A SKYPE PHONE? VERIZON & SKYPE MERGE

GigaOm has dug up some tidbits on the recently announced deal between Verizon and Skype, an agreement that would put Skype on Verizon Wireless’ smartphones. According to them Verizon and Skype reportedly inked an exclusive two to three year deal that will not be offered to other carriers. We are not too sure how the deal is exclusive since Skype is available for download already on most smartphones, but hey who knows...

WALE & HIS PRETTY GIRLS ON JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE
I've always said Wale sounds like he could have been Marvin Gaye's son but Wale brought out the backpack for a very dope rappin' performance with a band & all. I've never gotten to see an urban act perform with a live band but seeing from all these (self pampering) youtube clips i find, i gotta experience this one day.

RIHANNA'S NEW VIDEO "RUDE BOY"
Rihanna's looking like M.I.A. or Santogold in vid looks like homegirl is getting her hipster on...
There is some nice artwork on the video it almost looks like a myspace page of a teenager but it's all pretty bittersweet because by now her legion of online haters aren't going to be sleeping on the video.

DID JOHN MEYER GO TO FAR?
Download Sean Price Shut The Fuck mp3
This could probably be the 1st Hip Hop response to John mayor's over the top comments, I guess with Barack Obama being president he was getting just a lil tooo comfortable in this supposed "post-racial" era in America that he felt it was i guess the word is, "ok" for him to say what he did.. but that too still, overlooks the brutal history of blacks in America & how they have been shaped from it.
When he was asked "do black women throw themselves at you?" Mayer responded "I don't think I open myself to it. My dick is sort of like a white supremacist. I've got a Benetton heart and a fuckin' David Duke cock"... whatever happened to the time when white boyz hit on black girls (along with the "yo,yo,yo,yo,yo") & try to run up their street credibility?... from Usher's ex-wife to Don Imus's "nappy headed hoes" black women can't catch a break in our society.. on prime time t.v., shows always put 1 & a half just for affirmative action as like insurance to kind of say "oh we make them visible" & they don't even properly choose them like they do other participants or contestants.... usually.
It's ironic, most of his band is black but it was a pretty good apology as celeb apologies go.

Download Who Are You juelz santana mp3 We have here never before heard verses from Juelz Santana. Produced by Andrew Kelley, the song borrows a sample from the old geezers who performed at this years Super Bowl Hhalftime show, The Who. The original version below sounds like it could be a theme song to an 80's Teen movie lol

LIL WAYNE SKIPS JAIL... FOR NOW



Lil wayne is being allowed to stay away from jail a little bit longer because he needs surgery on a tooth, don't prisons have dentists? Anyways this is positive news because this past weekend he shot 9 videos in 48 hours now he can have more time to shoot 90 more! lol According to his manager this is all part of a bigger plot "Everybody is onboard because everybody knows what's at stake. Unlike T.I. and some of these other guys that's disappeared while they were in, the point is to keep Wayne [visible] on TV and everything for whatever time he's in. There was a plan in action... he's at the height of his career, you can't let that momentum slip."

MILES DAVIS GETS A HIP HOP MAKEOVER

I accidentally stumbled across this mixtape & it blew me away, not that it was good but more so because the concepts & ideas that were employed, The Apple Juice Kid used a hip hop format to not only sample Miles Davis's work but also to showcase his own dope skills as a drummer, bandleader & hip hop producer. It sounds like a juiced up version of Guru's Jazzmatazz series.

THROWBACK JOINT
Classic piece, this is back when rap fans acted like those round the way type of guys that just get way to much ass. I think they're slowing calling this the "golden era of hip hop"
