batmon said:i dont recall anything previous You're gonna front on the immortal "We Can Make It Alright" acapella? Nah, I'm kidding. I know what you mean. (I'm sure you're right that Kellz is more the reason, but between you and me, t…

batmon said:vintageinfants said:getting a spot on arguably the best album of the year is a pretty good way to stay relevant. R.Kelly brought him back to Black radio in '05 the same way he did w/ Ronald Isley. Charlie's spot on Snoop's "Beaut…

Jonny_Paycheck said:Faux_Rillz would be proud No kidding. Let's count it off: A rapper (ding!) from another country (ding!) in the pages of a print publication (ding!), asshurt (ding!) about being preempted by the death of a white (ding!) N…

batmon said:Turn the damn lights down. This was one of the first things I noticed. Shit's like an operating room. Was that done for the benefit of filming, or did it really go down like that?

HarveyCanal said:Billy Squier wants it to be him... How you gonna crop out dude's busted white Capezios and slouch socks, though? They cement the look. Shout out to my man Ross Hogg. And to my other man, Mike Damone. WE PACK CHESS KANGZ JU…

Horseleech said:Always tip on the comped drink. there's no legitimate reason not to. I don't know, man. That has been my policy, too, and ordinarily I wouldn't think twice, but at least a couple times in the last couple years I've gotten the hairy…

DOR said: You know what's fucked-up in an oddly culturally-specific way? The anti-gay "Occupy Pedophilia" propaganda video that's expcerpted in this piece uses (at 0:36) the tango fanfare from the Police Academy movies, the same one that played wh…

Good for them. Fuck Gitmo. On a related note: I remember reading an investigative piece in Rolling Stone sometime in the early to mid-nineties about a group of homeless/squatter California teens who were ritualistically torturing and killing …

ppadilha said:US coverage of the olympics seems to have taken an irreversible turn for the worse after the Sydney games I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that, but for whatever reason, Sydney kinda had me open. I guess because I'm more of a sen…
