During Fun Fest weekend, we had the chance to sit down and speak with electro beat makers Ratatat. Duo Mike Stroud and Evan Mast were a tad bit on the sleepy side early in the morning, but we still managed to discuss some things we thought you guys would like to know. Hopefully you'll find out something new about the band if you're a fan. Follow the jump for full interview. ATH: You guys have been quoted as saying that the new LP was [...]
Hokay, so thanks to Rainn Wilson's twitter, I was alerted to the fact that Bill Cosby had released a rap album not more than two days ago. The album is called State of Emergency and was recorded way back in 2008, which is perhaps why it's not getting as much press as I'd thought it'd be. Excited beyond belief, I headed over to Bill Cosby's website to join the mailing list and receive the free mp3
When I hear the words "Bill Cosby" and "hip-hop," I immediately think of that classic Cosby Show episode where Theo and Cockroach perform a rap song about Julius Caesar.
Here's something you probably never thought you would read: Bill Cosby has made a hip-hop album. Here's something else you probably never thought you would read: Appearing on said hip-hop album will be the likes of Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, LL Cool J, William Patterson, and the late Miles Davis. Yes, this is indeed what will be happening when the legendary comedian drops Bill Cosby Presents the Cosnarati: State of Emergency , a 14-track effort designed to bring awareness and social consciousness to troubling issues in hip-hop culture. But don't worry, [...]
So I reluctantly stumbled upon Bill Cosby's rap album and got inspired to write a letter to the good doctor. Here, read. "Dear Cos, I see what you're trying to do over there. You think you're slick, but I see you. Trying to be "hip" and getting on Twitter and putting out promos on Vimeo and uStream like all the cool kids do these days. Yeah, thought we didn't notice, but we see you. You, sir, are trying to be the change you want to see in the [...]
"Theo, get your ass down here, I'm 'bout to bust this freestyle!" Not a lot of people remember this line from a lost episode of The Cosby Show , but for the die-hards that have caught Dr. Cliff in the cipher, it should come as no surprise that Bill Cosby is dropping a hip-hop LP. According to AllHipHop , the album, entitled Bill Cosby Presents The Cosnarati: State Of Emergency , is set to drop both physically and digitally on November 24 and will be available through his own site, billcosby.com .

*Disclaimer = Click on everything in this post at your own risk If you ever sat back watching The Cosby Show on Nick at Nite and fantasized about the Huxtable residence's sexual activity behind closed doors, chances are you're a tad bit perverted.

It's been a long time, they shouldn't left you...without some ignorant shit to sit through. In actuality, Pikahsso fell victim to innernut snitching and had to take a short hiatus.

Covers , covers , covers . Who doesn't love a cover? I'll tell you--just about no one. Look at how excited people get when they hear about compilations where surprising covers of mainstream hits played by alternative artists appear or oldsters cover new songs or jazz people cover pop anthems or Cat Power covers anything . People cannot get enough. People also can't get enough of recording covers, even if it's a bad idea from the moment go. Nonetheless, these are committed to tape and I think I [...]
Looking for a more fashionable way to protect your laptop? Well why not pony up for a sweater cover? Davey Sommers repurposes old sweaters and gives them that jello pudding pop touch turning them into sweaters for your laptop . They fit comfortably around a 133 or 153 laptop and could stretch to get around a 173. And all for the low price of $20. I'm pretty sure this should be marketed as the iCosby. Who wouldn't want to jello pudding pop their life for only $20? [via If It's Hip, It's [...]

i hate when black people talk about the way other black people talk. you always hear somebody make fun of somebody who sounds "too white," and that's crazy to me. what is sounding white, anyway!? i never got it. if you grew up in the suburbs, most of which tend to have substantially less black people than areas closer to the city, and you went to a private school, most of which are more expensive and not very diverse, then the chances are, you will grow up to be a product of your environment.
