Vibe magazine chops it up with KRS-One as he breaks down his entire catalogue. Very interesting read, as KRS speaks on what happened whilst creating some of the best classics of Hip-Hop, starting with his Boogie Down Productions days. KRS-One on "Criminal Minded": "Me and Scott La Rock (DJ and co-founder of Boogie Down Productions ) started B Boy Records, which was a small little record company, with some other guys— Ray Wilson , Jack Allen and Bill Kamarra . That's where we put out 'South Bronx.' Before all this, [...]

CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW VIDEO My personal favourite Christmas hip-hop song, Run DMC's "Christmas In Hollis". This single came from the festive compilation "A Very Special Christmas" and gets the mixture of comedy and real hip-hop just right! Even in 2011 it still feels fresh.

It truly is a Christmas Day miracle. Nice rework of my favorite holiday tune of all time.

Every year, we ask our friend Josh from the esteemed music blog Indie Kid vs Dance Kid to give us his best of. This year he just gave us a list of videos but neglected to provide comment, so being the friend that I am, I will provide commentary (in italics) IKDK Best of Holiday Songs; Best served with Eggnog and Rum Saint Etienne and Tim Burgess - I Was Born On Christmas Day Saint Etienne is Josh's favorite band ever and [...]

Well, seeing as how we're a week away from Christmas, and that we've been in a festive mood around these parts all month, thanks to our rather awesome (if we do say so ourselves) #herohillxmas Advent Calendar , a Christmas themed Old School Monday seemed in order. I was about to do this from scratch, when thankfully I realized that I'd done a fairly thorough Christmas Rappin' post a couple years ago. It seems like it would be rather difficult to do it any better than I'd already done it, so I'm putting those same songs back [...]

[Not everyone loves Christmas songs but I, for one, can't get enough of them. Every year it seems we get the same old perennial hits, and I guess that's part of the charm - Christmas is a time for comforting familiarity after all - but most of these aren't as fulfilling as one might hope, musically speaking. Never fear, however, as this Yuletide help is at hand, in the form of Eaten by Monsters' selection of the best alternative Christmas songs out there.] Argyle: Mind if [...]
Run D.M.C. : Christmas in Hollis [ purchase ] Sometimes it's hard to predict what malls will or will not play at this time of year. I know I've heard some musical detritus that I thought was utterly devoid of redeeming value (carol porn?). In fact, I finally had to shift my dental cleanings from December to January just to avoid yet another listening of Burl Ives' Holly Jolly Christmas , and I'd rather have that drill cranked up to drown out Elvis's Blue Christmas .

De afgelopen maanden ben ik op het werk bezig geweest met het ontwikkelen van een app. Een wandelapp. Het uiteindelijke product is de Blokje Om wandelapp geworden. Om het ultieme uit de mogelijkheden van een smartphone-wandel-app te halen, hebben we besloten om uit te gaan van de plek waar iemand op dat moment is. Een app waarbij je eerst 20 kilometer moet reizen voor je kunt gaan wandelen gaat niemand gebruiken, dachten we. En vanaf de plek waar je bent kun je random 'blokjes om' laten maken. Praktisch gezien krijg je dus elke keer dat [...]

Were you at Philly's First All-Rap Spectacular? We found this poster (above) for a show at The Spectrum on July 5th, 1986 featuring Run DMC, the Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, Whodini and Jam Master Jay on the DogIsland tumblr and we couldn't resist sharing it.
I really can't begin to express my excitement for this post, there are just too many crazy things going on at once! First of all, you need to understand my love for SSX , the snowboarding/skiing video game series that I basically grew up on. Secondly, Run DMC's "It's Tricky" is a hip-hop classic, so to see it get some modern day light is a total win in my book. Thirdly, Pretty Lights, one of my favorite producer/remixers of the past few years has his fingers in the mix, giving this epic jam some great jabs. Put all three [...]
"They say I'm overrated, musicians really hate it, My name is Run, I'm number one, it's very complicated! This sh*t cray! Pretty Lights remixed Run DMC's "It's Tricky" for EA Sports' upcoming release of SSX, and it's heavy! SSX Tricky used to be my JAM back in the day, so this is Pretty nostalgic. "Read [...]

Pretty Lights recently played his new remix of Run DMC's "It's Tricky."
