Songs on Pope Benedict XVI's MySpace playlist: Muse - "Uprising" Fleet Foxes - "He Doesn't Know Why" And, wait for it... 2Pac - "Changes" (Explicit version)

Songs among Pope Benedict XVI's MySpace playlist: Muse - "Uprising" Fleet Foxes - "He Doesn't Know Why" And, wait for it... 2Pac - "Changes" (Explicit version)

It seems that Pope Benedict XVI is choosing to side with the West Coast in the ongoing Biggie vs. Tupac beef that continues from beyond the grave. I'm surprised Papa Don't Preach didn't find it's way onto the Pope's iPod shuffle. Music from late rapper Tupac Shakur has been included as part of the Vatican's official MySpace Music playlist . The seat of the Catholic Church released a list of 12 songs onto the social networking Web site's streaming music service this week when the site launched in the United Kingdom.Among selections from Mozart, Muse [...]

Some stories are just too strange to pass up. According to CNN ... Music from late rapper Tupac Shakur has been included as part of the Vatican's official MySpace Music playlist. The seat of the Catholic Church released a list of 12 songs onto the social networking Web site's streaming music service this week when the site launched in the United Kingdom. Among selections from Mozart, Muse and Dame Shirley Bassey is the slain rapper's song "Changes," which was released two years after his shooting death on a greatest hits album in 1998. [...]

It’s safe to say that Pope Benedict didn’t curate the Vatican’s new MySpace celebrity playlist (I mean, U2 would’ve totally been on there ), but Vatican City clearly houses at least one DJ with eclectic tastes. To celebrate the launch of MySpace Music in the UK, the social networking site posted celebrity playlists by a handful of actual, human celebrities (Nelly Furtado, etc.), plus one curated by a city-state. Sure, Mozart made the cut, as did “Advocata Nostra” from the Pope’s first solo album (seriously), but then things get interesting: Fleet Foxes’ “He [...]

It's weeks like this one that demonstrate why I do OSM on Mondays. Like most working stiffs, Sunday night finds me trying to shake off the effects of the weekend (having kids now makes that more like shake off the crumbs from the weekend), and get prepared to drag my carcass into work the next morning. Hence, prepping a post on Sunday night isn't something I'm always looking forward too, and some Sundays when I have nothing immediately coming to mind, I don't feel like doing one at all. But then I think of some song I [...]
We respect the work that Spin Magazine does. We respect the good, hardworking journalism that's created in-depth features and profiles, which add to the greater lexicon of music criticism. Plus, they're one of the few that are still around! However, in a move that we find giggle-worthy and that is bound to stir up a storm of annoyed music geeks, the magazine has buried deep into the annals of history and unearthed the truths behind music's greatest myths. The list of 16 ranges from the near blasphemous (Myth: Radiohead can do [...]
Don't call me insensitive for having a laugh at the hopes and dreams of an aspiring artist, but this cat Bangs [ Official ] really sucks. I don't care if he's from another country, so is Akon and he doesn't totally suck, I just don't listen to him. Bangs, however, sucks in a way that makes you want to root for him. He's funny and quirky and has does that "rapping foreigner/Tupac" thing really well. Everyone has had their say about this guy so far but holy crap, I love [...]

Its THURSDAY and that means its time for another edition of NAPSNRAPS by Zee! In case you haven't been over to his site yet, check out his rambling on some of Rap music's finest NAPSNRAPS.TUMBLR.COM So I know fakeRICH is based out of LA and that's part of the reason I chose this pic. The thought that maybe one of Suge Knight's aka "Sugar Bear's" Goons could be browsing the blogosphere for the latest remix of Christopher Cross Ride Like the Wind or some shit but instead [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Music Sometimes inspiration strikes at the most unexpected times, as when hotly tipped New York retro-rockers the Postelles were on a recent Canadian tour opening for Vampire Weekend . "We finished our album in a van on the way to Montreal," bassist John Speyer tells Spinner, nursing a hangover in a Reykjavik cafe the day after playing the Iceland Airwaves festival. "Actually, we finished recording in New York," interjects frontman Daniel [...]
MTV Shows "But I Probably Will When Hov Does." - Drake on " Fear " Hip-Hop police is up in arms again. Drizzy Drake is being charged with falsifying love for the culture based on his lack of appreciation of its roots. Well, really, his crime was not crying when Pac died. For whatever reason, that seems to be offending people to the point where the man has to stoop to justifying himself on MTV. For my .02, anyone that criticized Drake for not shedding [...]

I always wondered where Final Fantasy VII got its inspiration for the wild industrial buildings portrayed in the game that sucked the earth's apparent life-force out for capital gain. It would appear that Japan actually does have these types of elaborate factories throughout, and they're gorgeous when photographed well. Take a look: Very cool, huh? I would be surprised to see such epic lighting at a US factory... [...]

Man I love this pic! Shout out to my homey DJ Pussytive repping Finland. I'm coming! Grab your own F**K Me I'm A DJ Shirt over here. Keep looking its all the way over on page 6.

Filed under: News , New Music It looks like Tupac Shakur might not be the king of posthumous releases anymore. Jimi Hendrix fans will be pleased to learn that there is still plenty of unreleased music and video to come from the guitarist's short recording career. Hendrix's sister Janie announced Monday that she plans to release new material every 12 to 18 months for the next 10 years. Janie, who is the President and CEO of Experience Hendrix and Authentic Hendrix -- the two companies that [...]
