Ryan Leslie - Addiction (2 videos) + Making of the Song
Super-producer Ryan Leslie has finally released videos for his single Addiction. I've also included the video of him creating the song in his studio. This guy blows me away every time he's in the studio. It's a shame that he's still working with Cassie, because her lack of vocal talent is always overshadowed by his production on her songs. I have the feeling that she'll be the next artist to join the Auto-tune fad in her music (i.e. Ciara, Rihanna, Kanye). To be honest, I think that the only reason she's still in the music industry is because she's a pretty, marketable face. Granted...a very, very pretty face.
Addiction - Alternate Version
The Making of Addiction
Ya...she's hot.
Ya...she's hot.Nas - The other virgo
As you might already know, yesterday was my birthday (thanks to the previous post), but what you might not know is that on the 14th was the birthday of one of hip-hop's greatest emcees. To this day I frequently listen to illmatic, which is considered one of the best rap albums ever made. And to add to that, I attended Rock the Bells at the Gorge (outside of Seattle) and witnessed Nas perform several songs from this debut album. So as a tribute to him, his birthday and one of my favourite albums, here is the "10th Anniversary Platinum Series" disc of illmatic (cause I know you already have the original). Enjoy!

T.I. - Hurt
Since TI's new album, Paper Trail, is due out at the end of the month, I began listening to some old TI tracks. I re-discovered this track from TI vs. TIP. It's definitely one of the best songs on the album and guess who produced it? Danja Handz. That guy is ridiculous and is probably one of the most versatile producers out there. I mean, the guy produced half of Britney Spears' Blackout.

More Beats
2 beats from a week ago. The first one happened by accident after messing up a previous beat. The second one was something that Goldade started and I finished.

Timbaland feat. T-Pain - Talk
I heard Timbo play a clip of this track in a club on YouTube a little while back. I've been waiting for it to drop ever since. Once again, Timbo proves why he's one of the best, if not the best producer out there.

We'll Never Forget You, Aaliyah
I know it's a few days since Aug 25th ( the anniversary of her passing), but I thought I'd post the first Aaliyah song I ever heard. I was in grade 8 when it first came out, and I always remembered it because of the "baby" noises in the background.
Old school joint for y'all
So I was watching an episode of The Office today (funniest show ever)...the one where Michael hosts the Dundie awards and he makes his grand entrance to this song as he tries to act hood haha.

Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover
I'm sure a lot of people in Canada know of Nardwuar and how strange he can be. He's also well known for his depth of knowledge, this interview is no exception. Check out how impressed NERD is with this interview! I think MuchMusic should pay this man more money!

Pemberton 08
I recently attended the first annual Pemberton music festival. It was a three day event with tons of acts, such as: Nine Inch Nails, Tom Petty, Tragically Hip, NERD, Coldplay, and of course, JAY-Z! I, however, only purchased the sunday ticket, which was the day NERD, Jay-z and Coldplay were performing.
The first act we saw was NERD, who brought more energy to the crowd than I've ever seen from a hip-hop show. There were people moshing, crowd surfing and all kinds craziness you would expect from a rock concert.
Then after a rather boring set from Death Cab for Cutie, me and my friend Sana crept as close to the front as we could. After a while of suffocating in the crowd, Hova took the stage! I can definitely say it was worth the money!! He put on one of the best shows I've ever seen. To begin with, he had a full band! He did almost every hit single since Vol 2. THATS RIGHT, HE SANG HARDKNOCK LIFE! The crowd response was incredible too, after his first song, he just stood center stage while 40 thousand people threw up the dynasty sign and chanted "HOVA HOVA".
Here are few pictures, and footage from the event. Note the 5 minutes Jay-Z takes to connect with the crowd.
