http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =rYoe0e_Rsqg Hope that you were able to check out America’s Premier DJ Competition, SMIRNOFF’s Master of the Mix, last night on VH1. In the sad chance that you missed out (probably due to a severe illness), here is a recap of what went down in the city where the heat is on.

Last night on SMIRNOFF’s Master of the Mix, Tina T came back to try and assert her might one last time during a sudden death mini-battle with DJ Fly Guy.Tina proved that her time had come when she lost the 90 second beat juggling and scratching competition, giving DJ Fly Guy another life in the competition and a shot of succeeding during the main competition. This week's challenge was entitled "Invent or Get Sent" and the six remaining DJs were faced with a task of using their turntables as an instrument. Shush all those haters who say that [...]

Normally, VH1 outpaces all other music channels when it comes to, you know, actually covering music. The films, documentaries and other forms of reporting do justice to the subject and fans. Except that one time, when they made that God awful Michael Jackson movie starring Flex Alexander as Michael. Oh, and let's not forget the MC Hammer movie or the ratchet reality shows. Okay, aside Aside from all that, they're still pretty good, I think. Yesterday, VH1 released the first official image of Crazy, Sexy, Cool: The TLC Story 's [...]

Appearing as the seventh installment in the ongoing split 7" Less Artists More Condos series is Ty Segall and Chad & The Meatbodies . The former of which provided this excellent fuzz instrumental track "Music For A Film 1" - something of a departure of the garage rock revivalist. The latter track, however, is blindingly excellent and a must listen from Chad & The Meatbodies. As part of the series, the artist featured as the A-Side of the 7" (in this case, Segall) picks the artists they would like to see featured as [...]

Say it ain't so. Word on the street is that VH12s hit series Love & Hip-Hop , which has already taken up residency in NYC and Atlanta, is headed to Chicago next. I've heard rumblings of producers poking around Chicago looking for talent, and up until recently they had an ad on Craigslist searching for cast members (the call out is now down).
