I wonder if Jay’s really trying to leak his entire album before it’s set to release in 12 days?  7 our of 15 tracks have been leaked or released by now, which is insane. I’m surprised at how upbeat the J.Cole track was, especially since I was expecting more of a sleeper type track, but [...]

Cali is killing it for me right now, I’ve been steady bumping U-N-I, Pac Div, TiRon all summer long.  I’m super impressed by his beat selection, which is a nice mix of some of the best beats I’ve heard throughout 2009.  Dom Kennedy is quickly becoming one of my most listened to artists.  Plus, I [...]

I feel like I’ve gone full circle with KRS-One, from being a total, 110% fan through the BDP era, into the early to mid-nineties (remember that track with Goldie, anyone?), and somewhere around the time when the Temple of Hip Hop was created, dude straight up lost his mind.  All of a sudden, KRS decided [...]

I’ve been a huge fan of LA artist Mister Cartoon’s traditional art, tattoo work, and graffiti for years so you can imagine my surprise when I found out that he was the next in line for  Montana Colors & Upper Playground’s artist inspired paint cans.  It’s my utter desire to meet this legendary artist and [...]

Just when I was about to lose hope in this season’s Women’s Dunks (really, the paint blots are fucking ugly), Nike offers this nice, eye catching, metallic, gawdy ass hi-top Dunk which should be released within the next few weeks.  I’m sold… minus the red colorway, maybe.  I’m thinking the gold colorway may look fresh [...]

Bill O’Reilly loves hip hop.  Seriously – most of his material since the launch of The O’Reilly Factor in 1996 has aimed to revolutionize liberal thought, which has included attacks against hip hop artists such as Cam’Ron, Nas, Ludacris, Young Jeezy, and Jay-Z.  Bill’s most memorable attack has been on Luda as he called for [...]

      I had the pleasure of meeting Just the Tip (please, don’t blame me for his dj name, I tried for months to have him change it, but apparently, he just doesn’t give a fuck) earlier this year, and he’s been one of my most favorite life additions.  Along with always looking so [...]

I love leaks from the Blueprint 3.  Apparently, even more so than writing about Jay-Z and Drake who have both dominated PopLemon since launch in April. Unlike most of my blog counterparts, I actually like both tracks.  Reminder is sort of reminiscent of post-Reasonable Doubt Jay, although the hook really, really fucking gets on my [...]

    Being a product of the 80s and having most of my fashion sense live somewhere within the 1990′s and 2000′s, I can’t front on LA Gear whatsoever.  I think I’d cop a pair just for the shoe chain, which has been imitated by many but properly executed by few.  Pictured above are the [...]

Wu-Tang Lego: Da Mystery of Chessboxin’ from davo on Vimeo. Probably the best thing I’ve seen all week. Love the commercial ass ninjas.

I call bullshit. When one of your biggest commercial hits to date has a chorus of ‘I want to fuck every girl in the world,’ I have to call your bluff, Drake.  Drake plans to re-release his mixtape So Far Gone on September 15, 2009, which will include an additional promo bonus track for his [...]
