LUDACRIS-POLITICS (OBAMA IS HERE)

Here is the Ludacris-Obama freestyle that has all the media a buzzin'!



Lyrics:

I'm back on it like I just signed my record deal
Yeah the best is here, the Bentley Coup paint is dripping wet, it got sex appeal
Never should have hated
You never should've doubted him
With a slot in the president's iPod Obama shattered 'em

Said I handled his biz and I'm one of his favorite rappers
Well give Luda a special pardon if I'm ever in the slammer
Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president
Hillary hated on you, so that bitch is irrelevant

Jesse talking slick and apologizing for what?
If you said it then you meant it how you want it have a gut!
And all you other politicians trying to hate on my man,
watch us win a majority vote in every state on my man

You can't stop what's bout to happen, we bout to make history
The first black president is destined and it's meant to be
The threats ain't fazing us, the nooses or the jokes
So get off your ass, black people, it's time to get out and vote!

Paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified
McCain don't belong in any chair unless he's paralyzed
Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped
Ball up all of his speeches and I throw 'em like candy wrap
'cause what you talking I hear nothing even relevant
and you the worst of all 43 presidents

Get out and vote or the end will be near
The world is ready for change because Obama is here!
'cause Obama is here
The world is ready for change because Obama is here!

HOLY MOLEY THE GO! TEAM

Just got done interviewing the Go! Team. The Fox 9 Morning News will run a clip tomorrow morning around 8am - and we will have the entire adventure online tomorrow afterwards. The pic above is the three of us in a conga line. Oh yeah.

Back from Corn Country

Hey I'm back! Took almost a week to recoup from an emergency trip to Iowa. After several visits to the Coralville Target with my sister (lots of Swiffer products purchased), a Margarita induced hotel room karaoke session (in a medieval theme hotel no less), a trunk full of pirate booty and various leather goods (no joke), Medicare is now my family's best friend and I am safe and sound in Minneapolis. Gotta tell you, Mamma Mia helped me recoup. So did the tip from
David Holl about El Guincho. I will post a little more in the morning, but here a video from his fantastic album Alegranza:


And here he is with Architecture in Helsinki:

Fox 9's Battle of the Bands

Here are a couple hip-hop videos from yesteryear! Damn I feel old!

Das Efx- Mic Checka


Tribe Called Quest- Electric Relaxation


Digital Underground- Humpty Dance

New Chemical Brothers "Midnight Madness" Video

This video is crazy!! It's directed by Dom and Nic. Check it!


Also, here is another classic Chemicals video from their last album!

Oh...My...Goth!

Hey Jackass, like raunchy, rude, rock 'n' roll bone-bending stunts and gag-inducing challenges performed to the gnarliest of degree...seen it all before? Not with hot punk Rrriot Grrrls as the players. They truly tread water (also snot, puke and a myriad of bodily fluids) in an ocean of retarded sexuality, but that's just nit picking isn't it? Check out "Rad Girls" on FUSE network, you won't be sorry -- or will you? Either way you can't help but watch. Above is the most safe for work sample I could find. Love you Ramona, Clemmie, Munch!

It must be Pop Music Day on 10K Beats

OH NO! My absolute favorite MTV reality star/boy-bander/flat iron owner Ashley Parker Angel and his model/finance/baby mama, Tiffany Lynn called off their engagement! Shuttle to the 5:45 min mark - barf.
Ashley's rep told Us Weekly, "The two remain close friends as they raise their two-year old son Lyric together."

OMFG! Breaking News!

Madonna is attempting to create the perfect pop trifecta of ALL TIME!!! Britney and Justin on stage - AT THE SAME TIME - with her in Miami during her final performance of the Sticky & Sweet tour. A source at the Sun reports, “Madonna is always trying to raise the bar and Britney and Timberlake on the same stage would be perfect. They have both been asked but I think both are a bit reluctant. Britney would find it all a bit emotional and JT might not fancy it."

Justin, if you are reading this, plleeeeaaaasseeeee request to perform this one together:
