Accompanied by a weird video, "Sins" is a straightforward hip-hop song, based around a hook listing the seven deadly sins. The beat is the best part of this song, but none of the emcees step up to this track. This is a shame, cause I know that they are capable of better verses (on tracks like "Say Goodnight"). The hook is a too bland for me, I can get behind an anti-chorus, but this one breaks up the song too much for me. That all said, this could easily slot into your hip hop playlist or played at the next [...]
Director Jamie Caliri was given free reign to make the video for The Shins, "The Rifle's Spiral" as awesome as can be. The result is an odd stop motion short narrative, that plays off like a dark Tim Burton creation. If anyone has Nintendo 3DS, you can check out an alternate 3D version of the video. Port of Morrow is everywhere now. The Shins - "The Rifle's Spiral"

Yesterday's "Saddest Cities" list pulled the cover off the notion that Florida's all sun and fun but that doesn't mean there aren't rays of hope and light shining from the [...]

BIG S.I.N. ft. Lin Que " Laugh Now, Cry Later " (prod. by Jackel Hyde ): Listening to S.I.N. now is mad comforting. He was one of the cats I fucked with BEFORE I started rockthedub, which means I've been a fan his shit for about 6 years or so! S.I.N. and Lin go hard over this one – well, Lin goes in but she only flips the chorus, while S.I.N. takes center stage and gets his march on to these tight snares and throwback horns. Jackel! He stays doing it. Be on the lookout for [...]

Big S.I.N. " The Illest Man Alive " (prod. by Jackel Hyde ): S.I.N. is always consistent. This cats flow always kills me – he's no nonsense, and attacks the beat the same way – with furious anger and a smirk on the side. The samples in this are wild – Hyde threw in some vintage vibes in the background, nice to rock to. This cut will not only be featured on homey's The Best of Big S.I.N. mixtape (which drops this month), but will also be found on S.I.N.'s The Soul Of Henrock [...]

Big S.I.N. " Keep Your Eye On The Sparrow " (prod. by Joe Burn Em ): Feels like it's been a long minute since S.I.N. has hit me with some new music, so I welcomed this throwback-flex he hit me with the other day. S.I.N. gets in the pocket with his flow and doesn't let go, for good or ill sometimes, but he keeps it fun and interesting and real in every track. This is some shit your moms might need to rock to, forreal. S.I.N.'s State of Emergency is due out in March, so blast [...]
