Adair hit us up with this new track and I had no idea what to expect. Best way to describe it is just like they did to us: "Yes, that is Lady Gaga in the intro.Yes, that is dubstep in the bridge. Yes, he is rapping with a chip on his shoulder." Gotta love that straight hip-hop mixed in with some heavy dub step. The mixtape, "Michael & Me" drops June 25, 2012 so keep an ear out in the mean time as we expect big things. Keep up to date at the fbook page, listen to more [...]
Since the eight of us here at BGB have varying tastes in our favorite flavor of music, we've decided to each put together a Top 10 list of our favorite go-to jams for 2011. We'll each post our own list every day up until new years. Here's a little taste of what we (Luke and A.Koos) have been listening to throughout 2011 . We tried to get a nice mixture together , but it was mad difficult to cut it down to just 10 (there's 11), so [...]
Since the eight of us here at BGB have varying tastes in our favorite flavor of music, we've decided to each put together a Top 10 list of our favorite go-to jams for 2011. We'll each post our own list every day up until new years. Here's a little taste of my favorites throughout 2011 . I'm allll about a nice beat, whether it be hip hop, techno or dubstep (not that dub/robotsex/fingernails on a chalkboard noise... that hurts to listen to). I tried to get [...]

I just recently became familiar with Adair Lion when a friend showed me his music video for his song "Sicka Than Yo Average" that samples Biggie on the hook. That song really caught my ear and then out of nowhere today, he drops a track with RTV favorite PropaneLV on it for his weekly "Wreck-it Wednesdays" series. A series that focus solely on spitting bar after bar with no hooks. Produced DJ Frank-DuX, both emcees come correct on this. Download: Adair Lion – Work It Out Feat. [...]
South Texas native Adair Lion & his Above The Notes crew originally grabbed some ears with the absolutely filthy track "Sicka Than Yo Average", which was supported by some Rex Arrow visuals and followed up by an impressive and diverse series. This past week, Lion rolled out his latest full length compilation, with the For The Love Of... mixtape, a 22-track bit that exhibits the diversity of hip hop / pop / and r&b sounds that's been put forth by the young crew over the past few months.

The most successful of mashup artists, Girl Talk amongst all others, can take live performances to a certain level with nothing more than energy and a laptop, but this "scrumming" thing takes live musical blends to a potentially new level. DJ Frank Dux & tDOTace are members of the El Paso-based Above The Notes musical crew, headed by emerging artist Adair Lion who together have swooped up some cred through a few great tracks & Rex Arrow -created footage. I'd see this over a grizzled hipster with a computer any day, [...]
DIRTY. Came across this a couple weeks ago, but we didn't give it a good listen till now. Adair Lion graduated from UT Austin, and his creativity and flow are up there with the best. Wouldn't be surprised to see a lot more of this dude in the near future. "Little mama you ain't gotta get a boob job, just treat your booty like an RB treat a football. Keep it high and tight, and away from trouble. Now I'm the end zone, drop it down, no fumble." [...]
