this was titled " Chris Lil Dick Faraone ". This is one of TWO entries I have received thus far for the Chris Faraone art show and the other entry was from DJ ON & ON.. Are you fucking serious America? Is Chris Faraone simply that unimportant that you cannot take 15 minutes out of your life and submit a drawing, painting, sketch, or photoshop. You have ONE MONTH left to submit something relevant to Chris Faraone. A haiku, a poem, a stick figure fucking an [...]

If you've no clue what I've been up to since September, then you must have missed the perpetual flatulence that my JTTS colleagues have blown in my direction over the past few months. In that event I can only assure you that I was working on a project that's at least half as important as my duty here, which is primarily to remind one and all that any hip-hop recorded after 2001 is guilty until proven innocent. By now it's no secret that the shit-ass Frat Rap Tumblr is nominated for a Phoenix [...]

Will you be attending the BIG QUEER ROCK SHOW on March 2nd? This is the part of the post where you turn to me and say, "Yes, I'm all about supporting local Boston musicians, whilst simultaneously benefiting a unique organization that works with LGBT youth. Also, I've really been looking for an opportunity to get rocked so hard that my face melts off!" Good to hear! Alas, you might be a little curious about who will be rocking your face off. [...]
By now you all know that the BPDNews.com website was hacked by Anonymous over retaliation for their - in all honesty - incredible work and peaceful, thought-out, and downright gold standard dealings with the terrorist movement known as Occupy Boston. Well the website is back up and they thought it would be funny to troll Anonymous. . . This video symbolizes every interaction I've ever had with Boston Police.
We're an MC/producer duo from Boston called Black EL x Durkin. We just released a new track called "Purgatory" from our forthcoming project, "The Collage." Durkin intended this track to be an instrumental interlude, but eventually Black EL was inspired to write a verse to it. In a nutshell, "Purgatory" is about the uncertainty of [...]

Charles Bradley says "I love you all" and I believe him. We all believe him. Then, as if there is any doubt, he walks to the edge of the stage, looking for a moment like he'll take a stage dive, climbs off the stage and starts hugging people. He makes his way through the crowd for what seems like a long time, just hugging his now fans. - 63 year old Charles Bradley, after years of poverty, living [...]
. . I used to work with Will C. He quit abruptly and disappeared off the face of the planet. Rumors began to circulate about his whereabouts.. "He is a professional dog walker"... "He has been listening to a lot of Brian Wilson".. "He got naked, took acid in the desert with Shamans, and began chanting about the multi dimensional relationships between matrices and hyper matrices when viewed on multilinear maps".. Really odd shit.. Anyway, we know where we was now. Crafting a fucking brilliant [...]

Ok this is mega, mega dope. Like, I'm not gonna talk much because you should be listening. Sleepwalkers Remedy, the debut full length from Retrospek, comes on the heels of their two internationally acclaimed EP's. SOMESHYTWEDID and Boom Bap and Beyond. The Boston-based trio, composed of MC's Junelyfe and A. Spendacash and Producer Rah Intelligence, call the record their most sonically diverse work to date. Centering around the theme of waking up, the project explores different meanings of being "asleep"only to further realize that they are in fact "the remedy". The album features London's Lander Khadel, [...]
Sadly we lost a GREAT one in the Boston music scene.....I hate having to poast this but after the conversation I had w Checkmark I feel it's only right to remember someone who I had much respect for and a great many times with.......from the 15 passenger van we took up to a show in N.H. in 982 to the show we did in R.I at a out door skate park. The Flunkies had some good times and most of them had EB at the helm. I'll miss you brother, your music will live on forever. This is [...]
