House Of Wallenberg is the moniker of Swedish producer Peter Wallenberg - after his previous single "legendary" that featured the resurrection of Swedish rap diva Leila K - he returns with a new single "Be My Lover" (which you can listen to and watch over at PSL ) + new EP "Legends" (to be released November 23rd) which is a prelude to the release of his debut album with the same name dropping April 2013. On the album he has worked with choice Swedish vocalists such as Efti, Leila K and rapper Mapei along with other guest artists [...]
Mapei has been quite quiet since her EP "Cocoa Butter Diaries" dropped on Downtown and since she appeared on 'Mary Jane' from Major Lazer's album debut "Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do", both from 2009. She even was replaced by Robyn on 'Cardiac Arrest' when the Teddybears' "Devli's Music" album was re-released for the American [...]
We Swedes have been getting pretty used to get the royal treatment from Marcus Price by now esp. we over here in Stockholm with clubs like SÅS etc. the last year. If your not familiar with the name Marcus Price at all, perhaps you recognize his productions on Mapei's 'Video Vixen' or Maluca's 'Hector' and his 'Mat Bira Kvinnor Weed' (which earned the #1 spot in Juno's Funky/Garage charts) that he did together with Carli earlier this year accompanied by one of the biggest eyesore of all time. But things are about to change, because now it's time [...]

So Valentine's Day is around the corner and this year is a fresh year. I don't need flowers or candy and shit cause I'm gonna be kickin' it with my independent women parts 1 AND 2. Every fucking year it's always like boo hoo, being single sucks. You know what? I don't even want to have to think about what shit to pick out for someone. If I had my way, a boy would be like, I picked you up McDonald's and brought over the entire first season of Freaks and Geeks. You ready to chill? And you know that's [...]
So here is a picture of me jamming out on a light up tambourine at Korean karaoke... January has been a shitty month. All the shits happen in January. It's cold, the number of crazies who've stumbled in to work far outweigh the cute and fun people, and to top things off, I need to go to the dentist. Sometimes I hate my life. But I find myself at 6:20am bored out of my mind and playing music way too loud. The one good thing about this year so far? The jams. January and so far February have [...]
I had heard of Mapei awhile ago, but never took much notice to her music. I was wrong to do so, seeing as she is extraordinary. Mapei is a hip-hop/electronic/club/pop artist from Stockholm, Sweden, and hasn't really had that much exposure, from what I have seen, and has actually been out for quite awhile. She reminds me a lot of Kid Sister, and dare I say she may even be better? Don't get me wrong, I love Kid Sis, but Mapei's flow is much more smooth and her overall tone is just more gritty. [...]

Mapei’s Cocoa Butter Diaries is an interesting mix of hip hop, jazz, and house music. The Swedish rapper combines her cleverly astute rhymes with technotic hip-hop beats. It’s definitely something you could jam to at a rave. But it also makes you think, with lyrics like, “We can say what’s on our [...]

The US military rescued him and repurposed experimental lazers as prosthetic limbs. Since then Major Lazer has been a hired renegade soldier for a rogue government operating in secrecy underneath the [...]
Calling Mapei the postmodern baby of a Soulja Boy-Santogold-MF Doom-Lisa Lopez - Snoop Dogg orgy is probably pretty sacrilegious, but damn, that's what I'm hearing. MAPEI - LEADER OF THE PACK (ALT) MAPEI - ALL THE YOUNG CHILDREN ON CRACK (ALT)
Stockholm Sweden's baddest bitch Mapei is a natural on the mic. She raps and sings in front of heavy fat beats. She's been getting attention from many different camps, from electro fans to strict hip-hop heads. No matter what you are you should take a listen. Serious attitude, bad bitch, gotta love it. Mapei - Pretty Girls **** FUCKING JAM Ghostface Killa - "Charlie Brown feat. Mapei (Dj Mehdi Remix)" [thanks to RadioMilwaukee] [...]
Два выдающихся продюсера Diplo и Switch решили объединиться под нескромным названием Major Lazer . Вот уже несколько месяцев они диджеят вместе и вместе же долизывают дебютный альбом Guns Don’t Kill People - Lazers Do , который обещают выпустить 16 июня этого года на Downtown Records . Вы будете "удивлены", но на запись альбома пригласили таких "неочевидных" гостей, как M.I.A. и Santigold (да-да, раньше ее звали Santogold , но после того, как она узнала, что уже есть некий Santo Gold , решила без лишнего юридического шума сменить имя).
