Here's a nice chill mashup from Frail Limb Purity. I was actually surprised how well the vocals work on Treasure Fingers' remix to Miike Snow's'Animal'. Give it a listen and download below and show FLP some love on Facebook!

This feels like the kind of topic that is bound spark some debate. Bronx, NY DJ Rob Dinero recently generated a couple of mashup tracks that feature instrumentals from Watch The Throne paired with choice verses from rap legends The Notorious B.I.G. and 2Pac . Looking back over the epic album and subsequent tour that Jay-Z and Kanye West embarked on last year, it seems logical that people would speculate about what Biggie and Pac might be doing in music if they were still alive today. While these aren't [...]

Filming starts in March somewhere in the Middle East.

Last week we posted the music video to Travi$ Scott's hit track "Lights" (Love Sick). I loved it so much that I had to find more from this Houston rapper. Not much is out there from him...yet! Although, what I did find of him will amaze everyone. I only came across three tracks of his but [...]

Now that he's no longer touring with Jay-Z as The Throne, Kanye West has plenty of free time on his ... Read the full article at http://www.prefixmag.com/news/ kanye-west-working-on-short-fi lm-in-middle-east/61286/

New freestyle from Common, on Cosmic Kev's Come Up Show, spitting over Jay-Z's "Streets Is Watching" and French's "Shot Caller".

Filed under: News Jonathan Short, AP Florence Welch doesn't need to watch those ' Hangover ' movies -- while she's on tour, she lives them. Consider a recent trip to New York City, where she turned into Florence the Drinking Machine, left a tea light burning overnight and nearly burned down the Bowery Hotel . "I think I must have had about 17 dirty martinis," the Florence and the Machine singer [...]

For better or for worse, UK-based music magazine NME has rolled out its shortlist of nominees for its 2012 NME Awards. Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Adele each earned noms across the various irreverent categories — some more forgiving than others. ( Born This Way and Under the Mistletoe both came in under Worst Album, oof!) Also scoring nods were newcomers Lana Del Rey and Azealia Banks and awards veterans Coldplay, The Throne and Katy Perry. See the full list of 2012 NME Award nominees below. The winners [...]

Let me be the one to start (or join in on) the slow clap for Nike Basketball's #KobeSystem campaign. In their newest clip, the multi-billion dollar company did the impossible [...]

What the F*&k does that mean, Kobe Bryant?

You're Welcome.

I've never been a Kobe fan, a Kobe hater actually if I'm really being honest. But this ad campaign is awesome, Nike always kills it and the Kobe System ads have some major cameos from Tony Robbins to Jerry Rice, and Aziz Ansari. The latest features Kanye. Enjoy

Kanye gets frustrated with the Kobe Bryant System in this new promo from Nike. Great stuff. -daNk

Well, then I touched him. There was that. But I will get to that later. It was big. It was brash. It was LOUD. It was fun. We weren't with 'our people'. But we were dazzled, enraptured. We were having fun. Big balls of flaming fun. As they say, haters gotta hate, but Kanye West is a unique and singular talent. As my love for anything hip hoppy had diminished since the days of De La Soul and Public Enemy I honestly never thought I would be at a show like this. At a packed Sydney Entertainment [...]

We all know I hate Best of Lists that come out before the year is over so nearly 4 weeks into 2012 I finally present my best albums of 2011! (Still a day faster than last year !) Below are the top 10 albums from my 2011 followed by 10 honorable mentions. The list was compiled by weighing total play counts along with longevity. Not only did I listen to it a lot, but was I still reaching for it months after the honeymoon phase. These are those albums. Since I can't be bothered to rank these [...]
