Drake Says Common's Disses Are A Ploy For...
Will he be responding to Common?
“No. Because despite how it’s been worded by him, that situation is not a ‘hip hop moment’ or a ‘battle for the sake of musical integrity’…it’s a ploy for attention around the release of an album. More than anything it was just disappointing cause what kid isn’t a fan of what Common has done for our genre. A guy who made such an...

The night started off hectic for me. I didn’t even think I was going to make it. But, after making it through some life obstacles, I got there in time to see at least Skrillex. I missed both Dada Life & Benga; I know super womp but hey life happens. No point in crying over spilled milk lolol.
As for the show, Skrillex def did his thing. Last time I saw him live was at last...

Listen to Songs Timbaland and Pharrell Recorded in...
ISH KNOWS…this shit is real cool. Timbo (who went by name of DJ Timmy Tim) and Pharrell (went by name Magnum then) reportedly recorded these tracks their first time ever in a recording studio in 1991. I love the songs they sampled lol. Those are some classic joints! It’s always dope to see the beginnings of guys who are now musical legends. See how their first stuff sounded...

Hill also won best new artist that year, the second time...

Neil Young Angered By 'Sound Of Music Today'
I co-sign his statement 110%. It’s actually pretty funny that EDM (aka electro music lol) is taking over the mainstream yet the quality of the sound is going down the shitter. Reason I say that is b/c technology is such an integral part of EDM yet the technology on the receiving end is low quality and you get a really low % of what you’d hear on the masters. Honestly, the texture,...
