Blog: No Vegans - Cause We Like Meaty Beats!

Its very difficult being an active deejay and trying to run a mp3 music blog because every once in a while you come across a remix that you just want to keep to yourself. Chew Fu's latest is one of those remixes. "Love Sex Magic" by Ciara and Justin Timberlake is becoming one of the early bangers of the spring season. The single is already receiving hourly airplay on Z 107.7 and its quickly rising on the Billboard charts. Chew Fu's rendition takes this hit to the next level, but don't take my word for it. [...]

Back to the moon? Kid Cudi announced to fans on his blog that he's done with the rap game and he will be retiring after the release of his debut album. "After the release of my first LP this summer, I am not making any more solo albums," he explained on kidcudi.com. "I am falling back on being an artist. The drama that comes with it is more overwhelming than the shit I was dealing wit when I was piss poor broke. My friends get mad at me, say I've changed." "I don't look [...]

Been spinning this one for a while, but I don't recall hearing it on local urban radio. Have you? Anyway, I'm trying to clean out my library and get some things organized. I really only want one version of this ditty, but I have three. Which one should I keep? P-Money ft Vince Harder - Everything (Lyny P Bmore Remix) P-Money ft Vince Harder - Everything (DJ Kue is better than the FNDB Remix) P-Money ft [...]

Vibe is jumping on the blog house bandwagon and bringing John Bourke back to St. Louis on April 4 to spin at Club 15. Vibe is best known for promoting regional house and electro acts at edm clubs like Dante's, but with this move they're stepping into the mainstream because we all know blog house is where its at! Of course, NoVegans.com is no stranger to the sounds of Trash Yourself. We had an opportunity to interview John Bourke the last time he was in town, and we were and continue to be [...]

If you dug this post, you're gonna love these posts... If there were any others like it... my bad!

This is my last post using Google's Blogger. As soon as I'm finished here, I'll begin migrating this site to a self-hosted Wordpress platform at NoVegans.com . If you've subscribed using Feedburner, then I'm fairly certain you won't be affected. But just in case, I'll be sure to update this posting with new subscribe links as soon as I have them. We're going to be giving the site a makeover for the new launch, and we're going to make it a priority to link to blogs or websites that link to [...]

Big ups to DJ Real Juicy of White Folks Get Crunk for making his way to St. Louis last night for the release of 9 Minutes of Funk. The mixtape is straight fire. You have to hear it for yourself.

Yesterday's response was definitely mad. Thank you for the emails and Myspace friend requests. Of course, I'd like to see more (at least some) comments here on the blog (hook it up b), but I'm not one to beg. Bottom line: if you like what you hear, be sure to let me know. Today we're bringing you more heat from yesterday's featured remixing duo made up of Dave Nada & Matt Nordstrom. Nadastrom is without a doubt the future of music. Hear for yourself: [...]

In light of last night's ridiculous Super Bowl officiating performance, I've got to start this month of music out with a soon-to-be classic, WTF . If you haven't dropped this remix on the dancefloor yet, get on it. It gets 'em everytime.

If I were a sports page editor, my lead story tomorrow morning would ask, "Where was the booth review?" In what may be one of the most memorable Super Bowls in recent history, its sad to say the officials gave the game to the Steelers, but they did. The last play of the game was clearly an incomplete pass. Tack on 15 yards for a penalty called at the end of the play, and you should have had future hall-of-famer Kurt Warner on the 29 yard line with time for 2 or 3 passes [...]

I haven't watched MTV in years, but when I heard Hollywood Holt had a chance to win a spot on their airwaves I knew I had to pass along the info. Please vote all week! He's currently in 1st place. Let's make sure he stays there. Hollywood Holt - MySpace www.myspace.com/holtgoestoholl ywood

In honor of this morning's inauguration and peaceful transfer of power, here's a lil ditty from DJ Excel. You'll definitely hear this dropped Thursday night. DJ Excel - That's What a Pimp Does [mf] Get the high quality version here. DJ Excel - MySpace www.myspace.com/djexcelclubtra xxx

Notorious opened in theaters Friday and it is already being called a " puff piece ." Lack of critical praise is the least of Bad Boy's worries, however, because it seems to me people just aren't into the whole West Coast vs. East Coast thing anymore. Fact is, we heard so much about all of this the years following the deaths of Biggie and Tupac Shakur that most of us are running on burnout. But that doesn't mean we can't enjoy the remix... Biggie - It Was All a Dream (DNGRCT [...]
