I love the Souled On Samples posts at Souled On. The most recent sample post taught me that two of my favorite songs of ‘08 (GZA’s “Life Is A Movie” & Grip Grand’s “Remember The Time”) owe a ton to their original sample source (Gary Numan’s “Films” & Darondo’s “Didn’t I”). Thanks Scholar.

The Emmy’s are tonight. I doubt that I’ll watch with Sunday night already being my most packed night of television. Also, awards shows are usually pretty lame. Although, ABC’s advertising (as pictured above) is pretty sweet. Anyhow, there’s no new episode of Mad Men tonight. The show wants to allow their [...]

Here’s some new information on Buck 65’s Dirtbike:
I put together this thing called Dirtbike. Actually – at the risk of sounding nuts or esoteric or pretentious – the project is called Dirtbike (I figure it will be an on-going endeavor) and the first piece of it is called Lettersongs (Different Kinds of Dirt). I don’t [...]
