So JT dropped his album today...for those who didn't know or who may be wondering such things. But this post isn't about that...it's about the young lady above obviously!!!! My homegirl here is featured on the track Spanglish which is only on the deluxe edition...so if you're gonna purchase JT's CD, get that version so you can listen to that. If you just wanna hear baby girl above, click on the link below (or maybe you bought the other version and don't want to go back and buy the deluxe edition). And u'll hear more from her soon...so Miss Ashley that means you have to send all your updates, music & show info to me now.
How does a NYC hip hop heavyweight make an LA lifestyle blog...? The Los Angeles Times has the reason why...peep it.
Not the son whose rap name was Hood Surgeon...Eskay has the story.It was only a matter of time before I got to this number...and only a matter of time before Diz made his way to VIMBY...a match made in heaven. Enjoy.
So look what I get sent to my inbox c/o of Ms. Aja aka Ms. OhSooVain herself. Here are a couple pics from the Kidz in the Hall video shoot. Kidz in the Hall were out here in L.A. the weekend of Rock the Bells to shoot a video for Love Hangover with Estelle (American Boy). The video was directed by Ethan Lader, who did their last video (Driving Down the Block). Aja was gettin' busy on the make-up and word is her and DNEZ have a scene in this video. Looked like a good time...I was that close to being in it...but some last minute mishap on my end kept me in the house that day.P.S. When the video is done I'll host it here.
You should already know what time it is if you've been paying attention the last month or so. Whatchu' say Prez?Check it out y'all, It's almost time for the show to start, so this is the last addition to this TGIF weekly series. Don't worry tho because...The Daily Show EP is droppin Friday, September 5th! It's online only and will be available @ www.whateyethought.com. So write down the date and stay tuned cause you're in for one helluva ride! Brought to you commercial FREE by Eighty's Baby Apparel... Lets get straight to the point: This project wasn't just meant to discuss the problems in the current state of hip hop music, it was also meant to offer solutions to these problems. So this is the Prez's 3 point plan to bring us back to the prominent place in music we once deserved to be in, Because...
"It's time to Rap the Vote, Choose it or Lose it/are you in love with the man or in love with the music?/are you in love with this song cause of the words I'm using?/or because I got a well known dude to produce it?/are you in love with the fame or in love with the movement?/cause a ton of myspace hits ain't meaning you moving/you like the dude on the trophy, while my track record's proven/with Def Jams that's longer than the beard on Rick Rubin/"
"...It's election time baby!" -El Prez
An upscale spot to get your weekend going early...early arrival would be your best idea if you're gonna go. Shout out to Upper Echelon.With some other noteworthy west coast appearances...enjoy.
I'm posting this cuz i've known the young man since he was knee high so anything that's keeping his life in the right direction is all good with me. Before B2K my lil homie was ditchin school and gettin' into trouble...now he's doing music with producers like Timbaland. Keep it up young man...HipHopDX has the details.

Don't Forget to keep voting for UNI at www.la.mtv2.com to get them on the VMA's next month.

So GO
As promised that other new track from Diz Gibran. This one is called City Lights. Enjoy.
Okay, Okay this isn't one of the new developments in Los Angeles nor is it one of the places I'm considering in the near future...BUT, if I was to try to describe how I'd like one of my dream homes to look like...it would be this here. It's sick...I'm all into wood and open spaces for a home. Spotted this on Kanye's blog...it's called the Mirindiba House and is by architect Marcio Kogan. Peep it out and let me know what you think.
