy
I played this game for the first time on Saturday. Now I may wait for GH2 to actually pick it up.

too much is never enough
You know you're playing too much Guitar Hero when you see the Arena Rock Essentials at the iTunes Music Store and think, "Dude, I totally need to buy that." Afterthought: If you could pick three songs for Guitar Hero II, what would they be? I'd pick: Money by Pink Floyd Miserlou by Dick Dale O...

I remember this interview because of the part when he said he listened to The White Stripes and old Jungle Brothers more than anything. It's how I discovered who they were!!!
Questo is the real. I've been digging those cats since Organix.
Yeah, it goes without sayin' -- the Roots are indeed the best rap group/band in the history of hip-hop. Yeah, I know, the hip-hop intellectuals would disagree and cite Stetsasonic and others. But pound for pound, the Roots and Quest Love have trescended the genre of rap in ways that, unfortunately, goes unappreciated by most rap fans.

A Diatribe Called Quest
I stumbled upon this old interview with the Roots mastermind Questlove. It was conducted in 2003 by journalist-turned-BET personality Touré for online magazine Believer. I don't know if any other bloggers linked this interview up besides Soulmind, but it's recommended reading. This piece featur...
Thanks for playing!
