This is pretty much what the internet was invented for.
Sidenote: Rock The Bells was dope…footage and stuff coming soon. Tune in to Sound Session tonight as well for all sorts of dopeness!
My man El Prez from Los Angeles has been leaking new joints recently, but he just dropped the official mixtape for y’all to check out entitled The Daily Show. If you’re a Sound Session listener, you may remember Prez from his “UAINTUPONTHIS!” joint with the U-N-I homies. And if you remember that, you know dude is dope. I would write more, but I need to get some ish ready for Rock The Bells later today at the Gorge. Matter of fact, I think I’ll bump this on the way down to the show…
Tracklisting and download link after the jump! Shout to What Eye Thought for the drop.
If you’re as big of a Kanye fan as I am, you remember a lot of his early material featuring a dope Chicago MC named Mikkey. Well after a brief stint with Cash Money Records (I still have no idea why he signed there), Mikkey returned to his roots and has released a ton of great songs over the past few years. He just compiled a mixtape called Uncrowned King, which is filled with new and previously unreleased material featuring collaborations with ‘Ye, Common, No ID, and more.
Thanks to Drew over at FakeShoreDrive, you can download the tape right here.
Along with all her other moral standings that I find reprehensible, one thing I really despise about Sarah Palin is that she’s such a staunch supporter of the NRA and hunting. I’ve always been an animal lover and sympathetic to animal activism, so I can’t agree with anyone who enjoys hunting or fishing for entertainment. Theoretically, if you’re killing a creature for sustenance, I can live with that. If you’re just murdering creatures for entertainment, I think there’s something seriously wrong with you.
Also, I find it curious that a lot of hunters are also ultra-religious, when the Bible clearly states “thou shall not kill.” How do they justify that? Don’t animals have souls just like we do? How can they claim to follow the word of God when they can’t even follow the Commandments?
This woman cannot be a heartbeat away from the presidency.
One of the best things about living in the day of digital archiving is that everything is on record. You can’t expect to say one thing today, contradict it tomorrow, and then claim it never happened. Well, I guess if you’re John McCain and the Republicans, you can and do. Self-ethering at its finest.
Ending the first week of the all-Wayne WLotD month:
“Tell that beef I’m Burger King, I represent that Saints sign/
I’m so high, I could paint signs”
–Lil’ Wayne, “Let Us Pray”
He abuses those “I’m so high…” punchlines like crazy.
For time. Complete all reps of each exercise before moving to the next.
100 pull ups
100 push ups
100 sit ups
100 air squats
Blew my PR out the water by 45 seconds and finished in 18:01. “Yep yep” - Teddy. In related crossfit news, I’m thoroughly obsessed with handstand push ups. Shout to Foundation.
Hahahaha sonned. I love when the hypocrisy of these morons is pointed out so clearly. In their defense, “they are lying sacks of sh*t.” Well said John.
I always love hearing behind the scenes stories about songs, especially when they involve my favorite living MC (RIP Big L), Elzhi. MichiganHipHop.com linked up with El and had him recount some of his classic material, including “Come and Get It,” “Reunion,” “Boomerang Slang,” “Scattered Pictures,” “Hiding Place,” “Motown 25,” “Guessing Game,” “Love It Here,” and “Colors.”
If you haven’t already, cop The Preface! Seattle people: remember that El and Black Milk will be coming to town next week for the Redbull Big Tune. I’ll post up the schedule of events in a few days for y’all…
As always, Jay Smooth is so on point. Between all of the fire and brimstone spewed by Palin, Romney, and Rudy and the 9-11’s, there was one overriding theme: these people have no ideas of their own and have nothing left other than attacking Barack. Besides the fact that we’re all tired of these divisive tactics, last night, Palin crossed the line by disrespecting and belittling community organizers. This is the year when the voters, especially all the new blood registered by the Obama campaign, will step up and change American politics. Goodbye Rove and company. Your days are numbered.
