Haaa, word to the old St. Ides commercials. Be on the lookout for Keelay & Zaire’s album, Ridin’ High, dropping on February 24th on Myx Music. K&Z are some of the illest producers out right now and the guest list is bananas: Phonte, Tash, Blu, Tunji, Cali Agents, Supastition, Darien Brockington, Fortilive, and more. Chyea.

but both are great.
Bale’s rant is so classic and even though that Kermit video of Johnny Cash’s version of “Hurt” is hella old, I just saw it for the first time a few days ago. Saddest song ever + Kermit = awkwardness.
(I already told y’all how I feel about this joint…)
D.A. and Max just dropped the visuals for “She Loves Everybody,” the lead single from their upcoming Love The Future album. The fellas will be going on tour with Lady Gaga in support of the project, and if I remember right, they’ll perform in Seattle on March 16th. I’ll confirm that closer to the date, but there’s your fair warning to catch Chester French before they’re headlining shows of their own.
Yo…I don’t know how I missed this when it first came out, but this is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. SO many quotables. I’m not mad at Andy Samberg at all. He makes some horrible sketches every now and then, but when he hits, it’s [Banya] gold Jerry, GOLD [/Banya].
Excuse I!!!!!!
Rainy day anthem. There are like 20 different mixes to this track, and even though I’m not used to this one yet, Lykke kills it as usual. Seattle folks, I’ll see you at Lykke’s show next month.

He’s back! Thanks to literally one of the only good things Bush ever did, John Forte has been pardoned and is already back in the studio. Here’s a quick little video of John and Talib rocking over Kanye’s “Homecoming.” People may think of John’s verse on “We’re Tryin’ To Stay Alive” and forget his other stuff, but this dude could really rhyme. I hope he picks up right where he left off. Welcome home.
On the same day as the wackness that is the video for “Jumpin’ (Out The Window)” leaked, Raphael shows these dudes what real R&B is supposed to sound like. The Way I See It was one of the more slept on releases of the past year, make sure you’re up on it.
Shout to Perception for the higher quality clip!
K’Naan’s always been dope to me, but it looks like he’s finally getting a real push this year. Here’s the new video for one of my favorite songs of the moment, “ABC’s” featuring the legendary Chubb Rock. Chubb’s flow is so classic and both of ’em kill it.

Fresh off releasing the dope video for “I’ll Be In The Sky” (currently my jam), Bobby Ray is back with some more visuals for “Lonely People.” All my fellow antisocial folks out there understand how this jawn sums up why I always turn down those offers to hit the clubs. No thanks, I’m goooood.
Shout to Bob, Tre, Rich, & TJ…y’all are killing it right now. 2009 is going to be huge.

While I was hoping the latest single from John’s Evolver album would be “Cross The Line,” this one will do pretty nicely. It probably won’t break out on most radio stations, but the video could be perfect for VH1. Plus, us white people do love us some John Legend.
