P.H. Fat from Cape Town and Fuzzy Slipperz hit us with „The Big Five“, comming with a nice mixture of Dubstep and old school flavoured rap. As allways, I’d wish for some harder raps instead of “get down like animals”. But you know me, I just aint got class. The beat is hardbody, at least. Stole it on http://chromekids.com [...]

Dirty House is an electro house variation with a latin house influence, lots of vocals and (if you believe the english wiki) “much more commercial in its appeal” than e house. Garage and Grime are other influences. Sounds good, hm? If you cut out the commercial thing, at least. If we talk about rap I’m [...]

Okay, this one is anti-uptempo. Drake performing on a DJ Screw joint (“June 27th“). The screwed beat sounds a lil like the old Ghost Dog soundtrack RZA did.. I really rock with that original Screw sound, so props to Drake. The song is called “November 18th”, Drakes mixtape is called “Best I Ever Had”. Chuck [...]

D’oh. I missed the fact that Buraka Som Sistema did a new video . My bad. Is Deize Tigrona the übernasty girl from their live show? The one I mean is in the video, but is she doing the vocals too? Kalaf told me her name on Facebook I guess, but I’m too drunk to [...]

Another day, another beard wearing friend The Streets video. You might take it as a starting point for thoughts about how Mike Skinner might be living, check out his equipment or philosophy about beards and lumberjack shirts.
