State's Office Stereo: Whodini, Shabazz Palaces, James Brown, Beyonce, SBTRKT and more

A weekly feature in which our writers share their favourite tracks of the week. Whodini - 'Friends' (chosen by Aoife Barry) Listen to Tyler the Creator and his bitch-smacking rhymes? No thanks. I'd rather keep it old skool and turn to a group like Whodini, who managed to write a completely inoffensive song about friendship – yes, friendship – and twist it into a super-sweet jam. It's the synths that make this track, and it might not come as a surprise to hear these guys once worked with Thomas Dolby (on 'Magic's Wand'). Contemporaries [...]

Halloween Music Video Countdown: Whodini's "Haunted House Of Rock" We continue our Halloween Music Video Countdown today with this novelty rap treat from Whodini , an early to mid-802s rap group from Brooklyn (before Brooklyn was overtaken by indie-rock hipsters).

They also had a novelty song that made the Halloween mixtape rounds with "The Haunted House Of Rock," a synth-driven jam about a haunted house of rock where inside, there was "music bein' played by The Grateful Dead," and "Dracula was [...]

Q&A WITH RQM

by cheryl santa maria From his slick production and catchy lyrics to his pounding bass and supersonic beats, RQM is proving to be an intuitive emcee with an ability to create music that is nothing short of bliss.

Ickmusic's Old School Mix

Ickmusic's Old School Mix I've been itchin' for a while to put together a nice little collection of my old school favorites. In the mid 80's, I was in my mid teens when I became obsessed with a. Prince and b. the rap/hip-hop of the day. These are some of the songs I came of age with. Now, some of my favorites included some not so PG material. In fact, some of it was downright foul. Too Short's "Freaky Tales" is the biggest offender here, followed closely by that 2 Live Crew classic "We Want Some P***y". But hey, I [...]
