Colin Munroe :: Bulletproof Monster (La Roux & Nicki Minaj remix)

La Roux released one of the best mixtapes of the year earlier this summer which was a collaboration with Diplo and Switch called Lazerproof, which was a remix project emphasizing  all that is dub.  It’s no surprise that a few months later, songbird Colin Munroe has released a remix of… well, a remix.  Throw in [...]

Nicki Minaj + Paper Magazine

Nicki Minaj is kind of everywhere all at once.  Reminiscent of other women in music, people either love Nicki to death or hate her with a passion.  Regardless, Miss Minaj has been on the tip of the media’s tongue in the past few months – from her Twitter marriage to Drake to her incredible verse [...]

Raekwon + Kanye West + Justin Bieber :: Runaway (remix)

A few weeks ago, Kanye expressed his love and appreciation for Justin Bieber via his Twitter account – including an open invitation to collaborate together.  Who knew that Raekwon would be involved as well? A few notes: How hard is it for Raekwon to rap over an old Wu-Tang beat?  Where’s the innovation? Justin Bieber [...]

Kanye West announced yesterday that a remix of his latest track, Power will drop tomorrow, which features his non-blood big brother, Mister Carter himself.

Kanye West :: Power (video)

Even if you hate Kanye West, you’ve got to give him a bit of credit for being one of the few mainstream hip hop artists that has been able to create a unparalleled taste in art within everything that he produces outside of the music realm. I remember being SO geeked to learn that ‘Ye [...]

Kanye West :: Coldest Winter (video)

The latest video release from Kanye West‘s 2008′s 808s and Heartbreak is two things:  weird and Kanye-less.    Perhaps this is his final step out of his own ego prison and into the light of an artist?  In all honestly, 808s has remained one of my favorite ‘Ye albums ever because of it’s realness, lack of [...]

Sound Session #239 (12-27-09) :: Best of 2009

I kind of have a dj crush on Dj Hyphen after listening to his best of 2009 mix right here… Did I just say that?  Anyway, be sure to download & check this mix, throw it on your iPod, whatever.  Be sure to check our Sound Session every Sunday evening on Seattle’s Kube93 from 10:45pm [...]

30 Seconds to Mars + Kanye West :: Hurricane

I’m not going to lie.  I have two confessions.  The first is that I know close to nothing about alternative rock post 2000 (which includes 30 Seconds to Mars, which is fronted by Jared Leto, who I was pretty in love with when he was starring in the teen drama My So Called Life).  The [...]

Fergie: Kanye West, gays, and hip hop

Finally, Fergie (of Black Eyed Peas fame) has said something that kind of, sort of makes sense.  In regards to embracing the gay community, she states: Kanye West really did a great thing for hip-hop and made it very mixed and open. (via MTV) Kanye has been pretty vocal about ending homophobia in the hip [...]

Just the Tip + Popular Lemonade Vol. 3 (Roc La Familia)

I’ve been literally waiting on the edge of my seat for another Just the Tip exclusive mix for my PopLemons, and what better way to come correct than a Roc-a-Fella dedicated mix?  Even better, I forgot that some of these tracks even existed.. It’s like Christmas, only better.  Much love & big ups to Just [...]

Drake:: Forever (Feat. Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Eminem)

Directed by Hype Williams This version of the song will appear on the soundtrack to the upcoming LeBron James documentary, More Than a Game, which is scheduled for release this season.  Love the Slaughterhouse appearance during Eminem‘s verse, as it’s been rumored that they will soon join Shady Records.
