Being the 10th anniversary of the widely recognized Rock The Bells Music Festival, we had an idea that organizers would go big to mark the [...]
This year's Rock The Bells music festival marks its 10th anniversary with a jam-packed lineup, including "virtual performances" by two deceased artists, Ol' Dirty Bastard from the Wu Tang Clan and Eazy-E, who will be performing with the ongoing reunion of Bone Thugs N Harmony. The MC Supernatural actually freestyled the all-star line-up earlier this evening. In full, here's what the lineup looks like: Big K.R.I.T., Black Hippy (Ab-Soul, Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, and Schoolboy Q), Bodega Bamz Bone Thugs N Harmony, Brother Ali, Chase and Status, Common, Curren$y, Danny Brown, Dilated Peoples, Dizzy Wright, Dom Kennedy, E-40 and Too Short, [...]

Fool's Gold Records' frontman A-trak just released the highly anticipated video for his single Piss Test. The track was originally released with only Juicy J and Danny Brown providing vocals, however upon its re-release on the Foolie's Mixtape Jim Jones, Flatbush Zombies, and El-P added versus while Flosstradamus added some trap to the beat. Check out the official video below:
A-Trak's "Piss Test" has been remixed, because the original featuring Juicy J and Danny Brown apparently was not wild enough. Jim Jones, Flatbush Zombies, El-P and Flosstradamus hop on for the very intoxicated and "trippy" remix. The whole track is nuts, but El-P's fury on the last verse makes everyone else look like amateurs. Check the video below. This is a part of the Fools Gold rap compilation, Loosies , which is available now. Read more articles like " A-Trak - "Piss Test" (Remix) f. Juicy [...]

ATL creative house, Greedmont Park, premieres Mach Five's newest video off their upcoming project, Art Rap . "The Juxtaposition," shows a more lyrical and toned down side to the group, who are known for making party songs with the likes of artists such as Juicy J and Danny Brown. Keep an eye on A.Ware and Corey Davis because these guy's are just getting started.
And just like that, another year is in the books. I think we're all happy the world didn't end on the 21st, if for no other reason than that this list gets to be presented to the public. AlbatRoss and I have worked on compiling the perfect wrap-up list for 2012 in hip-hop and we'll be breaking it down in 4 stages of 20. We had 2 guidelines we stuck to in compiling this list: 1) it had to be rap (meaning no R&B - Frank Ocean and Miguel had killer years but they won't be found on this list) [...]

Here at Potholes, we love us some Nardwuar. I mean, who doesn't love the Human Serviette? He's probably the most well-known music journalist to geeks like me—and the other folks who scribble down digital thoughts on here. He's also capable of grounding most artists and making them realize it's a damn privilege to be talking to someone who's both knowledgeable and entertaining. Yeah, some of you hate his shtick, but you can't act like he hasn't surprised you with his deeper-than-fucking-Wikipedia smarts. Now, if only he could do another interview with Questlove—seriously, if you haven't watched it, [...]
![[Album Stream] Fool’s Gold: Loosies](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4679546_lg.jpg)
A couple weeks ago we wrote about Fool's Gold then upcoming rap compilation, Loosies. Well, it is no longer forthcoming, as the project is available now via iTunes and a limited edition custom USB package . The album features a handpicked collection of new artists including King L, Grande Marshall, Danny Brown, Troy Ave, and others. You can stream the full album below via The Fader .
We are definitely feeling Fool's Gold's Loosies compilation , and now it is time for you to start feeling it too. The list of artists on this project is pretty massive, sporting looks from everyone from Danny Brown and Juicy J to Action Bronson and Flatbush Zombies . Not only does this prove how strong Fool's Gold's roster is, but also how big of a community they have built within hip-hop. The compilation can also be purchased on iTunes, or in a pretty cool USB format . Both of [...]

Out today is the celebratory compilation from Fool's Gold , Loosies . That's right, Fool's Gold is five years young right now; what better way to stunt than to drop a massive, 22-track compilation featuring the likes of Danny Brown , Action Bronson , Freeway , Freddie Gibbs , Casey Veggies , Flatbush Zombies , and plenty more!? They've thrown the full project up for stream (including the mix that A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs did of the entire project), which you can preview below; cop the project [...]
Various Artists - Loosies Fool's Gold Records: 2012 Fool’s Gold Records began as an indie hip-hop/electronic label in the worst sense of that definition. They introduced artists like Kid Sister and Kid Cudi to the music world, musicians who used the hip-hop genre as a placemat for far less complex or interesting ideas of their own. Go back and listen to “Day N Night” and you’ll hear a man with a head much too big for his shoulders, attempting to redefine music he doesn’t seem to really understand very well in the first place.

How do you take a big, unapologetic drug anthem and turn it up a few notches? Well, you could always do more drugs, but we can't recommend that. Another route: enlist Flosstradamus , Jim Jones , Flatbush Zombies , and El-P to jump on a tremendous trap beat and rap about drugs. A-Trak does exactly that on the "Piss Test" remix. Juicy J 's simple, memorable chorus remains, but the new guests replace the verses from Juice and Danny Brown . Would've been nice to get a new Danny verse, [...]

From the Fool's Gold comp that's coming out next week, come's a remix of one of the jams of the year. Jim Jones, Flatbush Zombies, and El-P jump on the track with Juicy J and the whole thing is re-cut by Flosstradamus. Do I wish that Danny Brown had been kept on the track? Obviously. But El-P brings it in his place, and I might even prefer this mix. Check it out below. A-Trak - Piss Test feat. Juicy J, Jim Hones, Flatbush Zombies, El-P, Flosstradamus(Remix) posted by: @Shoemosher

Since their establishment in 2007, Brooklyn-based label Fool's Gold has pumped out a pretty continuous stream of dance floor burners, excitingly experimental rap records, and seemingly endless intersections of the two. A statement from the label's website perfectly encapsulates the vibe of a given Fool's Gold record: "For those in the know, a Fool’s Gold party is THE place to be – the kind of night where DJ Premier spins disco records, Kanye shows up unannounced to try out new music, and Drake gets on the mic to wish everyone a happy Chanukah."
