I finally checked out the Black Keys’ hip hop project BlackRoc and immediately fell for it. They back up everyone from Mos Def and Q-Tip to RZA and Ludacris. “Ain’t Nothing Like You” is a good example of the the more riff-oriented tracks on the record. Combine the forceful, stomping riffs of the Black Keys [...]

"The Twilight Saga: New Moon" opened up to a record-busting weekend, bringing in over $140 million over the weekend (making it the third-largest film opening of all time, behind "Spider-Man 3" and "The Dark Knight").

Ever since my initiation into what this crew is about, via M9's High Fidelity, I have yet to be disappointed with any aspect of a single one of this crews releases thus far. Their longplayer's soundscapes are by and large an ode to Boom Baps time of greatness. A supreme collection of beats either taken from, inspired by, or akin to, what many call 'The Golden Age'. But what makes all these releases...

According to his Twitter, Curren$y linked up with Mos Def last night to make this quick little number, "Breakfast." Although it is poorly mixed, Mos still brought some smooth and jazzy production to the table. And Curren$y, who many know for his guest verses on several Lil' Wayne mixtapes, flows over the horns-laden beat with ease. Perhaps this is just a teaser of what's to come from Mos...
