Weird Al - Whatever You Like

This is just too funny not to post. I used to listen this guy all the time when I was five years old.

My chick can have what she want, at Walmart she can pick out anything she want

How We Do It Over Here Remix

Here's a remix of a Busta Rhymes and Missy collabo from The Big Bang that I cooked up a few days ago.

Timbaland - Talk (final version)

Timbo finally drops the finished version of Talk. Last time we posted this song only it was just Timbo and T-Pain on the track, but Missy Elliot has been added to the roster for this one.

Love Lockdown Video

Kanye debuted this video on Ellen...kind of a weird place to do that if you ask me.

LMAO!

Jesus survives haha!

Common - Universal Mind Control

New-ish music from Common. I've been sittin on this song for a while and it still hasn't picked up... but maybe the music video will turn some heads. Oh, and the Neptunes produced it. Enjoy

T-Pain vs. his vocoder

We all know that the vocoder is the new hotness in the music world these days. T-Pain has used it so much that his name is pretty much synonymous with vocoding now. Anyways, a friend sent me this video and I thought it was hilarious, so I had to share it.

Live Stock Block Party

On Sept 14th was the annual livestock block party. The event is held outside of the Gastown location (on Abbot between Water and Cordova), and the entire block is closed off. Gman and Rizk always have some of the best Dj's in Canada spin, Dj battles, and a skateboard ramp. The best part of the event is that anyone and everyone involved in the scene shows up. It's like an annual reunion for the industry. Check out the movie below, a time-lapse of the entire day.

Red & Meth - Two Weeks Later

A few weeks ago, Dj Pick and I went down to Plush Nightclub to watch two of our favourite rappers. These guys ripped it up during the 90's and even early 2000. Everyone listened to them in high school, and we all knew the words to Da Rockwilda. This show was so sick, the way a hip-hop show should be. None of the new age rappers can fuck with these guys, nobody rocks a party like the old school. Wu-Tang Clan still aint nuttin to fuck wit.

Rock The Bells - A Month Later

It's been almost a month since Dj Frisk and I drove out to the Gorge Amphitheater in Washington State. It was about a 5-6 hour drive there (and back) to watch some of hip-hop's legends. On the bill for Seattle was The Pharcyde, De La Soul, Mos Def, Nas and of course Tribe Called Quest! The concert was sick! The Gorge is also the best outdoor concert venue I've ever seen, because it's built into a canyon, you can pretty much see the main stage from ANYWHERE inside the concert grounds. It was definitely worth the drive and camping onsight for this! Here are some pictures.

De La Soul

MC Supernatural (sickest freestyle I ever heard)

Nasty Nas
Dj Green Lantern

Q-Tip and Mos Def

Phife Dawg and Ali

Sick Catch!

This is hands down, one of the best catches I've ever seen. I jacked it from Nation Of Millions

Dj Domination

I realized that I haven't posted many deejay specific articles, so here is the first of many to come. It's a clip of Dj Domination pulling out some body tricks of the likes I've never seen. Big ups to Dj Pick for finding this.

RIP Jay Part II

Here is another song I felt was appropriate given what today is. Live in the Sky by TI featuring Jamie Foxx. It is off his King album and it is dedicated to those he's lost. RIP Blondie.

RIP Jay Louie - The Years Fly By

A year ago Vancouver lost a special person. My colleague and friend Jay Louie was taken from us September 24th of last year. He was the nicest person you'll ever meet. He was also full of energy; Jay was the kind of person who could turn a boring night upside down (usually with a bottle of JD). Which is fitting, because he's best known for being a co-executive of (now debunked) Xtscene promotions (night club promoters) and had been involved in the industry for years.

It was only in the year before his passing that I really got to know him, and I never realized how many people he touched until he left us. It wasn't till his funeral that I realized how many people truly cared for him, and all I can say is that when I pass, I can only hope to have as many people will care for me as Jay had for him.

As this is a music blog, I posted Crossroads by Bone Thugs. Although this might come as a cliche, I don't care, it will forever be a great song. Rest in peace bro.

Hold My Breath - Paper Chase Music Video

This music video is apparently a year old, but it's new to me. In case you don't know who Paper Chase is, he's an underground rapper in Vancouver with, in my opinion, a lot of potential. He's probably the last person you'd expect to be a rapper though, and I would know, because we went to elementary school together. This guy was wearing Nirvana t-shirts and somehow transitioned to hip-hop. Either way, he's made a name for himself in this city. Another reason I posted it is because my cousin, Chris Goldade, worked on the filming of the video (watch the credits at the end of it).
