N.T.F.O. To This

Apr 28, 12:14pm JumpTheTurnstyle

I reached dangerous levels of nerdocity last night, as I was in my glory glued to C-Span watching The White House Correspondent's Dinner. For those from Brockton, it's the annual White House roast session where all of media comes together to basically watch a roast. Bill O'reilley, Tavis Smiley, and Arianna Huffington all in the same room getting shit on. I literally lol'd throughout Obama and Conan's routines. Light one up and N.T.F.O. (Nerd The Fuck Out) Barry came out to "All I Do Is Win" and set shit off [...]

White House responds to 'Open Letter' from Jay-Z

Apr 12, 3:16am The 405

The White House, not risking any chances with a public relations fiasco, have denied a statement Jay-Z made in his recent song ' Open Letter '. In the song, Jay claims that he "Got White House clearance," referring to his recent trip to Cuba with his wife Beyonce . While the illusion Jay plays in song has been apparently lost on some people, after being questioned about the lyrical content, Press Secretary Jay Carney explained to a questioning reporter that, "The White House, from the President on down, had nothing to [...]

White House disses Jay-Z’s new song, denies Obama authorized Cuba trip

Apr 11, 2:33pm Death+Taxes Magazine

Jay-Z's new song " Open Letter " is getting Obama in all kinds of trouble. First Congresspeople Marco Rubio, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart suggested that Jay-Z and Beyonce's recent "educational trip" to Cuba was illegal , and even accused Jay of funding the Castro regime. They blamed the trip on Obama, because Tea Partiers can find a way to blame anything on Obama— even stuff that doesn't exist . But the song itself isn't making things easier for the president. The White House's claim that Obama had nothing to do with Jay and Bey's [...]

Sketch of Obama drinking Guinness celebrates the president’s Irish roots

Mar 20, 3:30pm Death+Taxes Magazine

Henry Healy, President Barack Obama's eighth cousin from Ireland, visited the White House on Tuesday to deliver the above portrait , "Obama in Moneygall", illustrated by Irish artist Brian Fogarty. The sketch was a St. Patty's Day gift so that the president would not forget his Irish roots. Now we all know Obama likes to pound down the stout beer but ... Irish roots? White House archivist Eddie Gehman Kohan explains : The President is related to three families in [the Irish village of] Moneygall. In 1761, Sarah Healy, Henry's [...]

R. Kelly’s “Ignition (Remix)” Might Become the New National Anthem Thanks to a White House Petition

Mar 5, 10:39pm The Nosebleeds

It has been almost 200 years since "The Star Spangled Banner" was written by Francis Scott Key. Needless to say the United States needs an updated National Anthem. Who better than the father of the hip-hop opera , R. Kelly? There is an actual White House petition that is asking the Obama Administration to seriously consider changing the National Anthem  to the "Ignition (Remix)." I couldn't think of a better song to kick off the Super Bowl, World Series, and military gatherings than an R. Kelly song. The petition needs 100,000 signatures to even be considered. So tell your friends and family and let's [...]

EDM Culture Everywhere: Obama Gettin’ Down With The Dubtsep

Feb 13, 5:29pm Magnetic Magazine

So I came across this little wow of a gem from our friends at Mixmag while perusing the Twitter feeds. It's an advertisement from the White House showing Obama and the positive effects he has had on the US of A, sounds innocent enough, right? Yeah except when the big boom of dubtsep claws its way into the video. No joke either, true-blue dubstep colors this little advert at approximately 14 seconds into the video. Now the question remains, is it for real, or is it a fake? You tell us. [It's real, the video was [...]

The White House uses dubstep in commercial for Barack Obama speech

Feb 12, 9:25pm Stoney Roads

The official YouTube channel for the Whitehouse has released a contemporary musically composed video for President Obama's 2013 'State Of Union' speech set to go ahead today. In what can be said as an admittedly stirring classical rendition turned Gen Y bangor of musical promotion, the video starts off with string instruments - moving into a more dramatic dubstep "drop" with thick instruments and chords that you could say are close to Flux Pavilion's 'I can't stop' . The one question that is on our mind is, who ghost [...]

White House would sell for about $300 million

Jan 18, 11:58am Death+Taxes Magazine

Can't you just hear the sales pitch? "It has 35 bathrooms, up to 132 bedrooms depending on how you want to use them, a screening room, a Situation Room, and a radioactive-proof bunker." Real estate firm Zillow yesterday crunched the numbers on what the White House is worth using their Zestimate algorithm that factors in square footage, comparable prices in the neighborhood, etc, to determine a likely market price of a particular house. They estimated that the White House, with all its amenities and prime location, would sell for $294.9 million. And that's in [...]

Being a staunch leftie, Madonna was really happy to see Obama reelected. She was beaming with joy during her Detriot concert show, exclaiming: "I'm ecstatically happy Obama is our president,"  she said.  "Let's embrace him. Let's be happy." "I love you, too,"  she told that segment of the crowd. "What's so great about the United States of America is we live in a democracy,"  she continued.  "You can boo all you want, but... I've been around the world, and there are a lot of countries out there fighting for that right. Whether you [...]

Cut Hands – Black Mamba

Nov 8, 2012, 1:00pm MrBungle

William Bennett is terug met een vervolg op zijn absoluut verpletterende Afro Noise album, dat het vorig jaar nog schopte tot de zevende plek in mijn jaarlijst. Met een nieuw album vernoemd naar één van de meest giftige slangen in Afrika, de Dendroaspis Polylepis , kunnen we ons weer opmaken voor een uiterst agressief voodooritueel. Gewapend met inheemse percussie instrumenten, bewerkt met elektronica, gaat Cut Hands op jacht naar een verse trofee. Black Mamba begint in ieder geval goed: een ijzingwekkende monoloog van [...]

However this isn't her best work, but this makes me hopeful that new music isn't far behind.  Her politically angst track is quite precious, unfortunately I wish she wouldn't have released this so close to the election with so many skeptics at hand. You can grab the track for free HERE and all she asks if for a [...]

I love that they include the use of honey made from the bee-hive on the South Lawn and aside from that, the recipes seem easy enough to make for the home brewer. "As far as we know the White House Honey Brown Ale is the first alcohol brewed or distilled on the White House grounds," Kass writes.
