Kanye West came into the scene as this young-kid out of Chicago who could mix a mean set of soul and gospel records into an unbelievably infectious beat. Most notably 'infectious' are the tracks he did with Jay-Z , "H to the Izzo," "Heart of the City (Ain't No Love)," and "Lucifer," to name a few. Quickly, Kanye joined the ranks of The Neptunes and Timbaland in the producer world, but wasn't entirely fulfilled with the work. So, what was the young kid to do? He released an imperfect, yet intriguing mixtape, Get [...]
You know your life has truly taken a strange turn when you decide to get a tattoo of your favourite film character and then remember he's a pederast (or paedophile) who's into 'eight year olds, dude' :
Room516 Q&A: Je$u$ Where the last few of our Q&As focused on artists with roots in house music, this time around we approached a producer with an everlasting love for hip hop. Je$u$ aka Heyzus Kannibalismus is a German beatmaker who has an obvious talent for production. We first heard of him through his classy take on Jay-z’s ‘ Justify My Thug ’ and after spending a few minutes going through his work, it quickly became obvious that this guy was an absolute machine. His beats have been featured on a number of compilations, [...]
1. Melissa McCarthy and Jenny McCarthy are cousins. I had no idea until earlier this year when Jenny came to Melissa's defense after Rex Reed wrote a review of Identify Thief that took some low blows at Melissa's wide girth. (Before stooping to calling fat people "hippos," Reed really should research how badass deadly -- and fast! -- those wild beasts are, which is something else I recently learned.) Was the familial connection between the two funny ladies common knowledge to everyone but me? 2. Roquefort is a blue cheese. A little [...]
Luego de adelantar el primer corte de difusión de su próximo trabajo, Kanye West anunció que el título de este disco será Yeezus. El mismo, llegará a las tiendas el 18 de junio a través de Def Jam. Tal como te contamos en otras oportunidades, el sucesor de My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010) contó con la colaboración de Daft Punk, Skrillex, Chief Keef, Young Chop, TNGHT, Odd Future y Frank Ocean , entre otros.

If I was gay Would I be less of a person Less of a man, father Less than human? If I was gay Would you treat me like garbage Call me inhuman Think I'm an abomination? If I was gay Would I not be capable of love Not able to pray Be one with the Lord? If I was gay Could I not help the poor Work with children in schools Coach sports at a public field? If I was [...]
Flyleaf New Horizons Spinefarm Records 08 April 2013 by Tom Gibbons On paper, Flyleaf are a massive success. The Texans have owned huge swathes of the American charts for years, and toured with some of your favorite bands. It doesn't take a genius to figure out why - their formula is a surefire winner. Imagine if Nickelback [...]

"How can your life have any meaning if you don't believe in Heaven"? "What purpose is there to your life if you don't believe anything comes after"? "It would be anarchy if everyone believed this was it". Have you ever been asked any of these questions or comments? Or others similar in nature? Has anyone questioned you on whether you believe in God, Jesus, heaven or any other deity, belief? Of course you have. We all have. Many of us have asked those questions of ourselves. Most, if not all, of us I expect. [...]

Rappin’ Regardless of whether or not the above clip is real, the boy has rhymes. While biblical rapping may be unlikely to catch on as a new hit genre anytime soon, count on this man to go down in the books. Also soliciting all Catfish opportunities for this weekend here & here . Miguel - Do You… J. Cole feat. Miguel - Power Trip
And their equipment, too.
Merry Christmas! In the spirit of the season, I figured there was no better artist to focus on than one who took his name from a gargantuan version of the sweet little baby in a manger whose birthday so many are celebrating. Merry Christmas MC 900 Ft. Jesus, and happy birthday regular-sized Jesus! MC 900 Ft. Jesus is one of those artists that I was exposed to growing up in Boston and listening to our equivalents of KCMU - mostly WZBC and WHRB - as I've probably mentioned in this space before. Through college radio I was exposed [...]
Today's Musical Advent album of the day is "December Vol. 23 from Robbie Seay Band! "Come Thou Long Expected Jesus" and "Song Of Hope" are my favorites but all of the tracks are solid and I would highly recommend buying the whole EP. Besides... their Houstonians so you know they've gotta be awesome Buy on [...]
This happened at the Ace Hotel the other night, the bubbles (?) in my coffee formed an uncanny resemblance to John Lennon / Jesus . Perhaps the Ramones frontman Joey Ramone? Who knows. Either way, pretty crazy, huh?

So, as Gary Barlow picked up his Music Industry Trust Award he gave a little speech : Barlow himself reminded the audience at the Grosvenor hotel that it hadn't always been easy for him, saying in his acceptance speech that "I loved the fact that I spent seven years in the wilderness, doing a lot of eating". The wilderness, eh? As self-aggrandising claims go, comparing yourself to Jesus is one of the biggies. But was Barlow really, like Jesus, out in the desert having his faith tempted? The "lot of eating" reference suggests superficially that, had the [...]
