DC CHILLIN- PG CHILLIN

i'm on U street right now across from ben's chilli bowl and just saw the new "Chillin'" video for Wale and Lady Gaga- LOVE IT

Lady Gaga's got this whole M.I.A. thing going on which i think works for her. Hope she does more hip hop collabs in the future. Wale was in DC last night at the 9:30 Club but i couldn't go. Schucks- was anyone there? How was it? Wale's twats made it sound like there was some trash talking- he's a little sensitive though.

video out for "when loves takes over"!

Here's the David Guetta/Kelly Rowland video for summer anthem "When Love Take Over"- SCORE- really have the urge to throw a beach party now!


Oh and here's a Laidback Luke remix of the song- although I stick to my guns- the song is find in it's original form

Tone Loc released from hospital.. whewww

Tone Loc collapsed and apparently had a seizure from overheating at an outdoor concert in Florida, but has been released from the hospital. Whew. I had a moment of silence for him when i was guest DJ'ing on Saturday night and found out. Here's a good Peaches mix in his honor- may Tone live long and prosper.

Tone Loc- Wild Thing (Peaches Remix)

remember yacht? i'm struggling too

Well it's been a while since Yacht has done anything musically- but I just heard a new song called Psychic City from their upcoming album, See Mystery Lights due out July 28th. Not in love with the single, but it seems like a good preview of what might be on the rest of Yacht's new album- apparently it's a little more experimental but maintains a poppy side. I had to pull out my old school ipod to find some yacht stuff and I dug up some goodies.

Most people will probably remember "See a Penny (Pick it Up)" that was in the background of every MTV show known to man for a solid 2 years. Summer Song was also pretty popular. One of my favorite finds was a Yacht remix of Architecture in Helsinki's "Do the Whirlwind". Here are some tracks.

Frankmusik's new video for Confusion Girl

FINALLY- the Frankmusik full-length album will be coming out June 22nd and will include songs that came out over a year ago- but at least the production sounds TONS better- as evidenced by the music video for Confusion Girl

The Music Slut also released the dets on the tracklisting for the album titled "Complete Me." Looks like there will be a good mix of previously released tracks and some new ones. He looks darn adorable too- I can't believe he's not gay- although he does love the gays. I saw a feature of him in the newest Out Magazine.

Here's a good remix of Confusion Girl done by Don Diablo!

Frankmusik- Confusion Girl (Don Diablo Loves to Slowdance Remix)

pool boy party is officially cancelled

so apparently my inability to get lazy gays to pay $10 in southwest dc at a venue they've never been to at a pool party during a thunderstorm was deserving of giving me the AXX after only 1 try.

sorry to everyone who came to the event, was planning on coming to the event in the future, to the DJ's i lined-up to co-DJ with me, and to the MC's that were coming. i'm sad to see it go just as much as you. could have been really fun.

their loss- right?

i'll keep you updated on other events i have coming up- probably gonna go forward on my hip hop night now so i'll give you the dets when i got 'em.

this song seems fitting at the moment
En Vogue- Never Gonna Get it (My Lovin)

Colin Munroe- the Unsung Hero

I am loving on Colin Munroe so hard right now- the Toronto-based, self-proclaimed "music mutt" fuses some of my favorite genres together into a very, very fresh sound. His new Mixtape "The Unsung Hero" reminds me a lot of Phoenix's 2004 album "Alphabetical", his voice reminds me of a baritone Frankmusik, and his beats are straight hip hop.

Colin Munroe was Hip Hop Official's Artist of the Week back in January- right around when he came out with his mix of Kanye West's Flashing Lights called "I Want Those Flashing Lights." "Nye himself even put the song on his Glow in the Dark Mixtape! Check out the video HHO featured on Colin Munroe.

You can download the whole mixtape for free here:
Colin Munroe is The Unsung Hero - It's a preview of his upcoming album that has Wale, Dallas Austin (who kinda discovered him), Drake, and Blaqstarr among others. Here are some of my favorite tracks so far.

Colin Munroe- Will I Stay (feat Wale and Dallas Austin)

Colin Munroe- Cannonball (feat Drake)- cover of Cannonball- soooo good
Colin Munroe- Piano Lessons (feat Joell Ortiz)

sorry for the gaga overload today.. but this is just hilarious

Paparazzi Mini-Movie/Remixes + True Blood Preview

I'm sure by now you have all seen the mini-movie Lady Gaga made for her new single "Paparazzi", which Perez Hilton premiered on Friday. It's pretty epic. Check out the video now and download 3 new Paparazzi remixes. My favorite is the Stuart Price one.

Lady Gaga- Paparazzi (Stuart Price Remix)

And it even has a cameo from True Blood's hunky Eric (Alexander Skarsgard). True Blood starts back up in 12 days- PS! Here's the trailer for the 2nd season of True Blood!

i think it was scripted...

Bruno (Sasha Cohen) teabagged Eminem last night on the MTV Movie Awards. I think it was staged. After reviewing the video- it seems to unlikely that MTV just happened to cut to the back of the audience where Bruno emerged as a flying ferry, and then just happened to cut to Eminem's face moments before Bruno landed on top of him. Both have things to promote. Nonetheless, it was hilarious.
