    Download N.E.R.D. “Spazz”

    NERD are back it seems. This track “Spazz” is doin’ the rounds on the interweb right now. Credit where credit is due, I saw it on Soulbounce first. Anyway, the hook could use a little work (IMHO), but the beat bangs. Love it. http://sharebee.com/a57a71f4Ā 

  • Plantlife – Love Toy

    Plantlife – Love Toy

    I dig Plantlife. They’re fonky in all kinds of ways. Their first album “The Return of Jack Splash” was out seemingly eons ago and did not get as widespread a hubbub as it warranted, if you ask me. Now finally the follow-up “Time Traveller” is scheduled for release in June. I believe there were some…

  • Res + Talib Kweli = Idle Warship

    Res + Talib Kweli = Idle Warship

    Res, one of the most talented artists to be continually overlooked by the label system, and Talib Kweli have formed a group – Idle Warship. Personally I’d like to see Res collabo with someone a little….edgier, maybe, than Talib but maybe this will help get her some well-deserved shine until those Pharrell tracks she’s supposedly…
