ALTHOUGH only released in 2006 but recorded almost a decade before, Darc Mind's long-awaited, almost forgotten album was still a breath of fresh air. Originally recorded between 1995 and 1997 for Loud Records, the New York label went bust and Symptomatic Of A Greater Ill never saw the light of day recently, when Anticon unearthed it and put it out to a muted response. But the Darc Mind duo of rapper Kevroc and producer X-Ray are two treasures that had to be found. Kevroc's rap style is a laid back one, but with metronome-sharp timing, instrumental old-school [...]
Robin Daily is a Vancouver native but took Music Business & Production Emphasis in Nashville, Ten A Key. He made it quite clear with his first project that his sound was experimental and darker than the rest of the "Trap" that has been coming out in the past year. I personally wouldn't completely call him "Trap" but a experimental darker southern style of it. Four months ago he released his first project " optx " which had 2 great original pieces and 3 remixes including a very interesting take on Led Zeppelin's " No Quarter " & TI & Bun B's [...]
At some point, possibly within the next lifetime, if not in mine, people will probably look back at the gay-marriage debate and ask, " What were they thinking?" That gays were once legally barred from calling their civil unions "marriage" will seem as unfathomable as the idea of women not being able to vote or a world without Facebook. In the meantime, the debate continues, with some unexpected players popping up on both sides. President Barack Obama and the First Lady Michelle Obama have been openly endorsing it at least since last year's National Democratic Convention [...]
Go shawwwty, it's ya birthday. 50 Cent has been added as a late headliner for this years X-Games joining dance producer Zedd. The German electro house producer has most recently remixed Australian Indie Dance act Empire Of The Sun and their first single off their sophomore album 'Ice on the Dune' titled 'Alive'. The remix has been met with fanfare in the dance community and consequently been a positive impact on the booking by X-Games. The Hip Hop star and producer are set to hit the stage at the festival between May 16 to May 19 [...]

Headlining the X Games concert series is hip-hop star 50 Cent who will join Zedd , along with Spanish-favorite NACH, on Saturday the 18th. 50 Cent has been one mainstream artist who has kept his distance from the bubbling electronic scene, but he will finally unite with a dance music young gun this weekend.

No human being will ever put "Victory" in a body bag the way Frank White did, especially with his first verse . But Lloyd Banks came near the ballpark. The record remains a classic for three reasons. 1. 50, in 2004, was at the peak of his powers. And his intro verse was the perfect set up for Banks, one of the premiere "punchline" rappers during an age when a high quality punchline meant damn near everything in rap. 2. Who gives a shit if it's [...]
Fake social media followers have been getting a new wave of media attention due to the research of Andrea Stroppa and Carlo De Micheli as reported by the NY Times. Now they're saying 50 Cent and Diddy have fake followers as do a number of big brands and politicians. However, only one reporter seems to have seen the research or the list and she shares relatively little information which seems rather odd. Last month a post on a NY Times blog titled " Fake Twitter Followers Become Multimillion-Dollar Business " got quite a [...]

El festival se distingue ya que gracias a su importancia y cercanía con Los Ángeles se ha convertido en un evento en el que toda la escena rock de dicha ciudad californiana visita el festival.

Is it so wrong to suggest that this, the first recording heard in quite some time of Josh Homme's Queens of the Stone Age – a band that effortlessly; endlessly exudes badass – sounds strikingly redolent of 50 Cent's P.I.M.P.? Obviously the trashy rap track in question is, well, utter claptrap by comparison though at the core of My God Is The Sun is this incisive guitar line which proves immediately evocative of Fiddy's purported finest. It's then enwrapped in rampant tambourines, an incendiary chorus, zippy fretwork, Homme's typically lethargic, bloodshot slur and all other manner of invigorating intimations of [...]

For any sub-category of notable humans with above-average amounts of wealth, Forbes has written a list ranking those notable humans in order of accumulated wealth. Their latest list focuses on the five top-earning hip-hop moguls of 2013 . Why only five? Well, so they can do a completely different list of the Top 10 hip-hop moguls later this year. Diddy (Forbes helpfully informs us he "rose to mainstream fame in the late 1990s rapping about his desire for Benjamins, otherwise known as $100 bills") is in the #1 [...]

Check out Fifty's new visual with for his single ' We Up' featuring Kendrick Lamar. Street King Immortal is coming soon.
Definitely glad to see this track got a video. This is that good 50 , where he just flows naturally and delivers addictive melodies throughout his verses and hooks. I feel like that's been missing for years. I've been listening to this on loop since I first heard it on illRoots Radio: Volume 3 . It's got a real lowkey vibe but with that deep hunger that you only hear in hip hop.. it's that hustler's mentality. -daNk

Fif's Street King Immortal album is still slated to drop sometime this year. ( [...]
