Sometimes I forget about how much Puffy was just about everywhere back in the mid-late 902s. It's rare that KRS-One links up with anyone in the mainstream, so him allowing for a Bad Boy Remix for any track was a shock. "Step Into A World" was a huge hit for KRS, and honestly, the original is better than this remix. But you still hear that pretty frequently. When's the last time you gave the Puff Daddy version a spin though? This is about as close as it gets to KRS selling out, but still [...]
Banner Designed by Cysquatch Welcome to "Question of the Week," a (not really at all) weekly debate amongst the MetalSucks staff regarding a recent hot button issue. Inspired by the ongoing disaster that is Lou Reed & Metallica's Lulu, this week we asked our writers: BESIDES METALLICA AND LOU REED, WHAT IS THE WORST COLLABORATION [...]
13 years and about 4 names later, and this is still probably the best thing Sean Diddy Combs has ever done. Song was on Puffy's 1998 album "No Way Out," and it brings me back to when I use to cruise the streets on my bmx bike and run tetherball at recess. So light up a Jeffrey and take a trip back in time Puff Daddy - "It's All About The Benjamins (Remix) Feat. Lil' Kim, The Lox & Notorious B.I.G."
Filed under: Exclusive , The Hit List Every good protest needs a soundtrack, and though these turbulent times may have inspired mostly escapist pop about dance floor decadence, we live in a post-iPod era where the [...]

Hey Berliners! I am now going to give to you a tip about an underground club and a trashy party series. The club is called Backyard and is situated in the heart of Kreuzberg, at Gitschinerstr. 22 near the U-bahn stations Prinzenstr. and Moritzplatz. There are two floors, an interesting crowd and a very friendly atmosphere. This party series is called Last Days and it "celebrates [...]
Last Saturday afternoon, tennis legend Roger Federer and eventual champion Novak Djokovic battled in perhaps the most entertaining match of the year in the US Open men's semifinals. The momentum swung back and forth between the two, and Djokovic's remarkable comeback was highlighted by one of the greatest (or luckiest) shots of all time. It was therefore fitting that every time CBS cut to a shot of the seats where Djokovic's friends and family were taking in the action, the viewers at home were treated to the "there's no way that's actually him" image of Diddy cheering like [...]
It's a scientifically proven fact that Cassie Ventura is 100% AMAZING. While it's true that the New London-born goddess (CT pride!) doesn't quite have the vocal chops to rival, well, any of her contemporaries (let's keep it real: Cassie live is bad news bears ), it's the Bad Boy crooner's Earth-shatteringly sexy, barely-there delivery that makes each one of her songs tingle with sensuous swagga. Her two major singles alone-"Me & U" and "Long Way 2 Go"-utterly decimate entire discographies of lesser pop stars hogging the airwaves on [...]
It seems that all over the college sports landscape nowadays, all we hear about are conference realignments, TV deals, advertising packages, and student athlete sponsor scandals. Somewhere along the lines, the good old fashioned spirit of the game got lost in the shuffle and with that came the sad realization that these young athletes are mere pawns in a much wider international game of economics. Regardless of what side of Lee County you set your allegiance or which color lucky underwear you wear on game day, let's all remind ourselves about what the whole 'Hullabaloo' is about in the first [...]
Following yesterday's stunning announcement that Jack White had collaborated with Insane Clown Posse our thoughts turned to other oddball musical pairings. For this week's B List, we polled the Hidden Track staff and compiled a list of ten of the oddest musical collaborations. Here's what we came up with... 10. Phish and Jay-Z It's well documented that Phish loves to cross genres and play with guests, but when Trey Anastasio introduced Jay-Z to the stage in Coney Island [...]
Following an impressive performance at Los Angeles' King King venue Cougar Microbes caught up with Little People for an improvised q&a. Over the past month or so we've been shooting emails back and forth to complete the interview. Check back here tomorrow for a Little People remix exclusive available here for you. Cougar Microbes: What [...]
Kanye West and Jay-Z will be releasing a collaborative album, Watch The Throne , which will arrive on August 8. They have had an illustrious run over the past decade or so. Kanye rose to fame as the producer of many of the most popular tracks on Jay-Z's classic album The Blueprint, including "Izzo (H.O.V.A.)," "Takeover" and "Heart of the City (Ain't No Love)." He later characterized his sound as "soul beats" - an appropriate moniker, given that many of his most well-known tracks are re-mixed samples of R&B and soul classics. This blend of R&B [...]
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 [...]
As we anxiously (and impatiently ) await a formal invitation to Missy Elliott's Block Party , we'll gladly settle for the iconic artist's Behind The Music premiere tomorrow night (10pm) instead. We like to think the "Take Ur Clothes Off" rapper finally responding to our pleading for new music by first guiding us on her journey to becoming the Supa Dupa Fly artist we've come to love. Jump below for not one, not two, but three previews of the music producer's [...]
Diddy, Swag, Whatever-The-Fuck and his production team aren't even trying anymore. Remember his videos featuring ludicrous backgrounds of CGI explosions and gravity-absent dancing? Those were the good days of gangsta promo yore - the contemporary state of the medium suggest we're in the midst of a Dark Age. "Looking for Love" is a prime example of the cultural deterioration that deserves no love. From the credits alone we can tell the "iconic" producer's ego has run wild once again. Bold director name-dropping and titling invade the opening shots - check yourself, man, this isn't a major [...]
Did P. Diddy just single-handedly kill one of the coolest words in my vocabulary? This is sooooo NOT swag.
As the world cowers in fear of the Great Retribution "about" to befall us, we have to wonder what we're so afraid of. Firstly: if everything is reduced to nothingness tomorrow, then our unexistenc
I love it when a plan comes together. Als je me wat beter kent, weet je dat ik zowel een zeer grote house als alternatieve muziekliefhebber ben, maar niet zo heel erg diep in de Urban, R&B en Hip-Hop zit. Maar toch is er ook wel het een en ander in dat genre waar ik wel degelijk van gecharmeerd ben. Ik was erg verrukt toen ik laatst een ontdekking deed die al deze muziekstijlen met elkaar verbond. En die ontdekking is Skylar Grey. En en Skylar Grey kennen jullie allemaal natuurlijk al. Niet? Nou, ik denk [...]
Impossibile elencare tutti i successi di Mary J. Blidge , vera e propria regina (finora incontrastata) dell' R&B, con più di quaranta milioni di copie vendute, nove Grammy Awards vinti, una serie quasi imbarazzante di prime posizioni raggiunte in classifica e una pletora di collaborazioni che testimoniano il prestigio e la stima di cui gode anche nell'ambiente musicale. A due anni dal precedente lavoro in studio ("Stronger with Each Tear", del 2009) esce il prossimo 20 settembre "My life II, the journey continues", dodicesimo capitolo (contando anche la reissue di "No more drama") della sua [...]
