Had to do it. Here's a playlist of some of my favorite West Coast tracks, mostly from the G-Funk era. When people think West Coast, this is some of the stuff they'll hear playing in their head. I hope you enjoy this gangsta sh*t. 11/5 - Brousin' The Luniz - Playa Hata Watts Gangstas - Fuct in the Game [...]

Our SoundKlout series is all about finding the best artists SoundCloud has to offer. Each day we'll spotlight a handful of good music from a selected SoundClouder. If you know anyone that needs noticing, make sure to hit us up with a few of theirs tracks. Wick-it takes my two favorite styles on SoundCloud, dubstep & mashups, and remixes pop classics all the way down to the underground hip-hop. I do prefer his mashup skills over his dubstep ones, but it's good to see someone [...]

What it do internets, this is ya boy JohnG aka somejerk from Miami , once again bringing you, our beloved reader, hand picked, tried and tested quality moombahton, moombahcore, moombahsoul and moombawhateverthefuckelse people are making within the allotted 100-110bpm universe. I'm going to let the music do most of the talking this time around, so hit play, download, like, share and whatever else will further perpetuate the moombah-virus. Tonight, Takeovr is going to have mother fucking Dillon Francis DJing and it's a pretty big deal. Besides being the 100th [...]

Picture an anxious Dave Nada just about to step behind the decks of a lil cuzz's basement house party in the suburbs of summer DC. It's a school day, but the kids are out and a handful of brews have them wasted as fuck wildin' out to dead reggaeton beats. But Dave, 1 half of Nadastrom, plays house. A genre opposite in the bpm spectrum, with a whole different groove and attitude. The last thing on his mind is clearing a dancefloor and imploding the spicy vibes of a sweaty basement filled with jail [...]
Remember the 1987 R&B dance single "Why You Treat Me So Bad?" by Club Nouveau ? The single charted #39 on the Billboard Hot 100 on the merit of the melodic hook and signature keyboard and rhythmic arrangement. If the name still doesn't ring a bell, perhaps it would be best to put the song into context with the numerous artists who have sampled it on their own hit singles. First, you should listen to Club Nouveau's "Why You Treat Me So Bad?" right here . Maybe you'd be more [...]

Bass bass bass! Nothin' like some banging dubstep. All of you lovers of the low end will get a nice serving with these tracks. Nero has added some wobbles to their repitoire and it's awesome. Wick-it the Instigator is always one to pull through with great remixes and this is no exception. I've included a brand new NiT GriT track in the bonus and it's definitely one you don't want to miss. Nero- The Way You Make Me Feel [...]

Nashville's Wick-It the Instigator always brings a fresh sound to the table. Check out his latest remix and try and tell me he doesn't know how to turn a hip-hop song into a total banger. A nice drumstep addition to a classic hip-hop beat, shit gets real at 1:45. Download: Luniz - I Got 5 On It (Wick-it Remix) [Audio clip: view full post to listen]

There's a lot to like about this new Wick-it the Instigator remix of the Luniz classic, "I Got 5 On It". This of course has always been a laid back anthem celebrating the ritual of bros piling some change together for a $10 bag of greenery. Wick-it says fuck all that and flips entire thing on its head. It sounds like dubstep, but it's not. It's drumstep, whatever the hell that is. Does this give James Blake the green light to start making post drumstep tracks that nobody gets now? I hope not. Overall [...]

Look at what today is. Don't act like you haven't been waiting for this day all year. Some stoners call this the Christmas for stoners. I smoke but don't consider it that. But I do enjoy a few more joints, bong rips, and water falls today more than others. It's not a complete 4.20 without a ton of marijuana music. I have compiled a few classic marijuana tracks and smoke friendly mixtapes for you guys to enjoy today for both the P&P and HMJ readers . Enjoy your 4.20, be safe, and don't forget to [...]

The homies over at Top Billin have been posting their favorite DnB versions of hip hop songs so I thought I'd share mine. I love how it transitions from an identifiable hip hop track with a little shuffle to a DnB song around the 1:40 mark. That's always a fun moment for dancefloors.

I love it wen folks rep their city. Those who've let it permeate every piece of them till they're inseparable from it. Locality and region in music are getting lost more and more in the shuffle of today's Viacom/Clear Channel fed generation. Things are sounding the same. Regional colloquialisms are getting edged. New rappers seem to adopt the accent of whoever is on top of the charts. Many producers are copies of a copy. Shit is outta control. I don't say this to say its all bad. There are a lot of good things going on; you [...]

We are doing Golden Bloggen Nights Part 2 at the Mandrake this Sunday. If you couldn't make it out last week don't worry. This week will be bigger and better. We have live performances from some Up-and-Coming L.A. Hip-Hop groups and of course I will be on the Wheels of Steel. I know none of y'all hot work on Monday cuz of Martin Luther King Day so come party with your boy Keyvon aka Kool Ethan. We'll be there from 9PM-Midnight. And enjoy this mash-up and mix in the meantime. Kool Ethan - Grindin 4 Pleasure [...]

When's the last time you ate something so delicious that it completely changed your mood? You took the first bite and the next thing you know you start doing a little dance? Well, I'm happy to report that I just had one of those moments. If you didn't know, I'm gluten-free and I have a major sweet tooth, sometimes tasty desserts are hard to come by (or at least a variety of them, unfortunately I'm getting a tad sick of Giant Eagle's Chocolate Gelato, even though it is damn good!). What did I eat you ask? A chocolate cupcake from [...]
